AbstractLet 𝒭 be a commutative ring with identity and 𝒜(𝒭) be the set of ideals with non-zero annihilator. The strongly annihilating-ideal graph of 𝒭 is defined as the graph SAG(𝒭) with the vertex set 𝒜 (𝒭)* = 𝒜 (𝒭) \{0} and two distinct vertices I and J are adjacent if and only if I ∩ Ann(J) ≠ (0) and J ∩ Ann(I) ≠ (0). In this paper, we study the metric dimension of SAG(𝒭) and some metric dimension formulae for strongly annihilating-ideal graphs are given.

Let [Formula: see text] be a commutative ring with unity [Formula: see text]. The annihilating-ideal graph of [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text], is defined to be the graph with vertex set [Formula: see text] — the set of non-zero annihilating ideals of [Formula: see text] and two distinct vertices [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] adjacent if and only if [Formula: see text]. Some connections between annihilating-ideal graphs and zero divisor graphs are given. We characterize the prime ideals (or equivalently maximal ideals) of [Formula: see text] in terms of their degrees as vertices of [Formula: see text]. We also obtain the metric dimension of annihilating-ideal graphs of commutative rings.

AbstractLet R be a commutative ring with Z*(R) as the set of non-zero zero divisors. The zero divisor graph of R, denoted by Γ(R), is the graph whose vertex set is Z*(R), where two distinct vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if xy = 0. In this paper, we investigate the metric dimension dim(Γ(R)) and upper dimension dim+(Γ(R)) of zero divisor graphs of commutative rings. For zero divisor graphs Γ(R) associated to finite commutative rings R with unity 1 ≠ 0, we conjecture that dim+(Γ(R)) = dim(Γ(R)), with one exception that {\rm{R}} \cong \Pi {\rm\mathbb{Z}}_2^{\rm{n}}, n ≥ 4. We prove that this conjecture is true for several classes of rings. We also provide combinatorial formulae for computing the metric and upper dimension of zero divisor graphs of certain classes of commutative rings besides giving bounds for the upper dimension of zero divisor graphs of rings.

Let [Formula: see text] be a commutative ring with nonzero identity. The annihilator graph of [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text], is the (undirected) graph whose vertex set is the set of all nonzero zero-divisors of [Formula: see text] and two distinct vertices [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are adjacent if and only if [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we study the metric dimension of annihilator graphs associated with commutative rings and some metric dimension formulae for annihilator graphs are given.

The intersection graph ITΓ(R) of gamma sets in the total graph TΓ(R) of a commutative ring R, is the undirected graph with vertex set as the collection of all γ-sets in the total graph of R and two distinct vertices u and v are adjacent if and only if u ∩ v ≠ ∅. Tamizh Chelvam and Asir [The intersection graph of gamma sets in the total graph I, to appear in J. Algebra Appl.] studied about ITΓ(R) where R is a commutative Artin ring. In this paper, we continue our interest on ITΓ(R) and actually we study about Eulerian, Hamiltonian and pancyclic nature of ITΓ(R). Further, we focus on certain graph theoretic parameters of ITΓ(R) like the independence number, the clique number and the connectivity of ITΓ(R). Also, we obtain both vertex and edge chromatic numbers of ITΓ(R). In fact, it is proved that if R is a finite commutative ring, then χ(ITΓ(R)) = ω(ITΓ(R)). Having proved that ITΓ(R) is weakly perfect for all finite commutative rings, we further characterize all finite commutative rings for which ITΓ(R) is perfect. In this sequel, we characterize all commutative Artin rings for which ITΓ(R) is of class one (i.e. χ′(ITΓ(R)) = Δ(ITΓ(R))). Finally, it is proved that the vertex connectivity and edge connectivity of ITΓ(R) are equal to the degree of any vertex in ITΓ(R).

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 R be a commutative ring and 𝔸(R) be the set of ideals with non-zero annihilators. The annihilating-ideal graph of R is defined as the graph 𝔸𝔾(R) with the vertex set 𝔸(R)* = 𝔸(R)\{(0)} and two distinct vertices I and J are adjacent if and only if IJ = (0). Here, we present some results on the clique number and the chromatic number of the annihilating-ideal graph of a commutative ring. It is shown that if R is an Artinian ring and ω (𝔸𝔾(R)) = 2, then R is Gorenstein. Also, we investigate commutative rings whose annihilating-ideal graphs are complete or bipartite.

Let R be a commutative ring with nonzero identity. The cozero-divisor graph of R, denoted by Γ′(R), is a graph with vertex-set W*(R), which is the set of all nonzero and non-unit elements of R, and two distinct vertices a and b in W*(R) are adjacent if and only if a ∉ Rb and b ∉ Ra. In this paper, we characterize all finite commutative rings R such that Γ′(R) is planar, outerplanar or ring graph.

Let R be a commutative ring with identity. The nilpotent graph of R, denoted by ΓN(R), is a graph with vertex set [Formula: see text], and two vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if xy is nilpotent, where [Formula: see text] is nilpotent, for some y ∈ R*}. In this paper, we determine all isomorphism classes of finite commutative rings with identity whose ΓN(R) has genus one.
