We show that a unital ring is generated by its commutators as an ideal if and only if there exists a natural number $N$ such that every element is a sum of $N$ products of pairs of commutators. We show that one can take $N \leq 2$ for…

Let D be a division algebra with center F. A maximal subfield of D is defined to be a field K such that CD(K) = K; that is, K is its own centralizer in D. A maximal subfield K is said to be self-invariant if it normalises by itself, i.e.…

The notion of ring endomorphisms having large images is introduced. Among others, injectivity and surjectivity of such endomorphisms are studied. It is proved, in particular, that an endomorphism S of a prime one-sided noetherian ring R is…

Let $F$ be a field. We show that certain subrings contained between the polynomial ring $F[X] = F[X_1, ..., X_n]$ and the power series ring $F[X][[Y]] = F[X_1, ..., X_n][[Y]]$ have Weierstrass Factorization, which allows us to deduce both…

For several semirings S, two weighted finite automata with multiplicities in S are equivalent if and only if they can be connected by a chain of simulations. Such a semiring S is called "proper". It is known that the Boolean semiring, the…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $S \subseteq R$ be a multiplicative set. An ideal $Q$ of $R$ (disjoint from $S$) is said to be $S$-primary if there exists an $s\in S$ such that for all $x,y\in R$ with $xy\in Q$, we have…

We say that a ring is strongly (resp. weakly) left Jacobson if every semiprime (resp. prime) left ideal is an intersection of maximal left ideals. There exist Jacobson rings that are not weakly left Jacobson, e.g. the Weyl algebra. Our main…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $S$ a multiplicative subset of $R$. An $R$-module $M$ is said to be a uniformly $S$-Artinian ($u$-$S$-Artinian for abbreviation) module if there is $s\in S$ such that any descending chain of…

Invertibility is important in ring theory because it enables division and facilitates solving equations. Moreover, (nonassociative) rings can be endowed with an extra ''structure'' such as order and topology allowing more richness in the…

A well-known result of K\"{o}the and Cohen-Kaplansky states that a commutative ring $R$ has the property that every $R$-module is a direct sum of cyclic modules if and only if $R$ is an Artinian principal ideal ring. This motivated us to…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with $1\neq 0$ and $n$ be a fixed positive integer. A proper ideal $I$ of $R$ is said to be an \textit{$n$-OA ideal} if whenever $a_1a_2\cdots a_{n+1}\in I$ for some nonunits $a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_{n+1}\in R$, then…

In this paper, sufficient conditions for finitely generated modules over a commutative noetherian ring to be projective are given in terms of vanishing of Ext modules. One of the main results of this paper asserts that the Auslander--Reiten…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. The ring $R\times R$ can be viewed as an extension of $R$ via the diagonal map $\Delta: R \hookrightarrow R\times R$, given by $\Delta(r) = (r, r)$ for all $r\in R$. It is shown that, for any $a,…

If $H$ is a monoid and $a=u_1 \cdots u_k \in H$ with atoms (irreducible elements) $u_1, \ldots, u_k$, then $k$ is a length of $a$, the set of lengths of $a$ is denoted by $\mathsf L(a)$, and $\mathcal L(H)=\{\,\mathsf L (a) \mid a \in H…

Let $A$ be a right noetherian algebra over a field $k$. If the base field extension $A \otimes_k K$ remains right noetherian for all extension fields $K$ of $k$, then $A$ is called stably right noetherian over $k$. We develop an inductive…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. Under various hypotheses, it is proved that the center of $\mbox{End}_R(M)$ coincides with the endomorphism ring of the trace ideal of $M$. These results are…

We study different types of localisations of a commutative noetherian ring. More precisely, we provide criteria to decide: (a) if a given flat ring epimorphism is a universal localisation in the sense of Cohn and Schofield; and (b) when…

For a cancellative semigroup S and a field F, it is proved that the semigroup algebra FS is centrally essential if and only if the group of fractions $G_S$ of the semigroup $S$ exists and the group algebra $FG_S$ of $G_S$ is centrally…

In commutative ring theory, there is a theorem of Cohen which states that if in a commutative ring all prime ideals are finitely generated then every ideal is finitely generated. However, it is known that having only maximal ideals finitely…
