Spectra of the zero-divisor graph of finite rings

Abstract

The zero-divisor graph Γ(R)\Gamma(R) of a ring RR is a graph with nonzero zero-divisors of RR as vertices and distinct vertices x,yx,y are adjacent if xy=0xy=0 or yx=0yx=0. We provide an equivalence relation on a ring RR and express Γ(R)\Gamma(R) as a generalized join of graphs on equivalence classes of this relation. We determined the adjacency and Lapalcian spectra of Γ(R)\Gamma(R) when RR is a finite semisimple ring.
