Zero-divisor graphs of reduced Rickart *-rings
Journal Title: Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications - Year 2017, Vol 37, Issue 1
Abstract
For a ring A with an involution ∗, the zero-divisor graph of A, Γ∗ (A), is the graph whose vertices are the nonzero left zero-divisors in A such that distinct vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if xy∗ = 0. In this paper, we study the zero-divisor graph of a Rickart ∗-ring having no nonzero nilpotent element. The distance, diameter, and cycles of Γ∗ (A) are characterized in terms of the collection of prime strict ideals of A. In fact, we prove that the clique number of Γ∗ (A) coincides with the cellularity of the hullkernel topological space Σ(A) of the set of prime strict ideals of A, where cellularity of the topological space is the smallest cardinal number m such that every family of pairwise disjoint non-empty open subsets of the space have cardinality at most m.

RELATION BETWEEN (FUZZY) GODEL IDEALS AND ¨ (FUZZY) BOOLEAN IDEALS IN BL-ALGEBRAS
In this paper, we study relationships between among (fuzzy) Boolean ideals, (fuzzy) G¨odel ideals, (fuzzy) implicative filters and (fuzzy) Boolean filters in BL-algebras. In [9], there is an example which shows that a G¨...

NONDISTRIBUTIVE RINGS AND THEIR ORE ¨ LOCALIZATIONS
In the paper, we introduce the notion of a nondistributive ring N as a generalization of the notion of an associative ring with unit, in which the addition needs not be abelian and the distributive law is replaced by n0...
A NOTE ON IDEAL BASED ZERO-DIVISOR GRAPH OF A COMMUTATIVE RING
In this paper, we consider the ideal based zero divisor graph ΓI (R) of a commutative ring R. We discuss some graph theoretical properties of ΓI (R) in relation with zero divisor graph. We also relate certain parameters...
SOME HOMOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF SKEW P BW EXTENSIONS ARISING IN NON-COMMUTATIVE ALGEBRAIC GEOMETRY
In this short paper we study for the skew P BW (Poincar-Birkhoff-Witt) extensions some homological properties arising in non-commutative algebraic geometry, namely, Auslander-Gorenstein regularity, Cohen-Macaulayness and...
