Abstract

A proper ideal I of a commutative ring R is n-absorbing (resp. strongly n-absorbing) if for all elements (resp. ideals) a1,., an+1of R/I, a1· · · an+1= 0 implies that the product of some n of the ai is 0. It was conjectured by Anderson and Badawi that if I is an n-absorbing ideal of R then (1) I is strongly n-absorbing, (2) I[x] is an n-absorbing ideal of R[x], and (3) Rad(I)n⊆ I. We prove that these conjectures hold in various classes of rings, thus extending several known results on n-absorbing ideals. As a by-product, we show that (2) implies (1).
