Abstract:
Let R be a prime ring with identity, center $Z \ne GF(2)$, and a nonidentity idempotent. If R is not finite and if $x \in R - Z$, then x has infinitely many distinct conjugates in R. If R has infinitely many Z-independent elements then $x \in R - Z$ has infinitely many Z-independent conjugates.References
