Fountain-Gould left orders for associative pairs. (Q2508580): Difference between revisions

The starting point for this paper is the notion of order for not necessarily unital rings given by Fountain and Gould, who obtained a Goldie-like characterization of two-sided orders in semiprime rings coinciding with their socles. These results were subsequently extended by Ánh and Márki to one-sided orders and, more recently, local algebras were used by \textit{A. Fernández López}, \textit{E. García Rus}, \textit{M. Gómez Lozano}, and \textit{M. Siles Molina} [Commun. Algebra 26, No. 9, 2987-3020 (1998; Zbl 0911.17001)], to give a notion of order for associative pairs and describe such two-sided orders in semiprime pairs coinciding with their socles. In the paper under review, the authors obtain similar results for one-sided orders. The pair problems are translated into algebra ones by using envelopes and local algebras, and the associative pairs which are weak Fountain-Gould one-sided orders in semiprime pairs coinciding with their socles are characterized in terms of chain conditions on left annihilators and local Goldie dimension.
