Abstract

Let R be a commutative ring with nonzero identity, let I(R) be the set of all ideals of R and δ: I(R) → I(R) an expansion of ideals of R defined by I ↦ δ(I). We introduce the concept of (δ, 2)-primary ideals in commutative rings. A proper ideal I of R is called a (δ, 2)-primary ideal if whenever a, b ∈ R and ab ∈ I, then a2 ∈ I or b2 ∈ δ(I). Our purpose is to extend the concept of 2-ideals to (δ, 2)-primary ideals of commutative rings. Then we investigate the basic properties of (δ, 2)-primary ideals and also discuss the relations among (δ, δ-primary, δ-primary and 2-prime ideals.
