The notions of int-soft semigroups and int-soft left (resp., right) ideals in semigroups are studied in the paper by Song et al. (2014). In this paper, further properties and characterizations of int-soft left (right) ideals are studied, and the notion of int-soft (generalized) bi-ideals is introduced. Relations between int-soft generalized bi-ideals and int-soft semigroups are discussed, and c...

Bi ideals are the generalization of quasi ideals which are themselves the generalization of the so called one-sided, right and left ideals. In this paper, we define the m-bi ideals as a generalization of the bi ideals. The important properties of the m-bi ideals from the pure algebraic point of view have been described. Moreover, we present the form of the m-bi ideals generated by subsets of th...

The concepts of ∈-soft sets and q-soft sets in AG-groupoids are introduced and some related properties are investigated. In particular, we describe the relationships among ordinary fuzzy interior ideals and soft interior ideals over an AG-groupoid S. Moreover, we study the relation-ships among (∈, ∈ ∨q)fuzzy interior ideals, ( ) , q ∈∈∨ -fuzzy interior ideals, (α; β)-fuzzy interior ideals and s...

Let S be an ordered semigroup. In this paper we first introduce the concepts of (∈,∈ ∨qk)-fuzzy ideals, (∈,∈ ∨qk)-fuzzy bi-ideals and (∈,∈ ∨qk)-fuzzy generalized bi-ideals of an ordered semigroup S by the ordered fuzzy points of S, and investigate their related properties. Furthermore, characterizations of regular ordered semigroups by the properties of (∈,∈ ∨qk)-fuzzy left ideals, (∈,∈ ∨qk)-fu...

Various questions on Lie ideals of C∗-algebras are investigated. They fall roughly under the following topics: relation of Lie ideals to closed two-sided ideals; Lie ideals spanned by special classes of elements such as commutators, nilpotents, and the range of polynomials; characterization of Lie ideals as similarity invariant subspaces.

 In this paper, we aresupposed to introduce the definitions of n-fold commutative, andimplicative hyper K-ideals. These definitions are thegeneralizations of the definitions of commutative, andimplicative hyper K-ideals, respectively, which have been definedin [12]. Then we obtain some related results. In particular wedetermine the relationships between n-fold implicative hyperK-ideal and n-fol...

This solution set was written by Pokman; Ravi has added some comments and hopefully hasn’t introduced too many errors! 1. Show that a ring in which all ideals are finitely generated cannot have an infinite sequence of ideals Conversely, show that if a ring has no infinite sequence of ideals, then all ideals are finitely generated. Solution. Suppose all ideals of a ring are finitely generated, a...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Risk-taking behavior has been shown to be associated with adolescent pregnancy or childbearing. However, the specific risk-taking behavioral factors and the extent to which they are associated with adolescent childbearing is less clear. The purpose of this study was to determine the risk-taking behavioral factors associated with adolescent childbearing. METHODS In this ...

CONTEXT Understanding the causes of early childbearing is important for reducing the persistently high rates of early births in the United States. Perceptions of possible benefits may contribute to these rates, while high opportunity costs may dissuade women from early childbearing. METHODS Perceptions of costs and benefits of pregnancy, as well as later experiences of pregnancy, were assesse...
