We consider in-depth and characterize in certain aspects the class of so-called {\it strongly NUS-nil clean rings}, that are those rings whose non-units are {\it square nil-clean} in the sense that they are a sum of a nilpotent and a…

A ring is *unit-additive* if a sum of units is always either a unit or nilpotent. For example, $k[X]$ and $k[X]/(X^2)$ are unit-additive, but $\mathbb Z$ is not. We prove a wide-ranging theorem about unit-additivity in semigroup rings,…

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,…

The purpose of this paper is to give a partial positive answer to a question raised by Khurana et al. as to whether a ring $R$ with stable range one and central units is commutative. We show that this is the case under any of the following…

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…

In this paper, we introduce a class of quasipolar rings which is a generalization of $J$-quasipolar rings. Let $R$ be a ring with identity. An element $a \in R$ is called {\it $\delta$-quasipolar} if there exists $p^2 = p\in comm^2(a)$ such…

The index of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra $g$ is the minimum of dimensions of stabilisers $g_\alpha$ of elements $\alpha\in g^*$. Let $g$ be a reductive Lie algebra and $z(x)$ a centraliser of a nilpotent element $x\in g$. Elashvili has…

We prove Yun's minimal reduction conjecture for all classical groups. More precisely, for any topologically nilpotent regular semisimple element $\gamma$, we show that the associated minimal reduction set…

Let $R$ be a ring and $Z(R)$ be the center of $R.$ The aim of this paper is to define the notions of centrally extended Jordan derivations and centrally extended Jordan $\ast$-derivations, and to prove some results involving these mappings.…

In a paper on the taxonomy of 2-primal rings, examples of various types of rings that are related to commutativity such as reduced, symmetric, duo, reversible and PS~I were given in order to show that the ring class inclusions were strict.…

A commutative ring $R$ is J-stable provided that for any $a\not\in J(R)$, $R/aR$ has stable range one. A ring $R$ is called an elementary divisor ring if every $m\times n$ matrix over $R$ admits diagonal reduction. We prove that a J-stabe…

We introduce and study a nontrivial generalization of uniserial modules and rings. A module is called weakly uniserial if its submodules are comparable regarding embedding. Also, a right (resp., left) weakly uniserial ring is a ring which…

In this paper, we define and study a particular case of von Neumann regular notion called a weak von Neumann regular ring. It shown that the polynomial ring $R[x]$ is weak von Neumann regular if and only if $R$ has exactly two idempotent…

Let R be a ring (not necessarily with 1) and G be a finite group of automorphisms of R. The set B(R, G) of primes p such that p | |G| and R is not p-torsion free, is called the set of bad primes. When the ring is |G|-torsion free, i.e.,…

The reduced ring order (rr-order) is a natural partial order on a reduced ring $R$ given by $r\le_{\text{rr}} s$ if $r^2=rs$. It can be studied algebraically or topologically in rings of the form $\text{C}(X)$. The focus here is on those…

The class of nil-essential ideals is a generalisation of the class of essential ideals. Every nil-essential ideal of a reduced ring is essential. Therefore the intersection of all nil-essential ideals over a reduced ring $R$ is the socle of…

A ring R is said to be VNL if for any a in R, either a or 1-a is (von Neumann) regular. The class of VNL rings lies properly between the exchange rings and (von Neumann) regular rings. We characterize abelian VNL rings. We also characterize…

Let $R_n(G)$ denotes the set of all right $n$-Engel elements of a group $G$. We show that in any group $G$ whose 5th term of lower central series has no element of order 2, $R_3(G)$ is a subgroup. Furthermore we prove that $R_4(G)$ is a…

The main goal of this article is to introduce the concept of $EM-G-$graded rings. This concept is an extension of the notion of $EM-$rings. Let $G$ be a group and $R$ be a $G-$graded commutative ring. The $G-$gradation of $R$ can be…

The target of the present work is to give a new insight in the theory of {\it strongly weakly nil-clean} rings, recently defined by Kosan and Zhou in the Front. Math. China (2016) and further explored in detail by Chen-Sheibani in the J.…
