Let £ be a $0$-distributive lattice with the least element $0$, the greatest element $1$, and ${rm Z}(£)$ its set of zero-divisors. In this paper, we introduce the total graph of £, denoted by ${rm T}(G (£))$. It is the graph with all elements of £ as vertices, and for distinct $x, y in £$, the vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $x vee y in {rm Z}(£)$. The basic properties of the ...

Let R be a commutative ring with $Z(R)$ its set of zero-divisors. In this paper, we study the total graph of $R$, denoted by $T(Gamma(R))$. It is the (undirected) graph with all elements of R as vertices, and for distinct $x, yin R$, the vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $x + yinZ(R)$. We study the chromatic number and edge connectivity of this graph.

a emph{signed graph} (or, in short, emph{sigraph}) $s=(s^u,sigma)$ consists of an underlying graph $s^u :=g=(v,e)$ and a function $sigma:e(s^u)longrightarrow {+,-}$, called the signature of $s$. a emph{marking} of $s$ is a function $mu:v(s)longrightarrow {+,-}$. the emph{canonical marking} of a signed graph $s$, denoted $mu_sigma$, is given as $$mu_sigma(v) := prod_{vwin e(s)}sigma(vw).$$the li...

a graph that contains a hamiltonian cycle is called a hamiltonian graph. in this paper wecompute the first and the second geometric – arithmetic indices of hamiltonian graphs. thenwe apply our results to obtain some bounds for fullerene.

let $g=(v,e)$ be a simple graph. a set $dsubseteq v$ is adominating set of $g$ if every vertex in $vsetminus d$ has atleast one neighbor in $d$. the distance $d_g(u,v)$ between twovertices $u$ and $v$ is the length of a shortest $(u,v)$-path in$g$. an $(u,v)$-path of length $d_g(u,v)$ is called an$(u,v)$-geodesic. a set $xsubseteq v$ is convex in $g$ ifvertices from all $(a, b)$-geodesics belon...

the coprime graph $gg$ with a finite group $g$‎ ‎as follows‎: ‎take $g$ as the vertex set of $gg$ and join two distinct‎ ‎vertices $u$ and $v$ if $(|u|,|v|)=1$‎. ‎in the paper‎, ‎we explore how the graph‎ ‎theoretical properties of $gg$ can effect on the group theoretical‎ ‎properties of $g$‎.

a dominating set $d subseteq v$ of a graph $g = (v,e)$ is said to be a connected cototal dominating set if $langle d rangle$ is connected and $langle v-d rangle neq phi$, contains no isolated vertices. a connected cototal dominating set is said to be minimal if no proper subset of $d$ is connected cototal dominating set. the connected cototal domination number $gamma_{ccl}(g)$ of $g$ is the min...
