On the nucleus of certain lie admissible rings (Q4236940)

Let \(S(x,y,z)= (x,y,z)+ (y,z,x)+ (z,x,y)\). Then under the assumptions of third power associativity and characteristic \(\neq 2\), a ring \(R\) is Lie admissible if and only if \(S(x,y,z)=0\) for all \(x,y,z\in R\). The authors prove that the nucleus of a ring \(R\) equals its center if \(R\) satisfies any of the following three hypotheses: (1) \(R\) is a Lie admissible, third power associative ring of characteristic \(\neq 2\) which has no divisors of zero. (2) \(R\) is a simple ring of characteristic \(\neq 2,3\) which satisfies (i) \(S(x,y,z)=0\) for all \(x,y,z\in R\) and (ii) \((x,y,x)= k(x,x,y)\) for all \(x,y\in R\), where \(k\) is fixed in some field of scalars, \(k\neq 0,-1\), and \(k^2+2\neq 0\). (3) \(R\) is a prime flexible ring which satisfies \(S(x,y,z)=0\) for all \(x,y,z\in R\).
