Abstract

Let N be a zero-symmetric near-ring with identity and let ${\Gamma}(N)$ be a graph with vertices as elements of N, where two different vertices a and b are adjacent if and only if + = N, where is the ideal of N generated by x. Let ${\Gamma}_1(N)$ be the subgraph of ${\Gamma}(N)$ generated by the set {n ${\in}$ N : = N} and ${\Gamma}_2(N)$ be the subgraph of ${\Gamma}(N)$ generated by the set $N{\backslash}{\upsilon}({\Gamma}_1(N))$, where ${\upsilon}(G)$ is the set of all vertices of a graph G. In this paper, we completely characterize the diameter of the subgraph ${\Gamma}_2(N)$ of ${\Gamma}(N)$. In addition, it is shown that for any near-ring, ${\Gamma}_2(N){\backslash}M(N)$ is a complete bipartite graph if and only if the number of maximal ideals of N is 2, where M(N) is the intersection of all maximal ideals of N and ${\Gamma}_2(N){\backslash}M(N)$ is the graph obtained by removing the elements of the set M(N) from the vertices set of the graph ${\Gamma}_2(N)$.
