Abstract

Let R be a ring, e2 = e ∈ R and δ(R) stand for the intersection of all essential maximal right ideals of R which is called the Zhou radical. The aim of this paper is to apply the Zhou radical to the e-reducedness of rings. In this direction, a ring R is said to be Zhou right (respectively, left) e-reduced if for any nilpotent a in R, we have ae ∈ δ(R) (respectively, ea ∈ δ(R)). For nonzero idempotents, we investigate properties and supply examples of Zhou right e-reduced rings. Along these lines, we show that right e-semicommutative rings (and so right e-reduced rings and e-symmetric rings), central semicommutative rings and weak symmetric rings are Zhou right e-reduced. As an application, we deal with some extensions of Zhou right e-reduced rings.
