We extend the definition of the zero-divisor graphs of commutative semigroups to not necessarily commutative semigroups. We define an annihilating-ideal graph of a ring as a special type of zero-divisor graph of a semigroup. We introduce two ways to define the zero-divisor graphs of semigroups. The first definition gives a directed graph ${\Gamma}(S)$, and the other definition yields an undirected graph $\overline{{\Gamma}}(S)$. It is shown that $\Gamma(S)$ is not necessarily connected, but $\overline{{\Gamma}}(S)$ is always connected and ${\rm diam}(\overline{\Gamma}(S))\leq 3$. For a ring $R$ define a directed graph $\Bbb{APOG}(R)$ to be equal to $\Gamma(\Bbb{IPO}(R))$, where $\Bbb{IPO}(R)$ is a semigroup consisting of all products of two one-sided ideals of $R$, and define an undirected graph $\overline{\Bbb{APOG}}(R)$ to be equal to $\overline{\Gamma}(\Bbb{IPO}(R))$. We show that $R$ is an Artinian (resp., Noetherian) r...

The annihilating-ideal graph of $R$ is defined as the graph $\Bbb{AG}(R)$ with the vertex set $\Bbb{A}(R)^{*} = \Bbb{A}(R)\setminus \{(0)\}$ and two distinct vertices $I$ and $J$ are adjacent if and only if $IJ = (0)$. In this paper, we first study the interplay between the diameter of annihilating-ideal graphs and zero-divisor graphs. Also, we characterize rings $R$ when ${\rm gr}(\Bbb{AG}(R))\geq 4$, and so we characterize rings whose annihilating-ideal graphs are bipartite. Finally, in the last section we discuss on a relation between the Smarandache vertices and diameter of $\Bbb {AG}(R)$.

The zero-divisor graph of R is defined as the graph Γ(R) whose vertex set is Z(R) * = Z(R) \ {0} and two distinct vertices a and b are adjacent if and only if ab = 0. In this paper, we investigate the interplay between the ring-theoretic properties of group rings RG and the graph-theoretic properties of Γ(RG). We characterize finite commutative group rings RG for which either diam(Γ(RG)) ≤ 2 or gr(Γ(RG)) ≥ 4. Also, we investigate the isomorphism problem for zero-divisor graphs of group rings. First, we show that the rank and the cardinality of a finite abelian p-group are determined by the zero-divisor graph of its modular group ring. With the notion of zero-divisor graphs extended to noncommutative rings, it is also shown that two finite semisimple group rings are isomorphic if and only if their zero-divisor graphs are isomorphic. Finally, we show that finite noncommutative reversible group rings are determined by their zero-divisor graphs.

G for which G is normal in G satis…es G=G = ker( ): This concept for modules was …rst investigated by G. Ehrlich in 1976. Since then the concept has been extensively studied in module and ring theory. A recent paper of Li, Nicholson and Zan investigated the idea in the category of groups. A characterization for a …nite nilpotent group to be morphic was obtained, and some results about when a small p-group is morphic were given. In this paper, we continue the investigation of the general …nite morphic p-groups. Necessary and su¢ cient conditions for a morphic p-group of order p n (n > 3) to be abelian are given. Our main results show that if G is a morphic p-group of order p n with n > 3 such that either d(G) = 2 or jG 0 j < p 3 , then G is abelian, where d(G) is the minimal number of generators of G. As consequences of our main results we show that any morphic p-groups of order p 4 ; p 5 and p 6 are abelian.

Wickham [12] that "for a fixed positive integer g, there are finitely many isomorphism classes of finite commutative rings whose zero-divisor graph has genus g". In this note we give a short direct proof for this result. Moreover, we show that, if the zero-divisor graph of a commutative ring R has finite genus g, then either g = 0 or R is a finite ring. This immediately generalizes Wickham's theorem to arbitrary (not necessary finite) commutative rings.

We will generalize this notion for an ideal I of R by replacing nonzero ideals whose product is zero with ideals that are not contained in I and their product lies in I and call it the annihilating-ideal graph of R with respect to I, denoted I (R). We discuss when I (R) is bipartite. We also give some results on the subgraphs and the parameters of I (R).

The annihilating-ideal graph of $R$ is defined as the graph ${\Bbb{AG}}(R)$ with the vertex set ${\Bbb{A}}(R)^*={\Bbb{A}}\setminus\{(0)\}$ and two distinct vertices $I$ and $J$ are adjacent if and only if $IJ=(0)$. We investigate commutative rings $R$ whose annihilating-ideal graphs have positive genus $\gamma(\Bbb{AG}(R))$. It is shown that if $R$ is an Artinian ring such that $\gamma(\Bbb{AG}(R))<\infty$, then $R$ has finitely many ideals or $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ is a Gorenstein ring with maximal ideal $\mathfrak{m}$ and ${\rm v.dim}_{R/{\mathfrak{m}}}{\mathfrak{m}}/{\mathfrak{m}}^{2}=2$. Also, for any two integers $g\geq 0$ and $q>0$, there are finitely many isomorphism classes of Artinian rings $R$ satisfying the conditions: (i) $\gamma(\Bbb{AG}(R)) < g$ and (ii) $|R/{\mathfrak{m}}| \leq q$ for every maximal ideal ${\mathfrak{m}}$ of $R$. Also, it is shown that if $R$ is a non-domain Noetherian local ring such that $\gamma(\Bbb{AG}(R))<\infty$, then either $R$ is a Gorenstein ring or $R$ is an Artinian ring with finitely many ideals.

of R. An ideal I in I(R) is called an annihilator ideal of R if, IJ = 0 for some nonzero
ideal J of I(R). Let A(R) denote the set of all annihilators ideals of R. In this paper, we
define the Annihilating-Ideal graph of R (denoted by AG(R)), as an undirected graph
with vertices A(R)* = A(R)\ {(0)}, where distinct vertices I and J are adjacent if and
only if IJ = 0. We investigate commutative rings whose annihilating-ideal graphs have
positive genus. It is shown that if R is an Artinian ring then, 0 < g(AG(R)) < 1 if
and only if R has finitely many ideals. Also prove for two integer g>0 and q > 0,
there are finitely many Artinian rings R such that they satisfy in following conditions
(1) g(AG(R)) < g (2) |R/m| < q+1 for every maximal ideal m of R. The proves can be
modified to yield an analogous result for nonorientable genus.
