Semilattices of Finitely Generated Ideals of Exchange Rings with Finite Stable Rank

We find a distributive (∨, 0, 1)-semilattice Sω1 of size א1 that is not isomorphic to the maximal semilattice quotient of any Riesz monoid endowed with an order-unit of finite stable rank. We thus obtain solutions to various open problems in ring theory and in lattice theory. In particular: — There is no exchange ring (thus, no von Neumann regular ring and no C*-algebra of real rank zero) with ...

Weakly irreducible ideals

Let $R$ be a commutative ring. The purpose of this article is to introduce a new class of ideals of R called weakly irreducible ideals. This class could be a generalization of the families quasi-primary ideals and strongly irreducible ideals. The relationships between the notions primary, quasi-primary, weakly irreducible, strongly irreducible and irreducible ideals, in different rings, has bee...

Exchange Rings Having Stable Range One

We investigate the sufficient conditions and the necessary conditions on an exchange ring R under which R has stable range one. These give nontrivial generalizations of Theorem 3 of V. P. Camillo and H.-P. Yu (1995), Theorem 4.19 of K. R. Goodearl (1979, 1991), Theorem 2 of R. E. Hartwig (1982), and Theorem 9 of H.-P. Yu (1995). 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification.
