Abstract

The vertices of the commuting graph of a semigroup S are the noncentral elements of this semigroup, and its edges join all pairs of elements g, h that satisfy the relation gh = hg. The paper presents a proof of the fact that the diameter of the commuting graph of the semigroup of real matrices of order n ≥ 3 is equal to 4. A survey of results in that subject matter is presented, and several open problems are formulated.
