Quasi-Armendariz Rings Relative to a Monoid

A ring R is called an M-quasi-Armendariz ring (a quasi-Armendariz ring relative to a monoid M) if whenever elements α = a ₁ g ₁ + a ₂ g ₂ + ··· + a _n g _n , β = b ₁ h ₁ + b ₂ h ₂ + ··· + b _m h _m  ? RM] satisfy α RM]β = 0, then a _i Rb _j  = 0 for each i, j. After discussing some basic properties of M-quasi-Armendariz rings, we consider the influence of transformation of the monoid M and the ring R on this property. Particularly, we give some sufficient conditions for the monoids M, N, and the ring R under which R is M × N-quasi-Armendariz if and only if R is M-quasi-Armendariz and N-quasi-Armendariz.
