We study rings $R$ for which whenever non-zero polynomials $f(x)$ and $g(x)$ satisfy $f(x)g(x)f(x)=0$, it implies that there is a non-zero element $r\in R$ such that $f(x)rf(x)=0$. We call such rings inner McCoy rings. We explore some…

We introduce Central McCoy rings, which are a generalization of McCoy rings and investigate their properties. For a ring R, we prove that R is right Central McCoy if and only if the polynomial ring R[x] is right Central McCoy. Also, we give…

Let $R$ be a ring, $\sigma$ an endomorphism of $R$, $I$ a right ideal in $S=R[x;\sigma]$ and $M_R$ a right $R$-module. We give a generalization of McCoy's Theorem \cite{mccoy}, by showing that, if $r_S(I)$ is $\sigma$-stable or…

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…

We define here the notion of a {\it weakly reversible ring} $R$ saying that a non-zero element $a\in R$ is weakly reversible if there exists an integer $m>0$ depending on $a$ such that $a^m\neq 0$ is reversible, that is,…

Let $\alpha$ be an endomorphism of a ring $R$. We introduce the notion of weak $\alpha$-skew McCoy rings which are a generalization of the $\alpha$-skew McCoy rings and the weak McCo rings. Some properties of this generalization are…

A skew polynomial ring $R=K[x;\sigma,\delta]$ is a ring of polynomials with non-commutative multiplication. This creates a difference between left and right divisibility, and thus a concept of left and right evaluations and roots. A…

A ring $R$ is said to be i-reversible if for every $a,b$ $\in$ $R$, $ab$ is a non-zero idempotent implies $ba$ is an idempotent. It is known that the rings $M_n(R)$ and $T_n(R)$ (the ring of all upper triangular matrices over $R$) are not…

Birkenmeier and Heider, in [2], say that a ring R is right cP-Baer if the right annihilator of a cyclic projective right R-module in R is generated by an idempotent. These rings are a generalization of the right p.q.-Baer and abelian rings.…

Symmetric rings were introduced by Lambek to extend usual commutative ideal theory in noncommutative rings. In this paper, we study symmetric rings over which Ore extensions are symmetric. A ring R is called strongly \sigma-symmetric if the…

We call a ring $R$ NJ-symmetric if $abc\in N(R)$ implies $bac\in J(R)$ for any $a,b,c\in R$. Some classes of rings that are NJ-symmetric include left (right) quasi-duo rings, weak symmetric rings, and abelian J-clean rings. We observe that…

A ring is called a commutator ring if every element is a sum of additive commutators. In this paper we give examples of such rings. In particular, we show that given any ring R, a right R-module N, and a set X, End_R(\bigoplus_X N) and…

We show that there exist noncommutative Ore extensions in which every right ideal is two-sided. This answers a problem posed by Marks in Duo Rings and Ore extensions, J.Algebra 280(2), (2004). We also provide an easy construction of one…

This paper introduces a class of rings called left nil zero semicommutative rings ( LNZS rings ), wherein a ring R is said to be LNZS if the left annihilator of every nilpotent element of R is an ideal of R. It is observed that reduced…

An $n\times n$ real matrix $Q$ is quasi-orthogonal if $Q^{\top}Q=qI_{n}$ for some positive real number $q$. If $M$ is a principal sub-matrix of a quasi-orthogonal matrix $Q$, we say that $Q$ is a quasi-orthogonal extension of $M$. In a…

In this paper we prove that one-sided Duo rings are (two-sided) McCoy. By doing so, we are then able to explicitly describe some of these ring element annihilators of polynomials in McCoy rings. We conclude the paper by showing the place of…

Let A be a commutative ring and E a non-zero A-module. Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the trivial ring extension R of A by E to be either arithmetical or Gaussian. The possibility for R to be B{\'e}zout is also studied,…

Let $R$ be a ring, $(S,\preceq)$ a strictly totally ordered monoid and suppose also $\omega:S\rightarrow \text{End}(R)$ is a monoid homomorphism. A skew generalized power series ring $R[[S,\omega,\preceq]]$ consists of all functions from a…

Goldie's Theorem (1960), which is one of the most important results in Ring Theory, is a criterion for a ring to have a semisimple left quotient ring. The aim of the paper is to give four new criteria (using a completely different approach…

There are two kinds of polynomial functions on matrix algebras over commutative rings: those induced by polynomials with coefficients in the algebra itself and those induced by polynomials with scalar coefficients. In the case of algebras…
