On P.I. ring and standard identities

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

An example is given of a ring R (with 1) satisfying the standard identity S 6[x 1, ..., x 6] but M 2(R), the 2 × 2 matrix ring over R, does not satisfy S 12[x 1, ..., x 12]. This is in contrast to the case R=M n (F), F a field, where by the Amitsur-Levitzki theorem R satisfies S 2n [x 1, ..., x 2n] and M 2(R) satisfies S 4 n [x 1, ..., x n].
