Abstract:

In 1964, Andrunakievič and Rjabuhin showed that the general theory of radicals of associative rings may be presented in external form in the language of modules. In this paper, we show that this theory has a natural extension to varieties of algebras where, in this case, modules are replaced by bimodules. We close with some examples and a discussion of quadratic Jordan algebras.
