Abstract
In this paper, we derive a set of equivalent conditions for the zero-divisor graph of a poset with to be complemented, characterizing it in terms of quasi-complemented posets. Furthermore, we prove that the notions of a complemented zero-divisor graph and a uniquely complemented zero-divisor graph coincide for any poset with . In addition, we provide both algebraic and topological characterizations for to be a complemented graph. In the final section, we apply these characterizations to the zero-divisor graphs of a reduced (multiplicative) semigroup with and the comaximal (ideal) graph of an Artinian ring , and the nonzero component union graph of a finite-dimensional vector space over a field .
