The symmetric ring property was due to Lambek and provided many useful results in relation with noncommutative ring theory. In this note we consider this property over centers, introducing symmetric-over-center. It is shown that symmetric and symmetric-over-center are independent of each other. The structure of symmetric-over-center ring is studied in relation to various radicals of polynomial rings.

A property of reduced rings is proved in relation with centers, and our argument in this article is spread out based on this. It is also proved that the Wedderburn radical coincides with the set of all nilpotents in symmetric-over-center rings, implying that the Jacobson radical, all nilradicals, and the set of all nilpotents are equal in polynomial rings over symmetric-over-center rings. It is shown that reduced rings are reversible-over-center, and that given reversible-over-center rings, various sorts of reversible-over-center rings can be constructed. The structure of radicals in reversible-over-center and symmetric-over-center rings is also investigated.

In this paper, we consider a conjecture of I. N. Herstein for local commutators of symmetric elements and unitary elements of division rings. For example, we show that if D is a finite dimensional division ring with involution ${\star}$ and if $a{\in}D^*=D{\setminus}\{0\}$ such that local commutators $axa^{-1}x^{-1}$ at a are radical over the center F of D for every $x{\in}D^*$ with $x^{\star}=x$, then either $a{\in}F$ or ${\dim}_F\;D=4$.

This article concerns a ring property that arises from combining one-sided duo factor rings and centers. A ring R is called right CIFD if R/I is right duo by some proper ideal I of R such that I is contained in the center of R. We first see that this property is seated between right duo and right π-duo, and not left-right symmetric. We prove, for a right CIFD ring R, that W(R) coincides with the set of all nilpotent elements of R; that R/P is a right duo domain for every minimal prime ideal P of R; that R/W(R) is strongly right bounded; and that every prime ideal of R is maximal if and only if R/W(R) is strongly regular, where W(R) is the Wedderburn radical of R. It is also proved that a ring R is commutative if and only if D₃(R) is right CIFD, where D₃(R) is the ring of 3 by 3 upper triangular matrices over R whose diagonals are equal. Furthermore, we show that the right CIFD property does not pass to polynomial rings, and that the polynomial ring over a ring R is right CIFD if and only if R/I is commutative by a proper ideal I of R contained in the center of R.
