On Jordan ideals and left (θ, θ)‐derivations in prime rings
Let R be a ring and S a nonempty subset of R. Suppose that θ and ϕ are endomorphisms of R. An additive mapping δ : R → R is called a left (θ, ϕ)‐derivation (resp., Jordan left (θ, ϕ)‐derivation) on S if δ(xy) = θ(x)δ(y) + ϕ(y)δ(x) (resp., δ(x2) = θ(x)δ(x) + ϕ(x)δ(x)) holds for all x, y ∈ S.

A commutativity‐or‐finiteness condition for rings
We show that a ring with only finitely many noncentral subrings must be either commutative or finite.

Weakly periodic and subweakly periodic rings
Our objective is to study the structure of subweakly periodic rings with a particular emphasis on conditions which imply that such rings are commutative or have a nil commutator ideal. Related results are also established for weakly periodic (as well as periodic) rings.

A combinatorial commutativity property for rings
We study commutativity in rings R with the property that for a fixed positive integer n, xS = Sx for all x ∈ R and all n‐subsets S of R.

Generalized periodic and generalized Boolean rings
We prove that a generalized periodic, as well as a generalized Boolean, ring is either commutative or periodic. We also prove that a generalized Boolean ring with central idempotents must be nil or commutative. We further consider conditions which imply the commutativity of a generalized periodic, or a generalized Boolean, ring.

For prime rings R, we characterize the set U∩CR([U, U]), where U is a right ideal of R; and we apply our result to obtain a commutativity‐or‐finiteness theorem. We include extensions to semiprime rings.

On structure of certain periodic rings and near‐rings
The aim of this work is to study a decomposition theorem for rings satisfying either of the properties xy = xpf(xyx)xq or xy = xpf(yxy)xq, where p = p(x, y), q = q(x, y) are nonnegative integers and f(t) ∈ tℤ[t] vary with the pair of elements x, y, and further investigate the commutativity of such rings.

Commutativity results for semiprime rings with derivations
We extend a result of Herstein concerning a derivation d on a prime ring R satisfying [d(x), d(y)] = 0 for all x, y ∈ R, to the case of semiprime rings. An extension of this result is proved for a two‐sided ideal but is shown to be not true for a one‐sided ideal.

Commutativity of one sided s‐unital rings through a Streb′s result
The main theorem proved in the present paper states as follows “Let m, k, n and s be fixed non‐negative integers such that k and n are not simultaneously equal to 1 and R be a left (resp right) s‐unital ring satisfying [(xmyk)n−xsy,x]=0 (resp [(xmyk)n−yxs,x]=0) Then R is commutative.” Further commutativity of left s‐unital rings satisfying the ...

Let R be a ring, and let N and C denote the set of nilpotents and the center of R, respectively. R is called generalized periodic if for every x ∈ R\(N ⋃ C), there exist distinct positive integers m, n of opposite parity such that xn − xm ∈ N ⋂ C. We prove that a generalized periodic ring always has the set N of nilpotents forming an ideal in R.
