We investigate the structure of locally finite profinite rings. We classify (Jacobson-) semisimple locally finite profinite rings as products of complete matrix rings of bounded cardinality over finite fields, and we prove that the Jacobson radical of any locally finite profinite ring is nil of finite nilexponent. Our results apply to the context of small compact G-rings, where we also obtain a...

We construct a nil ring R which has bounded index of nilpotence 2, is Wedderburn radical, and is commutative, and which also has a derivation δ for which the differential polynomial ring R[x; δ] is not even prime radical. This example gives a strong barrier to lifting certain radical properties from rings to differential polynomial rings. It also demarcates the strength of recent results about ...

The notion of the square submodule of a module M over an arbitrary commutative ring R, which is denoted by RM, was introduced by Aghdam and Najafizadeh in [3]. In fact, RM is the R−submodule of M generated by the images of all bilinear maps on M. Furthermore, given a submodule N of an R−module M, we say that M is nil modulo N if μ(M×M) ≤ N for all bilinear maps μ on M. The main question about t...

A ring R is called strongly clean if every element of R is the sum of a unit and an idempotent that commute. By SRC factorization, Borooah, Diesl, and Dorsey [3] completely determined when Mn(R) over a commutative local ring R is strongly clean. We generalize the notion of SRC factorization to commutative rings, prove that commutative n-SRC rings (n ≥ 2) are precisely the commutative local ring...

The following theorem is proved: Let R be an algebra with involution over an uncountable field F. Then if the symmetric elements of R are algebraic, R is algebraic. In this paper we consider the following question: "Let R be an algebra with involution over a field F, and assume that the symmetric elements S of R are algebraic over F. Is R algebraic over FT* Previous results related to this ques...

A new class of rings, the class of weakly left localizable rings, is introduced. A ring R is called weakly left localizable if each non-nilpotent element of R is invertible in some left localization SR of the ring R. Explicit criteria are given for a ring to be a weakly left localizable ring provided the ring has only finitely many maximal left denominator sets (eg, this is the case if a ring h...

Every virtually cyclic group Γ that surjects onto the infinite dihedral group D∞ contains an index two subgroup Π of the form H ⋊α Z. We show that the Waldhausen Nil-group of Γ vanishes if and only if the Farrell Nil-group of Π vanishes. 1. Statement of results. The Bass Nil-groups, Farrell Nil-groups, and Waldhausen Nil-groups appear respectively as pieces in the computation of the algebraicK-...

Given a semigroup S, we prove that if the upper nilradical Nil∗(R) is homogeneous whenever R is an S-graded ring, then the semigroup S must be cancelative and torsion-free. In case S is commutative the converse is true. Analogs of these results are established for other radicals and ideals. We also describe a large class of semigroups S with the property that whenever R is a Jacobson radical ri...

We call a ring R generalized uniquely clean (or GUC for short) if every not invertible element in is clean. Let be ring. It shown that and only it local or Thus the generalization of Some basic properties rings are proved.
