Rings on certain mixed abelian groups

David R. Jackett

Vol. 98 (1982), No. 2, 365–373
Abstract

This paper is concerned with the ring structures supported by certain mixed abelian groups. A class of mixed abelian groups of torsion-free rank one is introduced, and properties of rings on groups in are discussed. We provide complete descriptions of the absolute annihilator and the absolute radical of groups in . These absolute ideals are also investigated for cotorsion groups and reduced algebraically compact groups, thus providing a partial solution to Problem 94 of Fuchs (Infinite abelian groups, Vol. II). The results also allow us to answer a question raised by Rotman (J. Algebra, 9 (1968), 369–387) concerning completions of rings.
