Generalized near-fields

Extract
By analogy with the concept of “inverse semi-group” in semi-group theory, in this paper we introduce the concept of “generalized near-field” in near-rings. A near-ring N is called a generalized near-field (GNF) if for each a ε N there exists a unique b ε N such that a = aba and b = bab, that is (N, ·) is an inverse semi-group. Surprisingly, this concept in rings coincides with that of “strong regularity”. But this is not true in the case of near-rings. Every GNF is strongly regular, but in general the converse is not true.
