AbstractLet R be a commutative ring with non-zero identity. In this paper, we introduce theweakly nilpotent graph of a commutative ring. The weakly nilpotent graph of R denoted by Γw(R) is a graph with the vertex set R* and two vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if x y ∊ N(R)*, where R* = R \ {0} and N(R)* is the set of all non-zero nilpotent elements of R. In this article, we determine the diameter of weakly nilpotent graph of an Artinian ring. We prove that if Γw(R) is a forest, then Γw(R) is a union of a star and some isolated vertices. We study the clique number, the chromatic number, and the independence number of Γw(R). Among other results, we show that for an Artinian ring R, Γw(R) is not a disjoint union of cycles or a unicyclic graph. For Artinan rings, we determine diam . Finally, we characterize all commutative rings R for which is a cycle, where is the complement of the weakly nilpotent graph of R.

Let R be a commutative ring with nonzero identity. Then the Jacobson graph of R, denoted by 𝔍R, is defined as a graph with vertex set R\J(R) such that two distinct vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if 1 - xy is not a unit of R. We obtain some graph theoretical properties of 𝔍R including its connectivity, planarity and perfectness and we compute some of its numerical invariants, namely diameter, girth, dominating number, independence number and vertex chromatic number and give an estimate for its edge chromatic number.

Let [Formula: see text] be a ring (not necessarily commutative) with identity. The clean graph [Formula: see text] of a ring [Formula: see text] is a graph with vertices in form [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is an idempotent and [Formula: see text] is a unit of [Formula: see text]; and two distinct vertices [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are adjacent if and only if [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we focus on [Formula: see text], the subgraph of [Formula: see text] induced by the set [Formula: see text] is a nonzero idempotent element of [Formula: see text]. It is observed that [Formula: see text] has a crucial role in [Formula: see text]. The clique number, the chromatic number, the independence number and the domination number of the clean graph for some classes of rings are determined. Moreover, the connectedness and the diameter of [Formula: see text] are studied.

Two sets are non-crossing if they are disjoint or one contains the other. The non-crossing graph ${\rm NC}_n$ is the graph whose vertex set is the set of nonempty subsets of $[n]=\{1,\ldots,n\}$ with an edge between any two non-crossing sets. Various facts, some new and some already known, concerning the chromatic number, fractional chromatic number, independence number, clique number and clique cover number of this graph are presented. For the chromatic number of this graph we show: $$ n(\log_e n -\Theta(1)) \le \chi({\rm NC}_n) \le n (\lceil\log_2 n\rceil-1). $$

We determine the exact and asymptotic number of unlabeled outerplanar graphs. The exact number $g_{n}$ of unlabeled outerplanar graphs on $n$ vertices can be computed in polynomial time, and $g_{n}$ is asymptotically $g\, n^{-5/2}\rho^{-n}$, where $g\approx0.00909941$ and $\rho^{-1}\approx7.50360$ can be approximated. Using our enumerative results we investigate several statistical properties of random unlabeled outerplanar graphs on $n$ vertices, for instance concerning connectedness, the chromatic number, and the number of edges. To obtain the results we combine classical cycle index enumeration with recent results from analytic combinatorics.

We introduce the signless 1-Laplacian and the dual Cheeger constant on simplicial complexes.  The connection of its spectrum to the combinatorial properties like independence number,  chromatic number and dual Cheeger constant is investigated. Our estimates  can be comparable to Hoffman's bounds on Laplacian eigenvalues of simplicial complexes. An interesting inequality involving multiplicity of the largest eigenvalue, independence number and chromatic number is provided, which could be regarded as a variant version of Lovász sandwich theorem. Also, the behavior of 1-Laplacian under the topological operations of wedge and duplication of motifs is studied. The Courant nodal domain theorem in spectral theory is extended to the setting of signless 1-Laplacian on complexes.

$\Gamma (SL_{X})$ is defined and has been investigated in (Toker, 2016). In this paper our main aim is to extend this study over  $\Gamma (SL_{X})$ to the tensor product. The diameter, radius, girth, domination number, independence number, clique number, chromatic number and chromatic index of $\Gamma (SL_{X_{1}})\otimes \Gamma (SL_{X_{2}})$ has been established. Moreover, we have determined when $\Gamma (SL_{X_{1}})\otimes \Gamma (SL_{X_{2}})$ is a perfect graph.
