    Let \(P(x, y)\) be a bivariate polynomial with complex coefficients, and let \(I\) be the ideal generated by \(P(x, y)\). The variety of \(I\) is the set of ordered pairs \((u, v)\) such \(P(u, v) = 0\). The zeros of \(P(x, y)\) give rise to a combinatorial structure by considering them as arcs of a digraph \(G(P)\). The paper presents a combinatorial structure to the variety of \(I\) by taking its elements as arcs of \(G(P)\), and explores the relationship between the polynomial \(P(x, y)\) and the structure of \(G(P)\).
