Abstract

There are so many graph constructions from algebraic structures. In particular, graphs from commutative rings are extensively studied. Zero-divisor graphs from commutative rings are the first graph construction in this regard. In the zero divisor graph of a commutative ring, edges are constructed through multiplication of the underlying ring. In variation to this, several graphs are constructed using addition of a commutative ring. The first graph construction using addition is the total graph and later generalized total graphs from commutative rings are introduced and studied. In this paper, we make a survey of results obtained on the complement of the generalized total graph of commutative rings as well as fields.
