Title of TalkExact Zero Divisor Graphs
AbstractZero divisor graphs of rings identify the elements of the annihilators. Is it possible to identify the generators of the annihilators from these graphs? We work examples for which the answer is yes. Our explanation uses exact zero divisor graphs. For this talk, rings will be only the integers modulo n and we will assume very little background knowledge.

Special NeedsI would prefer to make a few remarks on a white board and keep them visible during a power point presentation. It is not a problem if the room does not accommodate this preference.
