Abstract

In this article, we give several generalizations of the concept of annihilating ideal graph over a commutative ring with identity to modules. We
observe that over a commutative ring R, BbbAG(RM) is
connected and diamBbbAG(RM)leq3. Moreover, if BbbAG(RM) contains a cycle, then mboxgrBbbAG(RM)leq4. Also for an R-module M with
BbbA(M)neqS(M)setminus0, BbbA(M)=emptyset
if and only if M is a uniform module and ann(M) is a prime
ideal of R.
