Removes obsolete notation/definition
Mar 1, 2018 at 1:43 comment added Luc Guyot @KeithKearnes Great, I got it. I have removed the faulty claim.

Retracts the newly introduced Claim 2: it is wrong
Mar 1, 2018 at 1:23 comment added Keith Kearnes @LucGuyot: "isn't the Jacobson radical both a maximal and minimal two-sided ideal?" It is maximal, but not minimal. I took $K$ to be a quadratic extension of its prime field so that the $(K,K)$-bimodule $K\otimes_Z K$ would not be simple, hence the radical of the ring would not be minimal.
Mar 1, 2018 at 1:06 comment added Luc Guyot @KeithKearnes I can't but acknowledge this mistake, thanks again for pointing it out. About your example, isn't the Jacobson radical both a maximal and minimal two-sided ideal?
Mar 1, 2018 at 0:48 comment added Keith Kearnes @LucGuyot: The problem is that if K is an arbitrary field, then Mn(K) ⊗Z Mn(K)^op need not be a matrix ring over a field. This fails already when n=1.
Feb 28, 2018 at 22:48 comment added Luc Guyot @KeithKearnes Many thanks for your feedback. I am willing to correct or to remove the faulty parts. But I need to digest your two comments first.

Put Claim 2 on hold due to possibly mistake spotted by Keith Kearnes
Feb 28, 2018 at 21:35 comment added Keith Kearnes @LucGuyot: In fact, L IS the ideal lattice of a finite ring. Let $K$ be a finite field that is a quadratic extension of its prime field. Let $R$ be the ring of all $2\times 2$ matrices $\begin{bmatrix} a&m\\0&a\end{bmatrix}$ where $a\in K$, $m\in K\otimes_{\mathbb Z} K$, left/right actions of $K$ on $K\otimes_{\mathbb Z} K$ are determined by $r(p\otimes q)=rp\otimes q$ and $(p\otimes q)r=p\otimes qr$.

Reference to R. B. Wirt's PhD thesis on finite non-commutative local rings
Feb 27, 2018 at 16:44 comment added Luc Guyot @ToddTrimble No, he certainly didn't and I shamefully missed that point, thanks. I have now extended my answer.

Acknowledge the requirement that rings don't need to be finite
