A ring R is (weakly) nil clean provided that every element in R is the sum of a (weak) idempotent and a nilpotent. We characterize nil and weakly nil matrix rings over abelian rings. Let R be abelian, and let n 2 N. We prove that Mn(R) is nil clean if and only if R/J(R) is Boolean and Mn(J(R)) is nil. Furthermore, we prove that R is weakly nil clean if and only if R is periodic; R/J(R) is Z3, B or Z3 B where B is a Boolean ring, and that Mn(R) is weakly nil clean if and only if Mn(R) is nil clean for all n > 2., Nahid Ashrafi, Marjan Sheibani, Huanyin Chen., and Seznam literatury
Let R be a commutative ring with nonzero identity and J(R) the Jacobson radical of R. The Jacobson graph of R, denoted by JR, is defined as the graph with vertex set RJ(R) such that two distinct vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if 1 − xy is not a unit of R. The genus of a simple graph G is the smallest nonnegative integer n such that G can be embedded into an orientable surface Sn. In this paper, we investigate the genus number of the compact Riemann surface in which JR can be embedded and explicitly determine all finite commutative rings R (up to isomorphism) such that JR is toroidal., Krishnan Selvakumar, Manoharan Subajini., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
