Right Mori Orders (Q495890)

This article studies a generalization of Mori domains. We recall that a Mori domain was introduced by \textit{J. Querré} in [Cours d'algèbre. Masson (1976; Zbl 0341.00001)] and has been studied extensively since then. A Mori domain is an integral domain which satisfies the ascending chain condition on integral divisorial ideals. This notion has been extended to commutative rings with zero-divisors, especially by Lucas where various equivalent conditions have been studied. This paper represents the investigation of the natural extension of the Mori property to orders in simple Artinian rings. These are called right Mori orders. An order \(S\) in a simple Artinian ring \(Q\) is called a right Mori order if the ascending chain condition holds on the set of integral right \(\nu\)-ideals. While the localization of a Mori domain is a Mori domain, we see that this does not hold for Mori rings. This leads to the author asking similar questions about which properties of Mori domains carry over to Mori orders. There are several nice results which we now summarize. The intersection of a family of right Mori orders of finite character are a right Mori order. The non-commutative Krull orders of Marubayashi are right and left Mori orders. If two local orders have the same set of prime ideals, then one is a right Mori order if and only if the other is. The author provides an example which demonstrates that a right Mori order need not be a left Mori order.
