Let R be a ring (not necessarily commutative ring) with identity. The clean graph Cl(R) of a ring R is a graph with vertices in the form of ordered pair (e; u), where e is an idempotent of the ring R and u is a unit of the ring R. Two…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with non-zero identity. In this paper, we introduce the concept of weakly $J$-ideals as a new generalization of $J$-ideals. We call a proper ideal $I$ of a ring $R$ a weakly $J$-ideal if whenever $a,b\in R$…

An order is a commutative ring that as an abelian group is finitely generated and free. A commutative ring is reduced if it has no non-zero nilpotent elements. In this paper we use a new tool, namely, the fact that every reduced order has a…

The three famous problems concerning units, zero-divisors and idempotents in group rings of torsion-free groups, commonly attributed to I. Kaplansky, have been around for more than 60 years and still remain open in characteristic zero. In…

In this paper, we investigate semirings whose elements are either units or zero-divisors (nilpotents) with many examples. While comparing these semirings with their counterparts in ring theory, we observe that their behavior is different in…

It is proved that a commutative ring is clean if and only if it is Gelfand with a totally disconnected maximal spectrum. Commutative rings for which each indecomposable module has a local endomorphism ring are studied. These rings are clean…

The purpose of the present paper is to continue the study of modules cofinite and weakly cofinite with respect to an ideal $\frak a$ of a Noetherian ring $R$. It is shown that an $R$-module $M$ is cofinite with respect to $\frak a$, if and…

We give an elementary proof of a result which is not as well known as it should be: a ring with a specified finite number of zero divisors is finite, with a precise bound on its order.

In this paper, we introduce a new class of rings whose elements are a sum of a central element and a nilpotent element, namely, a ring $R$ is called$CN$ if each element $a$ of $R$ has a decomposition $a = c + n$ where $c$ is central and $n$…

We define two types of rings, namely the so-called CSNC and NCUC that are those rings whose clean elements are strongly nil-clean, respectively, whose nil-clean elements are uniquely clean. Our results obtained in this paper somewhat expand…

In this article, we have defined nil clean graph of a ring $R$. The vertex set is the ring $R$, two ring elements $a$ and $b$ are adjacent if and only if $a + b$ is nil clean in $R$. Graph theoretic properties like girth, dominating set,…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unity and $C$ be an $R$-coalgebra. The ring $R$ is clean if every $ r\in R $ is the sum of a unit and an idempotent element of $R$. An $R$-module $M$ is clean if the endomorphism ring of $M$ over $R$ is…

The paper develops further the theory of quandle rings which was introduced by the authors in a recent work. Orderability of quandles is defined and many interesting examples of orderable quandles are given. It is proved that quandle rings…

Let $R$ be a ring. An $R$-module $M$ is said to be a weak $w$-projective module if ${\rm Ext}_R^1(M,N)=0$ for all $N \in \mathcal{P}_{w}^{\dagger_\infty}$ (see, \cite{FLQ}). In this paper, we introduce and study some properties of weak…

Let $R$ be a ring with unity. The cozero-divisor graph of a ring $R$ is an undirected simple graph whose vertices are the set of all non-zero and non-unit elements of $R$ and two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $x…

We prove that an integral Jacobson radical ring is always nil, which extends a well known result from algebras over fields to rings. As a consequence we show that if every element x of a ring R is a zero of some polynomial p_x with integer…

Let $R$ be a ring with unity. The clean graph $\text{Cl}(R)$ of a ring $R$ is the simple undirected graph whose vertices are of the form $(e,u)$, where $e$ is an idempotent element and $u$ is a unit of the ring $R$ and two vertices $(e,u)$,…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with a non-zero identity, $S$ be a multiplicatively closed subset of $R$ and $M$ be a unital $R$-module. In this paper, we define a submodule $N$ of $M$ with $(N:_{R}M)\cap S=\emptyset$ to be weakly $S$-primary…

A set $M$ of nonzero integers is said to split a finite abelian group $G$ if there exists a subset $S\subseteq G$ such that $M\cdot S = G\setminus\{0\}$. Such a splitting is called purely singular if every prime divisor of $|G|$ divides…

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…
