Abstract
A ring with involution * is called *-clean if each of its elements is the sum of a unit and a projection. Clearly a *-clean ring is clean. Vaš asked whether there exists a clean ring with involution * that is not *-clean. In a recent paper, Gao, Chen and the first author investigated when a group ring RG with classical involution * is *-clean and obtained necessary and sufficient conditions for RG to be *-clean, where R is a commutative local ring and G is one of C 3 , C 4 , S 3 and Q 8 . As a consequence, the authors provided many examples of group rings which are clean, but not *-clean. In this paper, we continue this investigation and we give a complete characterization of when the group algebra 𝔽C p is *-clean, where 𝔽 is a field and C p is the cyclic group of prime order p. Our main result is related closely to the irreducible factorization of a pth cyclotomic polynomial over the field 𝔽. Among other results we also obtain a complete characterization of when RC n (3 ≤ n ≤ 6) is *-clean where R is a commutative local ring.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
