[ 1 ] - Strongly clean triangular matrix rings with endomorphisms

‎A ring $R$ is strongly clean provided that every element‎ ‎in $R$ is the sum of an idempotent and a unit that commutate‎. ‎Let‎ ‎$T_n(R,sigma)$ be the skew triangular matrix ring over a local‎ ‎ring $R$ where $sigma$ is an endomorphism of $R$‎. ‎We show that‎ ‎$T_2(R,sigma)$ is strongly clean if and only if for any $ain‎ ‎1+J(R)‎, ‎bin J(R)$‎, ‎$l_a-r_{sigma(b)}‎: ‎Rto R$ is surjective‎. ‎Furt...

[ 2 ] - Some classes of strongly clean rings

A ring $R$ is a strongly clean ring if every element in $R$ is the sum of an idempotent and a unit that commutate. We construct some classes of strongly clean rings which have stable range one. It is shown that such cleanness of $2 imes 2$ matrices over commutative local rings is completely determined in terms of solvability of quadratic equations.
