Abstract
We construct a unital locally matrix algebra of uncountable dimension that (1) does not admit a primary decomposition, (2) has an infinite locally finite Steinitz number. It gives negative answers to questions from [V. M. Kurochkin, On the theory of locally simple and locally normal algebras, Mat. Sb., Nov. Ser. 22(64)(3) (1948) 443–454; O. Bezushchak and B. Oliynyk, Unital locally matrix algebras and Steinitz numbers, J. Algebra Appl. (2020), online ready]. We also show that for an arbitrary infinite Steinitz number [Formula: see text] there exists a unital locally matrix algebra [Formula: see text] having the Steinitz number [Formula: see text] and not isomorphic to a tensor product of finite-dimensional matrix algebras.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
