A VARIATION OF ZERO-DIVISOR GRAPHS
Journal Title: Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications - Year 2015, Vol 35, Issue 2
Abstract
In this paper, we define a new graph for a ring with unity by extending the definition of the usual ‘zero-divisor graph’. For a ring R with unity, Γ1(R) is defined to be the simple undirected graph having all non-zero elements of R as its vertices and two distinct vertices x, y are adjacent if and only if either xy = 0 or yx = 0 or x + y is a unit. We consider the conditions of connectedness and show that for a finite commutative ring R with unity, Γ1(R) is connected if and only if R is not isomorphic to Z3 or Zk2 (for any k ∈ N − {1}). Then we characterize the rings R for which Γ1(R) realizes some well-known classes of graphs, viz., complete graphs, star graphs, paths (i.e., Pn), or cycles (i.e., Cn). We then look at different graph-theoretical properties of the graph Γ1(F), where F is a finite field. We also find all possible Γ1(R) graphs with at most 6 vertices.

WEAK-HYPERLATTICES DERIVED FROM FUZZY CONGRUENCES
In this paper we explore the connections between fuzzy congruence relations, fuzzy ideals and homomorphisms of hyperlattices. Indeed, we introduce the concept of fuzzy quotient set of hyperlattices as it was done in the...
ALL MAXIMAL COMPLETELY REGULAR SUBMONOIDS OF HypG(2)
In this paper we consider mappings σ which map the binary operation symbol f to the term σ(f) which do not necessarily preserve the arity. These mapping are called generalized hypersubstitutions of type τ = (2) and we de...
