Principally Quasi-Baer Skew Power Series Rings

Let α be an endomorphism of R which is not assumed to be surjective and R be α-compatible. It is shown that the skew power series ring R[[x; α]] is right p.q.-Baer if and only if the skew Laurent series ring R[[x, x ^?1; α]] is right p.q.-Baer if and only if R is right p.q.-Baer and every countable subset of right semicentral idempotents has a generalized countable join. Examples to illustrate and delimit the theory are provided.     

On Von Neumann Regular Rings of Skew Generalized Power Series

In this paper we introduce a construction called the skew generalized power series ring R[[S, ω]] with coefficients in a ring R and exponents in a strictly ordered monoid S which extends Ribenboim's construction of generalized power series rings. In the case when S is totally ordered or commutative aperiodic, and ω(s) is constant on idempotents for some s ∈ S?{1}, we give sufficient and necessary conditions on R and S such that the ring R[[S, ω]] is von Neumann regular, and we show that the von Neumann regularity of the ring R[[S, ω]] is equivalent to its semisimplicity. We also give a characterization of the strong regularity of the ring R[[S, ω]].     

Baer and Quasi-Baer Properties of Skew Generalized Power Series Rings

Let R be a ring, (S, ≤) a strictly ordered monoid and ω: S → End(R) a monoid homomorphism. The skew generalized power series ring R[[S, ω]] is a common generalization of (skew) polynomial rings, (skew) power series rings, (skew) Laurent polynomial rings, (skew) group rings, and Mal'cev–Neumann Laurent series rings. In this article, we study relations between the (quasi-) Baer, principally quasi-Baer and principally projective properties of a ring R, and its skew generalized power series extension R[[S, ω]]. As particular cases of our general results, we obtain new theorems on (skew) group rings, Mal'cev–Neumann Laurent series rings, and the ring of generalized power series.     

Principal quasi-Baerness of formal power series rings

Let R be a ring. We consider left （or right） principal quasi-Baerness of the left skew formal power series ring R[[x;α]] over R where a is a ring automorphism of R. We give a necessary and sufficient condition under which the ring R[[x; α]] is left （or right） principally quasi-Baer. As an application we show that R[[x]] is left principally quasi-Baer if and only if R is left principally quasi- Baer and the left annihilator of the left ideal generated by any countable family of idempotents in R is generated by an idempotent.

设R是环,并且R的左半中心幂等元都是中心幂等元, α是R的一个弱刚性自同态. 本文证明了斜幂级数环R[[x,α]]是右主拟Baer环当且仅当R是右主拟Baer环,并且R的任意可数幂等元集在I(R)中有广义交,其中I(R)是R的幂等元集.     

Principally Quasi-Baer Skew Power Series Modules

A module M _R is called principally quasi-Baer (or simply p.q.-Baer) if the annihilator of every cyclic submodule of M _R is generated by an idempotent, as a right ideal. Let α be an automorphism of R and M _R be an α-compatible module and every countable subset of right semicentral idempotents in R has a generalized countable join or R satisfies the ACC on left annihilator ideals. It is shown that M _R is p.q.-Baer if and only if M[[x]] _{R[[x; α]]} is p.q.-Baer if and only if M[[x, x ^?1]] _{R[[x, x ^?1; α]]} is p.q.-Baer. As a consequence, we unify and extend nontrivially many of the previously known results such as [11 Hashemi , E. ( 2008 ). A note on p.q.-Baer modules . New York J. Math. 14 : 403 – 410 . [Google Scholar], 15 Huang , F. K. ( 2008 ). A note on extensions of principally quasi-Baer rings . Taiwan. J. Math. 45 ( 4 ): 469 – 481 . [Google Scholar], 20 Liu , Z.

On inverse skew Laurent series extensions of weakly rigid rings

Let R be a ring equipped with an automorphism α and an α-derivation δ. We studied on the relationship between the quasi Baerness and (α, δ)-quasi Baerness of a ring R and these of the inverse skew Laurent series ring R((x^?1; α, δ)), in case R is an (α, δ)-weakly rigid ring. Also we proved that for a semicommutative (α, δ)-weakly rigid ring R, R is Baer if and only if so is R((x^?1; α, δ)). Moreover for an (α, δ)-weakly rigid ring R, it is shown that the inverse skew Laurent series ring R((x^?1; α, δ)) is left p.q.-Baer if and only if R is left p.q.-Baer and every countable subset of left semicentral idempotents of R has a generalized countable join in R.     

