If {Ri}i ∈ I is a family of rings, then it is well-known that Q(Ri) = Q(Q(Ri)) and Q(∏i∈I Ri) = ∏i∈I Q(Ri), where Q(R) denotes the maximal ring of quotients of R. This paper contains an investigation of how these results generalize to the rings of quotients Qα(R) defined by ideals generated by dense subsets of cardinality less than ℵα. The special case of von Neumann regular rings is studied. Furthermore, a generalization of a theorem regarding orthogonal completions is established. Illustrative example are presented.

Several definitions of a semigroup of quotients have been proposed and studied by a number of authors. For a survey, the reader may consult Weinert's paper [8]. The motivation for many of these concepts comes from ring theory and the various notions of rings of quotients. We are concerned in this paper with an analogue of the classical ring of quotients, introduced by Fountain and Petrich in [3].

In [1] Lambek calls the injective R-module I nice if every torsionfree factor module of the ring of quotients Q of R with respect to lis divisible. If lis nice then g is a dense subring of the bicommutator BicRI of I with respect to the finite topology (see [1, Proposition 2]). We now give an example of an injective R-module over an Artinian ring R which is not nice. Since R is Artinian, Q=BicRI, by Proposition B of [1].Before we give the example, we state the following, which depends on [2] for terminology.

AbstractSanderson (Canad. Math. Bull., 8 (1965), 505–513), considering a nonempty collection Σ of left ideals of a ring R, with unity, defined the concepts of “Σ-injective module” and “Σ-essential extension” for unital left modules. Letting Σ be an idempotent topologizing set (called a σ-set below) Σanderson proved the existence of a “Σ-injective hull” for any unital left module and constructed an Utumi Σ-quotient ring of R as the bicommutant of the Σ-injective hull of RR. In this paper, we extend the concepts of “Σinjective module”, “Σ-essentialextension”, and “Σ-injective hull” to modules over arbitrary rings. An overring Σ of a ring R is a Johnson (Utumi) left Σ-quotient ring of R if RR is Σ-essential (Σ-dense) in RS. The maximal Johnson and Utumi Σ-quotient rings of R are constructed similar to the original method of Johnson, and conditions are given to insure their equality. The maximal Utumi Σquotient ring U of R is shown to be the bicommutant of the Σ-injective hull of RR when R has unity. We also obtain a σ-set UΣ of left ideals of U, generated by Σ, and prove that Uis its own maximal Utumi UΣ-quotient ring. A Σ-singular left ideal ZΣ(R) of R is defined and U is shown to be UΣ-injective when Z Σ(R) = 0. The maximal Utumi Σ-quotient rings of matrix rings and direct products of rings are discussed, and the quotient rings of this paper are compared with these of Gabriel (Bull. Soc. Math. France, 90 (1962), 323–448) and Mewborn (Duke Math. J. 35 (1968), 575–580). Our results reduce to those of Johnson and Utumi when 1 ∊ R and Σ is taken to be the set of all left ideals of R.

AbstractLet R be a semiprime ring with the extended centroid C and Q the maximal right ring of quotients of R. Set [y, x]1 = [y, x] = yx − xy for x, y ∈ Q and inductively [y, x]k = [[y, x]k−1, x] for k > 1. Suppose that f : R → Q is an additive map satisfying [f(x), x]n = 0 for all x ∈ R, where n is a fixed positive integer. Then it can be shown that there exist λ ∈ C and an additive map μ : R → C such that f(x) = λx + μ(x) for all x ∈ R. This gives the affirmative answer to the unsolved problem of such functional identities initiated by Brešar in 1996.

Let R be a prime ring of characteristic different from 2, Q be its maximal right ring of quotients, and C be its extended centroid. Suppose that [Formula: see text] is a non-central multilinear polynomial over C, [Formula: see text], and F, G are two b-generalized derivations of R. In this paper we describe all possible forms of F and G in the case [Formula: see text] for all [Formula: see text] in Rn.

J. Lambek and G. Michler [3] have initiated the study of a ring of quotients RP associated with a two-sided prime ideal P in a right noetherian ring R. The ring RP is the quotient ring (in the sense of [1]) associated with the hereditary torsion class τ consisting of all right R-modules M for which HomR(M, ER(R/P)) = 0, where ER(X) is the injective hull of the R-module X.In the present paper, we shall study further the properties of the ring RP. The main results are Theorems 4.3 and 4.6. Theorem 4.3 gives necessary and sufficient conditions for the torsion class associated with P to have property (T), as well as some properties of RP when these conditions are indeed satisfied, while Theorem 4.6 gives necessary and sufficient conditions for R to satisfy the right Ore condition with respect to (P).

We investigate here the notion of a topological ring of quotients of a topological ring with respect to an arbitrary Gabriel (idempotent) filter of right ideals. We describe the topological ring of quotients first as a subring of the algebraic ring of quotients, and then show it is a topological bicommutator of a topological injective R-module. Unlike R. L. Johnson in [6] and F. Eckstein in [2] we do not always make the ring an open subring of its ring of quotients. This would exclude examples such as C(X), the ring of continuous real-valued functions on a compact space, and its ring of quotients as described in Fine, Gillman and Lambek [3].
