Extending a result of Putcha and Yaqub, we prove that a non-nil ring must be finite if it has both ascending chain condition and descending chain condition on non-nil subrings. We also prove that a periodic ring with only finitely many non-central zero divisors must be either finite or commutative.

The smallest monoid containing a 2-testable semigroup is defined to be a 2-testable monoid. The well-known Brandt monoid B21 of order six is an example of a 2-testable monoid. The finite basis problem for 2-testable monoids was recently addressed and solved. The present article continues with the investigation by describing all monoid varieties generated by 2-testable monoids. It is shown that there are 28 such varieties, all of which are finitely generated and precisely 19 of which are finitely based. As a comparison, the sub-variety lattice of the monoid variety generated by the monoid B21 is examined. This lattice has infinite width, satisfies neither the ascending chain condition nor the descending chain condition, and contains non-finitely generated varieties.

If I is a right ideal of a ring R, I is said to be an annihilator right ideal provided that there is a subset S in R such thatI is said to be injective if it is injective as a submodule of the right regular R-module RR. The purpose of this note is to prove that a prime ring R (not necessarily with 1) which satisfies the ascending chain condition on annihilator right ideals is a simple ring with descending chain condition on one sided ideals if R contains a nonzero right ideal which is injective.

AbstractLet 𝔄 be a unital Banach algebra and ℜ its Jacobson radical. This paper investigates Banach algebras satisfying some chain conditions on closed ideals. In particular, it is shown that a Banach algebra 𝔄 satisfies the descending chain condition on closed left ideals then 𝔄/ℜ is finite dimensional. We also prove that a C*-algebra satisfies the ascending chain condition on left annihilators if and only if it is finite dimensional. Moreover, other auxiliary results are established.

AbstractA monoid S satisfies Condition (A) if every locally cyclic left S-act is cyclic. This condition first arose in Isbell's work on left perfect monoids, that is, monoids such that every left S-act has a projective cover. Isbell showed that S is left perfect if and only if every cyclic left S-act has a projective cover and Condition (A) holds. Fountain built on Isbell's work to show that S is left perfect if and only if it satisfies Condition (A) together with the descending chain condition on principal right ideals, MR. We note that a ring is left perfect (with an analogous definition) if and only if it satisfies MR. The appearance of Condition (A) in this context is, therefore, monoid specific. Condition (A) has a number of alternative characterisations, in particular, it is equivalent to the ascending chain condition on cyclic subacts of any left S-act. In spite of this, it remains somewhat esoteric. The first aim of this paper is to investigate the preservation of Condition (A) under basic semigroup-theoretic constructions. Recently, Khosravi, Ershad and Sedaghatjoo have shown that every left S-act has a strongly flat or Condition (P) cover if and only if every cyclic left S-act has such a cover and Condition (A) holds. Here we find a range of classes of S-acts $\mathcal{C}$ such that every left S-act has a cover from $\mathcal{C}$ if and only if every cyclic left S-act does and Condition (A) holds. In doing so we find a further characterisation of Condition (A) purely in terms of the existence of covers of a certain kind. Finally, we make some observations concerning left perfect monoids and investigate a class of monoids close to being left perfect, which we name left$\mathcal{IP}$a-perfect.

This paper establishes the following combinatorial result concerning the automorphisms of a modular lattice.THEOREM. Let M be a modular lattice and let G be a finite subgroup of the automorphism group of M. If the sublattice, MG, of (common) fixed points (under G) satisfies any of a large class of chain conditions, then M satisfies the same chain condition. Some chain conditions in this class are the following: the ascending chain condition; the descending chain condition; Krull dimension; the property of having no uncountable chains, no chains order-isomorphic to the rational numbers; etc.

We study some properties of a graph which is constructed from the equivalence classes of nonzero zero-divisors determined by the annihilator ideals of a poset. In particular, we demonstrate how this graph helps in identifying the annihilator prime ideals of a poset that satisfies the ascending chain condition for its proper annihilator ideals.

Let R be a commutative ring, with 𝔸(R) its set of ideals with nonzero annihilator. In this paper and its sequel, we introduce and investigate the annihilating-ideal graph of R, denoted by 𝔸𝔾(R). It is the (undirected) graph with vertices 𝔸(R)* ≔ 𝔸(R)\{(0)}, and two distinct vertices I and J are adjacent if and only if IJ = (0). First, we study some finiteness conditions of 𝔸𝔾(R). For instance, it is shown that if R is not a domain, then 𝔸𝔾(R) has ascending chain condition (respectively, descending chain condition) on vertices if and only if R is Noetherian (respectively, Artinian). Moreover, the set of vertices of 𝔸𝔾(R) and the set of nonzero proper ideals of R have the same cardinality when R is either an Artinian or a decomposable ring. This yields for a ring R, 𝔸𝔾(R) has n vertices (n ≥ 1) if and only if R has only n nonzero proper ideals. Next, we study the connectivity of 𝔸𝔾(R). It is shown that 𝔸𝔾(R) is a connected graph and diam (𝔸𝔾)(R) ≤ 3 and if 𝔸𝔾(R) contains a cycle, then gr (𝔸𝔾(R)) ≤ 4. Also, rings R for which the graph 𝔸𝔾(R) is complete or star, are characterized, as well as rings R for which every vertex of 𝔸𝔾(R) is a prime (or maximal) ideal. In Part II we shall study the diameter and coloring of annihilating-ideal graphs.

We say that a $C^*$-algebra is Noetherian if it satisfies the ascending chain condition for two-sided closed ideals. A nontrivially Noetherian $C^*$-algebra is one with infinitely many ideals. Here, we show that nontrivially Noetherian $C^*$-algebras exist, and that a separable $C^*$-algebra is Noetherian if and only if it contains countably many ideals and has no infinite strictly ascending chain of primitive ideals. Furthermore, we prove that every Noetherian $C^*$-algebra has a finite-dimensional center. Where possible, we extend results about the ideal structure of $C^*$-algebras to Artinian $C^*$-algebras (those satisfying the descending chain condition for closed ideals).

The purpose of this paper is to investigate completely indecomposable modules. A completely indecomposable module is an additive abelian group with a ring A as operator domain, where the following four conditions are satisfied.1-1. A is a commutative ring and has a unit element which is unit operator for .1-2. The submodules of satisfy the ascending chain condition. (Submodule will always mean invariant submodule.)
