Let $R={\oplus}_{{\alpha}{\in}{\Gamma}}R_{\alpha}$ be an integral domain graded by an arbitrary torsionless grading monoid ${\Gamma}$, ${\bar{R}}$ be the integral closure of R, H be the set of nonzero homogeneous elements of R, C(f) be the fractional ideal of R generated by the homogeneous components of $f{\in}R_H$, and $N(H)=\{f{\in}R{\mid}C(f)_v=R\}$. Let $R_H$ be a UFD. We say that a nonzero prime ideal Q of R is an upper to zero in R if $Q=fR_H{\cap}R$ for some $f{\in}R$ and that R is a graded UMT-domain if each upper to zero in R is a maximal t-ideal. In this paper, we study several ring-theoretic properties of graded UMT-domains. Among other things, we prove that if R has a unit of nonzero degree, then R is a graded UMT-domain if and only if every prime ideal of $R_{N(H)}$ is extended from a homogeneous ideal of R, if and only if ${\bar{R}}_{H{\backslash}Q}$ is a graded-$Pr{\ddot{u}}fer$ domain for all homogeneous maximal t-ideals Q of R, if and only if ${\bar{R}}_{N(H)}$ is a $Pr{\ddot{u}}fer$ domain, if and only if R is a UMT-domain.

Let (R, m) be a 2-dimensional regular local ring with algebraically closed residue field R/m. Let K be the quotient field of R and v be a prime divisor of R, i.e., a valuation of K which is birationally dominating R and residually transcendental over R. Zariski showed that there are finitely many simple v-ideals $m=P_0\;{\supset}\;P_1\;{\supset}\;{\cdotS}\;{\supset}\;P_t=P$ and all the other v-ideals are uniquely factored into a product of those simple ones. It then was also shown by Lipman that the predecessor of the smallest simple v-ideal P is either simple (P is free) or the product of two simple v-ideals (P is satellite), that the sequence of v-ideals between the maximal ideal and the smallest simple v-ideal P is saturated, and that the v-value of the maximal ideal is the m-adic order of P. Let m = (x, y) and denote the v-value difference |v(x) - v(y)| by $n_v$. In this paper, if the m-adic order of P is 2, we show that $O(P_i)\;=\;1\;for\;1\;{\leq}\;i\; {\leq}\;{\lceil}\;{\frac{b+1}{2}}{\rceil}\;and\;O(P_i)\;=2\;for\;{\lceil}\;\frac{b+3}{2}\rceil\;{\leq}\;i\;\leq\;t,\;where\;b=n_v$. We also show that $n_w\;=\;n_v$ when w is the prime divisor associated to a simple v-ideal $Q\;{\supset}\;P$ of order 2 and that w(R) = v(R) as well.

Let (R, m) be a d-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local ring with infinite residue field. Let I be an ideal of R that has analytic spread ℓ(I) = d, satisfies the G_d condition, the weak Artin-Nagata property AN^-_d-2 and m is not an associated prime of R/I. In this paper, we show that if j₁(I) = λ(I/J) + λ[R/(J_d-1 :_RI+(J_d-2 :_RI+I):_R m^∞)] + 1, then I has almost minimal j-multiplicity, G(I) is Cohen-Macaulay and r_J(I) is at most 2, where J = (x₁, _…, x_d) is a general minimal reduction of I and J_i = (x₁, _…, x_i). In addition, the last theorem is in the spirit of a result of Sally who has studied the depth of associated graded rings and minimal reductions for m-primary ideals.

Security in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is an upcoming research field which is quite different from traditional network security mechanisms. Many applications are dependent on the secure operation of a WSN, and have serious effects if the network is disrupted. Therefore, it is necessary to protect communication between sensor nodes. Key management plays an essential role in achieving security in WSNs. To achieve security, various key predistribution schemes have been proposed in the literature. A secure key management technique in WSN is a real challenging task. In this paper, a novel approach to the above problem by making use of elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) is presented. In the proposed scheme, a seed key, which is a distinct point in an elliptic curve, is assigned to each sensor node prior to its deployment. The private key ring for each sensor node is generated using the point doubling mathematical operation over the seed key. When two nodes share a common private key, then a link is established between these two nodes. By suitably choosing the value of the prime field and key ring size, the probability of two nodes sharing the same private key could be increased. The performance is evaluated in terms of connectivity and resilience against node capture. The results show that the performance is better for the proposed scheme with ECC compared to the other basic schemes.

