This paper focuses on two problems in the 10th grade mathematics, the rational zero theorem and the content(the integer divisor) of a polynomial Among 138 students participated in the problem solving, 58 of them (42 %) has used the rational zero theorem for the factorization of polynomials. However, 30 of 58 students (52 %) consider the rational zero theorem is a mathematical fake(false statement) and they only use it to get a correct answer. There are three different types in the textbooks in dealing with the content of a polynomial with integer coefficients. Computing the greatest common divisor of polynomials, some textbooks consider the content of polynomials, some do not and others suggest both methods. This also makes students confused. We suggests that a separate section of the rational zero theorem must be included in the text. As for the content of a polynomial, we consider the polynomials are contained in the polynomial ring over the rational numbers. So computing the gcd of polynomials, guide the students to give a monic(or primitive) polynomial as ail answer.

Let ℤ_n be the ring of integers modulo n and let ℤ_n[X]] be either ℤ_n[X] or ℤ_n[[X]]. Let 𝚪(Z_n[X]]) be the zero-divisor graph of ℤ_n[X]]. In this paper, we study some properties of 𝚪(ℤ_n[X]]). More precisely, we completely characterize the diameter and the girth of 𝚪(ℤ_n[X]]). We also calculate the chromatic number of 𝚪(ℤ_n[X]]).

We classify linear maps which preserve idempotents on $n{\times}n$ matrices over some classes of semirings. Our results include many known semirings like the semiring of all nonnegative integers, the semiring of all nonnegative reals, any unital commutative ring, which is zero divisor free and of characteristic not two (not necessarily a principal ideal domain), and the ring of integers modulo m, where m is a product of distinct odd primes.

This note we give a construction of a quotient ring $R/{\mu}$ induced via a fuzzy ideal ${\mu}$ in a ring R. The Fuzzy First, Second and Third Isomorphism Theorems are established. For some applications of this construction of quotient rings, we show that if ${\mu}$ is a fuzzy ideal of a commutative ring R, then $\mu$ is prime (resp. $R/{\mu}$ is a field, every zero divisor in $R/{\mu}$ is nilpotent). Moreover we give a simpler characterization of fuzzy maximal ideal of a ring.

Let R be a finite commutative ring with non zero identity. The unit graph of R denoted by G(R) is the graph obtained by setting all the elements of R to be the vertices of a graph and two distinct vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if x + y ∈ U(R), where U(R) denotes the set of units of R. In this paper, we find the commutative rings R for which G(R) is a line graph. Also, we find the rings for which the complements of unit graphs are line graphs.

In this paper we obtain a new structure of a k-annihilating ideal hypergraph of a reduced ring R, by determine the order and size of a hypergraph 𝒜𝒢_k(R). Also we describe and count the degree of every nontrivial ideal of a ring R containing in vertex set 𝒜(R, k) of a hypergraph 𝒜𝒢_k(R). Furthermore, we prove the diameter of 𝒜𝒢_k(R) must be less than or equal to 2. Finally, we determine the minimal dominating set of a k-annihilating ideal hypergraph of a ring R.

The motivation in this paper comes from the recent results about Bell inequalities and topological insulators from group theory. Symmetries which are interested in group theory could be mainly used to find material structures. In this point of views, we study group extending by adding one relator which is easily called an equation. So a relative group extension by a adding relator is aspherical if the natural injection is one-to-one and the group ring has no zero divisor. One of concepts of asphericity means that a new group by a adding relator is well extended. Also, we consider that several equations and relative presentations over torsion-free groups are related to zero divisors.

The aim of the Paper is to Obtain information about the flat covers and minimal flat resolutions of Artinian modules over a Noetherian ring. Let R be a commutative Noetherian ring and let A be an Artinian R-module. We prove that the flat cover of a is of the form $\prod_{p\epsilonAtt_R(A)}T-p$, where $Tp$ is the completion of a free R$_{p}$-module. Also, we construct a minimal flat resolution for R/xR-module 0: $_AX$ from a given minimal flat resolution of A, when n is a non-unit and non-zero divisor of R such that A = $\chiA$. This result leads to a description of the structure of a minimal flat resolution for ${H^n}_{\underline{m}}(R)$, nth local cohomology module of R with respect to the ideal $\underline{m}$, over a local Cohen-Macaulay ring (R, $\underline{m}$) of dimension n.

In [12], McCoy proved that if R is a commutative ring, then whenever g(x) is a zero-divisor in R[x], there exists a nonzero c $\in$ R such that cg(x) = 0. In this paper, first we extend this result to monoid rings. Then for a monoid M, we give some examples of M-quasi-Armendariz rings which are a generalization of quasi-Armendariz rings. Every reduced ring is M-quasi-Armendariz for any unique product monoid M and any strictly totally ordered monoid $(M,\;{\leq})$. Also $T_4(R)$ is M-quasi-Armendariz when R is reduced and M-Armendariz.

Let R be a commutative ring and I its proper ideal, let S(I) be the set of all elements of R that are not prime to I. Here we introduce and study the total graph of a commutative ring R with respect to proper ideal I, denoted by T(${\Gamma}_I(R)$). It is the (undirected) graph with all elements of R as vertices, and for distinct x, y ${\in}$ R, the vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if x + y ${\in}$ S(I). The total graph of a commutative ring, that denoted by T(${\Gamma}(R)$), is the graph where the vertices are all elements of R and where there is an undirected edge between two distinct vertices x and y if and only if x + y ${\in}$ Z(R) which is due to Anderson and Badawi [2]. In the case I = {0}, $T({\Gamma}_I(R))=T({\Gamma}(R))$; this is an important result on the definition.
