    Throughout, the term near-ring will be used to mean right near-ring. If \(N\) is a near-ring, if \(\rho\) is a radical of near-rings and if \(\overline\rho\) denotes its supplementing radical, then \(\rho(N)\oplus\overline\rho(N)\) is an ideal of \(N\). \textit{P. Fuchs} has shown that the class \(\mathcal F\) of near-rings \(N\) whose constant part \(N_c\) is an ideal forms a variety [Bull. Aust. Math. Soc. 39, No. 2, 171-175 (1989; Zbl 0655.16026)]. The authors address the case when \(\rho(N)\oplus\overline\rho(N)=N\). It is shown that, in \(\mathcal F\), the assignment \(c\colon N\to N_c\) is a hereditary Kurosh-Amitsur radical, and \(c\) is characterized in terms of distributors; furthermore, criteria are given for \(N=c(N)\oplus\overline c(N)\). From the authors' abstract: In the subvariety \(\mathcal A\) of all abstract affine near-rings, assigning the maximal torsion ideal \(\tau(N)\) is a hereditary Kurosh-Amitsur radical. If such near-rings \(N\in{\mathcal A}\) satisfy the dcc on principal right ideals, then \(N\) splits into a direct sum \(N=\tau(N)\oplus\overline\tau(N)\) where the additive group of \(\overline\tau(N)\) is torsionfree and divisible. Dropping dcc on principal right ideals, an essential decomposition result is proved.
