Abstract

The main theorem of this paper is that a ring R with unity is commutative if and only if there is a nil subset B of R such that

l. for each x ? R, either x ? Z(R) or there is a polynormial f over Z with x - x2f (x)  ? B;

2. for each x, y x ? R, there are non-negative integers n > 1, m, r, s depending on a pair of ring elements x,y with x(xmy ± xrynxs) - (xmy ± xrynxs)x = 0.

A related result for a nil commutative subset of R is given and the restrictions on the hypothesis of our result are justified by examples.
