( σ , τ ) -derivations on prime near rings

Mohammad Ashraf, Asma Ali, Shakir Ali (2004)

Archivum Mathematicum

There is an increasing body of evidence that prime near-rings with derivations have ring like behavior, indeed, there are several results (see for example [1], [2], [3], [4], [5] and [8]) asserting that the existence of a suitably-constrained derivation on a prime near-ring forces the near-ring to be a ring. It is our purpose to explore further this ring like behaviour. In this paper we generalize some of the results due to Bell and Mason [4] on near-rings admitting a special type of derivation...

A commutativity theorem for associative rings

Mohammad Ashraf (1995)

Archivum Mathematicum

Let m > 1 , s 1 be fixed positive integers, and let R be a ring with unity 1 in which for every x in R there exist integers p = p ( x ) 0 , q = q ( x ) 0 , n = n ( x ) 0 , r = r ( x ) 0 such that either x p [ x n , y ] x q = x r [ x , y m ] y s or x p [ x n , y ] x q = y s [ x , y m ] x r for all y R . In the present paper it is shown that R is commutative if it satisfies the property Q ( m ) (i.e. for all x , y R , m [ x , y ] = 0 implies [ x , y ] = 0 ).

Centers in domains with quadratic growth

Agata Smoktunowicz (2005)

Open Mathematics

Let F be a field, and let R be a finitely-generated F-algebra, which is a domain with quadratic growth. It is shown that either the center of R is a finitely-generated F-algebra or R satisfies a polynomial identity (is PI) or else R is algebraic over F. Let r ∈ R be not algebraic over F and let C be the centralizer of r. It is shown that either the quotient ring of C is a finitely-generated division algebra of Gelfand-Kirillov dimension 1 or R is PI.

Centralizers on prime and semiprime rings

Joso Vukman (1997)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

The purpose of this paper is to investigate identities satisfied by centralizers on prime and semiprime rings. We prove the following result: Let R be a noncommutative prime ring of characteristic different from two and let S and T be left centralizers on R . Suppose that [ S ( x ) , T ( x ) ] S ( x ) + S ( x ) [ S ( x ) , T ( x ) ] = 0 is fulfilled for all x R . If S 0 ( T ...
