In this paper we give two characterisations of the class of reflexive graphs admitting distributive lattice polymorphisms and use these characterisations to address the problem of recognition: we find a polynomial time algorithm to decide if a given reflexive graph G, in which no two vertices have the same neighbourhood, admits a distributive lattice polymorphism.

We make advances towards a structural characterisation of the signed graphs H for which the list switch H-colouring problem List-S-Hom(H) can be solved in polynomial time. We conjecture two different characterisations, the second refining the first, in the case that the graph H can be switched to a graph in which every negative edge is also positive. Using a recent proof of the first characterisations for reflexive signed graphs, by Bok et. al., we prove the second characterisation for reflexive signed graphs. We also provide several tools for reducing the problem to the bipartite case, and prove a full complexity dichotomy for a related problem.

In this paper, we introduce the generalized ideal-based zero-divisor graph structure of near-ring N, denoted by $\widehat{{\Gamma}_I(N)}$. It is shown that if I is a completely reflexive ideal of N, then every two vertices in $\widehat{{\Gamma}_I(N)}$ are connected by a path of length at most 3, and if $\widehat{{\Gamma}_I(N)}$ contains a cycle, then the core K of $\widehat{{\Gamma}_I(N)}$ is a union of triangles and rectangles. We have shown that if $\widehat{{\Gamma}_I(N)}$ is a bipartite graph for a completely semiprime ideal I of N, then N has two prime ideals whose intersection is I.
