Unit Groups of Some Classes of Power Four Radical Zero Commutative Completely Primary Finite Rings
(International Journal of Algebra, 2014)Let R be a completely primary finite ring and J be its Jacobson radical. A class of such rings in which J4 = (0), J3 = (0) has been constructed. Moreover, the structures of their groups of units have been determined ... -
Units of Commutative Completely Primary Finite Rings of Characteristic pn
(International Journ. of Algebra, 2013-01)The characterization of the group of units of any commutative ring has not been done in general, and previous studies have restricted the classes of rings or groups under consideration. In this work, we determine the ... -
