The power graph $\mathcal P_G$ of a finite group $G$ is the graph with the vertex set $G$, where two elements are adjacent if one is a power of the other. We first show that $\mathcal P_G$ has an transitive orientation, so it is a perfect…

The crossing number of a graph $G$ is the least number of crossings over all possible drawings of $G$. We present a structural characterization of graphs with crossing number one.

We construct infinite families of graphs that are determined by their generalized spectrum. This construction is based on new formulae for the determinant of the walk matrix of a graph. The graphs constructed here all satisfy a lower…

The concept of graph compositions is related to several number theoretic concepts, including partitions of positive integers and the cardinality of the power set of finite sets. This paper examines graph compositions where the total number…

For a given graph consider a pair of disjoint matchings the union of which contains as many edges as possible. Furthermore, consider the relation of the cardinalities of a maximum matching and the largest matching in those pairs. It is…

We study the commuting graph of $n\times n$ matrices over the field of $p$-adics $\mathbb{Q}_p$, whose vertices are non-scalar $n\times n$ matrices with entries in $\mathbb{Q}_p$ and whose edges connect pairs of matrices that commute under…

We will give a short proof of the fact that if the algebraic closure of a field $\mathbb F$ is a finite extension, then for $n\geq 3$ the commuting graph $\Gamma(M_n(\mathbb F))$ is connected and its diameter is four.

Centrality describes the importance of nodes in a graph and is modeled by various measures. Its global analogue, called centralization, is a general formula for calculating a graph-level centrality score based on the node-level centrality…

For a group $H$ and a non empty subset $\Gamma\subseteq H$, the commuting graph $G=\mathcal{C}(H,\Gamma)$ is the graph with $\Gamma$ as the node set and where any $x,y \in \Gamma$ are joined by an edge if $x$ and $y$ commute in $H$. We…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and let $I$ be an ideal of $R$. Let $R\Join I$ be the subring of $R\times R$ consisting of the elements $(r,r+i)$ for $r\in R$ and $i\in I$. We study the diameter and girth of the zero-divisor…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. Let $\Gamma(R)$ be a graph with vertices as elements of $R$, where two distinct vertices $a$ and $b$ are adjacent if and only if $Ra+Rb=R$. In this paper we consider a subgraph $\Gamma_2(R)$ of…

In this article we consider commuting graphs of involution conjugacy classes in the affine Weyl group of type $\tilde C_n$. We show that where the graph is connected the diameter is at most $n+2$.

We classify finite groups in which the centralisers of certain non-central elements are soluble. This includes a full structural description of groups whose non-central element centralisers are all soluble, and a reduction theorem for the…

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 $G$ be a finite non abelian group. The centralizer graph of $G$ is a simple undirected graph $\Gamma_{cent}(G)$, whose vertices are the proper centralizers of $G$ and two vertices are adjacent if and only if their cardinalities are…

Let the join of two graphs be the union of two disjoint graphs connected by $j$ edges in a one-to-one manner. In previous work by Gyurov and Pinzon, which generalized the results of Badura and Rara, the determinant of the adjacency matrix…

We introduce the notion of a move graph, that is, a directed graph whose vertex set is a $\mathbb Z$-module $\mathbb Z_n^m$, and whose arc set is uniquely determined by the action $M\!:\!\mathbb Z_n^m\to \mathbb Z_n^m$ where $M$ is an…

A non-commuting graph of a finite group $G$ is a graph whose vertices are non-central elements of $G$ and two vertices are adjacent if they don't commute in $G$. In this paper, we study the non-commuting graph of the group $U_{6n}$ and…

In this paper, we consider various graphs, namely: power graph, cyclic graph, enhanced power graph and commuting graph, on a finite semigroup $S$. For an arbitrary pair of these four graphs, we classify finite semigroups such that the…

Let $G$ be a group. The power graph of $G$ is a graph with vertex set $G$ in which two distinct elements $x,y$ are adjacent if one of them is a power of the other. We characterize all groups whose power graphs have finite independence…
