Let ℤ_n be the ring of integers modulo n and Γ(ℤ_n) the zero-divisor graph of ℤ_n. In this paper, we study some properties of Γ(ℤ_n). More precisely, we completely characterize the diameter and the girth of Γ(ℤ_n). We also calculate the chromatic number of Γ(ℤ_n).

Let $m$ and $k$ be any positive integers, let $\mathbb{Z}_k$ the ring of integers of modulo $k$, let $G_m(\mathbb{Z}_k)$ the group of all $m$ by $m$ nonsingular matrices over $\mathbb{Z}_k$ and let ${\phi}_m(k)$ the order of $G_m(\mathbb{Z}_k)$. In this paper, ${\phi}_m(k)$ can be computed by the following investigation: First, for any relatively prime positive integers $s$ and $t$, $G_m(\mathbb{Z}_{st})$ is isomorphic to $G_m(\mathbb{Z}_s){\times}G_m(\mathbb{Z}_t)$. Secondly, for any positive integer $n$ and any prime $p$, ${\phi}_m(p^n)=p^{m^2}{\cdot}{\phi}_m(p^{n-1})=p{^{2m}}^2{\cdot}{\phi}_m(p^{n-2})={\cdots}=p^{{(n-1)m}^2}{\cdot}{\phi}_m(p)$, and so ${\phi}_m(k)={\phi}_m(p_1^n1){\cdot}{\phi}_m(p_2^{n2}){\cdots}{\phi}_m(p_s^{ns})$ for the prime factorization of $k$, $k=p_1^{n1}{\cdot}p_2^{n2}{\cdots}p_s^{ns}$.

In this paper, we study the strong metric dimension of zero-divisor graph ${\Gamma}(R)$ associated to a ring R. This is done by transforming the problem into a more well-known problem of finding the vertex cover number ${\alpha}(G)$ of a strong resolving graph $G_{sr}$. We find the strong metric dimension of zero-divisor graphs of the ring ${\mathbb{Z}}_n$ of integers modulo n and the ring of Gaussian integers ${\mathbb{Z}}_n$[i] modulo n. We obtain the bounds for strong metric dimension of zero-divisor graphs and we also discuss the strong metric dimension of the Cartesian product of graphs.

The Galois ring R of characteristic pⁿ having p^mn elements is a finite extension of the ring of integers modulo pⁿ, where p is a prime number and n, m are positive integers. In this paper, we develop the concepts of Jacobi sums over R and under the assumption that the generating additive character of R is trivial on maximal ideal of R, we obtain the basic relationship between Gauss sums and Jacobi sums, which allows us to determine the absolute value of the Jacobi sums.

We classify linear maps which preserve idempotents on $n{\times}n$ matrices over some classes of semirings. Our results include many known semirings like the semiring of all nonnegative integers, the semiring of all nonnegative reals, any unital commutative ring, which is zero divisor free and of characteristic not two (not necessarily a principal ideal domain), and the ring of integers modulo m, where m is a product of distinct odd primes.

In this article we look at the property of a 2 by 2 full matrix ring over the ring of integers, of being weakly right IQNN. This generalisation of the property of being right IQNN arises from products of idempotents and nilpotents. We shown that it is, indeed, a proper generalization of right IQNN. We consider the property of beign weakly right IQNN in relation to several kinds of factorizations of a free algebra in two indeterminates over the ring of integers modulo 2.

The Galois ring is a finite extension of the ring of integers modulo a prime power. We consider characters on Galois rings. In analogy with finite fields, we investigate complete Gauss sums over Galois rings. In particular, we analyze [1, Proposition 3] and give some lemmas related to [1, Proposition 3].

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]].

This article concerns a property of local rings and domains. A ring R is called weakly local if for every a ∈ R, a is regular or 1-a is regular, where a regular element means a non-zero-divisor. We study the structure of weakly local rings in relation to several kinds of factor rings and ring extensions that play roles in ring theory. We prove that the characteristic of a weakly local ring is either zero or a power of a prime number. It is also shown that the weakly local property can go up to polynomial (power series) rings and a kind of Abelian matrix rings.

Let K be an imaginary quadratic field with ring of integers 𝓞_K and N be a positive integer. By K_(N) we mean the ray class field of K modulo N𝓞_K. In this paper, for each prime p of K relatively prime to N𝓞_K we explicitly describe the action of the Artin symbol (${\frac{K_{(N)}/K}{p}}$) on special values of modular functions of level N. Furthermore, we extend the Kronecker congruence relation for the elliptic modular function j to some modular functions of higher level.
