Abstract: Let mathcalZ(R) be the set of zero divisor elements of a commutative ring R with identity and mathcalM be the space of minimal prime ideals of R with Zariski topology. An ideal I of R is called strongly dense ideal or briefly sd-ideal if IsubseteqmathcalZ(R) and is contained in no minimal prime ideal. We denote by RK(mathcalM), the set of all ainR for which is compact. We show that R has property (A) and mathcalM is compact ifif R has no sd-ideal. It is proved that RK(mathcalM) is an essential ideal (resp., sd-ideal) ifif mathcalM is an almost locally compact (resp., mathcalM is a locally compact non-compact) space. The intersection of essential minimal prime ideals of a reduced ring R need not be an essential ideal. We find an equivalent condition for which any (resp., any countable) intersection of essential minimal prime ideals of a reduced ring R is an essential ideal. Also it is proved that the intersection of essential minimal prime ideals of C(X) is equal to the socle of C(X) (i.e., ). Finally, we show that a topological space X is pseudo-discrete ifif I(X)=XL and CK(X) is a pure ideal.
