Radicals which define factorization systems

Barry J. Gardner — 1991

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

A method due to Fay and Walls for associating a factorization system with a radical is examined for associative rings. It is shown that a factorization system results if and only if the radical is strict and supernilpotent. For groups and non-associative rings, no radical defines a factorization system.

Closure rings

Barry J. GardnerTim Stokes — 1999

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We consider rings equipped with a closure operation defined in terms of a collection of commuting idempotents, generalising the idea of a topological closure operation defined on a ring of sets. We establish the basic properties of such rings, consider examples and construction methods, and then concentrate on rings which have a closure operation defined in terms of their lattice of central idempotents.

Directoid groups

Barry J. GardnerMichael M. Parmenter — 2008

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We continue the study of directoid groups, directed abelian groups equipped with an extra binary operation which assigns an upper bound to each ordered pair subject to some natural restrictions. The class of all such structures can to some extent be viewed as an equationally defined substitute for the class of (2-torsion-free) directed abelian groups. We explore the relationship between the two associated categories, and some aspects of ideals of directoid groups.
