Let R be a 2 torsion free semiprime ring and d a nonzero derivation. Further let A = O(R) be the orthogonal completion of R and B = B(C) the Boolean ring of C where C be the extended centroid of R. We show that if a[[d(x),x]^n- [y,…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. An element $r \in R$ is said to be absolutely irreducible in $R$ if for all natural numbers $n>1$, $r^n$ has essentially only one factorization namely $r^n = r \cdots r$. If $r \in R$ is…

Let $R$ be a ring and let $J(R)$, $C(R)$ be its Jacobson radical and center, correspondingly. If $R$ is a centrally essential ring and the factor ring $R/J(R)$ is commutative, then any minimal right ideal is contained in the center $C(R)$.…

A ring $R$ with center $C$ is said to be\textit{centrally essential} if the module $R_C$ is an essential extension of the module $C_C$. We describe centrally essential exterior algebras of finitely generated free modules over not necessary…

We consider in-depth and characterize in certain aspects those rings whose non-units are strongly nil-clean in the sense that they are a sum of commuting nilpotent and idempotent. In addition, we examine those rings in which the non-units…

A ring R is a strongly 2-nil-clean if every element in R is the sum of two idempotents and a nilpotent that commute. A ring R is feebly clean if every element in R is the sum of two orthogonal idempotents and a unit. In this paper, strongly…

A ring $R$ is nil-clean if every element in $R$ is the sum of an idempotent and a nilpotent. A ring $R$ is abelian if every idempotent is central. We prove that if $R$ is abelian then $M_n(R)$ is nil-clean if and only if $R/J(R)$ is Boolean…

We define and explore the class of rings $R$ for which each element in $R$ is a sum of a tripotent element from $R$ and an element from the subring $\Delta(R)$ of $R$ which commute each other. Succeeding to obtain a complete description of…

We say that a commutative ring R satisfies the restricted minimum (RM) condition if for all essential ideals I in R, factor R/I is an Artinian ring. We will focus on Noetherian reduced rings because in this setting known results for RM…

We define and consider in-depth the so-called $C\Delta$ rings as those rings $R$ whose elements are a sum of an element in $C(R)$ and of an element in $\Delta(R)$. Our achieved results somewhat strengthen these recently obtained by…

Motivated by the concept of weakly clean rings, we introduce the concept of weakly $r$-clean rings. We define an element $x$ of a ring $R$ as weakly $r$-clean if it can be expressed as $x=r+e$ or $x=r-e$ where $e$ is an idempotent and $r$…

In this article, we introduce the weak ideal-Armendariz ring which combines Armendariz ring and weakly semicommutative properties of rings. In fact, it is a generalisation of an ideal-Armendariz ring. We investigate some properties of weak…

An element of a ring R is called clean if it is the sum of an idempotent and a unit. A ring R is called clean if each of its element is clean. An element r \in R called regular if r = ryr for some y \in R. The ring R is regular if each of…

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…

Let $a$ be a regular element of a ring $R$. If either $K:=\rm{r}_R(a)$ has the exchange property or every power of $a$ is regular, then we prove that for every positive integer $n$ there exist decompositions $$ R_R = K \oplus X_n \oplus Y_n…

A centrally essential ring is a ring which is an essential extension of its center (we consider the ring as a module over its center). We give several examples of noncommutative centrally essential rings and describe some properties of…

This paper investigates key properties of ZINC rings and their relationships with semicommutative and weakly semicommutative rings. We call an element $x$ of a ring $R$ zero insertive if $x=arb$ for some $a,b,r\in R$ such that $ab=0$ and…

In a recent paper of Alahmadi, Alkan and Lopez-Permouth, a ring R is defined to have no (simple) middle class if the injectivity domain of any (simple) R-module is the smallest or largest possible. Er, Lopez-Permouth and Sokmez use this…

Let $R$ be a finite commutative local principal ring of cardinality $q^n$, where $q = p^r$ for an odd prime $p$ and integer $r$ with $R/J(R) \simeq GF(q)$. We determine the number of elements in the quaternion ring $H(R)$ that can be…

In this note we answer the question raised by Han et al. in J. Korean Math. Soc (2014) whether an idempotent isomorphic to a semicentral idempotent is itself semicentral. We show that rings with this property are precisely the…
