Duo rings and Ore extensions. (Q1763895): Difference between revisions

Let \(R\) be a ring with an endomorphism \(\sigma\) and a \(\sigma\)-derivation \(\delta\). Suppose that the skew polynomial extension \(S=R[X;\sigma,\delta]\) is left duo, that is each left ideal in \(S\) is a two-sided ideal. Then \(S\) is commutative. It means that \(R\) is commutative, \(\sigma\) is identical and \(\delta=0\). If \(S\) is right duo and noncommutative then the kernel of \(\sigma\) is contained in the radical of \(R\). There are some additional characterizations of \(\sigma\) and \(\delta\) in this particular case.
