Abstract:
      In this paper, a new class of rings, called FIC rings, is introduced for studying quasi-zero-divisor graphs of rings. Let $R$ be a ring. The quasi-zero-divisor graph of $R$, denoted by $\Gamma_*(R)$, is a directed graph defined on its nonzero quasi-zero-divisors, where there is an arc from a vertex $x$ to another vertex $y$ if and only if $xRy=0$. We show that the following three conditions on an FIC ring $R$ are equivalent: (1) $\chi(R)$ is finite; (2) $\omega(R)$ is finite; (3) Nil$_*R$ is finite where Nil$_*R$ equals the finite intersection of prime ideals. Furthermore, we also completely determine the connectedness, the diameter and the girth of $\Gamma_*(R)$.
