H. Weyl has defined a semi-simple algebra (of finite rank) to be an algebra which admits a faithful semi-simple linear representation. Now, algebras are rings with a field of operators; Artin and others have shown that the theory of semi-simple algebras can be generalized to a theory of semi-simple rings (without the field of operators) provided we replace the condition of finite rank by suitab...

the aim of this paper is to study orders over a valuation ring v with arbitrary rank in acentral simple f-algebra q. the relation between all of the orders is explained with a diagram. it is thenshown that inside bezout order, extremal v-orders are precisely semi-hereditary. in the last section, theeffect of henselization on maximal and semi-hereditary orders is examined.

‎We call a ring $R$ right generalized semiperfect if every simple right $R$-module is an epimorphic image of a flat right $R$-module with small kernel‎, ‎that is‎, ‎every simple right $R$-module has a flat $B$-cover‎. ‎We give some properties of such rings along with examples‎. ‎We introduce flat strong covers as flat covers which are also flat $B$-covers and give characterizations of $A$-perfe...

We define and studyco-Noetherian dimension of rings for which the injective envelopeof simple modules have finite Krull-dimension. This  is a Moritainvariant dimension that measures how far the ring is from beingco-Noetherian. The co-Noetherian dimension of certain rings,including commutative rings, are determined. It is shown that the class ${mathcal W}_n$ of rings with co-Noetherian dimension...
