Review text

Let \(R\) be an (associative) ring with unity, and let \(M\) be a right \(R\)-module. Then \(M\) is called right algebraically compact if and only if any linear system \(\sum x_ir_{ij}=m_j\) (\(r_{ij}\in R\), \(m_j\in M\), \(x_i\) are unknowns) has a solution in \(M\) provided any finite subsystem has a solution in \(M\). A ring \(R\) is called right algebraically compact if so is the module \(R_R\). A semigroup \(T\) is said to be left vanished if, for every sequence \(x_1,x_2,\dots\) of elements from \(S\), there exists a natural \(n\) such that \(x_1x_2\cdots x_n=0\). Assume \(S\) is a semigroup with zero, \(|S|>1\), and let \(RS\) denote the contracted semigroup ring of \(S\) over \(R\). The main result of a paper (Theorem 3.1) sounds as follows. Suppose \(S\) is as above, and assume that \(RS\) is a homomorphic image of a right algebraically compact ring. Then \(S\) has a finite ideal series with factors either completely 0-simple semigroups or left vanished semigroups. Thus the structure theorem of \textit{A. V. Klyushin} and \textit{I. B. Kozhukhov} [Semigroup Forum 39, No.~2, 215-248 (1989; Zbl 0669.20051)] proved for algebraically compact semigroup rings holds also for semigroups whose semigroup rings are homomorphic images of right algebraically compact rings. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0942.00026].
