The commuting graph $\mathcal{C}(G,X)$, where $G$ is a group and $X$ is a subset of $G$, is the graph with vertex set $X$ and distinct vertices being joined by an edge whenever they commute. Here the diameter of $\mathcal{C}(G,X)$ is studied when $G$ is a symmetric group and $X$ a conjugacy class of elements of order $3$.

The commuting graph ${\cal C}(G,X)$, where $G$ is a group and $X$ a subset of $G$, has $X$ as its vertex set with two distinct elements of $X$ joined by an edge when they commute in $G$. Here the diameter and disc structure of ${\cal C}(G,X)$ is investigated when $G$ is the symmetric group and $X$ a conjugacy class of $G$.

A commuting graph is a graph denoted by C ( G , X ) where G is any group and X, a subset of a group G, is a set of vertices for C ( G , X ) . Two distinct vertices, x , y ∈ X , will be connected by an edge if the commutativity property is satisfied or x y = y x . This study presents results for the connectivity of C ( G , X ) when G is a symmetric group of degree n, Sym ( n ) , and X is a conjugacy class of elements of order three in G.

Topological indices are the numerical values that can be calculated from a graph and it is calculated based on the molecular graph of a chemical compound. It is often used in chemistry to analyse the physical properties of the molecule which can be represented as a graph with a set of vertices and edges. Meanwhile, the non-commuting graph is the graph of vertex set whose vertices are non-central elements and two distinct vertices are joined by an edge if they do not commute. The symmetric group, denoted as S_n, is a set of all permutation under composition. In this paper, two of the topological indices, namely the Wiener index and the Zagreb index of the non-commuting graph for symmetric groups of order 6 and 24 are determined. Keywords: Wiener index; Zagreb index; non-commuting graph; symmetric groups

For a group $G$ and $X$ a subset of $G$ the commuting graph of $G$ on $X$, denoted by $\cal{C}(G,X)$, is the graph whose vertex set is $X$ with $x,y\in X$ joined by an edge if $x\neq y$ and $x$ and $y$ commute. If the elements in $X$ are involutions, then $\cal{C}(G,X)$ is called a commuting involution graph. This paper studies $\cal{C}(G,X)$ when $G$ is a 3-dimensional projective special unitary group and $X$ a $G$-conjugacy class of involutions, determining the diameters and structure of the discs of these graphs.

Let [Formula: see text] be a non-abelian finite group and [Formula: see text] be the center of [Formula: see text]. The non-commuting graph, [Formula: see text], associated to [Formula: see text] is the graph whose vertex set is [Formula: see text] and two distinct vertices [Formula: see text] are adjacent if and only if [Formula: see text]. We conjecture that if [Formula: see text] is an almost simple group and [Formula: see text] is a non-abelian finite group such that [Formula: see text], then [Formula: see text]. Among other results, we prove that if [Formula: see text] is a certain almost simple group and [Formula: see text] is a non-abelian group with isomorphic non-commuting graphs, then [Formula: see text].

Abstract - Let G􀡳 be a non- abelian finite group. The non-commuting graph ,􀪡is defined as a graph with a vertex set􀡳 − G-Z(G)􀢆in which two vertices x􀢞 and y􀢟 are joined if and only if xy􀢞􀢟 ≠ yx􀢟􀢞.  In this paper, we invest some results on the number of edges set , the degree of avertex of non-commuting graph and the number of conjugacy classes of a finite group. In order that if 􀪡􀡳non-commuting graph of H ≅ non - commuting graph of G􀪡􀡴,H 􀡴 is afinite group, then |G􀡳| = |H􀡴| .

For a nilpotent group $G$, let $\Xi(G)$ be the difference between the complement of the generating graph of $G$ and the commuting graph of $G$, with vertices corresponding to central elements of $G$ removed. That is, $\Xi(G)$ has vertex set $G \setminus Z(G)$, with two vertices adjacent if and only if they do not commute and do not generate $G$. Additionally, let $\Xi^+(G)$ be the subgraph of $\Xi(G)$ induced by its non-isolated vertices. We show that if $\Xi(G)$ has an edge, then $\Xi^+(G)$ is connected with diameter $2$ or $3$, with $\Xi(G) = \Xi^+(G)$ in the diameter $3$ case. In the infinite case, our results apply more generally, to any group with every maximal subgroup normal. When $G$ is finite, we explore the relationship between the structures of $G$ and $\Xi(G)$ in more detail.

The commuting graph of a group $G$ is an undirected graph whose vertices are non-central elements of $G$ and two distinct vertices $x,y$ are adjacent if and only if $xy=yx$. This article deals with the properties of the commuting graphs of Sylow $p$-subgroups of the symmetric groups. We define conditions of connectedness of respective graphs and give estimations of the diameters if graph is connected.
