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…

Motivated by the concept of clean index of rings, we introduce the concept of weak clean index of rings. For any element $a$ of a ring $R$ with unity, we define $ \chi(a)=\{e\in R\mid e^2=e\text{ and }a-e \mbox{ or } a+e \mbox{ is a…

In this paper, we introduce and explore in-depth the notion of {\it weakly strongly 2-nil-clean rings} as a common non-trivial generalization of both strongly 2-nil-clean rings and strongly weakly nil-clean rings as defined and studied by…

Let $R$ be an associative ring with identity, $C(R)$ denote the center of $R$, and $g(x)$ be a polynomial in the polynomial ring $C(R)[x]$. $R$ is called strongly $g(x)$-clean if every element $r \in R$ can be written as $r=s+u$ with…

A ring $R$ is a UU ring if every unit is unipotent, or equivalently if every unit is a sum of a nilpotent and an idempotent that commute. These rings have been investigated in C\u{a}lug\u{a}reanu \cite{C} and in Danchev and Lam \cite{DL}.…

A ring $R$ is periodic provided that for any $a\ in R$ there exist distinct elements $m,n \in {\Bbb N}$ such that $a^m=a^n$. We shall prove that periodicity is inherited by a type of generalized matrix rings.We define strongly periodic…

We systematically study those rings whose non-units are a sum of an idempotent and a nilpotent. Some crucial characteristic properties are completely described as well as some structural results for this class of rings are obtained. This…

A ring $R$ is feckly clean provided that for any $a\in R$ there exists an element $e\in R$ and a full element $u\in R$ such that $a=e+u, eR(1-e)\subseteq J(R)$. We prove that a ring $R$ is feckly clean if and only if for any $a\in R$, there…

We study in-depth those rings $R$ for which, there exists a fixed $n\geq 1$, such that $u^n-1$ lies in the subring $\Delta(R)$ of $R$ for every unit $u\in R$. We succeeded to describe for any $n\geq 1$ all reduced $\pi$-regular…

Some variations of $\pi$-regular and nil clean rings were recently introduced in \cite{5,8,7}, respectively. In this paper, we examine the structure and relationships between these classes of rings. Specifically, we prove that $(m,…

Given a t.u.p.-semigroup (two unique product semigroup) $X$, we show if $R$ is an $X$-graded ring then both its nilradical and Jacobson radical are homogeneous. This partially answers questions of Smoktunowicz and Jespers.

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $S$ a multiplicative subset of $R$. In this paper, we introduce and study the notions of $S$-pure $S$-exact sequences and $S$-absolutely pure modules which extend the classical notions of pure…

An element of a ring $R$ is called strongly $J^{\#}$-clean provided that it can be written as the sum of an idempotent and an element in $J^{\#}(R)$ that commute. We characterize, in this article, the strongly $J^{\#}$-cleanness of matrices…

Question 3 of [3] asks whether the matrix ring Mn(R) is nil clean, for any nil clean ring R. It is shown that positive answer to this question is equivalent to positive solution for Kothe's problem in the class of algebras over the field…

Various authors have been generalizing some unital ring properties to nonunital rings. We consider properties related to cancellation of modules (being unit-regular, having stable range one, being directly finite, exchange, or clean) and…

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…

We are working in the category of commutative unital rings and denote by $\mathrm U(R)$ the group of units of a nonzero ring $R$. An extension of rings $R\subseteq S$, satisfying $\mathrm U(R)=R \cap\mathrm U(S)$ is usually called local.…

If $R$ is a regular and semiartinian ring, it is proved that the following conditions are equivalent: (1) $R$ is unit-regular, (2) every factor ring of $R$ is directly finite, (3) the abelian group $K_0(R)$ is free and admits a basis which…

In this paper, we introduce the concept of graded m-nil clean ring to extend the existing notion of graded nil-clean ring introduced in [10]. We explore fundamental properties of these rings, emphasizing the interplay between the identity…

Fix a prime number $p$. Inspired by the notion of $F$-pure or $F$-split singularities, we study the condition that a Noetherian ring with $p$ in its Jacobson radical is pure inside some perfectoid (classical) ring, a condition we call…
