If an automorphism a on a ring R (with 1) leaves no non-trivial proper ideals of R invariant then we say that R is σ-simple. We construct examples of σ-simple rings and prove that finitely generated σ-simple algebras over fields are regular. A geometric interpretation of these concepts is also discussed.
