<p>The heavy lifting in the theory of Gabriel filters is for noncommutative rings, and discussions I've been able to find all focus there.</p> <p>I am trying to develop a theory of Gabriel-filter localization for Nikolai Durov's generalized rings, and some ugly classical examples would help.</p> <p>Classical expositions seem to leap as quickly as possible to the associated torsion theories. I doubt, after trying for a while, that torsion theories can work for modules over a GR: Factor modules may be very badly behaved, even when the GR is "naive," with all operations faithfully represented on the monoid of unary operations.</p>

<p>(It might look as if I got paid for promoting this book, but:) Bo Stenström's <em>Rings of Quotients</em> (Springer Grundlehren vol. 217, 1975; see <a href="http://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-642-66066-5/page/1" rel="nofollow">SpringerLink here</a>; an earlier draft had appeared as LNM 237) contains lots of examples of Gabriel filters (called Gabriel topologies there) on commutative as well as non-commutative rings. Of particular interest might be chapters VI -- IX and XIII, but all the chapters have many examples and exercises.</p>
