Commutators in associative rings
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 October 2008
Extract
Let R be an arbitrary associative ring, and X a set of generators of R. The elements of X generate a Lie ring, [X], say, with respect to the addition and subtraction in R, and the multiplication [a, b] = ab − ba. In this note we shall be concerned with the following question: if [X] is given to be nilpotent as a Lie ring, what does this imply about R?
