Semiprime ring
In ring theory, a branch of mathematics, semiprime ideals and semiprime rings are generalizations of prime ideals and prime rings. In commutative algebra, semiprime ideals are also called radical ideals and semiprime rings are the same as reduced rings. For example, in the ring of integers, the semiprime ideals are the zero ideal, along with those ideals of the form where n is a square-free integer. So, is a semiprime ideal of the integers (because 30 = 2 × 3 × 5, with no repeated prime factors), but is not (because 12 = 22 × 3, with a repeated prime factor). The class of semiprime rings includes semiprimitive rings, prime rings and reduced rings. Most definitions and assertions in this article appear in and. (Wikipedia).
