A Generalized Galois Ring (GGR) S is a finite nonassociative ring with identity of characteristic pn, for a prime number p, such that its top-factor S̄ = S/pS is a finite semifield. It is well known that if S is an associative Galois Ring (GR) then the set S* = S \ pS is a finite multiplicative abelian group. This group is cyclic if and only if S is either a finite field, or a residual integer ring_of odd characteristic or the ring ℤ4. A GGR is called top-associative if S̄ is a finite field. In this paper we study the conditions for a top-associative not associative GGR S to be cyclic. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2004.
