Abstract

In this paper, we introduce a new graph over a commutative ring R relative to an R-module M. We study the relationship between the algebraic properties of R and M and their associated graph, say G(RM). More precisely, we consider the relationship between the completeness of subgraphs of the G(RM) and algebraic properties of R and M. In addition, we study the bipartite and complete bipartite subgraphs of the associated graph. Finally, we completely characterize the diameter of the certain subgraph of G(RM).
