文摘The commuting graph of an arbitrary ring R, denoted by Г（R）, is a graph whose vertices are all non-central elements of R, and two distinct vertices a and b are adjacent if and only if ab = ba. In this paper, we investigate the connectivity and the diameter of Г（ZnS3）. We show that Г（ZnS3） is connected if and only if n is not a prime number. If Г（ZnS3） is connected then diam（Г（ZnS3）） = 3, while ifГ（ZnS3） is disconnected then every connected component of Г（ZnS3） must be a complete graph with same size, and we completely determine the vertice set of every connected component.
