Definition

A unital subring of a commutative unital ring is termed radically closed if for every such that there exists for which , we have .

A radical ideal is an ideal with the analogous property: if is in the ideal, so is . The radical of an ideal is the smallest ideal containing it that is a radical ideal. It turns out that for any ideal, every element in its radical has the property that some power of it is in the ring. For full proof, refer: Equivalence of definitions of radical of an ideal

Thus, if an ideal is contained in a radically closed subring, the radical of that ideal is also contained in that subring.
