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 MN is an edge of AIG(R) if and only if Ann(MN)Ann(M)Ann(N), for distinct vertices M and 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.
