Abstract

In the present paper we first establish decomposition theorems for near rings satisfying either of the properties xy = xmypxn or xy = ymxpyn, where m≥1, n≥1, p≥1 are positive integers depending on the pair of near ring elements x,y; and further, we investigate commutativity of such near rings. Moreover, it is also shown that under some additional hypotheses, such nearrings turn out to be commutative rings.
