An element in a ring R with identity is said to be strongly nil clean if it is the sum of an idempotent and a nilpotent that commute, R is said to be strongly nil clean if every element of R is strongly nil clean. Let C(R) be the center of a ring R and g(x) be a fixed polynomial in C(R)[x]. Then R is said to be strongly g(x)-nil clean if every element in R is a sum of a nilpotent and a root of g(x) that commute. In this paper, we give some relations between strongly nil clean rings and strongly...

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. A proper ideal $I$ is said to be an $n$-ideal of $R$ if for $a,b\in R$, $ab\in I$ and $a\notin \sqrt{0}$ imply $b\in I$. We give a new generalization of the concept of $n$-ideals by defining a proper ideal $I$ of $R$ to be a semi $n$-ideal if whenever $a\in R$ is such that $a^2\in I$, then $a\in \sqrt{0}$ or $a\in I$. We give some examples of semi $n$-ideal and investigate semi $n$-ideals under various contexts of constructions such as direct products, homomorphic images and localizations. We present various characterizations of this new class of...

All rings considered in this paper are assumed to be commutative with identities. A ring $R$ is a $Q$-ring if every ideal of $R$ is a finite product of primary ideals. An almost $Q$-ring is a ring whose localization at every prime ideal is a $Q$-ring. In this paper, we first prove that the statements, $R$ is an almost $ZPI$-ring and $R\left[x\right]$ is an almost $Q$-ring are equivalent for any ring $R$. Then we prove that under the condition that every prime ideal of $R\left(x\right)$ is an extension of a prime ideal of $R$, the ring $R$ is a (an almost)...
