Let $R$ be a commutative unitary ring. An idempotent in $R$ is an element $e\in R$ with $e^2=e$. The Erd\H{o}s-Burgess constant associated with the ring $R$ is the smallest positive integer $\ell$ (if exists) such that for any given $\ell$…

In this paper, we consider five possible extensions of the Pr\"ufer domain notion to the case of commutative rings with zero-divisors. We investigate the transfer of these Pr\"ufer-like properties between a ring $R$ and $R\bowtie I$; his…

This work is a review of results about centrally essential rings and semirings. A ring (resp., semiring) is said to be centrally essential if it is either commutative or satisfy the property that for any non-central element $a$, there exist…

Let $R$ be a finite commutative unitary ring. An idempotent in $R$ is an element $e\in R$ with $e^2=e$. The Erd\H{o}s-Burgess constant associated with the ring $R$ is the smallest positive integer $\ell$ such that for any given $\ell$…

An element $a$ of a ring $R$ is called \emph{quasipolar} provided that there exists an idempotent $p\in R$ such that $p\in comm^2(a)$, $a+p\in U(R)$ and $ap\in R^{qnil}$. A ring $R$ is \emph{quasipolar} in case every element in $R$ is…

Let $\mathcal{H}_d^{(t)}$ ($t \geq -d$, $t>-3$) be the reproducing kernel Hilbert space on the unit ball $\mathbb{B}_d$ with kernel \[ k(z,w) = \frac{1}{(1-\langle z, w \rangle)^{d+t+1}} . \] We prove that if an ideal $I \triangleleft…

In the present article, we investigate the following deformation problem. Let $(R,\mathfrak m)$ be a local (graded local) Noetherian ring with a (homogeneous) regular element $y \in \mathfrak m$ and assume that $R/yR$ is quasi-Gorenstein.…

Kaplanski's Zero Divisor Conjecture envisions that for a torsion-free group G and an integral domain R, the group ring R[G] does not contain non-trivial zero divisors. We define the length of an element a in R[G] as the minimal non-negative…

We consider Ore extensions of the form $T:=R[x;\sigma,\delta]$ with $R$ a commutative integral domain that is finitely generated over a field $k$. We show that if $T$ has Gelfand-Kirillov dimension less than four then a prime ideal $P\in…

We begin by investigating the class of commutative unital rings in which no two distinct elements divide the same elements. We prove that this class forms a finitely axiomatizable, relatively ideal distributive quasivariety, and it equals…

A commutative ring $R$ is stable if every non-zero ideal $I$ of $R$ is projective over its ring of endomorphisms. Motivated by a paper of Bass in the 1960s, stable rings have received wide attention in the literature ever since then. Much…

We study several separation axioms for $X$-top-lattices (i.e. a lattice $L$ for which a given subset $X\subseteq L\backslash \{1\}$ admits a \emph{% Zariski-like topology}). Such spaces are $T_{0}$ and usually far away from being $T_{2}.$…

Let $R$ be an integral domain. For elements $a,b \in R$, let $[a,b]$ denote their greatest common divisor, if it exists. We say that $R$ has the Z-property if whenever $a,b,c,d$ and $e$ are nonzero nonunits of $R$ such that $abc=de$, then…

In this paper, for a fixed integer $k\ge 2$, we study the probability that the product of $k$ randomly chosen elements in a finite commutative ring $R$ is zero, which we denote by $zp_{_k}(R)$. We investigate bounds for $zp_{_k}(R)$ that…

The behavior of fermionic systems depends on the geometry of the system and the symmetry class of the Hamiltonian and observables. Almost commuting matrices arise from band-projected position observables in such systems. One expects the…

A quasi-representation of a group is a map from the group into a matrix algebra (or similar object) that approximately satisfies the relations needed to be a representation. Work of many people starting with Kazhdan and Voiculescu, and…

A proper ideal $I$ in a commutative ring with unity is called a $z^\circ$-ideal if for each $a$ in $I$, the intersection of all minimal prime ideals in $R$ which contain $a$ is contained in $I$. For any totally ordered field $F$ and a…

For a commutative domain $R$ with nonzero identity and $I$ an ideal of $R$, we say $a=\lambda b_1 \cdots b_k$ is a $\tau_I$-factorization of $a$ if $\lambda \in R$ is a unit and $b_i \equiv b_j$(mod $I$) for all $1\leq i \leq j \leq k$.…

Let $\mathcal{Z(R)}$ be the set of zero divisor elements of a commutative ring $R$ with identity and $\mathcal{M}$ be the space of minimal prime ideals of $R$ with Zariski topology. An ideal $I$ of $R$ is called strongly dense ideal or…

We show that the algebraic K-theory of semi-valuation rings with stably coherent regular semi-fraction ring satisfies homotopy invariance. Moreover, we show that these rings are regular if their valuation is non-trivial. Thus they yield…
