    Abstract

    Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. We define a graph
    $\Gamma_{\aut}(R)$ on $ R$, with vertices elements of $R$, such that any two
    distinct vertices $x, y$ are adjacent if and only if there exists $\sigma \in
    \aut$ such that $\sigma(x)=y$. The idea is to apply graph theory to study orbit
    spaces of rings under automorphisms. In this article, we define the notion of a
    ring of type $n$ for $n\geq 0$ and characterize all rings of type zero.
