A ring R is called a left APP-ring if the left annihilator lR(Ra) is pure as a left ideal of R for every a ∈ R; R is called (left principally) quasi-Baer if the left annihilator of every (principal) left ideal of R is generated by an idempotent. Let R be a ring and M an ordered monoid. Assume that there is a monoid homomorphism φ: M ⟶ Aut(R). We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the skew monoid ring (induced by φ) to be left APP (left principally quasi-Baer, quasi-Baer, respectively).
