Ring theory studies the structure of rings; their representations, or, in different language, modules; special classes of rings (group rings, division rings, universal enveloping algebras); related structures like rngs; as well as an array of properties that prove to be of interest both within the theory itself and for its applications, such as ...
In algebra, a commutative Noetherian ring A is said to have the approximation property with respect to an ideal I if each finite system of polynomial equations with coefficients in A has a solution in A if and only if it has a solution in the I-adic completion of A. [1] [2] The notion of the approximation property is due to Michael Artin.
In mathematics, more specifically non-commutative ring theory, modern algebra, and module theory, the Jacobson density theorem is a theorem concerning simple modules over a ring R. [1] The theorem can be applied to show that any primitive ring can be viewed as a "dense" subring of the ring of linear transformations of a vector space.
A ring is a set R equipped with two binary operations [a] + (addition) and ⋅ (multiplication) satisfying the following three sets of axioms, called the ring axioms: [1] [2] [3] R is an abelian group under addition, meaning that: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c) for all a, b, c in R (that is, + is associative). a + b = b + a for all a, b in R (that ...
A subdomain of a division ring which is not right or left Ore: If F is any field, and = , is the free monoid on two symbols x and y, then the monoid ring [] does not satisfy any Ore condition, but it is a free ideal ring and thus indeed a subring of a division ring, by (Cohn 1995, Cor 4.5.9).
In mathematics, more specifically ring theory, a left, right or two-sided ideal of a ring is said to be a nil ideal if each of its elements is nilpotent. [1] [2]The nilradical of a commutative ring is an example of a nil ideal; in fact, it is the ideal of the ring maximal with respect to the property of being nil.
In mathematics, specifically ring theory, a left primitive ideal is the annihilator of a (nonzero) simple left module. A right primitive ideal is defined similarly. Left and right primitive ideals are always two-sided ideals. Primitive ideals are prime. The quotient of a ring by a left primitive ideal is a left primitive ring.
The center of a commutative ring R is R itself. The center of a skew-field is a field. The center of the (full) matrix ring with entries in a commutative ring R consists of R-scalar multiples of the identity matrix. [1] Let F be a field extension of a field k, and R an algebra over k. Then Z(R ⊗ k F) = Z(R) ⊗ k F.
