AbstractA ring R is said to be n-clean if every element can be written as a sum of an idempotent and n units. The class of these rings contains clean rings and n-good rings in which each element is a sum of n units. In this paper, we show that for any ring R, the endomorphism ring of a free R-module of rank at least 2 is 2-clean and that the ring B(R) of all ω × ω row and column-finite matrices over any ring R is 2-clean. Finally, the group ring RCn is considered where R is a local ring.

A ring with involution ∗ is called ∗-clean if each of its elements is the sum of a unit and a projection. It is obvious that ∗-clean rings are clean. Vaš asked whether there exists a clean ring with involution that is not ∗-clean. In this paper, we investigate when a group ring RG is ∗-clean, where ∗ is the classical involution on RG. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for RG to be ∗-clean, where R is a commutative local ring and G is one of the groups C3, C4, S3 and Q8. As a consequence, we provide many examples of group rings which are clean but not ∗-clean.

Abstract An arbitrary unital ring R is called feebly nil-clean if any its element is of the form q + e − f, where q is a nilpotent and e, f are idempotents with ef = fe. For any commutative ring R and any abelian group G, we find a necessary and sufficient condition when the group ring R(G) is feebly nil-clean only in terms of R, G and their sections. Our result refines establishments due to McGovern et al. in J. Algebra Appl. (2015) on nil-clean rings and Danchev-McGovern in J. Algebra (2015) on weakly nil-clean rings, respectively.

In ring and module theory, the cleanness property is well established. If any element of R can be expressed as the sum of an idempotent and a unit, then R is said to be a clean ring. Moreover, an R-module M is clean if the endomorphism ring of M is clean. We study the cleanness concept of coalgebra and comodules as a dualization of the cleanness in rings and modules. Let C be an R-coalgebra and M be a C-comodule. Since the endomorphism of C-comodule M is a ring, M is called a clean C-comodule if the ring of C-comodule endomorphisms of M is clean. In Brzezi´nski and Wisbauer (2003), the group ring R[G] is an R-coalgebra. Consider M as an R[G]-comodule. In this paper, we have investigated some sucient conditions to make M a clean R[G]-comodule, and have shown that every G-graded module M is a clean R[G]-comodule if M is a clean R-module.

AbstractIt is shown that each commutative Artin local ring having each of its ideals generated by two elements is the homomorphic image of a one-dimensional local complete intersection ring which also has each of its ideals generated by two elements. It is indicated how this can be applied to show that the property that each ideal is projective over its endomorphism ring does not pass to homomorphic images, and in determining the commutative group rings with the two-generator property.

AbstractWe show that the endomorphism rings of kernels ker ϕ of non-injective morphisms ϕ between indecomposable injective modules are either local or have two maximal ideals, the module ker ϕ is determined up to isomorphism by two invariants called monogeny class and upper part, and a weak form of the Krull–Schmidt theorem holds for direct sums of these kernels. We prove with an example that our pathological decompositions actually take place. We show that a direct sum ofnkernels of morphisms between injective indecomposable modules can have exactlyn! pairwise non-isomorphic direct-sum decompositions into kernels of morphisms of the same type. IfERis an injective indecomposable module andSis its endomorphism ring, the duality Hom(−,ER) transforms kernels of morphismsER→ERinto cyclically presented left modules over the local ringS, sending the monogeny class into the epigeny class and the upper part into the lower part.

AbstractLet U(RG) be the group of units of a group ring RG over a commutative ring R with 1. We say that a group is an SIT-group if it is an extension of a group which satisfies a semigroup identity by a torsion group. It is a consequence of the main result that if G is torsion and R = Z, then U(RG) is an SIT-group if and only if G is either abelian or a Hamiltonian 2-group. If R is a local ring of characteristic 0 only the first alternative can occur.

Let S be a Noetherian local ring with maximal ideal J and k the residue field of S. Let G be a finite group of order n and suppose that G acts on S as automorphisms. Let R = SG and I = JG. We denote by S[G] (resp. R[G]) the twisted group ring of G over S (resp. the group algebra of G over R). Recall that the multiplication of S[G] is defined as follows : sg · th = sg(t) · gh for s, t ∊ S and g, h ∊ G. Let tG(S) = {Σg ∈ Gg(s)/s ∈ S} and call it the trace ideal of S. Note that tG(S) = R if n is a unit of S. We say that S has a normal basis if S ≅ R[G] as R[G]-modules. This condition says that there is an element s of S so that {g(s)}g ∈ G forms an R-free basis of S.

AbstractLet $(R, \mathfrak{m})$ be a Cohen–Macaulay complete local ring. We will apply an inductive argument to show that for every nonprojective locally projective maximal Cohen–Macaulay object $ \mathcal{X} $ of the morphism category of $R$ with local endomorphism ring, there exists an almost split sequence ending in $ \mathcal{X} $. Regular sequences are exploited to reduce the Krull dimension of $R$ on which the inductive argument is established. Moreover, the Auslander–Reiten translate of certain objects is described.

In this paper we study M-small principally injective (in short, M-sp-injective) module which is the generalization of M-principally injective module. We prove that if M is finite dimensional and quasi-sp-injective then its endomorphism ring S is semi-local ring. We characterize the M-sp-injective module with the help of epi-retractable modules.

AbstractThis paper is about rings $R$ for which every element is a sum of a tripotent and an element from the Jacobson radical $J(R)$. These rings are called semi-tripotent rings. Examples include Boolean rings, strongly nil-clean rings, strongly 2-nil-clean rings, and semi-boolean rings. Here, many characterizations of semi-tripotent rings are obtained. Necessary and sufficient conditions for a Morita context (respectively, for a group ring of an abelian group or a locally finite nilpotent group) to be semi-tripotent are proved.
