We show that a ring $\,R\,$ has two idempotents $\,e,e'\,$ with an invertible commutator $\,ee'-e'e\,$ if and only if $\,R \cong {\mathbb M}_2(S)\,$ for a ring $\,S\,$ in which $\,1\,$ is a sum of two units. In this case, the…
We study the units in a tensor product of rings. For example, let k be an algebraically closed field. Let A and B be reduced rings containing k, having connected spectra. Let u \in A tensor_k B be a unit. Then u = a tensor_k b for some…
We find necessary and sufficient conditions for the finite separability of finitely generated commutative rings. Namely, we prove that every such ring is a finite extension of its torsion ideal $I_k$ where $k$ is square-free, and $I_k$ is a…
We show that if a groupoid graded ring has a certain nonzero ideal property and the principal component of the ring is commutative, then the intersection of a nonzero twosided ideal of the ring with the commutant of the principal component…
The product matrix of a finite commutative ring $R=\{x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n\}$ and an element $u \in R$ is the matrix $A_u(R)=[a_{ij}]$, where $a_{ij}=1$ if $x_ix_j=u$, and $a_{ij}=0$ otherwise. This provides a natural extension of the concept…
Recognizing when a ring is a complete matrix ring is of significant importance in algebra. It is well-known folklore that a ring $R$ is a complete $n\times n$ matrix ring, so $R\cong M_{n}(S)$ for some ring $S$, if and only if it contains a…
The supremum of reduction numbers of ideals having principal reductions is expressed in terms of the integral degree, a new invariant of the ring, which is finite provided the ring has finite integral closure. As a consequence, one obtains…
This paper introduces and studies nil-reversible rings wherein we call a ring R nil-reversible if the left and right annihilators of every nilpotent element of R are equal. Reversible rings (and hence reduced rings) form a proper subclass…
Let $R=k[x,y,z]$ be a standard graded $3$-variable polynomial ring, where $k$ denotes any field. We study grade $3$ homogeneous ideals $I \subseteq R$ defining compressed rings with socle $k(-s) \oplus k(-2s+1)$, where $s \geq3$ is some…
Let G be a reductive affine group scheme defined over a semilocal ring k. Assume that either G is semisimple or k is normal and noetherian. We show that G has a finite k-subgroup S such that the natural map H^1(R, S) --> H^1(R, G) is…
A semiring is uniserial if its ideals are totally ordered by inclusion. First, we show that a semiring $S$ is uniserial if and only if the matrix semiring $M_n(S)$ is uniserial. As a generalization of valuation semirings, we also…
In this article, we introduce the notion of uniformly S-projective (u-S-projective) relative to a module. Let S be a multiplicative subset of a ring R and M an R-module. An R-module P is said to be u-S-projective relative to M if for any…
A commutative ring $R$ is stable provided every ideal of $R$ containing a nonzerodivisor is projective as a module over its ring of endomorphisms. The class of stable rings includes the one-dimensional local Cohen-Macaulay rings of…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with non-zero identity. We describe all $C_3$- and $C_4$-free intersection graph of non-trivial ideals of $R$ as well as $C_n$-free intersection graph when $R$ is a reduced ring. Also, we shall describe all…
It is shown that a ring is left semihereditary if and only each homomorphic image of its injective hull as left module is FP-injective. It is also proven that a commutative ring R is reduced and arithmetical if and only if E/U if…
In this paper we continue our study of annihilating-ideal graph of commutative rings, that was introduced in Part I (see [5]). Let $R$ be a commutative ring with ${\Bbb{A}}(R)$ its set of ideals with nonzero annihilator and $Z(R)$ its set…
For $a\in R$, let $P_a$ denote the intersection of all minimal prime ideals of $R$ containing $a$. An ideal $I$ of a ring $R$ is called a $z^{\circ}$-ideal if $P_a\subseteq I$ for all $a\in I$. In this paper, we first investigate the class…
Let R be a commutative ring with unit and let I be an ideal generated by a regular sequence. Then it is known that the natural sequences 0-> Tor_*^R(R/I,I^s)-> Tor_*^R(R/I,I^s/I^{s+1})-> Tor_{*-1}^R(R/I,I^{s+1})-> 0 are short exact…
Given positive integers e and s we consider Gorenstein Artinian local rings R of embedding dimension e whose maximal ideal $\mathfrak{m}$ satisfies $\mathfrak{m}^s\ne 0=\mathfrak{m}^{s+1}$. We say that R is a compressed Gorenstein local…
Let $I\subseteq S=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ be a homogeneous ideal equipped with a monomial order $<$. We show that if $\operatorname{in}_<(I)$ is a square-free monomial ideal, then $S/I$ and $S/\operatorname{in}_<(I)$ have the same connectedness…
