The core inverse for a complex matrix was introduced by O. M. Baksalary and G. Trenkler. D. S. Rakíc, N.Č. Diňcíc and D. S. Djordjevíc generalized the core inverse of a complex matrix to the case of an element in a ring. They also proved that the core inverse of an element in a ring can be characterized by five equations and every core invertible element is group invertible. It is natural to ask when a group invertible element is core invertible. In this paper, we will answer this question. Let R be a ring with involution, we will use three equations to characterize the core inverse of an element. That is, let a, b ∈ R. Then a ∈ R# with a# = b if and only if (ab)∗ = ab, ba2= a, and ab2= b. Finally, we investigate the additive property of two core invertible elements. Moreover, the formulae of the sum of two core invertible elements are presented.
