Reduced ring

Reduced ring

In ring theory, a ring R is said to be reduced if it has no non-zero nilpotent elements.

This condition is weaker than having no zero divisors, hence every domain is a reduced ring, but not every reduced ring is a domain. For example, Z ["x", "y"] /("xy") is a reduced ring that is not a domain.
