Artinian ring

The term artinian ring or artinian module (after Emil Artin ) describes a certain finiteness condition in the mathematical field of algebra. The term has some analogies to the notion of Noetherian ring, the two terms are not connected to each other in a very simple manner. For example, each artinian ring is noetherian, but not vice versa.

Artinian module

Definition

A module over a ring is called artinian if it satisfies one of the following equivalent conditions:

  • Every non -empty set of submodules of has a minimal element with respect to inclusion.
  • Each descending sequence of submodules becomes stationary, ie in a chain
  • For each family of submodules of a finite subset exists, then applies that:

Examples

  • Every finite module is artinian
  • Every finitely generated module over an artinian ring is artinian
  • Is not artinian module
  • A finite direct sum of artinian modules is artinian
  • If an (associative ) algebra over a field, and has a module finite - dimensional, so is artinian. For example, the rings and artinsch.
  • Is artinian, but not

Properties

  • Every injective endomorphism is an automorphism
  • For an exact sequence of modules are equivalent:
  • Are equivalent for a ( left ) module over a (left ) artinian ring: M is (left ) artinian
  • M is (left ) Noetherian
  • M is finitely generated

Artinian ring

Definition

A ring is called linksartinsch if it is artinian as a left - module.

A ring is called rechtsartinsch if it is artinian as right - module.

A ring is called artinian, is when the left and rechtsartinsch.

(Note: The submodules are then precisely the ( left / right ) ideals. )

Examples

  • Bodies are artinian
  • Let K be a field, R is a finitely generated K- algebra (ie for a suitable ideal), then R is an artinian ring if and only if.
  • Is rechtsnoethersch, but neither linksartinsch still linksnoethersch.
  • Is rechtsartinsch but not linksartinsch.

Properties

  • An artinian ring is noetherian
  • More specifically, a commutative ring with unit element if and only artinian if it is Noetherian and zero-dimensional (ie, if every prime ideal is a maximal ideal )
  • An artinian ring integrity is already a body. It even applies the following stronger statement: An integral domain which satisfies the descending chain condition for principal ideals, is a body.
  • Is in a ring, the zero ideal product maximal ideals, so the ring is artinian if and only if it is noetherian
  • In an artinian ring, every prime ideal is already a maximum
  • In an artinian ring, there are only finitely many maximal ideals (and thus only finitely many prime ideals )
  • In an artinian ring, the nilradical is nilpotent
  • Every artinian ring is a finite product of local artinian rings
