Power series over strongly Hopfian bounded rings

Let R be a commutative ring with identity. We show that R[[X]] is strongly Hopfian bounded if and only if R has a strongly Hopfian bounded extension T such that I_c(T) contains a regular element of T. We deduce that if R[[X]] is strongly Hopfian bounded, then so is R[[X,Y]] where X,Y are two indeterminates over R. Also we show that if R is embeddable in a zero-dimensional strongly Hopfian bounded ring, then so is R[[X]] (this generalizes most results of Hizem [11 Hizem, S. (2011). Formal power series over strongly Hopfian rings. Commun. Algebra 39(1):279–291.[Taylor & Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]]). For a chained ring R, we show that R[[X]] is strongly Hopfian if and only if R is strongly Hopfian.
