Let R be a ring, (S,${\leq}$) a strictly ordered monoid and ${\omega}$ : S ${\rightarrow}$ End(R) a monoid homomorphism. The skew generalized power series ring R[[S,${\omega}$]] is a common generalization of (skew) polynomial rings, (skew) power series rings, (skew) Laurent polynomial rings, (skew) group rings, and Mal'cev-Neumann Laurent series rings. In this paper, we investigate the interplay between the ring-theoretical properties of R[[S,${\omega}$]] and the graph-theoretical properties of its zero-divisor graph ${\Gamma}$(R[[S,${\omega}$]]). Furthermore, we examine the preservation of diameter and girth of the zero-divisor graph under extension to skew generalized power series rings.

The commuting graph of an arbitrary ring R, denoted by ${\Gamma}(R)$, is a graph whose vertices are all non-central elements of R, and two distinct vertices a and b are adjacent if and only if ab = ba. In this paper, we investigate the connectivity, the diameter, the maximum degree and the minimum degree of the commuting graph of group ring $Z_nQ_8$. The main result is that $\Gamma(Z_nQ_8)$ is connected if and only if n is not a prime. If $\Gamma(Z_nQ_8)$ is connected, then diam($Z_nQ_8$)= 3, while $\Gamma(Z_nQ_8)$ is disconnected then every connected component of $\Gamma(Z_nQ_8)$ must be a complete graph with a same size. Further, we obtain the degree of every vertex in $\Gamma(Z_nQ_8)$, the maximum degree and the minimum degree of $\Gamma(Z_nQ_8)$.

The Klee-Quaife problem is finding the minimum order ${\mu}(d,c,v)$ of the $(d,c,v)$ graph, which is a $c$-vertex connected $v$-regular graph with diameter $d$. Many authors contributed finding ${\mu}(d,c,v)$ and they also enumerated and classied the graphs in several cases. This problem is naturally extended to the case of digraphs. So we are interested in the extended Klee-Quaife problem. In this paper, we deal with an equivalent problem, finding the maximum diameter of digraphs with given order, focused on 2-regular case. We show that the maximum diameter of strongly connected 2-regular digraphs with order $n$ is $n-3$, and classify the digraphs which have diameter $n-3$. All 15 nonisomorphic extremal digraphs are listed.

The pancake graph is node symmetric and is utilized on the data sorting algorithm. We propose a new half pancake graph that improve pancake graph's network cost. The half pancake degree is approximately half of pancakes degree and diameter is 3n+4. The pancake graph's network cost is $O(1.64n^2)$ and half pancake's is $O(1.5n^2)$. Additionally half pancake graph is sub graph of pancake graph. As this result, The several algorithms developed in pancake graph has the advantage of leverage on the pancake by adding constant cost.

In this paper, we propose a matrix star graph which improves the network cost of the well-known star grah as an interconnection network. We analyze its characteristics in terms of the network parameters, such as degree, scalability, routing, and diameter. The proposed matrix star graph MS2,n has the half degrees of a star graph S2n with the same number of nodes and is an interconnection network with the properties of node symmetry, maximum fault tolerance, and recursive structure. In network cost, a matrix star graph MS2,n and a star graph S2n are about 3.5n2 and 6n2 respectively which means that the former has a better value by a certain constant than the latter has.
