Abstract
This paper presents a way to represent a group using a graph, which involves the concept of a generator element of a group. The graph representing a group is called the generator graph. In the generator graph, the vertices correspond to the elements of the group, and two vertices, x and y, are connected by an edge if either x or y serves as a generator for the group. The paper investigates some properties of these generator graphs and obtains the generator graphs for specific groups. Additionally, it explores the relationship between the generator graph of a group and the generating graph introduced by Lucchini et al. in their work [7].
