We characterize which complete local (Noetherian) rings T containing the rationals are the completion of a countable excellent local ring S. We also discuss the possibilities for the map from the minimal prime ideals of T to the minimal…
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…
An ideal I of a commutative ring R is said to be irreducible if it cannot be written as the intersection of two larger ideals. A proper ideal I of a ring R is said to be strongly irreducible if for each ideals J, K of R, J\cap K\subseteq I…
We investigate ideal-semisimple and congruence-semisimple semirings. We give several new characterizations of such semirings using e-projective and e-injective semimodules. We extend several characterizations of semisimple rings to (not…
Absolute integral closures of general commutative unital rings are explored. All rings admit absolute integral closures, but in general they are not unique. Among the reduced rings with finitely many minimal prime ideals, finite products of…
The set of minimal primes of a ring is a very important set as far the spectrum of a ring is concerned as every prime contains a minimal prime. So, knowing the minimal primes is the first (important and difficult) step in describing the…
Let $R$ be a ring (not necessary commutative) with non-zero identity. The unit graph of $R$, denoted by $G(R)$, is a graph with elements of $R$ as its vertices and two distinct vertices $a$ and $b$ are adjacent if and only if $a+b$ is a…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring and ${\Bbb{A}}(R)$ be the set of ideals with non-zero annihilators. The annihilating-ideal graph of $R$ is defined as the graph ${\Bbb{AG}}(R)$ with the vertex set ${\Bbb{A}}(R)^*={\Bbb{A}}\setminus\{(0)\}$ and…
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 $L$ be a restricted Lie algebra over a field of positive characteristic. We prove that the restricted enveloping algebra of $L$ is a principal ideal ring if and only if $L$ is an extension of a finite-dimensional torus by a cyclic…
In this paper, we study Noetherian local rings $R$ having a finite number of trace ideals. We proved that such rings are of dimension at most two. Furthermore, if the integral closure of $R/H$, where $H$ is the zeroth local cohomology, is…
We give an elementary proof prove of the preservation of the Noetherian condition for commutative rings with unity $R$ having at least one finitely generated ideal $I$ such that the quotient ring is again finitely generated, and $R$ is…
The aim of this paper is to analize the structure of BL-algebras using commutative rings. From computational considerations, we are very interested in the finite case. We present new ways to generate finite BL-algebras using commutative…
In this note, we define and investigate ideal covering numbers of associative rings (not assumed to be commutative or unital): three invariants defined as the minimal number of proper left, right, or two-sided ideals whose union equals the…
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…
In this paper we study (non-commutative) rings $R$ over which every finitely generated left module is a direct sum of cyclic modules (called left FGC-rings). The commutative case was a well-known problem studied and solved in 1970s by…
Recognizing when a ring is a complete matrix ring is of significant importance in algebra. It is well-known folklore that a ring $R$ is a complete $n\times n$ matrix ring, so $R\cong M_{n}(S)$ for some ring $S$, if and only if it contains a…
In this paper, among other results, there are described (complete) simple - simultaneously ideal- and congruence-simple - endomorphism semirings of (complete) idempotent commutative monoids; it is shown that the concepts of simpleness,…
Let I be a finitely supported complete m-primary ideal of a regular local ring (R, m). A theorem of Lipman implies that I has a unique factorization as a *-product of special *-simple complete ideals with possibly negative exponents for…
In this article, we generalize the well-known result that ideals of Noetherian polynomial rings have only finitely many initial ideals to the situation of ascending ideal chains in non-Noetherian polynomial rings. More precisely, we study…
