Abstract
Let R be a ring with identity and M be a unitary left R-module. The intersection graph of submodules of M, denoted by G(M), is defined to be a graph whose vertices are in one to one correspondence with all non-trivial submodules of M and two distinct vertices are adjacent if and only if the corresponding submodules of M have non-zero intersection. In this paper, we consider the intersection graph of submodules of a module. We determine the structure of modules whose clique numbers are finite. We show that if 1 < ω(G(M)) < ∞, then M is a direct sum of a finite module and a cyclic module, where ω(G(M)) denotes the clique number of G(M). We prove that if ω(G(M)) is not finite, then M contains an infinite clique. Among other results, it is shown that a Noetherian R-module whose intersection of all non-trivial submodules is non-zero, is Artinian.
