Semilattices of Finitely Generated Ideals of Exchange Rings with Finite Stable Rank

چکیده
We find a distributive (∨, 0, 1)-semilattice Sω1 of size א1 that is not isomorphic to the maximal semilattice quotient of any Riesz monoid endowed with an order-unit of finite stable rank. We thus obtain solutions to various open problems in ring theory and in lattice theory. In particular: — There is no exchange ring (thus, no von Neumann regular ring and no C*-algebra of real rank zero) with finite stable rank whose semilattice of finitely generated, idempotent-generated two-sided ideals is isomorphic to Sω1 . — There is no locally finite, modular lattice whose semilattice of finitely generated congruences is isomorphic to Sω1 . These results are established by constructing an infinitary statement, denoted here by URPsr, that holds in the maximal semilattice quotient of every Riesz monoid endowed with an order-unit of finite stable rank, but not in the semilattice Sω1 .

Finitely Generated Annihilating-Ideal Graph of Commutative Rings
Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $mathbb{A}(R)$ be the set of all ideals with non-zero annihilators. Assume that $mathbb{A}^*(R)=mathbb{A}(R)diagdown {0}$ and $mathbb{F}(R)$ denote the set of all finitely generated ideals of $R$. In this paper, we introduce and investigate the {it finitely generated subgraph} of the annihilating-ideal graph of $R$, denoted by $mathbb{AG}_F(R)$. It is the (undi...
متن کاملPrime Ideals of Finite Height in Polynomial Rings
We investigate the structure of prime ideals of finite height in polynomial extension rings of a commutative unitary ring R. We consider the question of finite generation of such prime ideals. The valuative dimension of prime ideals of R plays an important role in our considerations. If X is an infinite set of indeterminates over R, we prove that every prime ideal of R[X] of finite height is fi...
متن کاملA NEW PROOF OF THE PERSISTENCE PROPERTY FOR IDEALS IN DEDEKIND RINGS AND PR¨UFER DOMAINS
In this paper, by using elementary tools of commutative algebra,we prove the persistence property for two especial classes of rings. In fact, thispaper has two main sections. In the first main section, we let R be a Dedekindring and I be a proper ideal of R. We prove that if I1, . . . , In are non-zeroproper ideals of R, then Ass1(Ik11 . . . Iknn ) = Ass1(Ik11 ) [ · · · [ Ass1(Iknn )for all k1,...
متن کاملA characterization of finitely generated multiplication modules
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $M$ be a finitely generated unital $R$-module. In this paper, first we give necessary and sufficient conditions that a finitely generated module to be a multiplication module. Moreover, we investigate some conditions which imply that the module $M$ is the direct sum of some cyclic modules and free modules. Then some properties of Fitting ideals o...
