Special Properties of Rings of Skew Generalized Power Series

Abstract

Let R be a ring, S a strictly ordered monoid, and ω: S → End(R) a monoid homomorphism. In [30], Marks, Mazurek, and Ziembowski study the (S, ω)-Armendariz condition on R, a generalization of the standard Armendariz condition from polynomials to skew generalized power series. Following [30], we provide various classes of nonreduced (S, ω)-Armendariz rings, and determine radicals of the skew generalized power series ring R[[S ≤, ω]], in terms of those of an (S, ω)-Armendariz ring R. We also obtain some characterizations for a skew generalized power series ring to be local, semilocal, clean, exchange, uniquely clean, 2-primal, or symmetric.
