Artinian rings having a nilpotent group of units

Central Units of Integral Group Rings of Nilpotent Groups

In this paper a finite set of generators is given for a subgroup of finite index in the group of central units of the integral group ring of a finitely generated nilpotent group. In this paper we construct explicitly a finite set of generators for a subgroup of finite index in the centre Z(U(ZG)) of the unit group U(ZG) of the integral group ring ZG of a finitely generated nilpotent group G. Ri...

Linearly Compact Rings Having a Simple Group of Units

Those linearly compact rings with identity having a simple group of units and a transsnitely nilpotent Jacobson radical are identiied. A consequence of this characterization is Cohen and Koh's classiication theorem for compact rings with identity having a simple group of units.

Artinian Band Sums of Rings

Band sums of associative rings were introduced by Weissglass in 1973. The main theorem claims that the support of every Artinian band sum of rings is finite. This result is analogous to the well-known theorem on Artinian semigroup rings. 1991 Mathematics subject classification (Amer. Math. Soc): primary 16P20, 16W50; secondary 20M25. Let B be a band, that is, a semigroup consisting of idempoten...

Artinian and Noetherian Rings

The Units of Group-rings

when addition and multiplication are defined in the obvious way, form a ring, the group-ring of G over K, which will be denoted by R (G, K). Henceforward, we suppose that K has the modulus 1, and we denote the identity in G by e0. Then R(G,K) has the modulus l.e0. Since no confusion can arise thereby, the element 1. e in R(G, K) will be written as e, and whenever it is convenient, the elements ...
