Abstract
Let S always denote a semigroup with zero. This paper is devoted to study some of properties zero-divisor graph of S-act. We give several generalizations of the concept of zero-divisor elements in an S-act. Then for each S-act A we associate three undirected (simple) graphs Γ*(A) ⊆ Γ(A) ⊆ Γ*(A). Also we show that if A is an S-act, then
-
(1)
Γ*(A) is a connected graph and diam(Γ*(A)) ≤ 3; and
-
(2)
If Ann(A) is a prime ideal of S, then diam(Γ*(A)) ≤ 2.
