Artinian rings #
A ring is said to be left (or right) Artinian if it is Artinian as a left (or right) module over itself, or simply Artinian if it is both left and right Artinian.
Main definitions #
IsArtinianRing R
is the proposition thatR
is a left Artinian ring.
Main results #
IsArtinianRing.localization_surjective
: the canonical homomorphism from a commutative artinian ring to any localization of itself is surjective.IsArtinianRing.isNilpotent_jacobson_bot
: the Jacobson radical of a commutative artinian ring is a nilpotent ideal.
Implementation Details #
The predicate IsArtinianRing
is defined in Mathlib.RingTheory.Artinian.Ring
instead, so that we
can apply basic API on artinian modules to division rings without a heavy import.

Commutative artinian reduced local ring is a field.
If an element of an artinian ring is not a zero divisor then it is a unit.
In an artinian ring, an element is a unit iff it is a non-zero-divisor.
See also isUnit_iff_mem_nonZeroDivisors_of_finite
.
Localizing an artinian ring can only reduce the amount of elements.
IsArtinianRing.localization_artinian
can't be made an instance, as it would make S
+ R
into metavariables. However, this is safe.
