Abstract

Let N be a right near-ring. N is said to be strongly reduced if, for $a\inN$, $a^2 \in N_{c}$ implies $a\;\in\;N_{c}$, or equivalently, for $a\inN$ and any positive integer n, $a^{n} \in N_{c}$ implies $a\;\in\;N_{c}$, where $N_{c}$ denotes the constant part of N. We will show that strong reducedness is equivalent to condition (ⅱ) of Reddy and Murty's property $(^{\ast})$ (cf. [Reddy & Murty: On strongly regular near-rings. Proc. Edinburgh Math. Soc. (2) 27 (1984), no. 1, 61-64]), and that condition (ⅰ) of Reddy and Murty's property $(^{\ast})$ follows from strong reducedness. Also, we will investigate some characterizations of strongly reduced near-rings and their properties. Using strong reducedness, we characterize left strongly regular near-rings and ($P_{0}$)-near-rings.
