When R is a local ring with a nilpotent maximal ideal, the Ore extension R[x;σ, δ] will or will not be 2-primal depending on the δ-stability of the maximal ideal of R. In the case where R[x;σ, δ] is 2-primal, it will satisfy an even stronger condition; in the case where R[x;σ, δ] is not 2-primal, it will fail to satisfy an even weaker condition. 1. Background and motivation In [13, Proposition ...
