Compressed commuting graphs of matrix rings

In this paper we introduce compressed commuting graph of rings. It can be seen as a compression of the standard commuting graph (with the central elements added) where we identify the vertices that generate the same subring. The compression is chosen in such a way that it induces a functor from the category of rings to the category of graphs, which means that our graph takes into account not only the commutativity relation in the ring, but also the commutativity relation in all of its homomorphic images. Furthermore, we show that this compression is best possible for matrix algebras over finite fields, i.e., it compresses as much as possible while still inducing a functor. We compute the compressed commuting graphs of finite fields and rings of $2 \times 2$ matrices over finite fields.

Minimal cover groups

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a set of finite groups. A finite group $G$ is called an \emph{$\mathcal{F}$-cover} if every group in $\mathcal{F}$ is isomorphic to a subgroup of $G$. An $\mathcal{F}$-cover is called \emph{minimal} if no proper subgroup of $G$ is an $\mathcal{F}$-cover, and \emph{minimum} if its order is smallest among all $\mathcal{F}$-covers. We prove several results about minimal and minimum $\mathcal{F}$-covers: for example, every minimal cover of a set of $p$-groups (for $p$ prime) is a $p$-group (and there may be finitely or infinitely many, for a given set); every minimal cover of a set of perfect groups is perfect; and a minimum cover of a set of two nonabelian simple groups is either their direct product or simple. Our major theorem determines whether $\{\mathbb{Z}_q,\mathbb{Z}_r\}$ has finitely many minimal covers, where $q$ and $r$ are distinct primes. Motivated by this, we say that $n$ is a \emph{Cauchy number} if there are only finitely many groups which are minimal (under inclusion) with respect to having order divisible by $n$, and we determine all such numbers. This extends Cauchy's theorem. We also define a dual concept where subgroups are replaced by quotients, and we pose a number of problems.

A graph which recognizes idempotents of a commutative ring

In this paper we introduce and study a graph on the set of ideals of a commutative ring $R$. The vertices of this graph are non-trivial ideals of $R$ and two distinct ideals $I$ and $J$ are adjacent if and only $IJ=I\cap J$. We obtain some properties of this graph and study its relation to the structure of $R$.
