The zero-divisor graph $\Gamma(R)$ of a ring $R$ is a graph with nonzero zero-divisors of $R$ as vertices and distinct vertices $x,y$ are adjacent if $xy=0$ or $yx=0$. We provide an equivalence relation on a ring $R$ and express $\Gamma(R)$…

For a ring $R$, the zero-divisor graph is a simple graph $\Gamma(R)$ whose vertex set is the set of all non-zero zero-divisors in a ring $R$, and two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $xy=0$ or $yx=0$ in $R$. By…

In this paper, we relate the seemingly unrelated concepts of treewidth and boxicity. Our main result is that, for any graph G, boxicity(G) <= treewidth(G) + 2. We also show that this upper bound is (almost) tight. Our result leads to…

This paper introduces a new approach to associating a graph with a commutative ring. Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. The unit-zero divisor graph of a commutative ring $R$, denoted by $G_{UZ}(R)$, offers a novel framework for…

Let $R$ be a ring with involution $*$ and $Z^*(R)$ denotes the set of all non-zero zero-divisors of $R$. We associate a simple (undirected) graph $\Gamma'(R)$ with vertex set $Z^*(R)$ and two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent in…

Let $\Gamma(\mathbb{Z}_n[i])$ be the zero divisor graph over the ring $\mathbb{Z}_n[i]$. In this article, we study pancyclic properties of $\Gamma(\mathbb{Z}_n[i])$ and $\overline{\Gamma(\mathbb{Z}_n[i])}$ for different $n$. Also, we prove…

We study the zero divisor graph determined by equivalence classes of zero divisors of a commutative Noetherian ring R. We demonstrate how to recover information about R from this structure. In particular, we determine how to identify…

Let $X$ be a simplicial complex on vertex set $V$. We say that $X$ is $d$-representable if it is isomorphic to the nerve of a family of convex sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We define the $d$-boxicity of $X$ as the minimal $k$ such that $X$ can be…

For any graph $G=(V,E)$, a subset $S\subseteq V$ \emph{dominates} $G$ if all vertices are contained in the closed neighborhood of $S$, that is $N[S]=V$. The minimum cardinality over all such $S$ is called the domination number, written…

In this article, we discussed the zero-divisor graph of a commutative ring with identity $\mathbb{F}_p+u\mathbb{F}_p+u^2 \mathbb{F}_p$ where $u^3=0$ and $p$ is an odd prime. We find the clique number, chromatic number, vertex connectivity,…

The three well-known graph classes, planar graphs (P), series-parallel graphs(SP) and outer planar graphs(OP) satisfy the following proper inclusion relation: OP C SP C P. It is known that box(G) <= 3 if G belongs to P and box(G) <= 2 if G…

The smallest set of vertices needed to differentiate or categorize every other vertex in a graph is referred to as the graph's metric dimension. Finding the class of graphs for a particular given metric dimension is an NP-hard problem. This…

The cozero-divisor graph of a commutative ring $R$, denoted $\Gamma'(R)$, is the graph whose vertices are the non-zero and non-unit elements of $R$, with two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ adjacent if and only if $x \notin Ry$ and $y \notin…

Inspired by a very recent work of A. {\DH}uri\'c, S. Jev{\dj}eni\'c and N. Stopar, we introduce a new definition of zero-divisor graphs attached to rings, that includes all of the classical definitions already known in the literature. We…

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…

Introduced by Albertson et al. \cite{albertson}, the distinguishing number $D(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the least integer $r$ such that there is a $r$-labeling of the vertices of $G$ that is not preserved by any nontrivial automorphism of $G$.…

This article investigates multiset dimensions in zero divisor graphs (ZD-graphs) associated with rings. Through rigorous analysis, we establish general bounds for the multiset dimension (Mdim) in ZD-graphs, exploring various commutative…

Let $\mathcal{G} = (\mathcal{V}, \mathcal{E})$ be a simple graph, an $L(2,1)$-labeling of $\mathcal{G}$ is an assignment of labels from nonnegative integers to vertices of $\mathcal{G}$ such that adjacent vertices get labels which differ by…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph and let $A_G$ be the clique-vertex incidence matrix of $G$. It is well known that $G$ is perfect iff the system $A_{_G}\mathbf x\le \mathbf 1$, $\mathbf x\ge\mathbf0$ is totally dual integral (TDI). In 1982, Cameron…
