SBI ring
In algebra, an SBI ring is a ring R (with identity) such that every idempotent of R modulo the Jacobson radical can be lifted to R. The abbreviation SBI was introduced by Irving Kaplansky and stands for "suitable for building idempotent elements" (Jacobson 1956, p.53).
Examples
- Any ring with nil radical is SBI.
- Any Banach algebra is SBI: more generally, so is any compact topological ring.
- The ring of rational numbers with odd denominator, and more generally, any local ring, is SBI.
gollark: Generate the HTML on-demand with GPT or something, you mean?
gollark: The main problems are:- as previously mentioned, there are no good programming languages- it would have to interop with all the other osmarks.net subsystems, and some of them are bad
gollark: If I were to go from a static site to a dynamic site, the comment system and theming could be better integrated, along with achievements.
gollark: I have some ideas.
gollark: Oh, what would people think of yet another dubiously valuable osmarks.net restructuring™?
