Through this paper, we study the rings in which every unit's square is an element of the set $1+\sqrt{J(R)}$, and call them $2-\sqrt{J}U$ rings. Here, $\sqrt{J(R)}=\{x \in R: x^m \in J(R)$ for some $m \geq 1 \}$. We show that every…
Let R be a commutative ring with identity and N(R) be the set of all nilpotent elements of R. The aim of this paper is to introduce and study the notion of nil-prime ideals as a generalization of prime ideals. We say that a proper ideal P…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with $1\neq 0$ and $n$ be a fixed positive integer. A proper ideal $I$ of $R$ is said to be an \textit{$n$-OA ideal} if whenever $a_1a_2\cdots a_{n+1}\in I$ for some nonunits $a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_{n+1}\in R$, then…
We study the ring of all functions from the positive integers to some field. This ring, which we call \emph{the ring of number-theoretic functions}, is an inverse limit of the ``truncations'' \Gamma_n consisting of all functions f for which…
We visualize the identity p(n) = sum s(k) p(n-k)/n for the integer partition function p(n) involving the divisor function s, add comments on the history of visualizations of numbers, illustrate how different mathematical fields play…
Motivated by a question in origami, we consider sets of points in the complex plane constructed in the following way. Let $L_\alpha(p)$ be the line in the complex plane through $p$ with angle $\alpha$ (with respect to the real axis). Given…
Generalizing the concept of a perfect number is a Zumkeller or integer perfect number that was introduced by Zumkeller in 2003. The positive integer $n$ is a Zumkeller number if its divisors can be partitioned into two sets with the same…
Let I be a finitely supported complete m-primary ideal of a regular local ring (R, m). A theorem of Lipman implies that I has a unique factorization as a *-product of special *-simple complete ideals with possibly negative exponents for…
Suppose that $ m\equiv 1\mod 4 $ is a prime and that $ n\equiv 3\mod 4 $ is a primitive root modulo $ m $. In this paper we obtain a relation between the class number of the imaginary quadratic field $ \Q(\sqrt{-nm}) $ and the digits of the…
A nonempty finite set of positive integers A is relatively prime if gcd(A) = 1 and it is relatively prime to n if gcd(A [ fng) = 1. The number of nonempty subsets of A which are relatively prime to n is \Phi(A, n) and the number of such…
In this paper, we introduce the concept of a {\it triangular coefficient matrix ring} and investigate the structure of its ideals. We then characterize the radicals of the ring \( R_{h}[x]/\langle x^{n} \rangle \) for every positive integer…
In the first section of this paper, we introduce the notions of fractional and invertible ideals of semirings and characterize invertible ideals of a semidomain. In section two, we define Pr\"{u}fer semirings and characterize them in terms…
Let $k(G)$ be the number of conjugacy classes of finite groups $G$ and $\pi_e(G)$ be the set of the orders of elements in $G$. Then there exists a non-negative integer $k$ such that $k(G)=|\pi_e(G)|+k$. We call such groups to be $co(k)$…
We prove an assortment of results on (commutative and unital) NIP rings, especially $\mathbb{F}_p$-algebras. Let $R$ be a NIP ring. Then every prime ideal or radical ideal of $R$ is externally definable, and every localization $S^{-1}R$ is…
Finite elements, which are well-known and studied in the framework of vector lattices, are investigated in $\ell$-algebras, preferably in $f$-algebras, and in product algebras. The additional structure of an associative multiplication leads…
Julia Robinson has given a first-order definition of the rational integers $\mathbb Z$ in the rational numbers $\mathbb Q$ by a formula $(\forall \exists \forall \exists)(F=0)$ where the $\forall$-quantifiers run over a total of 8…
A well-known theorem of Wedderburn asserts that a finite division ring is commutative. In a division ring the group of invertible elements is as large as possible. Here we will be particularly interested in the case where this group is as…
It is known that for an IP^{*} set A in (\mathbb{N},+) and a sequence \left\langle x_{n}\right\rangle _{n=1}^{\infty} in \mathbb{N}, there exists a sum subsystem \left\langle y_{n}\right\rangle _{n=1}^{\infty} of \left\langle…
In this paper, we study arbitrary models of the first-order theory of a ring $A$ where the additive group $A$ is a finitely generated abelian group. Following an earlier paper by this author, Alexei G. Myasnikov and Francis Oger, we call…
We define the indefinite logarithm [log x] of a real number x>0 to be a mathematical object representing the abstract concept of the logarithm of x with an indeterminate base (i.e., not specifically e, 10, 2, or any fixed number). The…
