Endomorphism rings of modules appear as the center of a ring, as the fix ring of a ring with group action or as the subring of constants of a derivation. This note discusses the question whether certain ∗-prime modules have a prime endomorphism ring. Several conditions are presented that guarantee the primeness of the endomorphism ring. The contours of a possible example of a ∗-prime module who...

The main result of this paper is that a prime ring with a finite center which admits elimination of quantifiers must be finite. This answers a question raised by the author [10; p. 99] and completes the classification of prime rings which admit elimination of quantifiers. That is, a prime ring admits elimination of quantifiers if and only if it is either an algebraically closed field, a finite ...

In the study of hereditary Noetherian rings, it is clear that hereditary Noetherian prime rings will play a central role (see, for example, [12]). Here we study the (two-sided) ideals of an hereditary Xoetherian prime ring and, as a consequence, ascertain the structure of factor rings and torsion modules. The torsion theory represents a generalization of similar results about Dedekind prime rin...

in this paper, we introduce a new generalization of weakly prime ideals called $i$-prime. suppose $r$ is a commutative ring with identity and $i$ a fixed ideal of $r$. a proper ideal $p$ of $r$ is $i$-prime if for $a, b in r$ with $ab in p-ip$ implies either $a in p$ or $b in p$. we give some characterizations of $i$-prime ideals and study some of its properties.  moreover, we give conditions  ...

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity‎. ‎A proper ideal $P$ of $R$ is a $(n-1,n)$-$Phi_m$-prime ($(n-1,n)$-weakly prime) ideal if $a_1,ldots,a_nin R$‎, ‎$a_1cdots a_nin Pbackslash P^m$ ($a_1cdots a_nin Pbackslash {0}$) implies $a_1cdots a_{i-1}a_{i+1}cdots a_nin P$‎, ‎for some $iin{1,ldots,n}$; ($m,ngeq 2$)‎. ‎In this paper several results concerning $(n-1,n)$-$Phi_m$-prime and $(n-1,n)$-...
