On Unit-Central Rings

چکیده
We establish commutativity theorems for certain classes of rings in which every invertible element is central, or, more generally, in which all invertible elements commute with one another. We prove that if R is a semiexchange ring (i.e. its factor ring modulo its Jacobson radical is an exchange ring) with all invertible elements central, then R is commutative. We also prove that if R is a semiexchange ring in which all invertible elements commute with one another, and R has no factor ring with two elements, then R is commutative. We offer some examples of noncommutative rings in which all invertible elements commute with one another, or are central. We close with a list of problems for further research.

On a generalization of central Armendariz rings
In this paper, some properties of $alpha$-skew Armendariz and central Armendariz rings have been studied by variety of others. We generalize the notions to central $alpha$-skew Armendariz rings and investigate their properties. Also, we show that if $alpha(e)=e$ for each idempotent $e^{2}=e in R$ and $R$ is $alpha$-skew Armendariz, then $R$ is abelian. Moreover, if $R$ is central $alpha$-skew A...
متن کاملON THE REFINEMENT OF THE UNIT AND UNITARY CAYLEY GRAPHS OF RINGS
Let $R$ be a ring (not necessarily commutative) with nonzero identity. We define $Gamma(R)$ to be the graph with vertex set $R$ in which two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if there exist unit elements $u,v$ of $R$ such that $x+uyv$ is a unit of $R$. In this paper, basic properties of $Gamma(R)$ are studied. We investigate connectivity and the girth of $Gamma(R)$, where $...
متن کاملThe unit sum number of Baer rings
In this paper we prove that each element of any regular Baer ring is a sum of two units if no factor ring of R is isomorphic to Z_2 and we characterize regular Baer rings with unit sum numbers $omega$ and $infty$. Then as an application, we discuss the unit sum number of some classes of group rings.
متن کاملOn constant products of elements in skew polynomial rings
Let $R$ be a reversible ring which is $alpha$-compatible for an endomorphism $alpha$ of $R$ and $f(X)=a_0+a_1X+cdots+a_nX^n$ be a nonzero skew polynomial in $R[X;alpha]$. It is proved that if there exists a nonzero skew polynomial $g(X)=b_0+b_1X+cdots+b_mX^m$ in $R[X;alpha]$ such that $g(X)f(X)=c$ is a constant in $R$, then $b_0a_0=c$ and there exist nonzero elements $a$ and $r$ in $R$ such tha...
متن کاملCentral Units in Integral Group Rings II 1
Recent work on central units of integral group rings is surveyed. In particular we present two methods of constructing central units, induction and lifting, and demonstrate how these constructions can often be used to find generators for large subgroups in the full group of central units of an integral group ring.
متن کاملDerivations in semiprime rings and Banach algebras
Let $R$ be a 2-torsion free semiprime ring with extended centroid $C$, $U$ the Utumi quotient ring of $R$ and $m,n>0$ are fixed integers. We show that if $R$ admits derivation $d$ such that $b[[d(x), x]_n,[y,d(y)]_m]=0$ for all $x,yin R$ where $0neq bin R$, then there exists a central idempotent element $e$ of $U$ such that $eU$ is commutative ring and $d$ induce a zero derivation on $(1-e)U$. ...
