AbstractIn 1929 J. Hjelmslev introduced a geometry over the dual numbers ℝ+tℝ with t2 = Q. The dual numbers form a Hjelmslev ring, that is a local ring whose (unique) maximal ideal is equal to the set of 2 sided zero divisors and whose ideals are totally ordered by inclusion. This paper first shows that if we endow the dual numbers with the product topology of ℝ2, then we obtain the only locally compact connected hausdorfT topological Hjelmslev ring of topological dimension two. From this fact we establish that Hjelmslev's original geometry, suitably topologized, is the only locally compact connected hausdorfr topological desarguesian projective Hjelmslev plane to topological dimension four.

The following problem was the starting point for this investigation: Can every desarguesian affine Hjelmslev plane be embedded into a desarguesian projective Hjelmslev plane [8]? An affine Hjelmslev plane is called desarguesian if it can be coordinatized by a right chain ring R with a maximal ideal J(R) consisting of two-sided zero divisors. A projective Hjemslev plane is called desarguesian if the coordinate ring is in addition a left chain ring, i.e. a chain ring. This leads to the algebraic version of the above problem, namely the embedding of right chain rings into suitable chain rings. We can prove the following result.

In this paper, R is considered a completely primary finite ring and Z(R) is its subset of all zero divisors (including zero), forming a unique maximal ideal. We give a construction of R whose subset of zero divisors Z(R) satisfies the conditions (Z(R))5 = (0); (Z(R))4 ̸= (0) and determine the structures of the unit groups of R for all its characteristics.

A Desarguesian affine Hjelmslev plane (D.A.H. plane) may be coordinatized by an affine Hjelmslev ring (A.H. ring), which is a local ring whose radical is equal to the set of two-sided zero divisors and whose principal right ideals are totally ordered (cf. [3]). In his paper on ordered geometries [4], P. Scherk discussed the equivalence of an ordering of a Desarguesian affine plane with an ordering of its coordinatizing division ring. We shall define an ordered D.A.H. plane and follow Scherk's methods to extend his results to D.A.H. planes and their A.H. rings i.e., we shall show that a D.A.H. plane is ordered if and only if its A.H. ring is ordered. We shall also give an example of an ordered A.H. ring. Finally, we shall discuss some infinitesimal aspects of the radical of an ordered A.H. ring.

In a Noetherian commutative ring with identity, every ideal can be expressed (not necessarily uniquely) as a finite intersection of primary ideals (called a primary decomposition). This note is concerned with powers of ideals generated by subsets of an R-sequence in a local ring R (i.e. a Noetherian commutative ring R with identity possessing a unique maximal ideal m) and with a decomposition of such ideals.

Let R be a Completely Primary Finite Ring with a unique maximal ideal Z(R)), satisfying ((Z(R))n−1 ̸= (0) and (Z(R))n = (0): The structures of the units some classes of such rings have been determined. In this paper, we investigate the structures of the zero divisors of R:

The main results in this paper relate the concepts of flatness and projectiveness for finitely generated ideals in a commutative ring with unity. In this discussion the idea of a multiplicative ideal is used.Definition.An ideal Jis multiplicative if and only if whenever I is an ideal with I ⊂ J there exists an ideal Csuch that I = JC.Throughout this paper Rwill denote a commutative ring with unity. If I and Jare ideals of R,then I: J = {x| xJ ⊂ I}. By “prime ideal” we will mean “proper prime ideal” and Specie will denote this set of ideals. Ris called a local ring if it has a unique maximal ideal (the ring need not be Noetherian). If P is in Spec R then RPis the quotient ring formed using the complement of P.

It was shown by Galovich that if [Formula: see text] is a commutative unique factorization ring (UFR) with identity, then [Formula: see text] is a local ring with a nil maximal ideal. In this paper, we generalize Galovich’s results to the non-commutative case.

According to general terminology, a ringRis completely primary if its set of zero divisorsJforms an ideal. LetRbe a finite completely primary ring. It is easy to establish thatJis the unique maximal ideal ofRandRhas a coefficient subringS(i.e.R/Jisomorphic toS/pS) which is a Galois ring. In this paper we give the construction of finite completely primary rings in which the product of any two zero divisors is inSand determine their enumeration. We also show that finite rings in which the product of any two zero divisors is a power of a fixed prime p are completely primary rings with eitherJ2=0or their coefficient subring isZ2nwithn=2or3. A special case of these rings is the class of finite rings, studied in [2], in which the product of any two zero divisors is zero.

Let [Formula: see text] be a regular local ring of dimension [Formula: see text]. A local monoidal transform of [Formula: see text] is a ring of the form [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a regular parameter, [Formula: see text] is a regular prime ideal of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is a maximal ideal of [Formula: see text] lying over [Formula: see text] In this paper, we study some features of the rings [Formula: see text] obtained as infinite directed union of iterated local monoidal transforms of [Formula: see text]. In order to study when these rings are GCD domains, we also provide results in the more general setting of directed unions of GCD domains.
