Abstract:
Matrix near-rings had been defined by Meldrum and Van der Walt in 1986 and although a fair amount of results on the structure of these near-rings have been obtained since then, a satisfactory structure theory has yet to be developed for matrix d.g. near-rings. In this paper we give an alternate definition (in fact the dual definition) for matrix d.g. near-rings and develop a satisfactory structure theory for such d.g. near-rings.
