The topological Jacobson radical of rings. II. (Q1930228)

The authors continue their study of the topological Jacobson radical of topological rings started in part I [J. Math. Sci., New York 185, No. 2, 207-220 (2012); translation from Fundam. Prikl. Mat. 16, No. 8, 49-68 (2010; Zbl 1262.16049)]. They show that a primitive topological ring possesses a faithful topologically irreducible module. They also prove that the topological Jacobson radical of a compact ring contains the Jacobson radical of the ring. Finally, they show that for a left topological Artinian ring \(R\), which is bounded from the right, its topological Jacobson radical \(\mathrm{top\,}J(R)\) is nilpotent and the quotient \(R/(\mathrm{top\,}J(R))\) is a discrete left Artinian semisimple ring.
