Boolean lifting property in quantales

In this paper, we study exchange rings and clean rings [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] (or otherwise). Analogues of a theorem of Camillo and Yu characterizing clean and strongly clean rings with [Formula: see text] are obtained for such rings (as well as for exchange rings) using the viewpoint of exchange equations introduced in a recent paper of the authors. We also study a new class of rings including von Neumann regular rings in which square roots of one (instead of idempotents) can be lifted modulo left ideals, and conjecture that such rings are exchange rings. This conjecture holds for commutative rings, and would hold for all rings if it holds for semiprimitive rings of characteristic [Formula: see text].

In the first two sections of this chapter, we focus our attention on two special classes of rings, namely, local rings and semilocal rings. By definition, a ring R is local if R/rad R is a division ring, and R is semilocal if R/rad R is a semisimple ring. Thus, local rings include all division rings, and semilocal rings include all left or right artinian rings. The basic properties of local and semilocal rings are developed, respectively, in §19 and §20. We shall see, for instance, that local rings are connected with the problem of the uniqueness of Krull-Schmidt decompositions, and that semilocal rings are connected with the problem of “cancellation” of modules.

On Algebraically Closed Models of Theories of Commutative Rings

Cartan maps, clean rings, and unique factorization

An element [Formula: see text] of a ring [Formula: see text] is called a quasi-idempotent if [Formula: see text] for some central unit [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text], or equivalently, [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a central unit and [Formula: see text] is an idempotent of [Formula: see text]. A ring [Formula: see text] is called a quasi-Boolean ring if every element of [Formula: see text] is quasi-idempotent. A ring [Formula: see text] is called (strongly) quasi-clean if each of its elements is a sum of a quasi-idempotent and a unit (that commute). These rings are shown to be a natural generalization of the clean rings and strongly clean rings. An extensive study of (strongly) quasi-clean rings is conducted. The abundant examples of (strongly) quasi-clean rings state that the class of (strongly) quasi-clean rings is very larger than the class of (strongly) clean rings. We prove that an indecomposable commutative semilocal ring is quasi-clean if and only if it is local or [Formula: see text] has no image isomorphic to [Formula: see text]; For an indecomposable commutative semilocal ring [Formula: see text] with at least two maximal ideals, [Formula: see text]([Formula: see text]) is strongly quasi-clean if and only if [Formula: see text] is quasi-clean if and only if [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] is a maximal ideal of [Formula: see text]. For a prime [Formula: see text] and a positive integer [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] is strongly quasi-clean if and only if [Formula: see text]. Some open questions are also posed.

We find a distributive (v, 0, 1)-semilattice S of size $\\aleph_1$ that is not isomorphic to the maximal semilattice quotient of any Riesz monoid endowed with an order-unit of finite stable rank. We thus obtain solutions to various open problems in ring theory and in lattice theory. In particular: - There is no exchange ring (thus, no von Neumann regular ring and no C*-algebra of real rank zero) with finite stable rank whose semilattice of finitely generated, idempotent-generated two-sided ideals is isomorphic to S. - There is no locally finite, modular lattice whose semilattice of finitely generated congruences is isomorphic to S. These results are established by constructing an infinitary statement, denoted here by URPsr, that holds in the maximal semilattice quotient of every Riesz monoid endowed with an order-unit of finite stable rank, but not in the semilattice S.

