Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the multilinear identities of the k×k matrices F2 were studied in terms of the cocharacters and codimension sequences, and the estimates were fairly good, while for k ≥ 3 only partial results were obtained.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between certain classes of ideals in RH (or R) and the group ring RG is investigated by employing McCoy's "going up" and "going down" method.
Abstract: Let R be a ring with identity and H a normal subgroup of the group G. In this paper the relationship between certain classes of ideals in RH (or R) and the group ring RG is investigated by employing McCoy's “going up” and “going down” method which he used for polynomial rings in [2]. From the results obtained it is inferred that P(R)S = P(RS) if S is an u.p. - semigroup with unity, wher P(R) is the prime radical of R. If H is a central subgroup of G such that G/H is an u.p.- group, then P(RG) = P(RH)RG. Furthermore, if L(R) denotes the Levitzki nil radical of R, then it is proved that if R is any ring and S and ordered semigroup with unity, then L(RS) = L(R)S. Also, if G/H can be ordered then L(RH) ∗ RG = L(RG), while L(RH) = L(RG) ∩ RH for any central subgroup H of G. If the upper nil radical of R is denoted by U(R), and H is normal subgroup of G such that G/H can be ordered, then U(RG) ⊆ U(RH) ∗RG. If R is any ring and S an ordered semigroup with unity, then we have U(RS) ⊆ U(R)S.

TL;DR: In this article, conditions on the commutative ring R and the semigroup ring S (with identity) are found which characterize those semigroup rings R[S] which are reduced or have weak global dimension at most one.
Abstract: In this paper conditions on the commutative ring R (with identity) and the commutative semigroup ring S (with identity) are found which characterize those semigroup rings R[S] which are reduced or have weak global dimension at most one. Likewise, those semigroup rings R[S] which are semihereditary are completely determined in terms of R and S.

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that in an arbitrary alternative ring of characteristic ≠ 2, the fourth power of every associator is in the commutative center of the ring.
Abstract: Shestakov showed that in an arbitrary alternative ring of characteristic ≠ 2, the fourth power of every associator Is in the commutative center. He raised the question whether this might bp so for the square of every associator. The answer to this question is no, Which is demonsuapared by an exumple of an altor-native algobre of dimension 107.


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that if G acts on R and if I is an essential right ideal of the fixed ring RG, then IR is essential in Rs. This result simplifies a number of proofs already in the literature.
Abstract: Let R ∗ G denote a crossed product of the finite group G over the ring R and let V be an R ∗ G-module. Maschke's theorem states that if 1/∣G∣ e R and if V is completely reducible as an R-module, then V is also completely reducible as an R ∗ G -module. In this paper, we obtain two applications of this theorem, both under the assumption that R is semiprime with no ∣G∣ -torsion. The first concerns group actions and here we show that if G acts on R and if I is an essential right ideal of the fixed ring RG , then IR is essential in Rs. This result, in turn, simplifies a number of proofs already in the literature. The second application here is a short proof of a theorem of Fisher and Montgomery which asserts that the crossed product R ∗ G is semiprime.
