A module is called uniseriat if it has a unique composition series of finite length. A ring (always with 1) is called serial if its right and left free modules are direct sums of uniserial modules. Nakayama, who called these rings generalized uniserial rings, proved [21, Theorem 171 that every finitely generated module over a serial ring is a direct sum of uniserial modules. In section one we g...

A calyx (multiplicative lattice) is a complete lattice endowed with the structure of a monoid such that multiplication by an element is a left adjoint functor of complete lattices (equivalently, a left adjoint functor which preserves colimits). Calyxes are a generalization of the set of ideals of a ring, which form a complete lattice under intersection and summation; in conjunction with the nat...

An old question of T. Jech and K. Prikry asks if an existence of a precipitous ideal implies necessary existence of a normal precipitous ideal. The aim of the paper is to prove some results in the positive direction. Thus, it is shown that under some mild assumptions, an existence of a precipitous ideal over א1 implies an existence of a normal precipitous ideal over א1 once a Cohen subset is ad...

the rings considered in this article are commutative with identity $1neq 0$. by a proper ideal of a ring $r$,  we mean an ideal $i$ of $r$ such that $ineq r$.  we say that a proper ideal $i$ of a ring $r$ is a  maximal non-prime ideal if $i$ is not a prime ideal of $r$ but any proper ideal $a$ of $r$ with $ isubseteq a$ and $ineq a$ is a prime ideal. that is, among all the proper ideals of $r$,...

In this paper, we present a heuristic algorithm that computes the ideal class group and a generator of a principal ideal (PIP) in Q(ζps) in time 2 ) for n := deg(Q(ζps)) and arbitrarily small ε > 0. We introduce practical improvements to enhance its run time, and we describe a variant that can compute a generator of a principal ideal I with N (I) ≤ 2 b in time 2( ) given a precomputation of the...
