Abstract

In this paper, we determine when \((\Gamma_I (L))^c\), the complement of the zero-divisor graph \((\Gamma_I (L))\) with respect to a semiprime ideal I of a lattice L, is connected and also determine its diameter, radius, centre and girth. Further, a form of Beck's conjecture is proved for \((\Gamma_I (L))\) when \(\omega((\Gamma_I (L))c) < \infty\). 10.1017/S0004972713000300
