Abstract. Let R be a 2-torsion free ring with identity. In this paper, first we prove that any Jordan left derivation (hence, any left derivation) on the full matrix ringMn(R) (n 2) is identically zero, and any generalized left derivation on this ring is a right centralizer. Next, we show that if R is also a prime ring and n 1, then any Jordan left derivation on the ring Tn(R) of all n×n uppe...

‎For any archimedean$f$-ring $A$ with unit in whichbreak$awedge‎ ‎(1-a)leq 0$ for all $ain A$‎, ‎the following are shown to be‎ ‎equivalent‎: ‎ ‎1‎. ‎$A$ is isomorphic to the $l$-ring ${mathfrak Z}L$ of all‎ ‎integer-valued continuous functions on some frame $L$‎. 2‎. ‎$A$ is a homomorphic image of the $l$-ring $C_{Bbb Z}(X)$‎ ‎of all integer-valued continuous functions‎, ‎in the usual se...

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...

Let be a commutative Noetherian ring and let I be a proper ideal of . D’Anna and Fontana in [6] introduced a new construction of ring,  named amalgamated duplication of along I. In this paper by considering the ring homomorphism , it is shown that if , then , also it is proved that if , then there exists  such that . Using this result it is shown that if is generically Cohen-Macaulay (resp. gen...

In this paper, we construct two fuzzy sets using the notions of level subsets and strong level subsets of a given fuzzy set in a ring R. These fuzzy sets turn out to be identical and provide a universal construction of a fuzzy ideal generated by a given fuzzy set in a ring. Using this construction and employing the technique of strong level subsets, we provide the shortest and direct fuzzy set ...

The aim of this paper is to generalize the‎ ‎notion of almost valuation domains to arbitrary commutative‎ ‎rings‎. ‎Also‎, ‎we consider relations between almost valuation rings ‎and pseudo-almost valuation rings‎. ‎We prove that the class of‎ ‎almost valuation rings is properly contained in the class of‎ ‎pseudo-almost valuation rings‎. ‎Among the properties of almost‎ ‎valuation rings‎, ‎we sh...

Let $R$ be a ring and $M$ a right $R$-module. We call $M$, coretractable relative to $overline{Z}(M)$ (for short, $overline{Z}(M)$-coretractable) provided that, for every proper submodule $N$ of $M$ containing $overline{Z}(M)$, there is a nonzero homomorphism $f:dfrac{M}{N}rightarrow M$. We investigate some conditions under which the two concepts coretractable and $overline{Z}(M)$-coretractable...

the rings considered in this article are commutative with identity $1neq 0$. by a proper ideal of a ring $r$,  we mean an ideal $i$ of $r$ such that $ineq r$.  we say that a proper ideal $i$ of a ring $r$ is a  maximal non-prime ideal if $i$ is not a prime ideal of $r$ but any proper ideal $a$ of $r$ with $ isubseteq a$ and $ineq a$ is a prime ideal. that is, among all the proper ideals of $r$,...

purpose: to describe a new noninvasive method to assure correct orientation of donor lenticules in descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (dsaek) surgery. methods: dsaek surgery was performed in three eyes with the diagnosis of pseudophakic bullous keratopathy (pbk). for the laboratory part of the study, two whole globes and two precut corneoscleral buttons were used. the donor l...

in this paper, a new design of optical channel drop filter based on two- dimensional photonic crystal ring resonators with triangular lattice is proposed. the rods of this structure is silicon with the refractive index nsi=3.46 and the surrounding environment is air with the refractive index of nair=1.the widest photonic band gap obtains for the filling ratio of r/a = 0.2. the filter’s transmis...
