Radicals of semigroup rings over completely 0-simple semigroups (Q1123985)

Let S be a completely 0-simple semigroup, let R be a ring and \(\pi\) a radical which is supernilpotent, left strong, and left hereditary. A description of the radical \(\pi (R_ 0[S])\) of the contracted semigroup ring \(R_ 0[S]\) is given. Reviewer's note: The author seems unaware of certain papers on the ideal structure and representations of rings of the form \(R_ 0[S]\), that in particular lead to a description of the Jacobson and Baer radicals of \(R_ 0[S]\); see \textit{D. B. McAlister} [J. Aust. Math. Soc. 12, 257-274 (1971; Zbl 0225.20042)].
