Characterization of differential and pure ideals in the Hurwitz series ring: structural insights and formulations (Q6657775)

Let \(R\) be a commutative ring with unity \(1\not=0\). In the set of all sequences of elements of \(R\), we define two operations in the following way: \((a_n)+(b_n)=(a_n+b_n)\) and \((a_n)*(b_n)=(c_n)\) where \(\displaystyle c_n=\sum_{i:0}^n(_i^n)a_ib_{n-i}\) for all \(n\). We obtain a commutative ring with unity called Hurwitz series ring and denoted \(HR\). This ring is equiped with a differential mapping \(d:HR\longrightarrow HR\) by \(d(a_0,a_1,a_2,\ldots)=(a_1,a_2,a_3,\ldots)\) which acts as a shift operator. An ideal \(I\) of \(R\) is called pure if for every \(a\in I\), there exists \(b\in I\) such that \(ab=a\). In the paper under review, the authors characterize pure and differential ideals in \(HR\).
