Formal Matrix Rings with the Involution Property

Abstract

We study formal matrix rings with the involution property, that is, rings in which every element can be represented as the sum of an invertible element and an involution. After recalling the construction of formal matrix rings via Morita contexts, we describe involutions in triangular formal matrix rings and establish a criterion for upper triangular rings of order two. We then prove that a formal matrix ring of arbitrary finite order has the involution property whenever all of its diagonal rings have this property. Several examples and counterexamples are included to illustrate the obtained results.
