A generalization of the symmetry property of a ring via its endomorphism (Q6548284)

\textit{J. Lambek} [Lectures on rings and modules. Waltham/Mass.-London-Toronto: Blaisdell Publishing Company (1966; Zbl 0143.26403)] introduced the concept of symmetric rings to expand the commutative ideal theory to noncommutative rings. Now, in this paper, the authors propose an extension of symmetric rings called strongly \(\alpha\)-symmetric rings, which serves as both a generalization of strongly symmetric rings and an extension of symmetric rings. They examine the relationships between several classes of rings and strongly \(\alpha\)-symmetric rings and proved some results. They also present several examples of strongly asymmetric rings and counterexamples to several naturally raised situations. Moreover, they investigate whether some ring extensions over strongly \(\alpha\)-symmetric ring \(R\) again possess this property, where \(\alpha\) is an endomorphism of the ring \(R\). With this generalization, several known results relating to symmetric rings can be obtained from their results.
