We introduce the concept of S-exchange rings to unify various subclass of exchange rings, where S is a subset of the ring. Many properties on S-exchange rings are obtained. For instance, we show that a ring R is clean if and only if R is left U(R)-exchange, a ring R is nil clean if and only if R is left (N(R) - 1)-exchange, and that a ring R is J-clean if and only if R is left (J(R) - 1)-exchange. As a conclusion, we obtain a sufficient condition such that clean (nil clean property, respectively) can pass to corners and reprove that J-clean passes to corners by a different way.

We characterize QB-ideals of exchange rings by means of quasi-invertible elements and annihilators. Further, we prove that every $2\times2$ matrix over such ideals of a regular ring admits a diagonal reduction by quasi-inverse matrices. Prime exchange QB-rings are studied as well.

All rings are assumed to be associative but do not necessarily have an identity. In this paper, we carry out a study of ring theoretic properties of formal triangular matrix rings. Some results are obtained on these rings concerning properties such as being $I_0$-ring, I-ring, exchange ring.

In this paper, we introduce a new class of rings, SB-rings. We establish various properties of this concept. These shows that, in several respects, SB-rings behave like rings satisfying unit 1-stable range. We will give necessary and sufficient conditions under which a semilocal ring is a SB-ring. Furthermore, we extend these results to exchange rings with all primitive factors artinian. For such rings, we observe that the concept of the SB-ring coincides with Goodearl-Menal condition. These also generalize the results of Huh et al., Yu and the author on rings generated by their units.

We prove, in this article, that a ring R is a stable exchange ring if and only if so are all its Pierce stalks. If every Pierce stalks of R is artinian, then $1_R$ = u + $\upsilon$ with u, $\upsilon$ $\in$ U(R) if and only if for any a $\in$ R, there exist u, $\upsilon$ $\in$ U(R) such that a = u + $\upsilon$. Furthermore, there exists u $\in$ U(R) such that $1_R\;{\pm}\;u\;\in\;U(R)$ if and only if for any a $\in$ R, there exists u $\in$ U(R) such that $a\;{\pm}\;u\;\in\;U(R)$. We will give analogues to normal exchange rings. The root properties of such exchange rings are also obtained.

P. V$\acute{a}$mos called a ring R 2-good if every element is the sum of two units. The ring of all $n{\times}n$ matrices over an elementary divisor ring is 2-good. A (right) self-injective von Neumann regular ring is 2-good provided it has no 2-torsion. Some of the earlier results known to us about 2-good rings (although nobody so called at those times) were due to Ehrlich, Henriksen, Fisher, Snider, Rapharl and Badawi. We continue in this paper the study of 2-good rings by several authors. We give some examples of 2-good rings and their related properties. In particular, it is shown that if R is an exchange ring with Artinian primitive factors and 2 is a unit in R, then R is 2-good. We also investigate various kinds of extensions of 2-good rings, including the polynomial extension, Nagata extension and Dorroh extension.

A ring R has weakly stable range one provided that aR+bR=R implies that there exists a $y{\in}R$ such that $a+by{\in}R$ is right or left invertible. We prove, in this paper, that every regular element in an exchange ring having weakly stable range one is the sum of an idempotent and a weak unit. This generalize the corresponding result of one-sided unit-regular ring. Extensions of power comparability and power cancellation are also studied.

In this paper, we investigate exchange ideals and get some new characterization of exchange rings. It is shown that an ideal I of a ring R is an exchange ideal if and only if so is $QM_2$(I). Also we observe that every exchange ideal can be characterized by exchange elements.
