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.
For a symmetric cellular algebra, we study properties of the dual basis of a cellular basis first. Then a nilpotent ideal is constructed. The ideal connects the radicals of cell modules with the radical of the algebra. It also yields some information on the dimensions of simple modules. As a by-product, we obtain some equivalent conditions for a finite-dimensional symmetric cellular algebra to be semisimple.
In questo lavoro studiamo i non CC-gruppi monolitici con tutti i quozienti propri CC-gruppi, che hanno sottogruppi abeliani normali non banali.
Let Λ be an artinian ring and let 𝔯 denote its Jacobson radical. We show that a simple module of finite projective dimension has no self-extensions when Λ is graded by its radical, with at most two simple modules and 𝔯⁴ = 0, in particular, when Λ is a finite-dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field with at most two simple modules and 𝔯³ = 0.
