Jacobson Ring
In algebra, a Hilbert ring or a Jacobson ring is a ring such that every prime ideal is an intersection of primitive ideals. For commutative rings primitive ideals are the same as maximal ideals so in this case a Jacobson ring is one in which every prime ideal is an intersection of maximal ideals. Jacobson rings were introduced independently by , who named them after Nathan Jacobson because of their relation to Jacobson radicals, and by , who named them Hilbert rings after David Hilbert because of their relation to Hilbert's Nullstellensatz. Jacobson rings and the Nullstellensatz Hilbert's Nullstellensatz of algebraic geometry is a special case of the statement that the polynomial ring in finitely many variables over a field is a Hilbert ring. A general form of the Nullstellensatz states that if ''R'' is a Jacobson ring, then so is any finitely generated ''R''-algebra ''S''. Moreover, the pullback of any maximal ideal ''J'' of ''S'' is a maximal ideal ''I'' of ''R'', and ''S/J' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Prime Ideal
In algebra, a prime ideal is a subset of a ring that shares many important properties of a prime number in the ring of integers. The prime ideals for the integers are the sets that contain all the multiples of a given prime number, together with the zero ideal. Primitive ideals are prime, and prime ideals are both primary and semiprime. Prime ideals for commutative rings An ideal of a commutative ring is prime if it has the following two properties: * If and are two elements of such that their product is an element of , then is in or is in , * is not the whole ring . This generalizes the following property of prime numbers, known as Euclid's lemma: if is a prime number and if divides a product of two integers, then divides or divides . We can therefore say :A positive integer is a prime number if and only if n\Z is a prime ideal in \Z. Examples * A simple example: In the ring R=\Z, the subset of even numbers is a prime ideal. * Given an integral domain R ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Radical Ideal
In ring theory, a branch of mathematics, the radical of an ideal I of a commutative ring is another ideal defined by the property that an element x is in the radical if and only if some power of x is in I. Taking the radical of an ideal is called ''radicalization''. A radical ideal (or semiprime ideal) is an ideal that is equal to its radical. The radical of a primary ideal is a prime ideal. This concept is generalized to non-commutative rings in the Semiprime ring article. Definition The radical of an ideal I in a commutative ring R, denoted by \operatorname(I) or \sqrt, is defined as :\sqrt = \left\, (note that I \subset \sqrt). Intuitively, \sqrt is obtained by taking all roots of elements of I within the ring R. Equivalently, \sqrt is the preimage of the ideal of nilpotent elements (the nilradical) of the quotient ring R/I (via the natural map \pi\colon R\to R/I). The latter proves that \sqrt is an ideal.Here is a direct proof that \sqrt is an ideal. Start with a,b\in\sqr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
American Mathematical Society
The American Mathematical Society (AMS) is an association of professional mathematicians dedicated to the interests of mathematical research and scholarship, and serves the national and international community through its publications, meetings, advocacy and other programs. The society is one of the four parts of the Joint Policy Board for Mathematics and a member of the Conference Board of the Mathematical Sciences. History The AMS was founded in 1888 as the New York Mathematical Society, the brainchild of Thomas Fiske, who was impressed by the London Mathematical Society on a visit to England. John Howard Van Amringe was the first president and Fiske became secretary. The society soon decided to publish a journal, but ran into some resistance, due to concerns about competing with the American Journal of Mathematics. The result was the ''Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society'', with Fiske as editor-in-chief. The de facto journal, as intended, was influential in in ...

Zariski's Lemma
In algebra, Zariski's lemma, proved by , states that, if a field is finitely generated as an associative algebra over another field , then is a finite field extension of (that is, it is also finitely generated as a vector space). An important application of the lemma is a proof of the weak form of Hilbert's nullstellensatz: if ''I'' is a proper ideal of k _1, ..., t_n/math> (''k'' algebraically closed field), then ''I'' has a zero; i.e., there is a point ''x'' in k^n such that f(x) = 0 for all ''f'' in ''I''. (Proof: replacing ''I'' by a maximal ideal \mathfrak, we can assume I = \mathfrak is maximal. Let A = k _1, ..., t_n/math> and \phi: A \to A / \mathfrak be the natural surjection. By the lemma A / \mathfrak is a finite extension. Since ''k'' is algebraically closed that extension must be ''k''. Then for any f \in \mathfrak, :f(\phi(t_1), \cdots, \phi(t_n)) = \phi(f(t_1, \cdots, t_n)) = 0; that is to say, x = (\phi(t_1), \cdots, \phi(t_n)) is a zero of \mathfrak.) The lem ...

