  • Abstract
    Let R be a commutative ring. The zero-divisor graph of R is the (simple) graph Γ(R) with vertices the nonzero zero-divisors of R, and two distinct vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if xy = 0. In this article, we investigate Γ(R) when R does not have an identity, and we determine all such zero-divisor graphs with 14 or fewer vertices.
