Complement of the generalized total graph of fields. (English) Zbl 1468.05248

Summary: Let \(R\) be a commutative ring and \(H\) be a multiplicative prime subset of \(R\). The generalized total graph \(GT_H (R)\) is the undirected simple graph with vertex set \(R\) and two distinct vertices \(x\) and \(y\) are adjacent if \(x+y \in H\). For a field \(F, H = \{ 0 \} \) is the only multiplicative prime subset of \(F\) and the corresponding generalized total graph is denoted by \(GT(F)\). In this paper, we investigate several graph theoretical properties of \(\overline{GT(F)}\), where \(\overline{GT(F)}\) is the complement of the generalized total graph of \(F\). In particular, we characterize all the fields for which \(\overline{GT(F)}\) is unicyclic, split, chordal, claw-free, perfect and pancyclic.
