Extension of the radical and radical of the extension of an ideal

If $A$ is a commutative ring, $I \subset A$ an ideal and $f:A \rightarrow B$ a ring homomorphism, then the extension of $I$, $I^e = \langle f(a): a \in I \rangle$ does not commute with the radical, I ...

Special idempotents in a commutative ring

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with $1$ and $e$ be an idempotent element of $R$ with the property that if $e=x+y$ (where $x, y\in R$), then there exists $r\in R$ such that either $e=rx$ or $e=ry$. ...

Inverse of the Structure Theorem for Finitely Generated Modules over PID

We know that for a PID $R$, any finitely generated module is of the form $\frac{R}{(a_1)} \oplus \dots \oplus \frac{R}{(a_s)} $. I was wondering if the converse of this statement is true, that is, is ...

Ideals invariant under ring automorphisms

I am looking for ideals $I\subset \mathbb{F}_2[x,y]$ with the following properties: $I$ is generated by two homogeneous elements; $I$ is invariant under the $SL_2(\mathbb{F}_2)$-action on $\mathbb{F}...

Cellular and primary binomial ideals

Let $I \subseteq \mathbb{K}[x_1, \dots, x_n]$ be an ideal of a polynomial ring over a field $\mathbb{K}$. $I$ is called cellular if every variable $x_i$, with $i=1, \dots, n$, is either a ...

Ideals and Idempotents in a commutative ring

Let $I$, $J$, and $K$ be pairwise comaximal ideals of a commutative ring $R$ with $1$ with the property that if $x^2-x\in I$, then there exists $e^2=e\in J$ such that $x-e\in I$ and if $y^2-y\in K$, ...

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 ...
