Let B be a ring and $A=B[X,Y]/(aX^2+bXY+cY^2-1)$ where $a,b,c\in B$. We study the smoothness of A over B, and the regularity of B when B is a ring of algebraic integers.
A unital ring is called clean (resp. strongly clean) if every element can be written as the sum of an invertible element and an idempotent (resp. an invertible element and an idempotent that commutes). T.Y. Lam proposed a question: which…
Both the classes of $R$-coneat injective modules and its superclass, pure Baer injective modules, are shown to be preenveloping. The former class is contained in another one, namely, self coneat injectives, i.e. modules $M$ for which every…
In this paper, we prove that the semigroups of invertible matrices with nonnegative elements over linearly oredered associative rings are elementarily equivalent if and only if the matrices have the same dimension and the rings are…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. The ring $R\times R$ can be viewed as an extension of $R$ via the diagonal map $\Delta: R \hookrightarrow R\times R$, given by $\Delta(r) = (r, r)$ for all $r\in R$. It is shown that, for any $a,…
In this paper we prove that every automorphism of the semigroup of invertible matrices with nonnegative elements over a linearly oredered associative ring on some specially defined subgroup concides with the composition of an inner…
For commutative rings with identity, we introduce and study the concept of semi $r$-ideals which is a kind of generalization of both $r$-ideals and semiprime ideals. A proper ideal $I$ of a commutative ring $R$ is called semi $r$-ideal if…
Let $R$ be a unital ring with involution. We give several characterizations and properties of core partial order in $R$. In particular, we investigate the reverse order law $(ab)^{\tiny\textcircled{\tiny\#}} = b^{\tiny\textcircled{\tiny\#}}…
In this paper, we introduce a new generalization of weakly prime ideals called $I$-prime. Suppose $R$ is a commutative ring with identity and $I$ a fixed ideal of $R$. A proper ideal $P$ of $R$ is $I$-prime if for $a, b \in R$ with $ab \in…
In the present work, a procedure for determining idempotents of a commutative ring having a sequence of ideals with certain properties is presented. As an application of this procedure, idempotent elements of various commutative rings are…
Let $R$ be an associative ring with identity and let $N$ be a nil ideal of $R$. It is shown that units of $R/N$ can be lifted to units in $R$. Under some mild conditions on the ring, a procedure is given to determine those lifted units in a…
Semiprime ideals of an arbitrary Leavitt path algebra L are described in terms of their generators. This description is then used to show that the semiprime ideals form a complete sublattice of the lattice of ideals of L, and they enjoy a…
Let $R$ be a ring with identity and $J(R)$ be its Jacobson radical. Assume that $a\in R$ is $(b,c)$-invertible and $j_a,j_b,j_c\in J(R)$. This paper provides necessary and sufficient conditions for $a+j_a$ to be $(b+j_b,c+j_c)$-invertible.…
A semiring generalises the notion of a ring, replacing the additive abelian group structure with that of a commutative monoid. In this paper, we study a notion positioned between a ring and a semiring -- a semiring whose additive monoid is…
In this paper, all rings are commutative with nonzero identity. Let $M$ be an $R$-module. A proper submodule $N$ of $M$ is called a classical prime submodule, if for each $m\in M$ and elements $a,b\in R$, $abm\in N$ implies that $am\in N$…
Many classical ring-theoretic results state that an ideal that is maximal with respect to satisfying a special property must be prime. We present a "Prime Ideal Principle" that gives a uniform method of proving such facts, generalizing the…
In this paper, we investigate some properties of annihilator $(b,c)$-inverses in an arbitrary ring. We demonstrate that one-sided annihilator $(b,c)$-inverses of elements in arbitrary rings may behave differently in contrast to one-sided…
We consider the general linear group as an invariant of von Neumann factors. We prove that up to complement, a set consisting of all idempotents generating the same right ideal admits a characterisation in terms of properties of the general…
Let $R$ be a ring and $S$ a multiplicative subset of $R$. Then $R$ is called a uniformly $S$-Noetherian ($u$-$S$-Noetherian for abbreviation) ring provided there exists an element $s\in S$ such that for any ideal $I$ of $R$, $sI \subseteq…
Flat modules play an important role in the study of the category of modules over rings and in the characterization of some classes of rings. We study the e-flatness for semimodules introduced by the first author using his new notion of…
