Polynomial constraints for finiteness of semisimple rings

Mohan S. Putcha and Adil Mohamed Yaqub

Vol. 57 (1975), No. 2, 519–530
Abstract

Suppose R is an associative ring with Jacobson radical J. Suppose that for each sequence x1,,xn in R there exists a polynomial p homogeneous (of bounded degree) in each xi and a monomial w in the x’s, in which some xt is missing, such that p = w. Then R∕J is finite. It is also shown that if the above polynomial p is a monomial, then R∕J is finite and J is nil of bounded index.
