Let R be a ring in which the multiplicative semigroup is completely semisimple. If R has the maximum (respectively, minimum) condition on principal multiplicative ideals. then R is semiprime artinian (respectively, a direct sum of dense rings of finite-rank linear transformations of vector spaces over division rings).
