In this article, we completely determine the rings for which every element is a sum of a nilpotent and three tripotents that commute with one another. We discuss this property for some extensions of rings, including group rings.

We introduce the notions of nilpotent element, quasi-regular element in a semiring which is a distributive lattice of rings. The concept of Jacobson radical is introduced for this kind of semirings.

In this article we first investigate a sort of unit-IFP ring by which Antoine provides very useful information to ring theory in relation with the structure of coefficients of zero-dividing polynomials. Here we are concerned with the whole shape of units and nilpotent elements in such rings. Next we study the properties of unit-IFP rings through group actions of units on nonzero nilpotent elements. We prove that if R is a unit-IFP ring such that there are finite number of orbits under the left (resp., right) action of units on nonzero nilpotent elements, then R satisfies the descending chain condition for nil left (resp., right) ideals of R and the upper nilradical of R is nilpotent.

We observe the structure of a kind of unit-IFP ring that is constructed by Antoine, in relation with units and nilpotent elements. This article concerns the same argument in a more general situation, and study the structure of one-sided zero divisors in such rings. We also provide another kind of unit-IFP ring.

A pointed-group is an ordered pair (G,c) where G is a group and c is a specific element of G. Thus a pointed-group is a group together with a distinguish element. The aim of this paper is to generalize the result proved by R.C. Lyndon in [4], that every nilpotent group variety is finitely based for its laws.

Let n be a 2-step nilpotent Lie algebra which has an inner product <, > and has an orthogonal decomposition $n\;=z\;{\oplus}v$ for its center z and the orthogonal complement v of z. Then Each element z of z defines a skew symmetric linear map $J_z\;:\;v\;{\longrightarrow}\;v$ given by <$J_zx$, y> = for all x, $y\;{\in}\;v$. In this paper we characterize Jacobi fields and calculate all conjugate points of a simply connected 2-step nilpotent Lie group N with its Lie algebra n satisfying $J^2_z$ = A for all $z\;{\in}\;z$, where S is a positive definite symmetric operator on z and A is a negative definite symmetric operator on v.

In this article, we generalize a well-known result of Hebisch and Weinert that states that a finite semidomain is either zerosumfree or a ring. Specifically, we show that the class of commutative semirings S such that S has nonzero characteristic and every zero-divisor of S is nilpotent can be partitioned into zerosumfree semirings and rings. In addition, we demonstrate that if S is a finite commutative semiring such that the set of zero-divisors of S forms a subtractive ideal of S, then either every zero-sum of S is nilpotent or S must be a ring. An example is given to establish the existence of semirings in this latter category with both nontrivial zero-sums and zero-divisors that are not nilpotent.

We in this note consider a generalized ring theoretic property of quasi-commutative rings in relation with powers. We will use the terminology of weakly left quasi-commutative for the class of rings satisfying such property. The properties and examples are basically investigated in the procedure of studying idempotents and nilpotent elements.

Using the notion of nilpotent elements, the concept of nil subsets is introduced, and related properties are investigated. We show that a nil subset on a subalgebra (resp. (closed) ideal) is a subalgebra (resp. (closed) ideal). We also prove that in a nil algebra every ideal is a subalgebra.

We generalize the insertion-of-factors-property by setting nilpotent products of elements. In the process we introduce the concept of a nil-IFP ring that is also a generalization of an NI ring. It is shown that if K$\ddot{o}$the's conjecture holds, then every nil-IFP ring is NI. The class of minimal noncommutative nil-IFP rings is completely determined, up to isomorphism, where the minimal means having smallest cardinality.
