Rings generated by idempotents and nilpotents

Rings and Algebras 2022-02-07 v1

Abstract

We present new characterizations of the rings in which every element is the sum of two idempotents and a nilpotent that commute, and the rings in which every element is the sum of two tripotents and a nilpotent that commute. We prove that such rings are completely determined by the additive decompositions of their square elements.
