AbstractWe consider algebras for which the operation PC of pure closure of subsets satisfies the exchange property. Subsets that are independent with respect to PC are directly independent. We investigate algebras in which PC satisfies the exchange property and which are relatively free on a directly independent generating subset. Examples of such algebras include independence algebras and dinitely generated free modules over principal ideal domains.

AbstractIf $A$ is a stable basis algebra of rank $n$, then the set $S_{n-1}$ of endomorphisms of rank at most $n-1$ is a subsemigroup of the endomorphism monoid of $A$. This paper gives a number of necessary and sufficient conditions for $S_{n-1}$ to be generated by idempotents. These conditions are satisfied by finitely generated free modules over Euclidean domains and by free left $T$-sets of finite rank, where $T$ is cancellative monoid in which every finitely generated left ideal is principal.

Free ideal rings (or firs, cf. [2, 3] and § 2 below) form a noncommutative analogue of principal ideal domains, to which they reduce in the commutative case, and in [3] a category TR of right R-modules was defined, over any fir R, which forms an analogue of finitely generated torsion modules. The category TR was shown to be abelian, and all its objects have finite composition length; more over, the corresponding category RT of left R-modules is dual to TR.

Let R be a right hereditary domain in which all right ideals are two-sided (i.e., R is right invariant). We show that R is the intersection of generalized discrete valuation rings and that every right ideal is the product of prime ideals. This class of rings seems comparable with (and contains) the class of commutative Dedekind domains, but the rings considered here are in general not maximal orders and not Dedekind rings in the terminology of Robson [9]. The left order of a right ideal of such a ring is a ring of the same kind and the class contains right principal ideal domains in which the maximal right ideals are two-sided [6].

The purpose of this paper is to characterize the radical ideals of principal ideal domains and Dedekind domains. We show that if T is a radical class and R is a PID, then T(R) is an intersection of prime ideals of R. More specifically, ifthen T(R) = (p1p2 … pk), where p1, p2, … , pk are distinct primes, and where (p1p2 … Pk) denotes the principal ideal of R generated by p1p2 … pk. We also characterize the radical ideals of commutative principal ideal rings. For radical ideals of Dedekind domains we obtain a characterization similar to the one given for PID's.
