Abstract

We make a study of two generalizations of regular rings, concentrating our attention on the structure of idempotents. A ring R is said to be right attaching-idempotent if for $a{\in}R$ there exists $0{\neq}b{\in}R$ such that ab is an idempotent. Next R is said to be generalized regular if for $0{\neq}a{\in}R$ there exist nonzero $b{\in}R$ such that ab is a nonzero idempotent. It is first checked that generalized regular is left-right symmetric but right attaching-idempotent is not. The generalized regularity is shown to be a Morita invariant property. More structural properties of these two concepts are also investigated.
