If(r, s) ρ for some r, s R, then h (r) = h(s) and this implies that h(s) = h(r). Thus,(s, r) ρ and so 3.2 Example the relation ρ is symmetric. Now if (r, s), (s, t) ρ, then Consider the seminear-ring ( Ω , +, ⋅) of Example 2.2 (iii). according to the definitionh (r) = h (s) and h(s) = h (t) and Let = {(A, B): A = B} be a relation on Ω .

Obviously ranα = ran Φ and from the definition it is Proof clear that for all x∈R First, we show that σ/ρ is a congruence relation.

R/ρ Choose xρ, yρ∈R/ρ, then Proof b(xρ+ yρ) = b((x + y)ρ)= (x + y)σ = xσ+yσ= b(xρ ) +b(xρ) Define the mapping β : R/ρ → S by β (xρ) = Φ (x) for all and xρ∈R/ρ. Then β is well-defined, because for allx ρ, yρ∈ b(xρ ∙ yρ) = b((x ∙ y)ρ) = (x ∙ y)σ= xσ ∙ yσ= b(xρ) ∙ b(yρ). R/ρ, xρ = yρ ⇒ (x, y) ∈ρ ⊆ ker Φ ⇒ Φ (x) = Φ (y) ⇒ β (xρ) = β (yρ). It follows that β is a homomorphism. So by Theorem β is a homomorphism, since for xρ, yρ∈R/ρ, 4.3, there is a monomorphism b(xρ+yρ)= b[(x + y)ρ] = Φ (x + y) = Φ(x) ⊕ Φ (y) α : R/ρ|ker β → R/σ = b(xρ) ⊕b(yρ) defined by α ((xρ )ker β ) =x σ.

5.1 Theorem Associative laws Let I be a c-ideal of a seminear-ring (R, +, ∙). Then, I Choose a, b, c∈R such that a + I, b + I, c + I ∈R/I, then define a congruence relation ρ on R given by (r, s) ρ if (i) With respect to ‘+’: and only if there exist x, y I such that r + x = y + s. (a + I+b + I) +c + I = (a + b) + I+c + I Proof = ((a + b) + c)) + I Let r R and x I. As I is a c-ideals of R, there exists x , 1 = ((a + (b + c)) + I x I such that r + x + x = x + x + r. This implies that 2 1 2 = a + I+ (b + c) + I (r, r) ρ, since I is an ideal. Let (r, s) ρ for some r, s = a + I+(b + I+c + I). R. Then there arex 1, x2 I such that r + x1 = x2 + s. As I is a c-ideal of R, there exist x3, x4, x5, x6 I such that r + (ii) With respect to ‘ ’: x1 + x3 = x4 + x1 + r and s + x2 + x5 = x6 + x2 + s. This implies ∙ ∙ ∙ ∙ x6 + x4+ x1 + r = s + x2 + x5+ x3 which implies that (s, r) (a + I b + I) c + I = (a b) + I c + I ρ. Let r, s, t R such that (r, s) ρ and (s, t) ρ. Then = ((a ∙ b) ∙ c)) + I

there exist x1, x2, y1, y2 I such that r + x1 = x2 + s and = ((a ∙ (b ∙ c)) + I

s + y1 = y2 + t. This implies that r + x1+ y1= x2 + s + y1 = = a + I ∙ (b ∙ c) + I x + y + t which implies (r, t) ρ. It follows that ρ is an 2 2 = a + I ∙ (b+ I ∙ c + I). equivalence relation. Thus R/I( , +) and (R/I, ∙) are semigroups. Again as I is an ideal of R, (r, s) ρ for some r, s R implies (t ∙ r, t ∙ s) ρ, and (r ∙ t,s ∙ t) ρ, for all t R. Right distributive law Finally let r, s, t R such that (r, s) ρ. This implies thatr Choose a, b, c ∈R such that a+ I, b+ I,c+ I∈R/I, then

+ x1 = x2 + s. for some x1, x2 I. Therefore t + (r + x1) + x3 (b+ I+c+ I) ∙ a+ I = (b + c)+ I ∙ a+ I = t + (x2 + s) + x3= x4+ (x2 + s) + t for some x3, x4 I, since I is a c-ideal of R. Thus t( + r,t + s) ρ. Now using (t + r, =((b + c) ∙ a) + I t + s) ρ and by using the fact that I is a c-ideal and ρ is = (b ∙ a + c ∙ a) + I symmetric we may get (r + t, s + t) ρ. Thereforeρ is left as = (b ∙ a) + I+ (c ∙ a) + I well as right congruence relation. This completes the proof. = b+ I ∙ a+ I+c+ I ∙ a+ I Now let ρ be the above congruence relation on the Thus (R/I, +, ∙) is a seminear-ring which is called quo- seminear-ring R. Assume that a+ I represents the con- tient seminear-ring. gruence class corresponding to the element a∈R and R/I represents the set of all congruence classes, i.e. R/I = {a + I : a∈R}. 6. Conclusion The following result shows that R/I becomes a ­seminear-ring. If we assume that (R, +, ∙) and (S, , ) are two semi-

near-rings with additive identities 0R and 0S, then we say 5.2 Theorem that a map a: R S is a homomorphism if it satisfies Let (R, +, ∙) be a seminear-ring and I c-ideal of R. ThenR/I the conditions of Definition 2.7 along with the condi-

Further if we assume (a + I) + (b + I) = (a + b) + I and (a + I) ∙ (b + I) = (a ∙ b) + I. that x 0S = 0S x =0S for all x S, then we may prove Proof that kernel is an ideal but we don’t know that whether it First we show that the above binary operations are well- is a c-ideal or not. Also we know that intersection of two defined. Choose a, b, c, d∈R such that a + I = c + I and ideals of a seminear-ring T is either empty or an ideal b + I = d + I, then Lemma 4.2, (a, c)∈ρ and (b, d)∈ρ. Thus (a + b, c + d), (a ∙ b, c ∙ d)∈ρ, sinceρ is a congru- of T but we don’t know that whether the intersection of ence relation. Thus again by Lemma 4.2, this implies that two c-ideals is a c-ideal or not. Therefore we are unable (a + b) + I= (c + d)+ I and (a ∙ b) + I = (c ∙ d) + I. Further to prove the analogues of the well known isomorphism we prove theorems.
