Comment.Math.Univ.Carolin. 61,1 (2020) 1-10.

Abstract:Let $C$ be an associative commutative ring with 1. If $a\in C$, then $aC$ denotes the principal ideal generated by $a$. Let $l, m, n$ be nonzero elements of $C$ such that $mn \in lC$. The set of matrices $\left( \begin{smallmatrix} a_{11} & a_{12} a_{21} & -a_{11} \end{smallmatrix} \right) $, where $a_{11}\in lC$, $a_{12}\in mC$, $a_{21}\in nC$, forms a Lie ring under Lie multiplication and matrix addition. The paper studies properties of these Lie rings.

Keywords: Lie ring; associative commutative ring; matrix
