Abstract

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unity and $A(R)$ be the set of annihilating-ideals of $R$. The annihilator intersection graph of $R$, represented by $AIG(R)$, is an undirected graph with $A(R)^*$ as the vertex set and $\mathfrak{M} \sim \mathfrak{N}$ is an edge of $AIG(R)$ if and only if $Ann(\mathfrak{M}\mathfrak{N}) \neq Ann(\mathfrak{M}) \cap Ann(\mathfrak{N})$, for distinct vertices $\mathfrak{M}$ and $\mathfrak{N}$ of $AIG(R)$. In this paper, we first defined finite commutative rings whose annihilator intersection graph is isomorphic to various well-known graphs, and then all finite commutative rings with a planar or toroidal annihilator intersection graph were characterized.
