In this paper we introduce the notion of P-strongly regular near-ring. We have shown that a zero-symmetric near-ring N is P-strongly regular if and only if N is P-regular and P is a completely semiprime ideal. We have also shown that in a P-strongly regular near-ring N, the following holds: (i) $Na$ + P is an ideal of N for any $a{\in}N$. (ii) Every P-prime ideal of N containing P is maximal. (iii) Every ideal I of N fulfills I + P = $I^2$ + P.

An ideal I of a ring R is strongly ${\pi}$-regular if for any $x{\in}I$ there exist $n{\in}\mathbb{N}$ and $y{\in}I$ such that $x^n=x^{n+1}y$. We prove that every strongly ${\pi}$-regular ideal of a ring is a B-ideal. An ideal I is periodic provided that for any $x{\in}I$ there exist two distinct m, $n{\in}\mathbb{N}$ such that $x^m=x^n$. Furthermore, we prove that an ideal I of a ring R is periodic if and only if I is strongly ${\pi}$-regular and for any $u{\in}U(I)$, $u^{-1}{\in}\mathbb{Z}[u]$.

Let R be a prime ring of characteristic different from 2. Suppose that F, G, H and T are generalized derivations of R. Let U be the Utumi quotient ring of R and C be the center of U, called the extended centroid of R and let f(x₁, …, x_n) be a non central multilinear polynomial over C. If F(f(r₁, …, r_n))G(f(r₁, …, r_n)) - f(r₁, …, r_n)T(f(r₁, …, r_n)) = H(f(r₁, …, r_n)²) for all r₁, …, r_n ∈ R, then we describe all possible forms of F, G, H and T.

Like acupuncture, magnetic therapy has been known to yield effectiveness when it is applied to relieve from fatigue, musculoskelectal diseases, sore sites, rheumatic arthritis and chronic pain syndromes. However, combined application of acupuncture and magnet has not yet been studied. This study is designed to investigate effectiveness of acupuncture therapy when in the magnetic field for the pain relief. Magnetic field was made by magnetic ring ($7{\psi}{\times}2.3{\psi}{\times}1.5mm$). Twenty-one male swimmers with latent muscular pain at the GB21 area in the university course of physical education in Daegu were chosen and divided into three groups; 1) acupuncture treatment group (n=7), 2) acupuncture treatment with iron ring group (n=7), 3) acupuncture treatment with magnetic ring group (n=7). Manual Acupuncture was given to the GB21 point for 20 minutes. The degree of pressure pain threshold (PPT, $kg/cm^2$) in GB21 was measured with algometer. Before acupuncture treatment, the PPT values were $6.08{\pm}1.69$, $6.39{\pm}1.72$ and $5.59{\pm}1.11$ in acupuncture treatment group, acupuncture treatment with iron ring group, acupuncture treatment with magnetic ring group, respectively. After acupuncture treatment, the PPT values were $6.48{\pm}2.33$, $6.31{\pm}1.31$ and $6.59{\pm}1.80$, respectively. Pressure threshold was significantly increased in the acupuncture treatment with magnetic ring group compared to the other groups. Based on these results, acupuncture treatment with magnetic ring produced better effects on pain threshold, and these effects can be considered to be associated with the currents or voltages induced by the acupuncture needle and magnetic ring at present.

A commutative ring R with unityis called EM-Hermite if for each a, b ∈ R there exist c, d, f ∈ R such that a = cd, b = cf and the ideal (d, f) is regular in R. We showed in this article that R is a PP-ring if and only if the idealization R(+)R is an EM-Hermite ring if and only if R[x]/(xⁿ⁺¹) is an EM-Hermite ring for each n ∈ ℕ. We generalize some results, and answer some questions in the literature.

Let R be a commutative ring with identity. An R-module M is said to be w-projective if $Ext\frac{1}{R}$(M,N) is GV-torsion for any torsion-free w-module N. In this paper, we define a ring R to be w-semi-hereditary if every finite type ideal of R is w-projective. To characterize w-semi-hereditary rings, we introduce the concept of w-injective modules and study some basic properties of w-injective modules. Using these concepts, we show that R is w-semi-hereditary if and only if the total quotient ring T(R) of R is a von Neumann regular ring and $R_m$ is a valuation domain for any maximal w-ideal m of R. It is also shown that a connected ring R is w-semi-hereditary if and only if R is a Pr$\ddot{u}$fer v-multiplication domain.

