Left hereditary supernilpotent radical classes (Q1917166)

In 1983, K. I. Beidar and K. Salavova introduced the concept of a hereditary left weakly special class of rings and, with the aid of this class, a necessary and sufficient condition for a supernilpotent radical class to be left hereditary was given. The author constructs the smallest hereditary left weakly special class of rings which contains a given hereditary class \(M\) of semi-prime rings. He calls this the hereditary left weakly special closure of the given class. For an arbitrary class of rings \(M\), let \({\mathcal U}M=\{R:R/I\notin M\) for each two-sided ideal \(I\) of \(R\) such that \(I\neq R\}\). The author uses the hereditary left weakly special closure of \(M\) to derive criteria equivalent to \({\mathcal U}M\) is left hereditary.
