In this paper, a skew polynomial ring $R[x;\alpha]$ of a ring R with a monomorphism $\alpha$ are investigated as follows: For a reduced ring R, assume that $\alpha(P){\subseteq}P$ for any minimal prime ideal P in R. Then (i) $R[x;\alpha]$ is a reduced ring, (ii) a ring R is Baer(resp. quasi-Baer, p.q.-Baer, a p.p.-ring) if and only if the skew polynomial ring $R[x;\alpha]$ is Baer(resp. quasi-Baer, p.q.-Baer, a p.p.-ring).

Let R be a ring and ${\alpha}$ a monomorphism of R. We study the skew Laurent polynomial rings R[x, x$^{-1}$; ${\alpha}$] over an ${\alpha}$-skew Armendariz ring R. We show that, if R is an ${\alpha}$-skew Armendariz ring, then R is a Baer (resp. p.p.-)ring if and only if R[x, x$^{-1}$; ${\alpha}$] is a Baer (resp. p.p.-) ring. Consequently, if R is an Armendariz ring, then R is a Baer (resp. p.p.-)ring if and only if R[x, x$^{-1}$] is a Baer (resp. p.p.-)ring.

Let (R, T) be a normal pair of commutative rings (i.e., R ${\subseteq}$ T is a unita extension of commutative rings, not necessarily integral domains, such that S is integrally closed in T for each ring S such that R ${\subseteq}$ S ${\subseteq}$ T) such that the total quotient ring of R is a von Neumann regular ring. Let P be one of the following ring-theoretic properties: going-down ring, extensionally going-down (EGD) ring, locally divided ring. Then R has P if and only if T has P. An example shows that the "if" part of the assertion fails if P is taken to be the "divided domain" property.

Annual ring formation is considered a source of information to investigate the effects of environmental changes caused by temperature, air pollution, and acid rain on tree growth. A comparative investigation of annual ring growth of Cryptomeria japonica in relation to environmental changes was conducted at two sites in southern Korea (Haenam and Jangseong). Three wood disks from each site were collected from stems at breast height and annual ring growth was analyzed. Annual ring area at two sites increased over time (p > 0.05). Tree ring growth rate in Jangseong was higher than that in Haenam. Annual ring area increment in Jangseong was more strongly correlated with environmental variables than that in Haenam; annual ring growth increased with increasing temperature (p < 0.01) and a positive effect of $NO_2$ concentration on annual ring area (p < 0.05) could be attributed to nitrogen deposition in Jangseong. The correlation of annual ring growth increased with decreasing $SO_2$ and $CO_2$ concentrations (p < 0.01) in Jangseong. Variation in annual growth rings in Jangseong could be associated with temperature changes and N deposition. In Haenam, annual ring growth was correlated with $SO_2$ concentration (p < 0.01), and there was a negative relationship between precipitation pH and annual ring area (p < 0.01) which may reflect changes in nutrient cycles due to the acid rain. Therefore, the combined effects of increased $CO_2$, N deposition, and temperature on tree ring growth in Jangseong may be linked to soil acidification in this forest ecosystem. The interactions between air pollution ($SO_2$) and precipitation pH in Haenam may affect tree growth and may change nutrient cycles in this site. These results suggested that annual tree ring growth in Jangseong was more correlated with environmental variables than that in Haenam. However, the further growth of C. japonica forest at two sites is at risk from the long-term effects of acid deposition from fossil fuel combustion.

Let R be a ring with identity and P(R) denote the prime radical of R. An element r of a ring R is called strongly P-clean, if there exists an idempotent e such that $r-e=p{\in}P$(R) with ep = pe. In this paper, we determine necessary and sufficient conditions for an element of a trivial Morita context to be strongly P-clean.

