On some questions related to Koethe's nil ideal problem
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 13 February 2015
Abstract
We study properties of two-sided and one-sided ideals of A-rings, i.e. rings that are sums of their nil left ideals. We show that the question as to whether one-sided ideals of A-rings are again A-rings is equivalent to the famous Koethe problem. We also obtain some results on another related open problem that asks whether annihilators of elements of non-zero A-rings are non-zero.
