Throughout this discussion R will be an integral domain with quotient field Q and K = Q/R ≠ 0. If A is an R-module, then A is said to be torsion-free (resp. divisible), if for every r ≠ 0 ∈ R the endomorphism of A defined by x → rx, x ∈ A, is a monomorphism (resp. epimorphism). If A is torsion-free, the rank of A is defined to be the dimension over Q of the vector space A ⊗R Q; (we note that a torsion-free R-module of rank one is the same thing as a non-zero R-submodule of Q). A will be said to be indecomposable, if A has no proper, non-zero, direct summands. We shall say that A has D.C.C., if A satisfies the descending chain condition for submodules. By dim R we shall mean the maximal length of a chain of prime ideals in R.

Finite p-groups whose subgroups of given order are isomorphic and minimal non-abelian are classified. In addition, two results on a chain condition of 𝒜t-groups are improved.

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.

A GCD-domain is a commutative integral domain in which each pair of elements has a greatest common divisor (g.c.d.). (This is the terminology of Kaplansky [9]. Bourbaki uses the term ''anneau pseudobezoutien" [3, p. 86], while Cohn refers to such rings as "HCF-rings" [4].) The concept of a GCD-domain provides a useful generalization of that of a unique factorization domain (UFD), since several of the standard results for a UFD can be proved in this more general setting (for example, integral closure, some properties of D[X], etc.). Since the class of GCD-domains contains all of the Bezout domains, and in particular, the valuation rings, it is clear that some of the properties of a UFD do not hold in general in a GCD-domain. Among these are complete integral closure, ascending chain condition on principal ideals, and some of the important properties of minimal prime ideals.

In this note we consider commutative rings with identity over which every unitary module is a zero-divisor module. We call such rings Universally Zero-divisor (UZD) rings. We show (1) a Noetherian ring R is a UZD if and only if R is semilocal and the Krull dimension of R is at most one, (2) a Prüfer domain R is a UZD if and only if R has only a finite number of maximal ideals, and (3) if a ring R has Noetherian spectrum and descending chain condition on prime ideals then R is a UZD if and only if Spec (R) is a finite set. The question of ascent and descent of the property of a ring being a UZD with respect to integral extension of rings has also been answered.

For a positive integer t, a finite p-group G is an [Formula: see text]-group if all subgroups of index pt in G are abelian, and at least one subgroup of index pt-1 in G is not abelian. An [Formula: see text]-group G satisfies a chain condition if every [Formula: see text]-subgroup of G is contained in an [Formula: see text]-subgroup for all i ∈ {0, 1, 2, …, t - 1}, where [Formula: see text]-subgroups denote abelian subgroups. We prove that if t ≥ 2, then, except for some p-groups of small order, the following conditions for a group G of order pn are equivalent: (1) G is an [Formula: see text]-group satisfying a chain condition; (2) every subgroup of order pn-k in G is an [Formula: see text]-subgroup for 0 ≤ k ≤ t; (3) G is an ordinary metacyclic group.

We construct ascending chains of ideals in a commutative Noetherian ring [Formula: see text] that reach arbitrary long sequences of equalities, however the chain does not become stationary at that point. For a regular ideal [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text], the Ratliff–Rush reduction number [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is the smallest positive integer [Formula: see text] at which the chain [Formula: see text] becomes stationary. We construct ideals [Formula: see text] so that such a chain reaches an arbitrary long sequence of equalities but [Formula: see text] is not being reached yet.

AbstractWe develop the idea of a θ-ordering (where θ is an infinite cardinal) for a family of infinite sets. A θ-ordering of the family A is a well ordering of A which decomposes A into a union of pairwise disjoint intervals in a special way, which facilitates certain transfinite constructions. We show that several standard combinatorial properties, for instance that of the family A having a θ-transversal, are simple consequences of A possessing a θ-ordering. Most of the paper is devoted to showing that under suitable restrictions, an almost disjoint family will have a θ-ordering. The restrictions involve either intersection conditions on A (the intersection of every λ-size subfamily of A has size at most κ) or a chain condition on A.
