let r be an associative ring with unity. an element a in r is said to be r-clean if a = e+r, where e is an idempotent and r is a regular (von neumann) element in r. if every element of r is r-clean, then r is called an r-clean ring. in this paper, we prove that the concepts of clean ring and r-clean ring are equivalent for abelian rings. further we prove that if 0 and 1 are the only idempotents...

LetR be a von Neumann regular ring. The main results of this paper assert whether a von Neumann regular ring is expressible as a directed union of finite products of fields.

For any group G and any set A, a cellular automaton (CA) is a transformation of the configuration space A G defined via a finite memory set and a local function. Let CA(G; A) be the monoid of all CA over A G. In this paper, we investigate a generalisation of the inverse of a CA from the semigroup-theoretic perspective. An element τ ∈ CA(G; A) is von Neumann regular (or simply regular) if there ...

the aim of this note is to study the submajorization inequalities for $tau$-measurable operators in a semi-finite von neumann algebra on a hilbert space with a normal faithful semi-finite trace $tau$. the submajorization inequalities generalize some results due to zhang, furuichi and lin, etc..

We show that a strong form (the fully faithful version) of the generating hypothesis, introduced by Freyd in algebraic topology, holds in the derived category of a ring R if and only if R is von Neumann regular. This extends results of the second author [Loc07]. We also characterize rings for which the original form (the faithful version) of the generating hypothesis holds in the derived catego...

There is a close relation between comprehensive Gröbner bases and non-parametric Gröbner bases over commutative von Neumann regular rings. By this relation, Gröbner bases over a commutative von Neumann regular ring can be viewed as an alternative to comprehensive Gröbner bases. (Therefore, this Gröbner basis is called an “alternative comprehensive Gröbner basis (ACGB)”.) In the first part of th...

We show that each R-module is n-flat (resp., weakly n-flat) if and only if R is an (n,n− 1)-ring (resp., a weakly (n,n− 1)-ring). We also give a new characterization of n-von Neumann regular rings and a characterization of weak n-von Neumann regular rings for (CH)-rings and for local rings. Finally, we show that in a class of principal rings and a class of local Gaussian rings, a weak n-von Neu...