The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new class of rings that is closely related to the classes of pseudo valuation rings (PVRs) and pseudo-almost valuation domains (PAVDs). A commutative ring R is said to be ${\phi}$-ring if its nilradical Nil(R) is both prime and comparable with each principal ideal. The name is derived from the natural map ${\phi}$ from the total quotient ring T(R) to R localized at Nil(R). A prime ideal P of a ${\phi}$-ring R is said to be a ${\phi}$-pseudo-strongly prime ideal if, whenever $x,y{\in}R_{Nil(R)}$ and $(xy){\phi}(P){\subseteq}{\phi}(P)$, then there exists an integer $m{\geqslant}1$ such that either $x^m{\in}{\phi}(R)$ or $y^m{\phi}(P){\subseteq}{\phi}(P)$. If each prime ideal of R is a ${\phi}$-pseudo strongly prime ideal, then we say that R is a ${\phi}$-pseudo-almost valuation ring (${\phi}$-PAVR). Among the properties of ${\phi}$-PAVRs, we show that a quasilocal ${\phi}$-ring R with regular maximal ideal M is a ${\phi}$-PAVR if and only if V = (M : M) is a ${\phi}$-almost chained ring with maximal ideal $\sqrt{MV}$. We also investigate the overrings of a ${\phi}$-PAVR.

Let R be a ring R and ${\sigma}$ be an endomorphism of R. R is called ${\sigma}$-rigid (resp. reduced) if $a{\sigma}r(a) = 0 (resp{\cdot}a^2 = 0)$ for any $a{\in}R$ implies a = 0. An ideal I of R is called a ${\sigma}$-ideal if ${\sigma}(I){\subseteq}I$. R is called ${\sigma}$-quasi-Baer (resp. right (or left) ${\sigma}$-p.q.-Baer) if the right annihilator of every ${\sigma}$-ideal (resp. right (or left) principal ${\sigma}$-ideal) of R is generated by an idempotent of R. In this paper, a skew polynomial ring A = R[$x;{\sigma}$] of a ring R is investigated as follows: For a ${\sigma}$-rigid ring R, (1) R is ${\sigma}$-quasi-Baer if and only if A is quasi-Baer if and only if A is $\={\sigma}$-quasi-Baer for every extended endomorphism $\={\sigma}$ on A of ${\sigma}$ (2) R is right ${\sigma}$-p.q.-Baer if and only if R is ${\sigma}$-p.q.-Baer if and only if A is right p.q.-Baer if and only if A is p.q.-Baer if and only if A is $\={\sigma}$-p.q.-Baer if and only if A is right $\={\sigma}$-p.q.-Baer for every extended endomorphism $\={\sigma}$ on A of ${\sigma}$.

Recently, it was proved that every p-Schur ring over an abelian group of order $p^3$ is Schurian. In this paper, we prove that every commutative p-Schur ring over a non-abelian group of order $p^3$ is Schurian.

Every ring considered in the paper will be assumed to be commutative and have a unit element. An ideal A of a ring R will be called primal if the elements of R which are zero divisors modulo A, form an ideal of R, say pp. If A is a primal ideal of R, P is called the adjoint ideal of A. The adjoint ideal of a primal ideal is prime [2]. The definition of primal ideals may also be formulated as follows: An ideal A of a ring R is primal if in the residue class ring R/A the zero divisors form an ideal of R/A. If Q is a primary idel of a ring R then every zero divisor of R/Q is nilpotent; therefore, Q is a primal ideal of R. That a primal ideal need not be primary, is shown by an example in [2]. Let R[X], and R[[X]] denote the polynomial ring and formal power series ring in an indeterminate X over a ring R, respectively. Let S be a multiplicative system in a ring R and S$^{-1}$ R the quotient ring of R. Let Q be a P-primary ideal of a ring R. Then Q[X] is a P[X]-primary ideal of R[X], and S$^{-1}$ Q is a S$^{-1}$ P-primary ideal of a ring S$^{-1}$ R if S.cap.P=.phi., and Q[[X]] is a P[[X]]-primary ideal of R[[X]] if R is Noetherian [1]. We search for analogous results when primary ideals are replaced with primal ideals. To show an ideal A of a ring R to be primal, it sufficies to show that a-b is a zero divisor modulo A whenever a and b are zero divisors modulo A.
