Abstract

In this paper, we introduce the concept of the associate class graph of zero-divisors of a commutative ring [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text]. Some properties of [Formula: see text], including the diameter, the connectivity and the girth are investigated. Utilizing this graph, we present a new class of counterexamples of Beck’s conjecture on the chromatic number of the zero-divisor graph of a commutative ring.
