On the Jacobson radical of a groupoid graded ring (Q2659133)

Let \(S\) be a finite cancellative partial groupoid, and let \(R\) be a ring graded by \(S\). The aim of the paper is to answer some open questions of \textit{A. V. Kelarev} [Ring constructions and applications. Singapore: World Scientific (2002; Zbl 0999.16036)]. In particular it is proved that for any idempotent element \(e\) of \(S\), one has \(J(R)\cap R_e=J(R_e)\) and \(P(R)\cap R_e=P(R_e)\), where \(J(R)\) is the Jacobson radical of \(R\), and \(P(R)\) is the prime radical of \(R\). It is also showed that there exists a positive integer \(n\) such that \(J(R)^n\) is contained in the largest homogeneous quasi-regular ideal of \(R\).
