My email address is abc.xyz@gmail.com I am receiving mails of abcxyz@gmail.com. Please explain?

I personally tested this and I am receiving mail from abc.xyz@gmail.com and abcxyz@gmail.com

Is both the email address belong to me or 2 different identity?

thats actually also your email address so you get all email sent to it including some people sending to what they THINK is someone elses address but actually belongs to you ( just like a phone call to the wrong number doesnt mean someone has your number   ) . and nobody else can access that email cause its yours so they do not get your emails.  
 
(1) Send a test email to the other address - you will receive it in your account.  
(2) Log out then sign into your account BUT enter the other username  and your password .  You will see that you will  be signed into your account
 
 
 
 note that filters do see dots so all you need is one filter to delete all mail sent TO that address >>  https://support.google.com/mail/answer/6579?hl=en
