On quotients of generalized Euclidean group rings

Commutative Algebra 2016-11-08 v3 Rings and Algebras

Abstract

Let R=Z[C]R = Z[C] be the integral group ring of a finite cyclic group CC. Dennis and al. proved that RR is a generalized Euclidean ring in the sense of P. M. Cohn, i.e., SLn(R)SL_n(R) is generated by the elementary matrices for all nn. We prove that every proper quotient of RR is also a generalized Euclidean ring.
