On regular subdirect products of simple Artinian rings (Q1113978): Difference between revisions

We construct a counterexample to settle simultaneously the following questions all in the negative: (1) Is a regular subdirect product of simple artinian rings unit-regular? (2) If R is a regular ring such that every nonzero ideal of R contains a nonzero ideal of bounded index, is R unit-regular? (3) Is a regular ring with a Hausdorff family of pseudo- rank functions unit-regular? (4) If R is a regular ring which contains no infinite direct sum of nonzero pairwise isomorphic right ideals, is R unit-regular? (5) Is a regular Schur ring unit-regular?
