The number of ideals in a ring

Here is a question that I first asked in math.stackexchange, but I think the question must be proposed here. Let $R$ be a finite commutative ring with identity. Under what conditions the number of ...

Ideal generated by two univariate, coprime, integer polynomials

Let $f(x)$, $g(x)$ be two univariate, coprime, integer polynomials and let $I=\big(f(x),g(x)\big)$ the ideal of $\mathbb{Z}[x]$ generated by $f, g$. Let $I \cap \mathbb{Z}$, that is, the elements of $\...

Question. Let $A$ be a Noetherian ring and $M$ a finitely generated $A$-module. Does there always exist an element $s\in M$ such that $\mathrm{Ann}(s)=\mathrm{Ann}(M)$? Remark. The annihilator of a ...

Does the set of ideals, whose Jacobson radical & nilradicals coincide, form a sublattice?

This question might be below the level of MO, so apologies in advance. I posted the same question in MS about a week ago without an answer so far. Let $R$ be a unital commutative ring and $L(R)$ ...

On GCD and LCM of elements in integral domains which has the property that any over ring has Going Down

Let $R$ be an integral domain with fraction field $K$ such that for every ring $R \subseteq S \subseteq K$ , the ring extension $R \subseteq S$ satisfies Going Down property i.e. for any chain of ...

On the set of non-zero elements in an integral domain whose generating principal ideal is of a special kind

Let $R$ be an integral domain. Consider the set $$S := \big\{a \in R\smallsetminus \{0\} : Ra+Rx \text{ is a principal ideal } \forall x \in R \big \}.$$ Is $S$ a saturated multiplicative closed ...

Reduced ring with all non-prime ideals finitely generated

Let $R$ be a reduced ring with all non-prime ideals finitely generated. Then is $R$ Noetherian ? If not, then is it true at least in the local case ? Without reduced assumption, it is not true even ...
