Commutative rings with $n$-$1$-absorbing prime factorization

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with $1\mathrm{\ne }0$ and $n$ be a fixed positive integer. A proper ideal $I$ of $R$ is said to be an $n\mathit{\text{-OA}}\mathit{\text{ideal}}$ if whenever $a_1{a}_2\cdots a_{n+1}\in I$ for some nonunits $a_1,a_2,\dots ,a_{n+1}\in R$, then $a_1{a}_2\cdots a_n\in I$ or $a_{n+1}\in I$. A commutative ring $R$ is said to be an $n\mathit{\text{-OAF}}\mathit{\text{ring}}$ if every proper ideal $I$ of $R$ is a product of finitely many $n$-OA ideals. In fact, $1$-OAF rings and $2$-OAF $2$-OAF-rings are exactly the general ZPI rings and OAF rings, respectively. In addition to giving various properties of $n$-OAF rings, we give a characterization of Noetherian von Neumann regular rings in terms of our new concept. Furthermore, we investigate the $n$-OAF property of some extension of rings such as the polynomial ring $R[X]$, the formal power series ring $R[[X]]$, the ring of $A+XB[X]$, and the trivial extension $R=A\propto E$ of an $A$-module $E$.
