Let $2\le k\in\mathbb{Z}$. A total coloring of a$k$-regular simple graph via $k+1$ colors is an efficient total coloring if each color yields an efficient dominating set, where the efficient domination condition applies to the restriction…
In this paper, we characterize the class of {\em contraction perfect} graphs which are the graphs that remain perfect after the contraction of any edge set. We prove that a graph is contraction perfect if and only if it is perfect and the…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. We introduce a novel bipartite graph $\mathcal{B}(R)$, the \textit{bipartite zero-divisor--unit graph}, whose vertex set is the disjoint union of the nonzero zero-divisors $Z(R)^*$ and the unit…
Let $G$ be a graph. We say that $G$ is perfectly divisible if for each induced subgraph $H$ of $G$, $V(H)$ can be partitioned into $A$ and $B$ such that $H[A]$ is perfect and $\omega(H[B])<\omega(H)$. We use $P_t$ and $C_t$ to denote a path…
Let $R$ and $S$ be commutative rings with identity, $f:R\to S$ a ring homomorphism and $J$ an ideal of $S$. Then the subring $R\bowtie^fJ:=\{(r,f(r)+j)\mid r\in R$ and $j\in J\}$ of $R\times S$ is called the amalgamation of $R$ with $S$…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a connected, finite undirected graph. A set $S \subseteq V$ is said to be a total dominating set of $G$ if every vertex in $V$ is adjacent to some vertex in $S$. The total domination number, $\gamma_{t}(G)$, is the minimum…

Let $G = (V,E)$ be a simple, undirected and connected graph. A connected (total) dominating set $S \subseteq V$ is a secure connected (total) dominating set of $G$, if for each $ u \in V \setminus S$, there exists $v \in S$ such that $uv…
For a commutative ring $R,$ with non-zero zero divisors $Z^{\ast}(R)$. The zero divisor graph $\Gamma(R)$ is a simple graph with vertex set $Z^{\ast}(R)$, and two distinct vertices $x,y\in V(\Gamma(R))$ are adjacent if and only if $x\cdot…
Let $R$ be a finite commutative ring with $1\ne 0$. In this article, we study the total graph of $R$, denoted by $\tau (R)$, determine some of its basic graph-theoretical properties, determine when it is Eulerian, and find some conditions…
A subset $M$ of the edges of a graph $G$ is a matching if no two edges in $M$ are incident. A maximal matching is a matching that is not contained in a larger matching. A subset $S$ of vertices of a graph $G$ with no isolated vertices is a…
In this paper we study zero--divisor graphs of rings and semirings. We show that all zero--divisor graphs of (possibly noncommutative) semirings are connected and have diameter less than or equal to 3. We characterize all acyclic…
A subset $C$ of the vertex set of a graph $\Gamma$ is said to be $(a,b)$-regular if $C$ induces an $a$-regular subgraph and every vertex outside $C$ is adjacent to exactly $b$ vertices in $C$. In particular, if $C$ is an $(a,b)$-regular set…
For an artinian ring $R$, the directed zero-divisor graph $\Gamma(R)$ is connected if and only if there is no proper one-sided identity element in $R$. Sinks and sources are characterized and clarified for finite ring $R$, especially, it is…
An identifying code of a closed-twin-free graph $G$ is a dominating set $S$ of vertices of $G$ such that any two vertices in $G$ have a distinct intersection between their closed neighborhoods and $S$. It was conjectured that there exists…
A totally silver coloring of a graph G is a k--coloring of G such that for every vertex v \in V(G), each color appears exactly once on N[v], the closed neighborhood of v. A totally silver graph is a graph which admits a totally silver…
For a finite group $G$, let $\Delta(G)$ denote the character graph built on the set of degrees of the irreducible complex characters of $G$. In graph theory, a perfect graph is a graph $\Gamma$ in which the chromatic number of every induced…

Graphs defined over a finite ring are well-studied in the literature. Due to their nature, these types of graphs connect several branches of mathematics, including algebra, number theory, matrix theory, and representation theory. In recent…