Nilradical Of A Ring
In algebra, the nilradical of a commutative ring is the ideal consisting of the nilpotent elements: :\mathfrak_R = \lbrace f \in R \mid f^m=0 \text m\in\mathbb_\rbrace. In the non-commutative ring case the same definition does not always work. This has resulted in several radicals generalizing the commutative case in distinct ways; see the article Radical of a ring for more on this. The nilradical of a Lie algebra is similarly defined for Lie algebras. Commutative rings The nilradical of a commutative ring is the set of all nilpotent elements in the ring, or equivalently the radical of the zero ideal. This is an ideal because the sum of any two nilpotent elements is nilpotent (by the binomial formula), and the product of any element with a nilpotent element is nilpotent (by commutativity). It can also be characterized as the intersection of all the prime ideals of the ring (in fact, it is the intersection of all minimal prime ideals). A ring is called reduced if it has ...

Goldman Ideal
In mathematics, a Goldman domain or G-domain is an integral domain ''A'' whose field of fractions is a finitely generated algebra over ''A''.Goldman domains/ideals are called G-domains/ideals in (Kaplansky 1974). They are named after Oscar Goldman. An overring (i.e., an intermediate ring lying between the ring and its field of fractions) of a Goldman domain is again a Goldman domain. There exists a Goldman domain where all nonzero prime ideals are maximal although there are infinitely many prime ideals.Kaplansky, p. 13 An ideal ''I'' in a commutative ring ''A'' is called a Goldman ideal if the quotient ''A''/''I'' is a Goldman domain. A Goldman ideal is thus prime, but not necessarily maximal. In fact, a commutative ring is a Jacobson ring if and only if every Goldman ideal in it is maximal. The notion of a Goldman ideal can be used to give a slightly sharpened characterization of a radical of an ideal: the radical of an ideal ''I'' is the intersection of all Goldman ideals ...

Non-archimedean Field
In abstract algebra and analysis, the Archimedean property, named after the ancient Greek mathematician Archimedes of Syracuse, is a property held by some algebraic structures, such as ordered or normed groups, and fields. The property, typically construed, states that given two positive numbers ''x'' and ''y'', there is an integer ''n'' such that ''nx'' > ''y''. It also means that the set of natural numbers is not bounded above. Roughly speaking, it is the property of having no ''infinitely large'' or ''infinitely small'' elements. It was Otto Stolz who gave the axiom of Archimedes its name because it appears as Axiom V of Archimedes’ ''On the Sphere and Cylinder''. The notion arose from the theory of magnitudes of Ancient Greece; it still plays an important role in modern mathematics such as David Hilbert's axioms for geometry, and the theories of ordered groups, ordered fields, and local fields. An algebraic structure in which any two non-zero elements are ''comparable' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Primitive Ideal
In mathematics, specifically ring theory, a left primitive ideal is the annihilator of a (nonzero) simple left module. A right primitive ideal is defined similarly. Left and right primitive ideals are always two-sided ideals. Primitive ideals are prime. The quotient of a ring by a left primitive ideal is a left primitive ring. For commutative rings the primitive ideals are maximal, and so commutative primitive rings are all fields. Primitive spectrum The primitive spectrum of a ring is a non-commutative analogA primitive ideal tends to be more of interest than a prime ideal in non-commutative ring theory. of the prime spectrum of a commutative ring. Let ''A'' be a ring and \operatorname(A) the set of all primitive ideals of ''A''. Then there is a topology on \operatorname(A), called the Jacobson topology, defined so that the closure of a subset ''T'' is the set of primitive ideals of ''A'' containing the intersection of elements of ''T''. Now, suppose ''A'' is an associat ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Tate Algebra
In algebra, the ring of restricted power series is the subring of a formal power series ring that consists of power series whose coefficients approach zero as degree goes to infinity.. Over a non-archimedean complete field, the ring is also called a Tate algebra. Quotient rings of the ring are used in the study of a formal algebraic space as well as rigid analysis, the latter over non-archimedean complete fields. Over a discrete topological ring, the ring of restricted power series coincides with a polynomial ring; thus, in this sense, the notion of "restricted power series" is a generalization of a polynomial. Definition Let ''A'' be a linearly topologized ring, separated and complete and \ the fundamental system of open ideals. Then the ring of restricted power series is defined as the projective limit of the polynomial rings over A/I_: :A \langle x_1, \dots, x_n \rangle = \varprojlim_ A/I_ _1, \dots, x_n/math>. In other words, it is the completion of the polynomial ring A ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
