Bézout Rings with Almost Stable Range 1 are Elementary Divisor Rings

چکیده
Abstract. In this article we revisit a problem regarding Bézout domains, namely, whether every Bézout domain is an elementary divisor domain. Elementary divisor domains where defined by Kaplansky [13] and generalized to rings with zero-divisors by Gillman and Henriksen [7]. Later, in [14] it was shown that a domain R is an elementary divisor domain if and only if every finitely presented R-module is a direct sum of cyclic R-modules. In [14], it was also proved that if a Bézout domain satisfies Property (N), then it is an elementary divisor domain. The aim of this article is to generalize this result (as well as others) to a much wider class of rings. Our main result is that a Bézout ring all whose proper homomorphic images have stable range 1 (in particular, a neat ring) is an elementary divisor ring.

Elementary divisor domains were defined by Kaplansky [I. Kaplansky, Elementary divisors and modules, Trans. Amer. Math.

متن کاملElementary Divisor Domains and Bézout Domains
It is well-known that an Elementary Divisor domain R is a Bézout domain, and it is a classical open question to determine whether the converse statement is false. In this article, we provide new chains of implications between R is an Elementary Divisor domain and R is Bézout defined by hyperplane conditions in the general linear group. Motivated by these new chains of implications, we construct...
متن کاملOn zero-divisor graphs of quotient rings and complemented zero-divisor graphs
For an arbitrary ring $R$, the zero-divisor graph of $R$, denoted by $Gamma (R)$, is an undirected simple graph that its vertices are all nonzero zero-divisors of $R$ in which any two vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if either $xy=0$ or $yx=0$. It is well-known that for any commutative ring $R$, $Gamma (R) cong Gamma (T(R))$ where $T(R)$ is the (total) quotient ring of $R$. In this...
متن کاملA Graphical Characterization for SPAP-Rings
Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $I$ an ideal of $R$. The zero-divisor graph of $R$ with respect to $I$, denoted by $Gamma_I(R)$, is the simple graph whose vertex set is ${x in Rsetminus I mid xy in I$, for some $y in Rsetminus I}$, with two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $xy in I$. In this paper, we state a relation between zero-divisor graph of $R$ with respec...
متن کاملOn zero divisor graph of unique product monoid rings over Noetherian reversible ring
Let $R$ be an associative ring with identity and $Z^*(R)$ be its set of non-zero zero divisors. The zero-divisor graph of $R$, denoted by $Gamma(R)$, is the graph whose vertices are the non-zero zero-divisors of $R$, and two distinct vertices $r$ and $s$ are adjacent if and only if $rs=0$ or $sr=0$. In this paper, we bring some results about undirected zero-divisor graph of a monoid ring o...
