Abstract:
The concept of the radical of a ring was introduced by Artin for rings with the descending chain condition with a view to obtaining a nice structure theorem for the ring. The idea was to single out the Toblerone part, of a ring, called the radical of the ring, and factor out the original ring with respect to the radical. The resulting ring, termed, semi simple has a nice description. Radica1s for rings without chain conditions were proposed by Koethe, Jacobson, Brown, McCoy, Levitzki and others for a similar purpose in an attempt to generalize Artin 's radical. All these attempts were later further generalized by Kurosh and Amitsur to define the concept of a general radical of a ring and the cones ponding semi simple ring and study these in their generality. Andrunakievic advanced these studies further.
The class of rings which are radicals of themselves with respect to some radical is called a radical class, or simply, a radical, and the correponding class of the semisimple rings is called a semisimple class. A class rings may be simultaneously a radical ring with respect to some radical and a semisimple ring with respect to another radical. Such a class of rings is called a semisimple radical class. In this thesis we have studied radical classes, semisimple classes and semisimple radical classes of rings………………….
