Abstract :
For a near-ring $N$, the strong zero-divisor graph $Gamma_{s}(N)$ is a graph with vertices $V^{*}(N)$, the set of all non-zero left $N$-subset having non-zero annihilators and two vertices $I$ and $J$ are adjacent if and only if $IJ=0$. In this paper, we study diameter and girth of the graph $Gamma_{s}(N)$ wherein the nilpotent and invariant vertices are playing a significant role. We show that if $diam(Gamma_{s}(N))>3$, then $N$ is necessarily a strongly semi-prime near-ring. Also we find the $chi (Gamma_{s}(N))$ and investigate some characterizations of cliques and maximal cliques in $Gamma_{s}(N)$.
