RIGHT NUCLEUS IN GENERALIZED RIGHT ALTERNATIVE RINGS

Some properties of the right nucleus in generalized right alternative rings have been presented in this paper. In a generalized right alternative ring R which is finitely generated or free of locally nilpotent ideals, the right nucleus Nr equals the center C. Also, if R is prime and Nr ¹ C, then the associator ideal of R is locally nilpotent. Seong Nam [5] studied the properties of the right nucleus in right alternative algebra. He showed that if R is a prime right alternative algebra of char. ≠ 2 and Right nucleus Nr is not equal to the center C, then the associator ideal of R is locally nilpotent. But the problem arises when it come with the study of generalized right alternative ring as the ring dose not absorb the right alternative identity. In this paper we consider our ring to be generalized right alternative ring and try to prove the results of Seong Nam [5]. At the end of this paper we give an example to show that the generalized right alternative ring is not right alternative.

On prime right alternative rings with commutators in the left nucleus

A ring is called s–prime if the 2-sided annihilator of a nonzero ideal must be zero. In particular, any simple ring or prime (—1, 1) ring is s–prime. Also, a nonzero s–prime right alternative ring, with characteristic ≠ 2, cannot be right nilpotent. Let R be a right alternative ring with commutators in the left nucleus. Then R is associative in the following cases: (1) R is prime, with characteristic ≠ 2, and has an idempotent e ≠ 1 such that (e, e, R) = 0. (2) R is an algebra over a commutative-associative ring with 1/6, and R is either s–prime, or R is prime and locally (—1,1).
