Abstract: | Abstract Throughout G will denote a free Abelian group and Z(R) the right singular ideal of a ring R. A ring R is a Cl-ring if R is (Goldie) right finite dimensional, R/Z(R) is semiprime, Z(R) is rationally closed, and Z(R) contains no closed uniform right ideals. We prove that R is a Cl-ring if and only if the group ring RG is a C1-ring. If RG has the additional property that bRG is dense whenever b is a right nonzero-divisor, then the complete ring of quotients of RG is a classical ring of quotients. |
