On the Non-Inverse Graph of a Group

Abstract Let (G, *) be a finite group and S = {u ∈ G|u ≠ u−1}, then the inverse graph is defined as a graph whose vertices coincide with G such that two distinct vertices u and v are adjacent if and only if either u * v ∈ S or v * u ∈ S. In this paper, we introduce a modified version of the inverse graph, called i*-graph associated with a group G. The i*-graph is a simple graph with vertex set consisting of elements of G and two vertices x, y ∈ Γ are adjacent if x and y are not inverses of each other. We study certain properties and characteristics of this graph. Some parameters of the i*-graph are also determined.