Let D be an integral domain, t be the so-called t-operation on D, and S be a (not necessarily saturated) multiplicative subset of D. In this paper, we study the Nagata ring of S-Noetherian domains and locally S-Noetherian domains. We also investigate the t-Nagata ring of t-locally S-Noetherian domains. In fact, we show that if S is an anti-archimedean subset of D, then D is an S-Noetherian domain (respectively, locally S-Noetherian domain) if and only if the Nagata ring $D[X]_N$ is an S-Noetherian domain (respectively, locally S-Noetherian domain). We also prove that if S is an anti-archimedean subset of D, then D is a t-locally S-Noetherian domain if and only if the polynomial ring D[X] is a t-locally S-Noetherian domain, if and only if the t-Nagata ring $D[X]_{N_v}$ is a t-locally S-Noetherian domain.

Threshold ring signature scheme enables any t entities from N ring members to spontaneously generate a publicly verifiable t-out-of-N signature anonymously. The verifier is convinced that the signature is indeed generated by at least t users from the claimed group, but he cannot tell them apart. Threshold ring signatures are significant for ad-hoc groups such as mobile ad-hoc networks. Based on the lattice-based ring signature proposed by Melchor et al. at AFRICRYPT'13, this work presents a lattice-based threshold ring signature scheme, employing the technique of message block sharing proposed by Choi and Kim. Besides, in order to avoid the system parameter setup problems, we proposed a message processing technique called "pad-then-permute", to pre-process the message before blocking the message, thus making the threshold ring signature scheme more flexible. Our threshold ring signature scheme has several advantages: inherits the quantum immunity from the lattice structure; has considerably short signature and almost no signature size increase with the threshold value; provable to be correct, efficient, indistinguishable source hiding, and unforgeable.

In this paper, we study the Green ring r(𝔴⁰_n) of the weak Hopf algebra 𝔴⁰_n based on Taft Hopf algebra H_n(q). Let R(𝔴⁰_n) := r(𝔴⁰_n) ⊗_ℤ ℂ be the Green algebra corresponding to the Green ring r(𝔴⁰_n). We first determine all finite dimensional simple modules of the Green algebra R(𝔴⁰_n), which is based on the observations of the roots of the generating relations associated with the Green ring r(𝔴⁰_n). Then we show that the nilpotent elements in r(𝔴⁰_n) can be written as a sum of finite dimensional indecomposable projective 𝔴⁰_n-modules. The Jacobson radical J(r(𝔴⁰_n)) of r(𝔴⁰_n) is a principal ideal, and its rank equals n - 1. Furthermore, we classify all finite dimensional non-simple indecomposable R(𝔴⁰_n)-modules. It turns out that R(𝔴⁰_n) has n² - n + 2 simple modules of dimension 1, and n non-simple indecomposable modules of dimension 2.

Let R be a commutative noetherian ring with 1.neq.0, denoting by .nu.(I) the cardinality of a minimal basis of the ideal I. Let A be a polynomial ring in n>0 variables with coefficients in R, and let M be a maximal ideal of A. Generally it is shown that .nu.(M $A_{M}$).leq..nu.(M).leq..nu.(M $A_{M}$)+1. It is well known that the lower bound is not always satisfied, and the most classical examples occur in nonfactional Dedekind domains. But in many cases, (e.g., A is a polynomial ring whose coefficient ring is a field) the lower bound is attained. In [2] and [3], the conditions when the lower bound is satisfied is investigated. Especially in [3], it is shown that .nu.(M)=.nu.(M $A_{M}$) if M.cap.R=p is a maximal ideal or $A_{M}$ (equivalently $R_{p}$) is not regular or n>1. Hence the problem of determining whether .nu.(M)=.nu.(M $A_{M}$) can be studied when p is not maximal, $A_{M}$ is regular and n=1. The purpose of this note is to provide some conditions in which the lower bound is satisfied, when n=1 and R is a regular local ring (hence $A_{M}$ is regular)./ is regular).
