Abstract

Let S be a semigroup with zero 0 and let n ≥ 2. We say that S satisfies for each permutation σ ∈ S n A ring R satisfies ZC n if (.R, .) satisfies ZC n . We show that if S satisfies ZC n for a fixed n ≥ 3, then S also satisfies ZC n+1 , but we give an example of a ring R with identity which satisfies ZC 2 but does not satisfy ZC 3 We show that a semigroup with no nonzero nilpotents satisfiesZC n for all n ≥ 2 and investigate rings that satisfy ZC n .
