Abstract:
Let , , , , be the usual operators on classes of rings: and for isomorphic and homomorphic images of rings and , , respectively for subrings, direct, and subdirect products of rings. If is a class of commutative rings with identity (and in general of any kind of algebraic structures), then the class is known to be the variety generated by the class . Although the class is in general a proper subclass of the class for many familiar varieties . Our goal is to give an example of a class of commutative rings with identity such that . As a consequence we will describe the structure of two partially ordered monoids of operators.
