For every partially ordered sets I, having a finite cofinal subset, and every field K we build a unital, locally matricial and hence unit-regular K-algebra B(I) such that the lattice of all its ideals is order isomorphic to the lattice of…
An ordered semiring is a commutative semiring equipped with a compatible preorder. Ordered semirings generalise both distributive lattices and commutative rings, and provide a convenient framework to unify certain aspects of lattice theory…
We prove the following result: Theorem. Every algebraic distributive lattice D with at most $\aleph\_1$ compact elements is isomorphic to the ideal lattice of a von Neumann regular ring R. (By earlier results of the author, the $\aleph\_1$…
Goldie's Theorem implies that a semiprime left Goldie ring is embeddable into a semisimple Artinian ring. On the other hand, there are domains that are not embeddable into division rings. A criterion for a semiprime ring being embeddable…
Anti-elementarity is a strong way of ensuring that a class of structures , in a given first-order language, is not closed under elementary equivalence with respect to any infinitary language of the form L $\infty$$\lambda$. We prove that…
Drawing inspiration from Emmy Noether'set-theoretic foundations for algebra and Charles Ehresmann's topology without points, we adopt a new order-theoretic approach to ideal theory. For this we emphasize the order of divisibility in…
By any measure, semisimple modules form one of the most important classes of modules and play a distinguished role in the module theory and its applications. One of the most fundamental results in this area is the Wedderburn-Artin theorem.…
Let $\fa$ be an ideal of a commutative Noetherian ring $R$ with identity and let $M$ and $N$ be two finitely generated $R$-modules. Let $t$ be a positive integer. It is shown that $\Ass_R(H_{\fa}^t(M,N))$ is contained in the union of the…
Let $R$ be a semiartinian (von Neumann) regular ring with primitive factors artinian. The dimension sequence $\mathcal D _R$ is an invariant that captures the various skew-fields and dimensions occurring in the layers of the socle sequence…
We apply minimal weakly generating sets to study the existence of Add$(U_R)$-covers for a uniserial module $U_R$. If $U_R$ is a uniserial right module over a ring $R$, then $S:=$End$ (U_R)$ has at most two maximal (right, left, two-sided)…
Let $D$ be a principal ideal domain and $R(D) = \{\begin{pmatrix} a & b 0 & a \end{pmatrix} \mid a, b \in D\}$ be its self-idealization. It is known that $R(D)$ is a commutative noetherian ring with identity, and hence $R(D)$ is atomic…
Based on an analogue for systems of partial isomorphisms between lower sections in a complemented modular lattice we prove that principal right ideals $aR \cong bR$ in a (von Neumann) regular ring $R$ are perspective if $aR \cap bR$ is of…
Let $A$ be a semigroup whose only invertible element is 0. For an $A$-homogeneous ideal we discuss the notions of simple $i$-syzygies and simple minimal free resolutions of $R/I$. When $I$ is a lattice ideal, the simple 0-syzygies of $R/I$…
The rank of a ring $R$ is the supremum of minimal cardinalities of generating sets of $I$, among all ideals $I$ in $R$. In this paper, we obtain a characterization of Noetherian rings $R$ whose rank is not equal to the supremum of ranks of…
Let $k$ be a number field and $B$ be a central simple algebra over $k$ of dimension $p^2$ where $p$ is prime. In the case that $p=2$ we assume that $B$ is not totally definite. In this paper we study sets of pairwise nonisomorphic maximal…
It was conjectured at the end of the book "Representation theory of Artin algebras" by M. Auslander, I. Reiten and S. Smalo that an Artin algebra with the property that its finitely generated indecomposable modules are up to isomorphism…
In this paper, we study rings having the property that every right ideal is automorphism-invariant. Such rings are called right $a$-rings. It is shown that (1) a right $a$-ring is a direct sum of a square-full semisimple artinian ring and a…
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring, $\mathfrak{G}$ a Gabriel topology on $R$, and $\mathfrak{G}^\ast$ the set of all maximal elements of Spec($R)\backslash \mathfrak{G}$. We determine all simple $\mathfrak{G}$-torsion free…
The set of idempotents of a regular semigroup is given an abstract characterization as a regular biordered set in [2], and in [4] it is shown how a biordered set can be associated with a complemented modular lattice. Von Neumann has shown…
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…
