for an arbitrary ring $r$, the zero-divisor graph of $r$, denoted by $gamma (r)$, is an undirected simple graph that its vertices are all nonzero zero-divisors of $r$ in which any two vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if either $xy=0$ or $yx=0$. it is well-known that for any commutative ring $r$, $gamma (r) cong gamma (t(r))$ where $t(r)$ is the (total) quotient ring of $r$. in this...

let r be a prime ring with extended centroid c, h a generalized derivation of r and n ⩾ 1 a xed integer. in this paper we study the situations: (1) if (h(xy))n = (h(x))n(h(y))n for all x; y 2 r; (2) obtain some related result in case r is a noncommutative banach algebra and h is continuous or spectrally bounded.

a ring $r$ is a strongly clean ring if every element in $r$ is the sum of an idempotent and a unit that commutate. we construct some classes of strongly clean rings which have stable range one. it is shown that such cleanness of $2 imes 2$ matrices over commutative local rings is completely determined in terms of solvability of quadratic equations.

Measuring infiltration at the plot scale is difficult, especially for high hydraulic conductivity soils. At the plot scale, the infiltration rate is usually calculated by comparing surface runoff to rainfall. Direct measurement of infiltration beyond the point scale is typically limited to locations where land forming (e.g., infiltration pond) has been performed or fields with basin irrigation ...

in this paper we define a new type of rings ”almost powerhermitian rings” (a generalization of almost hermitian rings) and establish several sufficient conditions over a ring r such that, every regular matrix admits a diagonal power-reduction.

The interactive influence of furrow surface seal formation and surge irrigation (intermittent flow) on furrow infiltration into a Portneuf silt loam soil was measured with a recirculating infiltrometer. When the formation of a surface seal was prevented by a layer of cheesecloth laid on the furrow perimeter, flow interruption increased furrow bed bulk density by 100 kg/m 3 and decreased infiltr...

let $r$ be a ring‎, ‎and let $n‎, ‎d$ be non-negative integers‎. ‎a right $r$-module $m$ is called $(n‎, ‎d)$-projective if $ext^{d+1}_r(m‎, ‎a)=0$ for every $n$-copresented right $r$-module $a$‎. ‎$r$ is called right $n$-cocoherent if every $n$-copresented right $r$-module is $(n+1)$-coprese-nted‎, ‎it is called a right co-$(n,d)$-ring if every right $r$-module is $(n‎, ‎d)$-projective‎. ‎$r$ ...
