On wsq-primary ideals

Abstract

We introduce weakly strongly quasi-primary (briefly, wsq-primary) ideals in commutative rings. Let $R$ be a commutative ring with a nonzero identity and $Q$ a proper ideal of $R$. The proper ideal $Q$ is said to be a weakly strongly quasi-primary ideal if whenever $0\neq ab\in Q$ for some $a,b\in R$, then $a^2\in Q$ or $b\in\sqrt{Q}.$ Many examples and properties of wsq-primary ideals are given. Also, we characterize nonlocal Noetherian von Neumann regular rings, fields, nonlocal rings over which every proper ideal is wsq-primary, and zero dimensional rings over which every proper ideal is wsq-primary. Finally, we study finite union of wsq-primary ideals.
