Let $(R, S,_R\negthinspace M_S,_S\negthinspace N_R, f, g)$ be a general Morita context, and let $T=[{cc} R &_RM_S_SN_R & S]$ be the ring associated with this context. Similarly, let $T'=[{cc} R' & M' N' & S']$ be another Morita context…

We study Morita equivalence and Morita duality for rings with local units. We extend the Auslander's results on the theory of Morita equivalence and the Azumaya-Morita duality theorem to rings with local units. As a consequence, we give a…

In this article we investigate when a homogeneous ideal in a graded ring is normal, that is, when all positive powers of the ideal are integrally closed. We are particularly interested in homogeneous ideals in an N-graded ring generated by…

This is a survey paper, based on lectures given at the Workshop on "Structured ring spectra and their applications" which took place January 21-25, 2002, at the University of Glasgow. The term `Morita theory' is usually used for results…

We introduce the notion of bi-monoid in general monoidal category generalizing by this the notion of bialgebra. In the case of bimodules over a noncommutative algebra, we obtain a compatibility condition between ring and coring whenever…

We consider the following problem: Under what assumptions do one or more of the following are equivalent for a ring $R$: (A) $R$ is Morita equivalent to a ring with involution, (B) $R$ is Morita equivalent to a ring with an…

In this paper, we investigate the question of when a $\phi$-ring is $\phi$-Pr\"ufer using two types of techniques: first, by analysing the lattice structure of the nonnil ideals of $\phi$-rings; and secondly, by considering content ideal…

In this paper we continue our study of modules satisfying the prime radical condition ($\mathbb{P}$-radical modules), that was introduced in Part I (see \cite{BS}). Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. The purpose of this paper is…

Let $G$ be a group with identity element $e$, and suppose that $S$ is an associative $G$-graded ring that is not necessarily unital. In the case where $G$ is an ordered group, we show that a graded ideal is prime if and only if it is graded…

We show that a not necessarily closed ideal in a C*-algebra is semiprime if and only if it is idempotent, if and only if it is closed under square roots of positive elements. Among other things, it follows that prime and semiprime ideals in…

Recently, we have endowed various categories of groups with topologies. The purpose of this paper is to introduce on these categories others topologies which are statistically more suitable to study well-known problems in groups theory. We…

Continuing the study of the structure of semirings, we turn to the spectrum of prime congruences. Joo and Mincheva developed an elegant theory in the special case of idempotent semirings, which is generalized here to ``semiring pairs,''…

We study presheaves on semicategories enriched in a quantaloid: this gives rise to the notion of regular presheaf. A semicategory is regular when its representable presheaves are regular, and its regular presheaves then constitute an…

The aim of this series of papers is to study $z$-ideals of semirings. In this article, we introduce some distinguished classes of $z$-ideals of semirings, which include $z$-prime, $z$-semiprime, $z$-irreducible, and $z$-strongly irreducible…

We first introduce and study the notion of semi-regular flat modules, and then show that a ring $R$ is a strong \Prufer\ ring if and only if every submodule of a semi-regular flat $R$-module is semi-regular flat, if and only if every ideal…

The aim of these notes is to study some of the structural aspects of the ring of arithmetical functions. We prove that this ring is neither Noetherian nor Artinian. Furthermore, we construct various types of prime ideals. We also give an…

In this paper we investigate the question of normality for special monomial ideals in a polynomial ring over a field. We first include some expository sections that give the basics on the integral closure of a ideal, the Rees algebra on an…

For a commutative unital ring $R$ with fixed ideals $I$ and $J$, we introduce and study $I$-prime $R$-modules and $(I, J)$-prime $R$-modules together with their duals $I$-coprime $R$-modules and $(I,J)$-coprime $R$-modules respectively. We…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of pseudo-primary elements and pseudo-classical primary elements in an $L$-module $M$ and obtain their characterizations. The aim of the paper is to show $rad(N)\in M$, the radical of $N\in M$ is prime…

Rings form a bicategory [Rings], with classes of bimodules as horizontal arrows, and bimodule maps as vertical arrows. The notion of Morita equivalence for rings can be translated in terms of bicategories in the following way. Two rings are…
