We consider zero-divisor graphs with respect to primal, nonprimal, weakly prime and weakly primal ideals of a commutative ring R with non-zero identity. We investigate the interplay between the ringtheoretic properties of R and the graph-theoretic properties of ${\Gamma}_I(R)$ for some ideal I of R. Also we show that the zero-divisor graph with respect to primal ideals commutes by localization.

The zero-divisor graph of a noncommutative ring R, denoted by ${\Gamma}(R)$, is a graph whose vertices are nonzero zero-divisors of R, and there is a directed edge from a vertex x to a distinct vertex y if and only if xy = 0. Let $R=M_2(F_q)$ be the $2{\times}2$ matrix ring over a finite field $F_q$. In this article, we investigate the automorphism group of ${\Gamma}(R)$.

Let ℤ be the ring of integers and let ℤ_n be the ring of integers modulo n. Let ℤ(+)ℤ_n be the idealization of ℤ_n in ℤ and let (ℤ(+)ℤ_n)[X]] be either (ℤ(+)ℤ_n)[X] or (ℤ(+)ℤ_n)[[X]]. In this article, we study the zero-divisor graphs of ℤ(+)ℤ_n and (ℤ(+)ℤ_n)[X]]. More precisely, we completely characterize the diameter and the girth of the zero-divisor graphs of ℤ(+)ℤ_n and (ℤ(+)ℤ_n)[X]]. We also calculate the chromatic number of the zero-divisor graphs of ℤ(+)ℤ_n and (ℤ(+)ℤ_n)[X]].

Let R be a ring with identity, X be the set of all nonzero, nonunits of R and G be the group of all units of R. A ring R is called unit-duo ring if $[x]_{\ell}=[x]_r$ for all $x{\in}X$ where $[x]_{\ell}=\{ux{\mid}u{\in}G\}$ (resp. $[x]_r=\{xu{\mid}u{\in}G\}$) which are equivalence classes on X. It is shown that for a semisimple unit-duo ring R (for example, a strongly regular ring), there exist a finite number of equivalence classes on X if and only if R is artinian. By considering the zero divisor graph (denoted ${\tilde{\Gamma}}(R)$) determined by equivalence classes of zero divisors of a unit-duo ring R, it is shown that for a unit-duo ring R such that ${\tilde{\Gamma}}(R)$ is a finite graph, R is local if and only if diam(${\tilde{\Gamma}}(R)$) = 2.

Unlike for polynomial rings, the notion of multiplication for the near-ring of polynomials is the substitution operation. This leads to somewhat surprising results. Let S be an abelian left near-ring with identity. The relation ~ on S defined by letting a ~ b if and only if ann_S(a) = ann_S(b), is an equivalence relation. The compressed zero-divisor graph 𝚪_E(S) of S is the undirected graph whose vertices are the equivalence classes induced by ~ on S other than [0]_S and [1]_S, in which two distinct vertices [a]_S and [b]_S are adjacent if and only if ab = 0 or ba = 0. In this paper, we are interested in studying the compressed zero-divisor graphs of the zero-symmetric near-ring of polynomials R₀[x] and the near-ring of the power series R₀[[x]] over a commutative ring R. Also, we give a complete characterization of the diameter of these two graphs. It is natural to try to find the relationship between diam(𝚪_E(R₀[x])) and diam(𝚪_E(R₀[[x]])). As a corollary, it is shown that for a reduced ring R, diam(𝚪_E(R)) ≤ diam(𝚪_E(R₀[x])) ≤ diam(𝚪_E(R₀[[x]])).

Let R be a commutative ring with identity, X the set of all nonzero, nonunits of R and G the group of all units of R. We will investigate some ring theoretic properties of R by considering $\Gamma$(R), the zero-divisor graph of R, under the regular action on X by G as follows: (1) If R is a ring such that X is a union of a finite number of orbits under the regular action on X by G, then there is a vertex of $\Gamma$(R) which is adjacent to every other vertex in $\Gamma$(R) if and only if R is a local ring or $R\;{\simeq}\;\mathbb{Z}_2\;{\times}\;F$ where F is a field; (2) If R is a local ring such that X is a union of n distinct orbits under the regular action of G on X, then all ideals of R consist of {{0}, J, $J^2$, $\ldots$, $J^n$, R} where J is the Jacobson radical of R; (3) If R is a ring such that X is a union of a finite number of orbits under the regular action on X by G, then the number of all ideals is finite and is greater than equal to the number of orbits.

The zero divisor graph is the most basic way of representing an algebraic structure as a graph. For any commutative ring R, each element is a vertex on the zero divisor graph and two vertices are defined as adjacent if and only if the product of those vertices equals zero. In this research, we determine some topological indices such as the Wiener index, the edge-Wiener index, the hyper-Wiener index, the Harary index, the first Zagreb index, the second Zagreb index, and the Gutman index of zero divisor graph of integers modulo prime power and its direct product.

Let R be a commutative ring with zero-divisors Z(R). The extended zero-divisor graph of R, denoted by $\bar{\Gamma}(R)$, is the (simple) graph with vertices $Z(R)^*=Z(R){\backslash}\{0\}$, the set of nonzero zero-divisors of R, where two distinct nonzero zero-divisors x and y are adjacent whenever there exist two non-negative integers n and m such that $x^ny^m=0$ with $x^n{\neq}0$ and $y^m{\neq}0$. In this paper, we consider the extended zero-divisor graphs of idealizations $R{\ltimes}M$ (where M is an R-module). At first, we distinguish when $\bar{\Gamma}(R{\ltimes}M)$ and the classical zero-divisor graph ${\Gamma}(R{\ltimes}M)$ coincide. Various examples in this context are given. Among other things, the diameter and the girth of $\bar{\Gamma}(R{\ltimes}M)$ are also studied.
