A Question on Strongly Clean Rings

A new characterization of a strongly clean ring is given. And it is proven that if R is a strongly clean ring, then eRe is a strongly clean ring for e ² = e ∈ R, which answers a question of Nicholson (1999 Nicholson , W. K. ( 1999 ). Strongly clean rings and Fitting's lemma . Comm. Algebra 27 ( 8 ): 3583 – 3592 . [CSA] [Taylor &; Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]) in the affirmative.     

Strong Cleanness of Matrix Rings Over Commutative Rings

Let R be a commutative local ring. It is proved that R is Henselian if and only if each R-algebra which is a direct limit of module finite R-algebras is strongly clean. So, the matrix ring 𝕄 _n (R) is strongly clean for each integer n > 0 if R is Henselian and we show that the converse holds if either the residue class field of R is algebraically closed or R is an integrally closed domain or R is a valuation ring. It is also shown that each R-algebra which is locally a direct limit of module-finite algebras, is strongly clean if R is a π-regular commutative ring.     

On Clean Rings

A ring R is called clean if every element of R is the sum of an idempotent and a unit. Let M be a R-module. It is obtained in this article that the endomorphism ring End(M) is clean if and only if, whenever A = M′ ⊕ B = A₁ ⊕ A₂ with M′ ? M, there is a decomposition M′ =M₁ ⊕ M₂ such that A = M′ ⊕ [A₁ ∩ (M₁ ⊕ B)] ⊕ [A₂ ∩ (M₂ ⊕ B)]. Then unit-regular endomorphism rings are also described by direct decompositions.     

Reversible Group Rings Over Commutative Rings

Let G be a torsion group and R be a commutative ring with identity. We investigate reversible group rings RG over commutative rings, extending results of Gutan and Kisielewicz which characterize all reversible group rings over fields.     

Divisibility Theory of Arithmetical Rings with One Minimal Prime Ideal

Continuing the study of divisibility theory of arithmetical rings started in [1 Ánh, P. N., Márki, L., Vámos, P. (2012). Divisibility theory in commutative rings: Bezout monoidss. Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 364:3967–3992.[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]] and [2 Ánh, P. N., Siddoway, M. (2010). Divisibility theory of semi-hereditary rings. Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 138:4231–4242.[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]], we show that the divisibility theory of arithmetical rings with one minimal prime ideal is axiomatizable as Bezout monoids with one minimal m-prime filter. In particular, every Bezout monoid with one minimal m-prime filter is order-isomorphic to the partially ordered monoid with respect to inverse inclusion, of principal ideals in a Bezout ring with a smallest prime ideal. Although this result can be considered as a satisfactory answer to the divisibility theory of both semihereditary domains and valuation rings, the general representation theory of Bezout monoids is still open.     

On n-Absorbing Ideals of Commutative Rings

Let R be a commutative ring with 1 ≠ 0 and n a positive integer. In this article, we study two generalizations of a prime ideal. A proper ideal I of R is called an n-absorbing (resp., strongly n-absorbing) ideal if whenever x ₁…x _n+1 ∈ I for x ₁,…, x _n+1 ∈ R (resp., I ₁…I _n+1 ? I for ideals I ₁,…, I _n+1 of R), then there are n of the x _i 's (resp., n of the I _i 's) whose product is in I. We investigate n-absorbing and strongly n-absorbing ideals, and we conjecture that these two concepts are equivalent. In particular, we study the stability of n-absorbing ideals with respect to various ring-theoretic constructions and study n-absorbing ideals in several classes of commutative rings. For example, in a Noetherian ring every proper ideal is an n-absorbing ideal for some positive integer n, and in a Prüfer domain, an ideal is an n-absorbing ideal for some positive integer n if and only if it is a product of prime ideals.     

Commutative neat group rings

A ring R is called clean if every element of it is a sum of an idempotent and a unit. A ring R is neat if every proper homomorphic image of R is clean. When R is a field, then a complete characterization has been obtained for a commutative group ring RG to be neat, but not clean. And if R is not a field, then necessary conditions are obtained for a commutative group ring RG to be neat, but not clean. A counterexample is given to show that these necessary conditions are not sufficient.     

On Strongly Clean Modules

An element of a ring R is called “strongly clean” if it is the sum of an idempotent and a unit that commute, and R is called “strongly clean” if every element of R is strongly clean. A module M is called “strongly clean” if its endomorphism ring End(M) is a strongly clean ring. In this article, strongly clean modules are characterized by direct sum decompositions, that is, M is a strongly clean module if and only if whenever M′⊕ B = A ₁⊕ A ₂ with M′? M, there are decompositions M′ = M ₁⊕ M ₂, B = B ₁⊕ B ₂, and A _i  = C _i ⊕ D _i (i = 1,2) such that M ₁⊕ B ₁ = C ₁⊕ D ₂ = M ₁⊕ C ₁ and M ₂⊕ B ₂ = D ₁⊕ C ₂ = M ₂⊕ C ₂.     

Semiclean Rings

Abstract

The notion of semiclean elements in a ring is defined. Every clean element is semiclean. A ring R is said to be semiclean if every element in R is semiclean. The group ring Z _p G with G a cyclic group of order 3 is proved to be semiclean. The n × n matrix ring M _n (R) over a semiclean ring is semiclean. If R is a torsion free semiclean ring in which every element of R can be written as a sum of periodic and ±1, then R is clean. Every element in a semiclean ring R with 2 invertible is a sum of no more than 3 units.

Prime Lie Rings of Derivations of Commutative Rings

Let R be a 2-torsion free commutative ring with identity, and δ a nonzero derivation of R such that R is δ-prime. Then Rδ is a prime Lie ring and any nonzero ideal of Rδ contains an ideal of the form Jδ where J is a nonzero δ-ideal of R.     

Zero-Divisor Graphs of Matrices Over Commutative Rings

We investigate the properties of (directed) zero-divisor graphs of matrix rings. Then we use these results to discuss the relation between the diameter of the zero-divisor graph of a commutative ring R and that of the matrix ring M _n (R).

On Jordan Left Derivations of Lie Ideals in Prime Rings

Let R be a prime ring with characteristic different from two and U be a Lie ideal of R such that u² U for all u U. In the present paper it is shown that if d is an additive mappings of R into itself satisfying d(u²) = 2ud(u), for all u U, then either U Z(R) or d(U) = (0).1991 Mathematics Subject Classification 16W25 16N60     

On Strongly Stable Rings

Abstract

A ring R is called strongly stable if whenever aR + bR = R, there exists a w ∈ Q(R) such that a + bw ∈ U(R), where Q(R) = {x ∈ R ∣ ? e ? e ² ∈ J(R), u ∈ U(R) such that x = eu}. These rings are shown to be a natural generalization of semilocal rings and unit regular rings. We investigate the extensions of strongly stable rings. K ₁-groups of such rings are also studied. In this way we recover and extend some results of Menal and Moncasi.     

Idempotent Units of Commutative Group Rings

We find a necessary and sufficient condition for every normalized unit in a commutative unitary group ring to be an idempotent unit. Our criterion reduces the general situation to the torsion case. This extends in some way results due to Karpilovsky [7 Karpilovsky , G. ( 1982 ). On units in commutative group rings . Arch. Math. (Basel) 38 : 420 – 422 . [Google Scholar], 8 Karpilovsky , G. ( 1983 ). On finite generation of unit groups of commutative group rings . Arch. Math. (Basel) 40 : 503 – 508 . [Google Scholar]] and Danchev [1-3 Danchev , P. V. ( 2008 ).

Prime Radicals of Chevalley Groups over Commutative Rings