Semiprimeness,quasi-Baerness and prime radical of skew generalized power series rings

Let R be a ring, (S,≤) a strictly ordered monoid and ω:S→End(R) a monoid homomorphism. The skew generalized power series ring R[[S,ω]] is a common generalization of (skew) polynomial rings, (skew) power series rings, (skew) Laurent polynomial rings, (skew) group rings, and Mal’cev-Neumann Laurent series rings. In this paper we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the skew generalized power series ring R[[S,ω]] to be a semiprime, prime, quasi-Baer, or Baer ring. Furthermore, we study the prime radical of a skew generalized power series ring R[[S,ω]]. Our results extend and unify many existing results. In particular, we obtain new theorems on (skew) group rings, Mal’cev-Neumann Laurent series rings and the ring of generalized power series.     

Automorphism Group of q-Quantum Torus Lie Algebra with q a Root of Unity*

Let α be an automorphism of a ring R. We study the skew Armendariz of Laurent series type rings (α-LA rings), as a generalization of the standard Armendariz condition from polynomials to skew Laurent series. We study on the relationship between the Baerness and p.p. property of a ring R and these of the skew Laurent series ring R[[x, x ^?1; α]], in case R is an α-LA ring. Moreover, we prove that for an α-weakly rigid ring R, R[[x, x ^?1; α]] is a left p.q.-Baer ring if and only if R is left p.q.-Baer and every countable subset of S _?(R) has a generalized countable join in R. Various types of examples of α-LA rings are provided.     

PP-Rings of Generalized Power Series

Abstract As a generalization of power series rings, Ribenboim introduced the notion of the rings of generalized power series. Let R be a commutative ring, and (S, ≤) a strictly totally ordered monoid. We prove that (1) the ring [[R ^S,≤]] of generalized power series is a PP-ring if and only if R is a PP-ring and every S-indexed subset C of B(R) (the set of all idempotents of R) has a least upper bound in B(R) and (2) if (S, ≤) also satisfies the condition that 0 ≤s for any s∈S, then the ring [[R ^S,≤ ]] is weakly PP if and only if R is weakly PP.

On a class of semicommutative modules

Let R be a ring with identity, M a right R-module and S = End _R (M). In this note, we introduce S-semicommutative, S-Baer, S-q.-Baer and S-p.q.-Baer modules. We study the relations between these classes of modules. Also we prove if M is an S-semicommutative module, then M is an S-p.q.-Baer module if and only if M[x] is an S[x]-p.q.-Baer module, M is an S-Baer module if and only if M[x] is an S[x]-Baer module, M is an S-q.-Baer module if and only if M[x] is an S[x]-q.-Baer module.     

Generalized APP-Rings

We say a ring R is (centrally) generalized left annihilator of principal ideal is pure (APP) if the left annihilator ? _R (Ra) ⁿ is (centrally) right s-unital for every element a ∈ R and some positive integer n. The class of generalized left APP-rings includes generalized left (principally) quasi-Baer rings and left APP-rings (and hence left p.q.-Baer rings, right p.q.-Baer rings, and right PP-rings). The class of centrally generalized left APP-rings is closed under finite direct products, full matrix rings, and Morita invariance. The behavior of the (centrally) generalized left APP condition is investigated with respect to various constructions and extensions, and it is used to generalize many results on generalized PP-rings with IFP and semiprime left APP-rings. Moreover, we extend a theorem of Kist for commutative PP rings to centrally generalized left APP rings for which every prime ideal contains a unique minimal prime ideal without using topological arguments. Furthermore, we give a complete characterization of a considerably large family of centrally generalized left APP rings which have a sheaf representation.     

罗朗级数环的主拟Baer性

称环 R为右主拟 Baer环（简称为右p·q.Baer环）,如果 R的任意主右理想的右零化子可由幂等元生成.本文证明了,若环 R满足条件Sl（R）（?）C（R）,则罗朗级数环R[[x,x-1]]是右p.q.Baer环当且仅当R是右p.q.Baer环且R的任意可数多个幂等元在I（R）中有广义join.同时还证明了,R是右p.q.Baer环当且仅当R[x,x-1]是右P.q.Baer环.     

