Abstract

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with non-zero identity, and $\delta :\mathcal{I(R)}\rightarrow\mathcal{I(R)}$ be an ideal expansion where $\mathcal{I(R)}$ is the set of all ideals of $R$. In this paper, we introduce the concept of $\delta$-$n$-ideals which is an extension of $n$-ideals in commutative rings. We call a proper ideal $I$ of $R$ a $\delta$-$n$-ideal if
whenever $a,b\in R$ with$\ ab\in I$ and $a\notin\sqrt{0}$, then $b\in \delta(I)$. For example, an ideal expansion $\delta_{1}$ is defined by $\delta_{1}(I)=\sqrt{I}.$ In this case, a $\delta_{1}$-$n$-ideal $I$ is said to be a quasi $n$-ideal or equivalently, $I$ is quasi $n$-ideal if $\sqrt{I}$ is an $n$-ideal. A number of characterizations and results with many
supporting examples concerning this new class of ideals are given. In particular, we present some results regarding quasi $n$-ideals. Furthermore, we use $\delta$-$n$-ideals to characterize fields and UN-rings.
