Review text

In order to find all the Ore subsets of some ring \(R\), it is really only feasible to look in some sense for the maximal ones. From now on, \(C\) will always denote an Ore subset of \(R\). The saturation \(U\) of \(C\) is defined to be the set of elements of \(R\) which become units in the partial quotient ring of \(R\) corresponding to \(C\). An example is given to show that \(U\) can fail, in general, to be an Ore subset of \(R\). But \(U\) always has a unique largest Ore subset containing \(C\), called the Ore saturation of \(C\). For the rest of this review we assume that \(R\) is a serial ring, which is the motivating case of the paper. Given an Ore subset \(C\) of \(R\), there is in this setting a corresponding Goldie semi-prime ideal \(S\) of \(R\) which is the inverse image of the Jacobson radical of the partial quotient ring of \(R\) corresponding to \(C\). Let \(C(S)\) be the set of elements of \(R\) which are regular modulo \(S\). The main result shows that \(C(S)\) is both the saturation and the Ore saturation of \(C\). This raises the question as to whether \(C(S)\) is an Ore subset of \(R\) for every Goldie semi-prime ideal \(S\) of \(R\). The answer is already known to be ``Yes if \(S\) contains no non-zero idempotents. Necessary and sufficient conditions are established for \(C(S)\) to be Ore. It follows in particular that if \(R\) is a prime ring then \(C(S)\) is Ore if and only if \(S\) contains no non-zero idempotents, and the corresponding sets \(C(S)\) are the ``maximal Ore subsets of \(R\).