A commutative Noetherian local ring of finite global dimension is a regular local ring and the structure of such a ring is well described 1n many texts (see §1.9). It is perhaps surprising that very little seems to be known about the corresponding non-commutat1ve rings and it is our aim 1n this thesis to examine some of the ways in which the commutative theory can, and cannot be extended to a right Noetherian local ring of finite right global dimension. Chapter 1 contains basic definitions and, in Chapter 2, results are obtained on the projective and Injective dimensions of modules over right Noetherian local rings. Commutative regular local rings are domains and we begin Chapter 3 by considering the question of when a right Noetherian local ring R of finite right global dimension is a prime ring. An example of Stafford's shows that R is not necessarily prime; however, by examining the Nilpotent radical of R, we are able to extend results of Ramras [57] and Walker [75] and show that R is indeed prime when certain prime ideals are localisable. In Chapter 4 we consider the lattice of prime ideals of R when R is an AR-r1ng and provide theorems which generalise some of the basic results from the theory of commutative regular local rings. Section 4.3 contains examples which not only illustrate points arising in Chapters 3 and 4 but also show that some of the techniques which are mainstays of the commutative theory, fall dramatically in a non-commutat1ve setting. In Chapter 5, we generalise the concepts of regular sequences and Cohen Macaulay rings enabling us to prove, in §5.2 and chapter 6, that a right Noetherian local ring of finite right global dimension, which 1s integral over its centre, is a prime ring and exhibits many properties similar to those enjoyed by commutative regular local rings. Examples are provided which show that some alternative approaches are not applicable to the rings considered in these chapters. Regular local rings are Gorensteln rings and, as such, are the subject of an elegant structure theorem due to Bass [5]. In Chapter 7, we generalise his theorem to the situation of rings Integral over their centres. Each chapter begins with a summary of the results contained in that chapter.

The development of the theory of local rings has been greatly stimulated by the importance of the applications to algebraic geometry, but it is none the less true that this stimulus has produced a theory which, on aesthetic grounds, is somewhat unsatisfactory. In the first place, if a local ring Q arises in the ordinary way from a geometric problem, then Qwill have the same characteristic as its residue field. It is partly for this reason that our knowledge of equicharacteristic local rings is much more extensive than it is of those local rings which present the case of unequal characteristics. Again, in the geometric case, the integral closure of Q in its quotient field will be a finite Q-module. Here, once more, we have a special situation which it would be desirable to abandon from the point of view of a general abstract theory.

An almost prime submodule is a generalization of prime submodule introduced in 2011 by Khashan. This algebraic structure was brought from an algebraic structure in ring theory, prime ideal, and almost prime ideal. This paper aims to construct similar properties of prime ideal and almost prime ideal from ring theory to module theory. The problem that we want to eliminate is the multiplication operation, which is missing in module theory. We use the definition of module annihilator to bridge the gap. This article gives some properties of the prime submodule and almost prime submodule of CMS module over a principal ideal domain. A CSM module is a module that every cyclic submodule. One of the results is that the idempotent submodule is an almost prime submodule.

In ring and module theory, the cleanness property is well established. If any element of R can be expressed as the sum of an idempotent and a unit, then R is said to be a clean ring. Moreover, an R-module M is clean if the endomorphism ring of M is clean. We study the cleanness concept of coalgebra and comodules as a dualization of the cleanness in rings and modules. Let C be an R-coalgebra and M be a C-comodule. Since the endomorphism of C-comodule M is a ring, M is called a clean C-comodule if the ring of C-comodule endomorphisms of M is clean. In Brzezi´nski and Wisbauer (2003), the group ring R[G] is an R-coalgebra. Consider M as an R[G]-comodule. In this paper, we have investigated some sucient conditions to make M a clean R[G]-comodule, and have shown that every G-graded module M is a clean R[G]-comodule if M is a clean R-module.

A description of the subnormal subgroups of two-dimensional linear groups over certain (m,n)-full rings is given. Examples of (m,n)-full rings are semilocal rings and rings of dimension zero, in particular, von Neumann regular rings, under the assumption that every residue field of these rings contains more than m(n - 1) elements.

Strong cleanness of the [formula omitted] matrix ring over a general local ring

This work pretends to introduce students to the different properties present in algebraical structures such as the corresponding in Group and Ring Theory. By considering an operable set G={0,1}, we propose an analysis of such mathematical structures that can be constructed through logical operators Not, Or, And, Xor, Xnor, Nand and Nor.