In this paper, we introduce strongly quasi primary ideals which is an intermediate class of primary ideals and quasi primary ideals. Let R be a commutative ring with nonzero identity and Q a proper ideal of R. Then Q is called strongly quasi primary if $ab{\in}Q$ for $a,b{\in}R$ implies either $a^2{\in}Q$ or $b^n{\in}Q$ ($a^n{\in}Q$ or $b^2{\in}Q$) for some $n{\in}{\mathbb{N}}$. We give many properties of strongly quasi primary ideals and investigate the relations between strongly quasi primary ideals and other classical ideals such as primary, 2-prime and quasi primary ideals. Among other results, we give a characterization of divided rings in terms of strongly quasi primary ideals. Also, we construct a subgraph of ideal based zero divisor graph ${\Gamma}_I(R)$ and denote it by ${\Gamma}^*_I(R)$, where I is an ideal of R. We investigate the relations between ${\Gamma}^*_I(R)$ and ${\Gamma}_I(R)$. Further, we use strongly quasi primary ideals and ${\Gamma}^*_I(R)$ to characterize von Neumann regular rings.

We introduce two subclasses of abelian McCoy rings, so-called π-CN-rings and π-duo rings, and systematically study their fundamental characteristic properties accomplished with relationships among certain classical sorts of rings such as 2-primal rings, bounded rings etc. It is shown that a ring R is π-CN whenever every nilpotent element of index 2 in R is central. These rings naturally generalize the long-known class of CN-rings, introduced by Drazin [9]. It is proved that π-CN-rings are abelian, McCoy and 2-primal. We also show that, π-duo rings are strongly McCoy and abelian and also they are strongly right AB. If R is π-duo, then R[x] has property (A). If R is π-duo and it is either right weakly continuous or every prime ideal of R is maximal, then R has property (A). A π-duo ring R is left perfect if and only if R contains no infinite set of orthogonal idempotents and every left R-module has a maximal submodule. Our achieved results substantially improve many existing results.

Let D be an integral domain, S be a multiplicative subset of D such that DS is a PID, and D[X] be the polynomial ring over D. We show that S is an almost splitting set in D if and only if every nonzero prime ideal of D disjoint from S contains a primary element. We use this result to give a simple proof of the known result that D is a UMT-domain and Cl(D[X]) is torsion if and only if each upper to zero in D[X] contains a primary element.

Let (R, m) be a Noetherian local ring, I an ideal of R, and A an Artinian R-module. Let $k{\geq}0$ be an integer and $r=Width_{>k}(I,A)$ the supremum of length of A-cosequence in dimension > k in I defined by Nhan-Hoang [8]. It is shown that for all $t{\leq}r$ the sets $$(\bigcup_{i=0}^{t}Att_R(Tor_i^R(R/I^n,A)))_{{\geq}k}\;and\\(\bigcup_{i=0}^{t}Att_R(Tor_i^R(R/(a_1^{n_1},{\cdots},a_l^{n_l}),A)))_{{\geq}k}$$ are independent of the choice of $n,n_1,{\cdots},n_l$ for any system of generators ($a_1,{\cdots},a_l$) of I.

Let $p$ be an odd prime number and let F be a finite field with $p^m$ elements. We study representations and strict representations of polynomials $M{\in}F$[T] by sums of ($p^r$ + 1)-th powers. A representation $$M=M_1^k+{\cdots}+M_s^k$$ of $M{\in}F$[T] as a sum of $k$-th powers of polynomials is strict if $k$ deg $M_i<k$ + degM.

For a given number field K, we show that the ranks of elliptic curves over K are uniformly finitely bounded if and only if the weak Mordell-Weil property holds in all (some) ultrapowers $^*K$ of K. We introduce the nonstandard weak Mordell-Weil property for $^*K$ considering each Mordell-Weil group as $^*{\mathbb{Z}}$-module, where $^*{\mathbb{Z}}$ is an ultrapower of ${\mathbb{Z}}$, and we show that the nonstandard weak Mordell-Weil property is equivalent to the weak Mordell-Weil property in $^*K$. In a saturated nonstandard number field, there is a nonstandard ring of integers $^*{\mathbb{Z}}$, which is definable. We can consider definable abelian groups as $^*{\mathbb{Z}}$-modules so that the nonstandard weak Mordell-Weil property is well-defined, and we conclude that the nonstandard weak Mordell-Weil property and the weak Mordell-Weil property are equivalent. We have valuations induced from prime numbers in nonstandard rational number fields, and using these valuations, we identify two nonstandard rational numbers.
