Abstract:The elements of minimal left (right) ideals in a semi-prime modular annihilator algebra A completely characterized by the property of being singles not in rad A. An element s of A is called single if whenever asb = 0 for some a, b in A then at least one of as, sb is zero. B(X) of bounded operators on X containing it. In a number of operator algebras the converse is also true (see [7], [lo], [12]) making the property of being equivalent to being an operator of rank one. In an abstract semi-prime modular annihil… Show more
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.
