Proof of a conjecture of Abdollahi-Akbari-Maimani concerning the non-commutative graph of finite groups

The non--commuting graph $Gamma(G)$ of a non--abelian group $G$ is defined as follows. The vertex set $V(Gamma(G))$ of $Gamma(G)$ is $Gsetminus Z(G)$ where $Z(G)$ denotes the center of $G$ and two vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $xy eq yx$. For non--abelian finite groups $G$ and $H$ it is conjectured that if $Gamma(G) cong Gamma(H)$, then $|G|=|H|$. We prove the conjecture.
