A class of principal ideal rings arising from the converse of the Chinese remainder theorem.
The aim of this note is to give an alternative proof of uniqueness for the decomposition of a finitely generated torsion module over a P.I.D. (= principal ideal domain) as a direct sum of indecomposable submodules.Our proof tries to mimic as far as we can the standard procedures used when dealing with vector spaces.For the sake of completeness we also include a proof of the existence theorem.
We construct an example of a Fréchet m-convex algebra which is a principal ideal domain, and has the unit disk as the maximal ideal space.
In this paper we study commutative rings whose prime ideals are direct sums of cyclic modules. In the case is a finite direct product of commutative local rings, the structure of such rings is completely described. In particular, it is shown that for a local ring , the following statements are equivalent: (1) Every prime ideal of is a direct sum of cyclic -modules; (2) where is an index set and is a principal ideal ring for each ; (3) Every prime ideal of is a direct sum of at most...
We characterize prime submodules of for a principal ideal domain and investigate the primary decomposition of any submodule into primary submodules of
