Given a directed graph $D$, a set $S \subseteq V(D)$ is a total dominating set of $D$ if each vertex in $D$ has an in-neighbor in $S$. The total domination number of $D$, denoted $\gamma_t(D)$, is the minimum cardinality among all total…

The present work aims to exploit the interplay between the algebraic properties of rings and the graph-theoretic structures of their associated graphs. We introduce commutatively closed graphs and investigate properties of commutatively…

For a graph $G=(V,E)$, we call a subset $ S\subseteq V \cup E$ a total mixed dominating set of $G$ if each element of $V \cup E$ is either adjacent or incident to an element of $S$, and the total mixed domination number $\gamma_{tm}(G)$ of…

In this paper, we introduce a family of graphs which is a generalization of zero-divisor graphs and compute an upper-bound for the diameter of such graphs. We also investigate their cycles and cores.

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unity and $Z(R)$ and ${\rm Reg}(R)$ be the set of zero-divisors and non-zero zero-divisors of $R$, respectively. We denote by $T(\Gamma(R))$, the total graph of $R$, a simple graph with the vertex set $R$…

In this article we introduce the zero-divisor graphs $\Gamma_\mathscr{P}(X)$ and $\Gamma^\mathscr{P}_\infty(X)$ of the two rings $C_\mathscr{P}(X)$ and $C^\mathscr{P}_\infty(X)$; here $\mathscr{P}$ is an ideal of closed sets in $X$ and…

Inspired by the work in \cite{sauer} regarding the classification of all the zero-divisor graphs with six vertices, we obtain all the zero-divisor graphs with seven vertices. Hence we classify all the zero-divisor commutative semigroups…

We describe and present a new construction method for codes using encodings from group rings. They consist primarily of two types: zero-divisor and unit-derived codes. Previous codes from group rings focused on ideals; for example cyclic…

Nonlocal metric dimension ${\rm dim}_{\rm n\ell}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is introduced as the cardinality of a smallest nonlocal resolving set, that is, a set of vertices which resolves each pair of non-adjacent vertices of $G$. Graphs $G$ with…

Let $R$ be a factorial domain. In this work we investigate the connections between the arithmetic of ${\rm Int}(R)$ (i.e., the ring of integer-valued polynomials over $R$) and its monadic submonoids (i.e., monoids of the form $\{g\in {\rm…

This paper studies the co-maximal graph $\Om(R)$, the induced subgraph $\G(R)$ of $\Om(R)$ whose vertex set is $R\setminus (U(R)\cup J(R))$ and a retract $\G_r(R)$ of $\G(R)$, where $R$ is a commutative ring. We show that the core of…

In a directed graph $D$, a vertex subset $S\subseteq V$ is a total dominating set if every vertex of $D$ has an in-neighbor from $S$. A total dominating set exists if and only if every vertex has at least one in-neighbor. We call the…
