Maximal ideals in module categories and applications

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We study the existence of maximal ideals in preadditive categories defining an order preceq between objects, in such a way that if there do not exist maximal objects with respect to preceq, then there is no maximal ideal in the category. In our study, it is sometimes sufficient to restrict our attention to suitable subcategories. We give an example of a category mathbfCF of modules over a right noetherian ring R in which there is a unique maximal ideal. The category mathbfCF is related to an indecomposable injective module F, and the objects of mathbfCF are the R-modules of finite F-rank.
