A concrete analysis of the radical concept.
The weak radical, W-Rad(A) of a non-associative algebra A, has been introduced by A. Rodríguez Palacios in [3] in order to generalize the Johnson's uniqueness of norm theorem to general complete normed non-associative algebras (see also [2] for another application of this notion). In [4], he showed that if A is a semiprime non-associative algebra with DCC on ideals, then W-Rad(A) = 0. In the first part of this paper we give an example of a non-semiprime associative algebra A with DCC on ideals and...
2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 16N80, 16S70, 16D25, 13G05.We construct some new examples showing that Heyman and Roos construction of the essential closure in the class of associative rings can terminate at any finite or the first infinite ordinal.
Malt’tsev–Neumann products of semi-simple classes of associative rings are studied and some conditions which ensure that such a product is again a semi-simple class are obtained. It is shown that both products, and of semi-simple classes and are semi-simple classes if and only if they are equal.
