A note on rings in which every maximal ideal is generated by a central idempotent

Commutative rings in which every finitely generated ideal is quasi-projective

This paper studies the multiplicative ideal structure of commutative rings in which every finitely generated ideal is quasi-projective. Section 2 provides some preliminaries on quasi-projective modules over commutative rings. Section 3 investigates the correlation with well-known Prüfer conditions; namely, we prove that this class of rings stands strictly between the two classes of arithmetical...

Rings of Continuous Functions in Which Every Finitely Generated Ideal is Principal

Rings for which every simple module is almost injective

We introduce the class of “right almost V-rings” which is properly between the classes of right V-rings and right good rings. A ring R is called a right almost V-ring if every simple R-module is almost injective. It is proved that R is a right almost V-ring if and only if for every R-module M, any complement of every simple submodule of M is a direct summand. Moreover, R is a right almost V-rin...

Every Group is a Maximal Subgroup of the Free Idempotent Generated Semigroup over a band

Given an arbitrary group G we construct a semigroup of idempotents (band) BG with the property that the free idempotent generated semigroup over BG has a maximal subgroup isomorphic to G. If G is finitely presented then BG is finite. This answers several questions from recent papers in the area.

Every Group Is a Maximal Subgroup of a Naturally Occurring Free Idempotent Generated Semigroup

The study of the free idempotent generated semigroup IG(E) over a biordered set E has recently received a deal of attention. Let G be a group, let n ∈ N with n ≥ 3 and let E be the biordered set of idempotents of the wreath product G ≀ Tn. We show, in a transparent way, that for e ∈ E lying in the minimal ideal of G ≀ Tn, the maximal subgroup of e in IG(E) is isomorphic to G. It is known that G...
