The unitary Cayley graph $X_n$ has vertex set $Z_n=\{0,1, \ldots ,n-1\}$. Vertices $a, b$ are adjacent, if gcd$(a-b,n)=1$. For $X_n$ the chromatic number, the clique number, the independence number, the diameter and the vertex connectivity are determined. We decide on the perfectness of $X_n$ and show that all nonzero eigenvalues of $X_n$ are integers dividing the value $\varphi(n)$ of the Euler function.

Let \({E}_{n}\) be the ring of Eisenstein integers modulo \(n\). We denote by \(G({E}_{n})\) and \(G_{{E}_{n}}\), the unit graph and the unitary Cayley graph of \({E}_{n}\), respectively. In this paper, we obtain the value of the diameter, the girth, the clique number and the chromatic number of these graphs. We also prove that for each \(n>1\), the graphs \(G(E_{n})\) and \(G_{E_{n}}\) are Hamiltonian.

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 [Formula: see text] be a ring with identity. The unitary Cayley graph of [Formula: see text] is the simple graph with vertex set [Formula: see text], where two distinct vertices [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are linked by an edge if and only if [Formula: see text] is a unit of [Formula: see text]. A graph is said to be planar if it can be drawn on the plane in such a way that its edges intersect only at their endpoints. In this paper, we completely characterize the rings whose unitary Cayley graphs are planar.

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: $$ n(\log_e n -\Theta(1)) \le \chi({\rm NC}_n) \le n (\lceil\log_2 n\rceil-1). $$

The unitary Cayley graph Xn has the vertex set Zn = {0,1,2,..., n-1} and vertices a and b are adjacent, if and only if gcd(a-b,n) = 1. In this paper, we present some properties of the clique, independence and distance polynomials of the unitary Cayley graphs and generalize some of the results from [W. Klotz, T. Sander, Some properties of unitary Cayley graphs, Electr. J. Comb. 14 (2007), #R45]. In addition, using some properties of Laplacian polynomial we determine the number of minimal spanning trees of any unitary Cayley graph.

Let $R$ be a ring with identity. The unitary Cayley graph of a ring $R$, denoted by $G_{R}$, is the graph, whose vertex set is $R$, and in which $\{x,y\}$ is an edge if and only if $x-y$ is a unit of $R$. In this paper we find chromatic, clique and independence number of $G_{R}$, where $R$ is a finite ring. Also, we prove that if $G_{R} \simeq G_{S}$, then $G_{R/J_{R}} \simeq G_{S/J_{S}}$, where $\rm J_{R}$ and $\rm J_{S}$ are Jacobson radicals of $R$ and $S$, respectively. Moreover, we prove if $G_{R} \simeq G_{M_{n}(F)}$ then $R\simeq M_{n}(F)$, where $R$ is a ring and $F$ is a finite field. Finally, let $R$ and $S$ be finite commutative rings, we show that if $G_{R} \simeq G_{S}$, then $\rm R/ {J}_{R}\simeq S/J_{S}$.

AbstractThe unitary Cayley graph of a ringR, denoted Γ(R), is the simple graph defined on all elements ofR, and where two verticesxandyare adjacent if and only ifx−yis a unit inR. The largest distance between all pairs of vertices of a graphGis called the diameter ofGand is denoted by diam(G). It is proved that for each integern≥ 1, there exists a ringRsuch that diam(Γ(R)) =n. We also show that diam(Γ(R)) ∊ {1, 2, 3,∞} for a ringRwithR/J(R) self-injective and classify all those rings with diam(Γ(R)) = 1, 2, 3, and ∞, respectively.

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.
