Semi r-ideals of commutative rings (2210.00249v1)

Abstract: For commutative rings with identity, we introduce and study the concept of semi $r$-ideals which is a kind of generalization of both $r$-ideals and semiprime ideals. A proper ideal $I$ of a commutative ring $R$ is called semi $r$-ideal if whenever $a^{2}\in I$ and $Ann_{R}(a)=0$, then $a\in I$. Several properties and characterizations of this class of ideals are determined. In particular, we investigate semi $r$-ideal under various contexts of constructions such as direct products, localizations, homomorphic images, idealizations and amalagamations rings. We extend semi $r$-ideals of rings to semi $r$-submodules of modules and clarify some of their properties. Moreover, we define submodules satisfying the $D$-annihilator condition and justify when they are semi $r$-submodules.
