Rings in which the square of a unit is the sum of 1 and an element from $\sqrt{J(R)}$

Through this paper, we study the rings in which every unit's square is an element of the set $1+\sqrt{J(R)}$, and call them $2-\sqrt{J}U$ rings. Here, $\sqrt{J(R)}=\{x \in R: x^m \in J(R)$ for some $m \geq 1 \}$. We show that every $UU,~UJ,~2-UU,~2-UJ$ and $\sqrt{J}U$ ring is a $2-\sqrt{J}U$ ring. After exploring the basic properties, we show that the corner ring and unit closed subring of a $2-\sqrt{J}U$ ring are also $2-\sqrt{J}U$ rings. The ring of all $n\times n$ matrix rings for any $n>1$ is never a $2-\sqrt{J}U$ ring. We have focused on several other matrix extensions and group rings.

$\sqrt{J}$-clean rings

In this paper, we study a new class of rings, called $\sqrt{J}$-clean rings. A ring in which every element can be expressed as the addition of an idempotent and an element from $\sqrt{J(R)}$ is called a $\sqrt{J}$-clean ring. Here, $\sqrt{J(R)}=\{ z\in R : z^n\in J(R) \ \mathrm{for \ some} \ n \geq 1 \}$ where, $J(R)$ is the Jacobson radical. We provide the basic properties of $\sqrt{J}$-clean rings. We also show that the class of semiboolean and nil clean rings is a proper subclass of the class of $\sqrt{J}$-clean rings, which itself is a proper subclass of clean rings. We obtain basic properties of $\sqrt{J}$-clean rings and give a characterization of $\sqrt{J}$-clean rings: a ring $R$ is a $\sqrt{J}$-clean ring iff $R/J(R)$ is a $\sqrt{J}$-clean ring and idempotents lift modulo $J(R)$. We also prove that a ring is a uniquely clean ring if and only if it is a uniquely $\sqrt{J}$-clean ring. Finally, several matrix extensions like $T_n(R)$ and $D_n(R)$ over a $\sqrt{J}$-clean ring are explored.
