We prove that every approximate linear left derivation on a semisimple Banach algebra is continuous. Also, we consider linear derivations on Banach algebras and we first study the conditions for a linear derivation on a Banach algebra. Then we examine the functional inequalities related to a linear derivation and their stability. We finally take central linear derivations with radical ranges on...

We investigate antihomomorphic images and pre images of semiprime, strongly primary, irreducible and strongly irreducible fuzzy ideals of a ring. We also prove that: For a surjective anti-homomorphism f : R → R, if every fuzzy ideal of R is f -invariant and has a fuzzy primary (respectively, strongly primary) decomposition in R, then every fuzzy ideal of R has a fuzzy primary (respectively, str...

We extend the notion of the Leavitt path algebra of a graph E to include all directed graphs. We show how various ring-theoretic properties of these more general structures relate to the corresponding properties of Leavitt path algebras of row-finite graphs. Specifically, we identify those graphs for which the corresponding Leavitt path algebra is simple; purely infinite simple; exchange; and s...

We introduce the concept of j-stretched ideals in a Noetherian local ring. This notion generalizes to arbitrary ideals the classical notion of stretched m-primary ideals of Sally and RossiValla, as well as the concept of ideals of minimal and almost minimal j-multiplicity introduced by Polini-Xie. One of our main theorems states that, for a j-stretched ideal, the associated graded ring is Cohen...

Let R be a ring with an automorphism σ. An ideal I of R is σ-ideal of R if σ(I) = I. A proper ideal P of R is σ-prime ideal of R if P is a σ-ideal of R and for σ-ideals I and J of R, IJ ⊆ P implies that I ⊆ P or J ⊆ P . A proper ideal Q of R is σ-semiprime ideal of Q if Q is a σ-ideal and for a σ-ideal I of R, I2 ⊆ Q implies that I ⊆ Q. The σ-prime radical is defined by the intersection of all ...

An element in a ring is called clean if it may be written as a sum of a unit and idempotent. The ring itself is called clean if every element is clean. Recently, Anderson and Camillo (Anderson, D. D., Camillo, V. (2002). Commutative rings whose elements are a sum of a unit and an idempotent. Comm. Algebra 30(7):3327–3336) has shown that for commutative rings every von-Neumann regular ring as we...
