Abstract
Symbolic n-plithogenic algebraic structures are considered as symmetric generalizations of classical algebraic structures because they have n + 1 symmetric components. This paper is dedicated to generalizing symbolic 3-plithogenic rings by defining symbolic 4-plithogenic rings and 5-plithogenic rings; these new classes of n-symbolic plithogenic algebraic structures will be defined for the first time, and their algebraic substructures will be studied. AH structures are considered to be a sign of the presence of symmetry within these types of ring, as they consist of several parts that are similar in structure and symmetrical, and when combined with each other, they have a broader structure resembling the classical consonant structure. Many related substructures will be presented such as 4-plithogenic/5-plithogenic AH-ideals, 4-plithogenic/5-plithogenic AH-homomorphisms, and 4-plithogenic AHS-isomorphisms will be discussed. We will show our results in terms of theorems, with many clear numerical examples that explain the novelty of this work.
1. Introduction
One of the most attractive concepts for mathematicians is algebraic structures due to their analog properties and close relationship with other branches of mathematics, such as geometry and matrix theory [1,2].
During the last two years, researchers have become interested in studying symbolic n-plithogenic algebraic structures. These structures were supposed by Smarandache in [3] as novel generalizations of classical algebraic structures that have symmetric logical elements combined with algebraic elements. These algebraic structures have been constructed in a manner similar to their analogues using neutrosophic logic, where it is possible to clearly see that the method that was used to construct the neutrosophic structures [4,5], the split-complex numbers [6,7], and the weak fuzzy numbers [8] was used in the extension of algebraic rings by plithogenic sets.
For the case of n = 2, we find many studies that deal with corresponding plithogenic structures. In [9], Merkeci et al. defined the symbolic 2-plithogenic ring and studied its elementary properties and substructures, such as AH-ideals, AH-homomorphisms, and kernels. Laterally, their results were used by Taffach and other authors to define and study symbolic 2-plithogenic vector spaces [10], symbolic 2-plithogenic modules [11], and symbolic 2-plithogenic number theory [12]. A wide review of symbolic 2-plithogenic algebraic structures is provided in [13,14].
This is what prompted other researchers to generalize the previous results to the symbolic 3-plithogenic case. In [15], symbolic 3-plithogenic rings were handled for the first time by Albasheer, et al.; then, symbolic 3-plithogenic vector spaces, modules, and number theoretical concepts were defined and studied (see [16,17,18,19]).
This is what prompted us to follow up the previous scientific efforts and to study 4-plithogenic rings for the first time by providing basic definitions and proofs that describe the algebraic behavior of the elements of these rings. It is noteworthy that these new rings will be very useful in more extensive classes of algebraic modules and vector spaces, and also cryptographic algorithms.
We study AH-substructures because they have a symmetric structure, where the components of an AH-ideal are classical ideals, and the components of the AH-homomorphism are classical homomorphisms. These symmetric structures of AH-substructures gives us many interesting results about the algebraic class of symbolic 4-plithogenic/5-plithogenic rings.

3. Conclusions
In this paper, we have defined the 4-plithogenic rings and 5-plithogenic rings, the elements of which have many algebraic properties such as invertibility, nilpotency, and idempotency.
Also, we have shown some related substructures, such as 4-plithogenic AH-ideals, 4-plithogenic AH-kernels and homomorphisms, 5-plithogenic AH-ideals, 5-plithogenic AH-kernels, and homomorphisms.
As a future direction, we aim to use 4-plithogenic numbers and rings to generalize symbolic 3-plithogenic algebraic modules and equations.
