Given rings $R \subseteq S$, consider the division closure $DC(R,S)$ and the rational closure $RC(R,S)$ of R in S. If S is commutative, then $DC(R,S)=RC(R,S)=RT^{-1}$, where $T = \{t\in R : t^{-1} \in S\}$. We show that this is also true if…

Given a surjective ring homomorphism, we study when the induced group homomorphism on unit groups is surjective. To this end, we introduce notions of generalized inverses and units, as well as a class of rings such that the set of closed…

In this note, we show that a ring $R$ is $S$-coherent if and only if every finitely presented $R$-module is $S$-coherent, providing a positive answer to a question proposed in [D. Bennis, M. El Hajoui, {\it On $S$-coherence}, J. Korean…

Let $S\subseteq R$ be a multiplicatively closed subset of a ring $R$. We extend several results on integral domains to their $S$-versions and establish the $S$-version of Krull intersection theorem. We also show that if $R$ is an $S$-field,…

Consider the following inductively defined set. Given a collection $U$ of unit magnitude complex numbers, and a set initially containing just 0 and 1, through each point in the set, draw lines whose angles with the real axis are in $U$. Add…

Let $R$ be an associative ring with identity and let $N$ be a nil ideal of $R$. It is shown that units of $R/N$ can be lifted to units in $R$. Under some mild conditions on the ring, a procedure is given to determine those lifted units in a…

It is well known that the full matrix ring over a skew-field is a simple ring. We generalize this theorem to the case of semirings. We characterize the case when the matrix semiring $\mathbf{M}_n(S)$, of all $n\times n$ matrices over a…

This article studies the notion of $S-r-$ideals in commutative ring $H$, where $S$ is a multiplicatively closed subset of $H$. Some basic properties of $S-r-$ideals are given. Various characterizations of $S-r-$ideals are presented. Also,…

Given a multiplicative subset $S$ in a commutative ring $R$, we consider $S$-weakly cotorsion and $S$-strongly flat $R$-modules, and show that all $R$-modules have $S$-strongly flat covers if and only if all flat $R$-modules are…

Let V be a normal affine variety over the real numbers R, and let S be a semi-algebraic subset of V(R). We study the subring B(S) of the coordinate ring of V consisting of the polynomials that are bounded on S. We introduce the notion of…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of uniformly S-essential (u-S-essential) submodules. Let R be a commutative ring and S a multiplicative subset of R. A submodule K of an R-module M is said to be u-S-essential in M if for any submodule…

Let R be a ring with the set of nilpotents Nil(R). We prove that the following are equivalent: (i) Nil(R) is additively closed, (ii) Nil(R) is multiplicatively closed and R satisfies Koethe's conjecture, (iii) Nil(R) is closed under the…

Let R be a commutative ring with identity, S be a multiplicatively closed subset of R, and let M be an R-module. The aim of this paper is to introduce the notion of S-secondary submodules of M as a generalization of secondary submodules of…

A matrix (and any associated linear system) will be referred to as structured if it has a small displacement rank. It is known that the inverse of a structured matrix is structured, which allows fast inversion (or solution), and reduced…

In this article, we introduce the notion of uniformly S-projective (u-S-projective) relative to a module. Let S be a multiplicative subset of a ring R and M an R-module. An R-module P is said to be u-S-projective relative to M if for any…

Let S and R be the rings of regular functions on affine algebraic varieties over a field of characteristic 0, R be embedded as a subring in S, and F : S --> S be an endomorphism such that F(R) subset R. Suppose that every ideal of height 1…

We describe a method for solving linear systems over the localization of a commutative ring $R$ at a multiplicatively closed subset $S$ that works under the following hypotheses: the ring $R$ is coherent, i.e., we can compute finite…

Recognizing when a ring is a complete matrix ring is of significant importance in algebra. It is well-known folklore that a ring $R$ is a complete $n\times n$ matrix ring, so $R\cong M_{n}(S)$ for some ring $S$, if and only if it contains a…

The covering number of an associative ring $R$ is the minimal number of proper subrings whose union is $R$. We establish a strategy to classify unital rings of a given finite covering number, and obtain a classification of unital rings…

In this note, we investigate the notion of $S$-flat preenvelopes of modules. In particular, we give an example that a ring $R$ being coherent does not imply that every $R$-module have an $S$-flat preenvelope, giving a negative answer to the…
