Abstract

This paper presents an efficiently covered property of the zero-divisor graph of L (+) N, with L a commutative ring with the identity element and N an L−module. we present a complete characterization of when Γ (L (+) N) is well covered in terms of the annihilator structure of N. Moreover, new concept is introduced its r−well covered graphs: as far as a well-covered graph has all maximal independent sets of size r. They can further prove that if L is an integral domain, ann(N) = 0 and if the graph Γ (L (+) N) is well covered in the sense of (|N|− 1) −well covered. All this goes to show that at least a meaningful link must exist between the algebraic structural condition of idealization rings and the corresponding graph-theoretic properties of their associated zero-divisor graphs: something quite different from the former studies on clique numbers and independence numbers in these structures.
