Commutative semirings with divisible additive semigroup are studied. We show that an additively divisible commutative semiring is idempotent, provided that it is finitely generated and torsion. In case that a one-generated additively…
We prove that a commutative parasemifield S is additively idempotent provided that it is finitely generated as a semiring. Consequently, every proper commutative semifield T that is finitely generated as a semiring is either additively…
A subset $S$ of an integral domain $R$ is called a semidomain if the pairs $(S,+)$ and $(S, \cdot)$ are semigroups with identities; additionally, we say that $S$ is additively reduced provided that $S$ contains no additive inverses. Given…
Let $S$ be a nonnegative semiring of the real line, called here a positive semiring. We study factorizations in both the additive monoid $(S,+)$ and the multiplicative monoid $(S\setminus\{0\}, \cdot)$. In particular, we investigate when,…
Given a multiplicative subset $S$ in a commutative ring $R$, we consider $S$-weakly cotorsion and $S$-strongly flat $R$-modules, and show that all $R$-modules have $S$-strongly flat covers if and only if all flat $R$-modules are…
We prove that a semiring multiplicatively generated by its idempotents is commutative and Boolean, if every idempotent in the semiring has an orthogonal complement. We prove that a semiring additively generated by its idempotents is…
A Puiseux monoid is an additive submonoid of the nonnegative cone of the rational numbers. We say that a Puiseux monoid $M$ is exponential provided that there exist a positive rational $r$ and a set $S$ consisting of nonnegative integers,…
We study the Finite Basis Problem for finite additively idempotent semirings whose multiplicative reducts are inverse semigroups. In particular, we show that each additively idempotent semiring whose multiplicative reduct is a nontrivial…
We present some general results implying nonfinite axiomatisability of many additively idempotent semirings with finitely based semigroup reducts. The smallest is a $3$-element commutative example, which we show also has \texttt{NP}-hard…
We find necessary and sufficient conditions for the finite separability of finitely generated commutative rings. Namely, we prove that every such ring is a finite extension of its torsion ideal $I_k$ where $k$ is square-free, and $I_k$ is a…
Let $S$ be a semigroup (written multiplicatively). Endowed with the operation of setwise multiplication induced by $S$ on its parts, the non-empty subsets of $S$ form themselves a semigroup, denoted by $\mathcal P(S)$. Accordingly, we say…
Let $\mathcal P(S)$ be the semigroup obtained by equipping the family of all non-empty subsets of a (multiplicatively written) semigroup $S$ with the operation of setwise multiplication induced by $S$ itself. We call a subsemigroup $P$ of…
A semiring generalises the notion of a ring, replacing the additive abelian group structure with that of a commutative monoid. In this paper, we study a notion positioned between a ring and a semiring -- a semiring whose additive monoid is…
We first establish a sufficient condition for an additively idempotent semiring to be nonfinitely based. As applications, we exhibit several examples of additively idempotent semirings satisfying this condition, including a $4$-element…
Let $T$ be a subset of a ring $A$, and let $M$ be an $A$-module. We study the additive subgroups $F$ of $M$ such that, for all $x \in M$, if $tx \in F$ for some $t \in T$, then $x \in F$. We call any such subset $F$ of $M$ a $T$-factroid of…
We study ideal-simple commutative semirings and summarize the results giving their classification, in particular when they are finitely generated. In the principal case of (para)semifields, we then consider their minimal number of…
Let $S$ be an additively idempotent semiring and $\mathbf{M}_n(S)$ be the semiring of all $n\times n$ matrices over $S$. We characterize the conditions of when the semiring $\mathbf{M}_n(S)$ is congruence-simple provided that the semiring…
We consider the class of all commutative reduced rings for which there exists a finite subset T of A such that all projections on quotients by prime ideals of A are surjective when restricted to T. A complete structure theorem is given for…
Since for the classification of finite (congruence-)simple semirings it remains to classify the additively idempotent semirings, we progress on the characterization of finite simple additively idempotent semirings as semirings of…
Exponential Puiseux semirings are additive submonoids of $\qq_{\geq 0}$ generated by almost all of the nonnegative powers of a positive rational number, and they are natural generalizations of rational cyclic semirings. In this paper, we…
