Abstract
In [1], Anderson and Badawi conjecture that every n-absorbing ideal of a commutative ring is strongly n-absorbing. In this article we prove their conjecture in certain cases (in particular this is the case for commutative algebras over an infinite field). We also show that an affirmative answer to another conjecture in [1] implies the Anderson-Badawi Conjecture.
