In mathematics, a Gelfand ring is an associative ring R with identity such that if I and J are distinct right ideals then there are elements i and j such that iRj=0, i is not in I, and j is not in J. introduced them as rings for which one could prove a generalization of Gelfand duality, and named them after Israel Gelfand. In the commutative case, Gelfand rings can also be characterized as the rings such that, for every a and b summing to 1, there exists r and s such that . Moreover, their prime spectrum deformation retracts onto the . (Wikipedia).
Ring Theory: We define rings and give many examples. Items under consideration include commutativity and multiplicative inverses. Example include modular integers, square matrices, polynomial rings, quaternions, and adjoins of algebraic and transcendental numbers.

Rings and midules 3: Burnside ring and rings of differential operators
This lecture is part of an online course on rings and modules. We discuss a few assorted examples of rings. The Burnside ring of a group is a ring constructed form the permutation representations. The ring of differentail operators is a ring whose modules are related to differential equat

Saturn: Best Rings in the Solar System
I think that nine out of ten people, if you ask them to picture a planet in their minds, will picture Saturn. Why? It's those rings! They are irresistible. Rings are to planets as peanut butter is to chocolate. The perfect complement. But there is much more to Saturn than just its rings. T
