Abstract

The existence of maximal subrings in certain non-commutative rings, especially in rings which are integral over their centers, are investigated. We prove that if a ring TT is integral over its center, then either TT has a maximal subring or T/J(T)T/J(T) is a commutative Hilbert ring with Max(T)20|Max(T)|\leq 2^{\aleph_0} and T/J(T)220|T/J(T)|\leq 2^{2^{\aleph_0}}. We observe that if TT is an algebraic KK-algebra over a field KK, then either TT has a maximal subring or U(T)U(T) is integral over the prime subring of TT. If TT is a left Artinian ring which is integral over its center, then we prove that either TT has a maximal subring or TT is countable and is integral over its prime subring. We see that if TT is a left Noetherian ring which is integral over its center, then either TT has a maximal subring or T20|T|\leq 2^{\aleph_0}. We prove that if TT is a domain which is integral over its center CC and J(C)=0J(C)=0, then either TT has a maximal subring or TT is an integral domain. If TT is a reduced ring which is integral over its center and the center of TT is a Hilbert ring, then we show that either TT has a maximal subring or TT is commutative. We see that if a ring TT is integral over its center and RR is a subring of TT with J(T)RJ(R)J(T)\cap R\subseteq J(R), then either TT has a maximal subring or J(R)=J(T)RJ(R)=J(T)\cap R and U(R)=U(T)RU(R)=U(T)\cap R. Finally, we prove that if TT is direct product of an infinite family of rings {Ti}iI\{T_i\}_{i\in I} and each TiT_i is integral over its center, then TT has a maximal subrings.
