A new class of rings having the McCoy condition
摘要
We define and examine in-depth the notion of a weakly reversible ring showing that all weakly reversible rings are abelian McCoy rings and so, in particular, they are abelian 2-primal rings. Moreover, we construct a weakly reversible ring which is not reversible. We also prove that, if R is a weakly reversible ring, then the polynomial ring R[x] is strongly AB. Thus, in particular, the weakly reversible ring R is zip if, and only if, R[x] is zip. We, moreover, establish that if R is a weakly reversible ring and every prime ideal of R is maximal, then both R and R[x] are AB rings.
