Let SI be a finite dimensional algebra with unit element over a field. 21 is generalized uniserial if every primitive (left or right) ideal has a unique composition series. 21 is a UMFR algebra (an algebra with a unique minimal faithful representation) if 21 has only one faithful representation which is minimal with respect to being faithful. The notation used in this paper will be that of an e...

It is proved that a ring A right or left Noetherian, distributive, centrally essential if and only [Formula: see text], where each of the rings text] either commutative Dedekind domain Artinian, uniserial ring.
