Starting to read a book about algebraic geometry as well as the Wikipedia article on Erdős conjecture on arithmetic progressions, I came to think of what follows. Let $A$ be a set of positive integers,...

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 ...

Do you know a left-noetherian ring $R$ with a two-sided ideal $I$ such that: $I=I.I$; $I$ is not projective as a left $R$-module (and better, the tensor product over $R$ of $I$ with itself is not a ...

The Krull Intersection theorem states that : For a finitely generated module $M$ over a Noetherian ring $R$ and any ideal $I$ of $R$, we have $I(\cap_{k=1}^{\infty}I^k M)=\cap_{k=1}^{\infty}I^k M$ . ...

A theorem of Hungerford says that : Every PIR (principal ideal ring , obviously commutative ) is a homomorphic image of a finite direct product of PID s . My question is , is there a similar criteria ...
