Some properties of quasi-Armendariz rings and their generalizations (Q2422064)

Summary: Let \(R\) be a ring and \((S, \leq)\) a strictly ordered monoid. The generalized power series ring \([[R^{S, \leq}]]\) with coefficients in \(R\) and exponents in \(S\) is a common generalization of polynomial rings, power series rings, Laurent polynomial rings, group rings, and Malcev-Neumann Laurent series rings. We initiate the study of the \(S\)-quasi-Armendariz condition on \(R\), a generalization of the standard quasi-Armendariz condition from polynomials to generalized power series. The class of quasi-Armendariz rings includes semiprime rings, Armendariz rings, right (left) \(p.q.\)-Baer rings and right (left) \(PP\) rings. The \(S\)-quasi-Armendariz rings are closed under direct product. Also it is shown that, if \(R\) is a left \(APP\)-ring, then \(R\) is \(S\)-quasi-Armendariz. The a necessary and sufficient condition is given for rings under which the ring \(R\) is reflexive if and only if \([[R^{S, \leq}]]\) is reflexive ring and \(r_{[[R^{S, \leq}]]}(f[[R^{S, \leq}]])\) is pure as a right ideal in \([[R^{S, \leq}]]\) for any element \(f \in [[R^{S, \leq}]]\). We conclude some characterizations for generalized power series ring to be semiprime, quasi-Baer ring.
