In this paper, two outwardly different graphs, namely, the zero-divisor graph [Formula: see text] and comaximal of ring all real-valued continuous functions having countable range, defined on any zero-dimensional space text], are investigated. It is observed that these graphs exhibit resemblance, so far as diameters, girths, connectedness, triangulatedness or hypertriangulatedness concerned. Ho...

Ž . Ž . Let R be a commutative ring with 1 and let Z R be its set of Ž . Ž . zero-divisors. We associate a simple graph G R to R with vertices Ž . Ž . 4 Z R * s Z R y 0 , the set of nonzero zero-divisors of R, and for disŽ . tinct x, y g Z R *, the vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if xy s 0. Ž . Thus G R is the empty graph if and only if R is an integral domain. The main object of this...

a positive solution of the problem of the existence of nontrivial pairs of zero-divisors in group rings of free burnside groups of sufficiently large odd periods $n>10^{10}$ obtained previously by s. v. ivanov and r. mikhailov extended to all odd periods $ngeq 665$‎.

We determine the number of edges of the zero-divisor graph of the direct product of finitely many finite non-commutative rings or semigoups.

Many authors studied the graph theory in connection with commutative semigroups and commutative and noncommutative rings as we can refer to references. For example, Beck 1 associated to any commutative ring R its zero-divisor graph G R whose vertices are the zero-divisors of R including 0 , with two vertices a, b joined by an edge in case ab 0. Also, DeMeyer et al. 2 defined the zero-divisor gr...
