Abstract

For a commutative ring $R$ with identity $1\neq 0$, let the set $Z(R)$ denote the set of zero-ivisors and let $Z^{*}(R)=Z(R)\setminus \{0\}$ be the set of non-zero zero-divisors of $R$.  The zero-divisor graph of $R$, denoted by $\Gamma(R)$, is a simple graph whose vertex set is $Z^{*} (R)$ and two vertices $u, v \in Z^*(R)$ are adjacent if and only if $uv=vu=0$. In this article, we find the signless Laplacian spectrum of the zero divisor graphs $ \Gamma(\mathbb{Z}_{n}) $ for $ n=p^{M_{1}}q^{M_{2}}$, where $ p<q $ are primes and $ M_{1} , M_{2} $ are positive integers.
