A ring [Formula: see text] is called semiboolean if [Formula: see text] is boolean and idempotents lift modulo [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] denotes the Jacobson radical of [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we define [Formula: see text]-boolean rings as a generalization of semiboolean rings. A ring [Formula: see text] is said to be J-boolean if [Formula: see text] is boolean. Various basic properties of these rings are obtained. The [Formula: see text]-boolean group rings and skew group rings have been studied. It is investigated whether the results obtained for [Formula: see text]-boolean group rings also hold for the skew group rings.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
