A Note on Commutative Nil-Clean Corners in Unital Rings

Author(s)
P. V. Danchev
Abstract

We shall prove that if R is a ring with a family of orthogonal idempotents {ei}ni=1 having sum 1 such that each corner subring eiRei is commutative nil-clean, then R is too nil-clean, by showing that this assertion is actually equivalent to the statement established by Breaz-Călugăreanu-Danchev-Micu in Lin. Algebra & Appl. (2013) that if R is a commutative nil-clean ring, then the full matrix ring Mn(R) is also nil-clean for any size n. Likewise, the present proof somewhat supplies our recent result in Bull. Iran. Math. Soc. (2018) concerning strongly nil-clean corner rings as well as it gives a new strategy for further developments of the investigated theme.