On the integral dependence of power series rings

We prove the following results: (1) Let R ? S be two commutative rings. Suppose that dim R = 0.If f(X) ∈ S[[X]]is integral over R[[X]], then every coefficient of f(X) is integral over R. (2) Let dim R ≥ 1. There exists a ring S containing R and a power series f(X) ∈ S[[X]]such that f(X) is integral over R[[X]], but not all coefficients of f(X) are integral over R. (3) Let k ? R. Suppose that R is algebraic over the field k. Then R[[X]] is integral over k[[X]] if and only if the nilradical of R is nilpotent and the separable degree and the inseparable exponent of R _red over k are finite.     

Quasi-duality for the rings of generalized power series *

Let A, B be associative rings with identity, and (S, ≤) a strictly totally ordered commutative monoid which is also artinian. For any bimodule _AM_B , we construct a bimodule _A[[S]]M[S]_B[[S]] and prove that _AM_B defines a quasi-duality if and only if the bimodule _A[[S]]M[S]_B[[S]] defines a quasi-duality. As a corollary, it is shown that if a ring A has a quasi-duality then the ring A[[S]] of generalized power series over A has a quasi-duality.     

Left APP differential polynomial rings

A ring R is called a left APP-ring if for each element a∈R, the left annihilator l_R(Ra) is right s-unital as an ideal of R or equivalently R∕l_R(Ra) is flat as a left R-module. In this paper, we show that for a ring R and derivation δ of R, R is left APP if and only if R is δ-weakly rigid and the differential polynomial ring R[x;δ] is left APP. As a consequence, we see that if R is a left APP-ring, then the n^th Weyl algebra over R is left APP. Also we define δ-left APP (resp. p.q.-Baer) rings and we show that R is left APP (resp. p.q.-Baer) if and only if for each derivation δ of R, R is δ-weakly rigid and δ-left APP (resp. p.q.-Baer). Finally we prove that R[x;δ] is left APP (resp. p.q.-Baer) if and only if R is δ-left APP (resp. p.q.-Baer).     

On Skew Inverse Laurent-Serieswise Armendariz Rings

We study the skew inverse Laurent-serieswise Armendariz (or simply, SIL-Armendariz) condition on R, a generalization of the standard Armendariz condition from polynomials to skew inverse Laurent series. We study relations between the set of annihilators in R and the set of annihilators in R((x ^?1; α)). Among applications, we show that a number of interesting properties of a SIL-Armendariz ring R such as the Baer and the α-quasi Baer property transfer to its skew inverse Laurent series extensions R((x ^?1; α)) and vice versa. For an α-weakly rigid ring R, R((x ^?1; α)) is a left p.q.-Baer ring if and only if R is left p.q.-Baer and every countable subset of S _?(R) has a generalized countable join in R. Various types of examples of SIL-Armendariz rings is provided.

Special Properties of Rings of Generalized Power Series

Abstract

Let R be a ring and (S, ≤) a strictly ordered monoid. Properties of the ring [[R ^S,≤]] of generalized power series with coefficients in R and exponents in S are considered in this paper. It is shown that [[R ^S,≤]] is reduced (2-primal, Dedekind finite, clean, uniquely clean) if and only if R is reduced (2-primal, Dedekind finite, clean, uniquely clean, respectively) under some additional conditions. Also a necessary and sufficient condition is given for rings under which the ring [[R ^S,≤]] is a reduced left PP-ring.     

Morita Duality for the Rings of Generalized Power Series

Let A, B be associative rings with identity, and (S, ≤) a strictly totally ordered monoid which is also artinian and finitely generated. For any bimodule _A M _B , we show that the bimodule _{[[ AS,≤ ]]}[M ^{S ,≤}]_{[[ BS, ≤ ]]} defines a Morita duality if and only if _A M _B defines a Morita duality and A is left noetherian, B is right noetherian. As a corollary, it is shown that the ring [[A ^{S ,≤}]] of generalized power series over A has a Morita duality if and only if A is a left noetherian ring with a Morita duality induced by a bimodule _A M _B such that B is right noetherian.
