\(\ell \)-prime elements in multiplicative lattices. (Q1771939): Difference between revisions

In the paper, \(\ell \)-prime elements in \(C\)-lattices are studied. A \(C\)-lattice is a complete multiplicative lattice with least element 0 and compact greatest element 1 a multiplicative identity, which is generated under joins by a multiplicative closed subset \(C\) of compact elements. A prime element \(p\) of \(L\) is said to be \(\ell \)-prime if the set of all \(p\)-primary elements of \(L\) is linearly ordered. The author characterizes Prüfer lattices, almost principal element lattices and principal element lattices in terms of \(\ell \)-prime elements. Using these results, some new characterizations for general ZPI-rings and almost multiplication rings are given. Also some new equivalent conditions for Dedekind lattices are given.
