On rings with prime centers
Let R be a ring, and let C denote the center of R. R is said to have a prime center if whenever ab belongs to C then a belongs to C or b belongs to C. The structure of certain classes of these rings is studied, along with the relation of the notion of prime centers to commutativity. An example of a...

| Summary: | Let R be a ring, and let C denote the center of R. R is said to have a prime center if whenever ab belongs to C then a belongs to C or b belongs to C. The structure of certain classes of these rings is studied, along with the relation of the notion of prime centers to commutativity. An example of a non-commutative ring with a prime center is given. |
