Zero-dimensionality in commutative rings

On quasi-zero divisor graphs of non-commutative rings

Let $R$ be an associative ring with identity. A ring $R$ is called reversible if $ab=0$, then $ba=0$ for $a,bin R$. The quasi-zero-divisor graph of $R$, denoted by $Gamma^*(R)$ is an undirected graph with all nonzero zero-divisors of $R$ as vertex set and two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if there exists $0neq rin R setminus (mathrm{ann}(x) cup mathrm{ann}(y))$ such tha...

Zero Divisor Graphs of Commutative Rings

In this paper we will investigate the interactions between the zero divisor graph, the annihilator class graph, and the associate class graph of commutative rings.

We would also like to thank Dr. Michael Axtell for his help and guidance, as well as Darrin Weber f...

Zero-dimensional Subrings of Commutative Rings

We consider various conditions of the sets of zero-dimensional, Artinian, and von Neumann regular subrings of a commutative ring. Section 1 treats questions of existence of such rings, Section 2 deals with the situation in which all subrings belong to one of the three classes, and Section 3 is concerned with the behavior of the sets under intersection. In Section 4 we give a brief survey of som...

Zero-Divisor Graph of Triangular Matrix Rings over Commutative Rings

Let R be a noncommutative ring. The zero-divisor graph of R, denoted by Γ(R), is the (directed) graph with vertices Z(R)∗ = Z(R)− {0}, the set of nonzero zero-divisors of R, and for distinct x, y ∈ Z(R)∗, there is an edge x → y if and only if xy = 0. In this paper we investigate the zero-divisor graph of triangular matrix rings over commutative rings. Mathematics Subject Classification: 16S70; ...
