The element $q$ of a ring $R$ is called quasi-idempotent if $q^2=uq$ for some central unit $u$ $R$, or equivalently $q=ue$, where and $e$ an idempotent $R$. In this paper, we define that the almost quasi-clean each sum regular element. Several properties almost-quasi clean rings are investigated. We prove every quasi-continuous nonsingular quasi-clean. Finally, it determined conditions under wh...

It is shown that a commutative Bézout ring R with compact minimal prime spectrum is an elementary divisor ring if and only if so is R/L for each minimal prime ideal L. This result is obtained by using the quotient space pSpec R of the prime spectrum of the ring R modulo the equivalence generated by the inclusion. When every prime ideal contains only one minimal prime, for instance if R is arith...
