Abstract

top
If M is a simple module over a ring R then, by the Schur's lemma, the endomorphism ring of M is a division ring. However, the converse of this result does not hold in general, even when R is artinian. In this short note, we consider perfect rings for which the converse assertion is true, and we show that these rings are exactly the primary decomposable ones.
