In this paper, we propose a matrix hypercube graph as a new topology for parallel computer and analyze its characteristics of the network parameters, such as degree, routing and diameter. N-dimensional matrix hypercube graph MH(2,n) contains 22n vertices and has relatively lower degree and smaller diameter than well-known hypercube graph. The matrix hypercube graph MH(2,n) and the hypercube graph Q2n have the same number of vertices. In terms of the network cost, defined as the product of the degree and diameter, the former has n2 while the latter has 4n2. In other words, it means that matrix hypercube graph MH(2,n) is better than hypercube graph Q2n with respect to the network cost.

The competition graph of a digraph D is a graph which has the same vertex set as D and has an edge between x and y if and only if there exists a vertex v in D such that (x, v) and (y, v) are arcs of D. For any graph G, G together with sufficiently many isolated vertices is the competition graph of some acyclic digraph. The competition number k(G) of a graph G is defined to be the smallest number of such isolated vertices. In general, it is hard to compute the competition number k(G) for a graph G and it has been one of important research problems in the study of competition graphs. In this paper, we compute the competition numbers of Hamming graphs with diameter at most three.

A pebbling step on a graph consists of removing two pebbles from one vertex and placing one pebble on an adjacent vertex. The covering cover pebbling number of a graph is the smallest number of pebbles, such that, however the pebbles are initially placed on the vertices of the graph, after a sequence of pebbling moves, the set of vertices with pebbles forms a covering of G. In this paper we find the covering cover pebbling number of n-cube and diameter two graphs. Finally we give an upperbound for the covering cover pebbling number of graphs of diameter d.

For a distance-regular graph with valency k, second largest eigenvalue r and diameter D, it is known that r ≥ $min\{\frac{{\lambda}+\sqrt{{\lambda}^2+4k}}{2},\;a_3\}$ if D = 3 and r ≥ $\frac{{\lambda}+\sqrt{{\lambda}^2+4k}}{2}$ if D ≥ 4, where λ = a₁. This result can be generalized to the class of edge-regular graphs. For an edge-regular graph with parameters (v, k, λ) and diameter D ≥ 4, we compare $\frac{{\lambda}+\sqrt{{\lambda}^2+4k}}{2}$ with the local valency λ to find a relationship between the second largest eigenvalue and the local valency. For an edge-regular graph with diameter 3, we look at the number $\frac{{\lambda}-\bar{\mu}+\sqrt{({\lambda}-\bar{\mu})^2+4(k-\bar{\mu})}}{2}$, where $\bar{\mu}=\frac{k(k-1-{\lambda})}{v-k-1}$, and compare this number with the local valency λ to give a relationship between the second largest eigenvalue and the local valency. Also, we apply these relationships to distance-regular graphs.

The Bubble sort graph is node symmetric, and can be used in the data sorting algorithm. In this research we propose and analyze that Half Bubble sort graph that improved the network cost of Bubble sort graph. The Half Bubble sort graph's number of node is n!, and its degree is ${\lfloor}n/2{\rfloor}+1$. The Half Bubble sort graph's degree is $${\sim_=}0.5$$ times of the Bubble sort, and diameter is $${\sim_=}0.9$$ times of the Bubble sort. The network cost of the Bubble sort graph is $${\sim_=}0.5n^3$$, and the network cost of the half Bubble sort graph is $${\sim_=}0.2n^3$$. We have proved that half bubble sort graph is a sub graph of the bubble sort graph. In addition, we proposed a routing algorithm and analyzed the diameter. Finally, network cost is compared with the bubble sort graph.

In this paper, we study a directed simple graph ${\Gamma}_S(N)$ for a near-ring N, where the set $V^*(N)$ of vertices is the set of all left N-subsets of N with nonzero left annihilators and for any two distinct vertices $I,J{\in}V^*(N)$, I is adjacent to J if and only if IJ = 0. Here, we deal with the diameter, girth and coloring of the graph ${\Gamma}_S(N)$. Moreover, we prove a sufficient condition for occurrence of a regular element of the near-ring N in the left annihilator of some vertex in the strong zero-divisor graph ${\Gamma}_S(N)$.

Let R be a commutative ring with identity and let I be a proper ideal of R. In this paper, we study the ideal based extended zero-divisor graph 𝚪'_I (R) and prove that 𝚪'_I (R) is connected with diameter at most two and if 𝚪'_I (R) contains a cycle, then girth is at most four girth at most four. Furthermore, we study affinity the connection between the ideal based extended zero-divisor graph 𝚪'_I (R) and the ideal-based zero-divisor graph 𝚪_I (R) associated with the ideal I of R. Among the other things, for a radical ideal of a ring R, we show that the ideal-based extended zero-divisor graph 𝚪'_I (R) is identical to the ideal-based zero-divisor graph 𝚪_I (R) if and only if R has exactly two minimal prime-ideals which contain I.

A digraph D is primitive if there is a positive integer $k$ such that there is a walk of length $k$ between arbitrary two vertices of D. The exponent of a primitive digraph is the least such $k$. Wielandt graph $W_n$ of order $n$ is known as the digraph whose exponent is $n^2-2n+2$, which is the maximum of all the exponents of the primitive digraphs of order n. It is known that the diameter of the multiple direct product of a digraph $W_n$ strictly increases according to the multiplicity of the product. And it stops when it attains to the exponent of $W_n$. In this paper, we find the diameter of the direct product of Wielandt graphs.

Let R be a commutative ring with unity. The annihilator ideal graph of R, denoted by ${\Gamma}_{Ann}(R)$, is a graph whose vertices are all non-trivial ideals of R and two distinct vertices I and J are adjacent if and only if $I{\cap}Ann(J){\neq}\{0\}$ or $J{\cap}Ann(I){\neq}\{0\}$. In this paper, we study some connections between the graph-theoretic properties of this graph and some algebraic properties of rings. We characterize all rings whose annihilator ideal graphs are totally disconnected. Also, we study diameter, girth, clique number and chromatic number of this graph. Moreover, we study some relations between annihilator ideal graph and zero-divisor graph associated with R. Among other results, it is proved that for a Noetherian ring R if ${\Gamma}_{Ann}(R)$ is triangle free, then R is Gorenstein.

This paper deals with the graph in which the weights of edges are given the distances between two end vertices on a metric space. In particular, we will study about a path P with n vertices for these graphs. We obtain a new graph $\bar{P}$ by augmenting an edge to P. Then the length of the shortest path between two vertices on $\bar{P}$ is considered and we focus on the maximum of these lengths. This maximum is called the diameter of the graph $\bar{P}$. We wish to find the augmented edge to minimize the diameter of $\bar{P}$. Especially, for an arbitrary real number λ > 0, we should determine whether the diameter of $\bar{P}$ is less than or equal to λ and we propose an O(n)-time algorithm for this problem, which improves on the time complexity O(nlogn) previously known. Using this decision algorithm, for the length D of P, we provide an O(nlogD)-time algorithm to find the minimum of the diameter of $\bar{P}$.
