Abstract:

The paper concerns some cases of ring extensions $R \subset S$, where $S$ is finitely generated as a right $R$-module and $R$ is right Noetherian. In ${\text {\S }}1$ it is shown that if $R$ is a Jacobson ring, then so is $S$, with the converse true in the ${\text {PI}}$ case. In ${\text {\S }}2$ we show that if $S$ is semiprime ${\text {PI}}$, $R$ must also be left (as well as right) Noetherian and $S$ is finitely generated as a left .$R$-module. ${\text {\S }}3$ contains a result on $E$-rings.
