Abstract
Let Rbe a ring with second singular right ideal and second singular left ideal . Motivated by a result in Zhou (Zhou, Y. (2002). Rings in which certain right ideals are direct summands of annihilators. J. Australian Math. Soc., Ser. A73:335–346 that Ris a two-sided pseudo-Frobenius ring iff Ris a two-sided Kasch ring such that both () R and R () are injective, we consider when a right (or two-sided) Kasch ring Rsuch that () R is injective is right pseudo- Frobenius. Our study leads to a number of new characterizations of one-sided (or two-sided) pseudo-Frobenius rings. Some questions on pseudo-Frobenius rings are listed at the end of the paper.
