Let S be a set of n ideals of a commutative ring A and let Geven (respectively Godd) denote the product of all the sums of even (respectively odd) number of ideals of S. If n ≤ 6 the product of Geven and the intersection of all ideals of S is included in Godd. In the case A is an Noetherian integral domain, this inclusion is replaced by equality if and only if A is a Dedekind domain.

The concept of a 0-distributive poset is introduced. It is shown that a section semicomplemented poset is distributive if and only if it is 0-distributive. It is also proved that every pseudocomplemented poset is 0-distributive. Further, 0-distributive posets are characterized in terms of their ideal lattices.

Baker-Beynon duality theory yields a concrete representation of any finitely generated projective Abelian lattice-ordered group G in terms of piecewise linear homogeneous functions with integer coefficients, defined over the support |Σ| of a fan Σ. A unimodular fan ∆ over |Σ| determines a Schauder basis ofG: its elements are the minimal positive free generators of the pointwise ordered group of...

We show that the lattice of all ideals of a ring $R$ can be embedded in the lattice of all its fuzzyideals in uncountably many ways. For this purpose, we introduce the concept of the generalizedcharacteristic function $chi _{s}^{r} (A)$ of a subset $A$ of a ring $R$ forfixed $r , sin [0,1] $ and show that $A$ is an ideal of $R$ if, and only if, its generalizedcharacteristic function $chi _{s}^{...

1. Introduction. When studying ideal theory in semirings, it is natural to consider the quotient structure of a semiring modulo an ideal. If 7 is an ideal in a semiring R, the collection {x+l}xeit oí sets x + I={x+i\iEl} need not be a partition of R. Faced with this problem, [2] used equivalence relations to determine cosets relative to an ideal. La Torre successfully established analogues of s...

In this paper, for a complete lattice L, we introduce interval-valued L-fuzzy ideal (prime ideal) of a near-ring which is an extended notion of fuzzy ideal (prime ideal) of a near-ring. Some characterization and properties are discussed.

Residuation is a fundamental concept of ordered structures and categories. In this survey we consider the consequences of adding a residuated monoid operation to lattices. The resulting residuated lattices have been studied in several branches of mathematics, including the areas of lattice-ordered groups, ideal lattices of rings, linear logic and multi-valued logic. Our exposition aims to cover...
