Let D be a division ring with the center F . We say that D is a division ring of type 2 if for every two elements x, y ∈ D, the division subring F (x, y) is a finite dimensional vector space over F . In this paper we investigate multiplicative subgroups in such a ring.
Weakly locally finite division rings were considered in [7], where it was mentioned that the class of weakly locally finite division rings properly contains the class of locally finite division rings. In this paper, for any integer n ≥ 0 or n = ∞, we construct a weakly locally finite division ring whose Gelfand-Kirillov dimension is n. This fact shows in particular that there exist infinitely many weakly locally finite division rings that are not locally finite. Further, for the class of weakly locally finite division rings, we investigate some questions related with the well-known Kurosh Problem and with one of Herstein's conjectures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
