Suppose $R$ is a $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein $F$-finite and $F$-pure ring of prime characteristic $p>0$. We show that if $I\subseteq R$ is a compatible ideal (with all $p^{-e}$-linear maps) then there exists a module finite extension $R\to S$…
We observe that the class of left and right artinian left and right morphic rings agrees with the class of artinian principal ideal rings. For $R$ an artinian principal ideal ring and $G$ a group, we characterize when $RG$ is a principal…
Given a ring R, we define its right i-profile (resp. right p-profile) to be the collection of injectivity domains (resp. projectivity domains) of its right R-modules. We study the lattice theoretic properties of these profiles and consider…
In this paper we explore which part of the ideal lattice of a general ring is parametrized by its Cuntz semigroup $\mathrm{S}(R)$ and its ambient semigroup $\Lambda(R)$. We identify these classes of ideals as the quasipure ideals (a…
The regular graph of ideals of the commutative ring $R$, denoted by ${\Gamma_{reg}}(R)$, is a graph whose vertex set is the set of all non-trivial ideals of $R$ and two distinct vertices $I$ and $J$ are adjacent if and only if either $I$…
We will prove that if $G$ and $H$ are modules over a principal ideal domain $R$ such that the endomorphism rings $\mathrm{End}_R(R\oplus G)$ and $\mathrm{End}_R(R\oplus H)$ are isomorphic then $G\cong H$. Conversely, if $R$ is a Dedekind…
The Boolean ring $B$ of measurable subsets of the unit interval, modulo sets of measure zero, has proper radical ideals (e.g., $\{0\})$ that are closed under the natural metric, but has no prime ideals closed under that metric; hence closed…
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 $\aleph\_1$…
We call a right module $M$ (strongly) virtually regular if every (finitely generated) cyclic submodule is isomorphic to a direct summand. $M$ is said to be completely virtually regular if every submodule is virtually regular. In this paper,…
For $a\in R$, let $P_a$ denote the intersection of all minimal prime ideals of $R$ containing $a$. An ideal $I$ of a ring $R$ is called a $z^{\circ}$-ideal if $P_a\subseteq I$ for all $a\in I$. In this paper, we first investigate the class…
We show that, for a free abelian group $G$ and prime power $p^\nu$, every direct sum decomposition of the group $G/p^\nu G$ lifts to a direct sum decomposition of $G$. This is the key result we use to show that, if $R$ is a commutative von…
Let $\mathcal{P}$ be the class of rings for which every indecomposable right module is pure-projective or pure-injective. When $R$ is a Noetherian local commutative ring of maximal ideal $P$, it is proven that $R\in\mathcal{P}$ if and only…
For two ideals $I$ and $J$ of a noetherian ring, we characterize, in terms of the vanishing of Tor modules, when the associated graded ring of the sum $I+J$ is isomorphic to the tensor product of the associated graded ring of $I$ and the…
We study the relationships among existing results about representations of distributive semilattices by ideals in dimension groups, von Neumann regular rings, C*-algebras, and complemented modular lattices. We prove additional…
The upper ideal relation graph $\Gamma_{U}(R)$ of a commutative ring $R$ with unity is a simple undirected graph with the set of all non-unit elements of $R$ as a vertex set and two vertices $x$, $y$ are adjacent if and only if the…
This paper aims at the following results: \begin{enumerate} \item The class of all $*$-regular rings forms a variety. \item A subdirectly irreducible $*$-regular ring $R$ is faithfully representable (i.e. isomorphic to a subring of an…
A ring R is said to be VNL if for any a in R, either a or 1-a is (von Neumann) regular. The class of VNL rings lies properly between the exchange rings and (von Neumann) regular rings. We characterize abelian VNL rings. We also characterize…
We introduce a lattice structure as a generalization of meet-continuous lattices and quantales. We develop a point-free approach to these new lattices and apply these results to $R$-modules. In particular, we give the module counterpart of…
In this paper all rings are commutative. We prove some new results on flat epimorphisms of rings and pointwise localizations. Especially among them, it is proved that a ring $R$ is an absolutely flat (von-Neumann regular) ring if and only…
In this paper, we view the collection of ideals of a commutative principal ideal ring from two perspectives: one as an ordered semigroup I(R) and the other as a category I_R . It is shown that I(R) is a regular ordered semigroup whereas I_R…
