A ring $R$ is called strongly clean if every element of $R$ is the sum of a unit and an idempotent that commute. By {\rm SRC} factorization, Borooah, Diesl, and Dorsey \cite{BDD051} completely determined when ${\mathbb M}_n(R)$ over a…

In this note, we show that a ring $R$ is $S$-coherent if and only if every finitely presented $R$-module is $S$-coherent, providing a positive answer to a question proposed in [D. Bennis, M. El Hajoui, {\it On $S$-coherence}, J. Korean…

A ring $R$ is called left $k$-cyclic if every left $R$-module is a direct sum of indecomposable modules which are homomorphic image of $_{R}R^k$. In this paper, we give a characterization of left $k$-cyclic rings. As a consequence, we give…

In this paper we deal with the problem of computing the sum of the $k$-th powers of all the elements of the matrix ring $\mathbb{M}_d(R)$ with $d>1$ and $R$ a finite commutative ring. We completely solve the problem in the case…

We establish a characterization of dualizing modules among semidualizing modules. Let R be a finite dimensional commutative Noetherian ring with identity and C a semidualizing R-module. We show that C is a dualizing R-module if and only if…

We show that the cosupport of a commutative noetherian ring is precisely the set of primes appearing in a minimal pure-injective resolution of the ring. As an application of this, we prove that every countable commutative noetherian ring…

It is shown that a commutative B\'ezout ring $R$ with compact minimal prime spectrum is an elementary divisor ring if and only if so is $R/L$ for each minimal prime ideal $L$. This result is obtained by using the quotient space…

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.

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…

A ring $R$ is called strongly clean if every element of $R$ is the sum of a unit and an idempotent that commute with each other. A recent result of Borooah, Diesl and Dorsey \cite{BDD05a} completely characterized the commutative local rings…

An exchange ring $R$ is separative provided that for all finitely generated projective right $R$-modules $A$ and $B$, $A\oplus A\cong A\oplus B\cong B\oplus B\Longrightarrow A\cong B$. Let $R$ be a separative exchange ring in which $2$ is…

In order to find a suitable expression of an arbitrary square matrix over an arbitrary finite commutative ring, we prove that every such a matrix is always representable as a sum of a potent matrix and a nilpotent matrix of order at most…

An $R$-module $M$ is called virtually uniserial if for every finitely generated submodule $0 \neq K \subseteq M$, $K/$Rad$(K)$ is virtually simple. In this paper, we generalize virtually uniserial modules by dropping the virtually simple…

This paper introduces a new approach to associating a graph with a commutative ring. Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. The unit-zero divisor graph of a commutative ring $R$, denoted by $G_{UZ}(R)$, offers a novel framework for…

Researchers introduced the notion of j-Artinian rings in [3] and obtained significant results concerning this new class of rings. Motivated by their definition and findings, we extend the study to modules by introducing the concept of…

Let $R$ be a Noetherian commutative ring of dimension $n$, $A=R[X_1,\cdots,X_m]$ be a polynomial ring over $R$ and $P$ be a projective $A[T]$-module of rank $n$. Assume that $P/TP$ and $P_f$ both contain a unimodular element for some monic…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $E$ the minimal injective cogenerator of the category of $R$-modules. An $R$-module $M$ is (Matlis) reflexive if the natural evaluation map $M \to…

We prove conditions ensuring that a Lie ideal or an invariant additive subgroup in a ring contains all additive commutators. A crucial assumption is that the subgroup is fully noncentral, that is, its image in every quotient is noncentral.…

We describe all possible ways how a ring can be expressed as the union of three of its proper subrings. This is an analogue for rings of a 1926 theorem of Scorza about groups. We then determine the minimal number of proper subrings of the…

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,…
