A Seventy Years Jubilee: The Hopkins-Levitzki Theorem

  • Conference paper
Ring and Module Theory

Part of the book series: Trends in Mathematics ((TM))

Abstract

The aim of this expository paper is to discuss various aspects of the Hopkins-Levitzki Theorem (H-LT), including the Relative H-LT, the Absolute or Categorical H-LT, the Latticial H-LT, as well as the Krull dimension-like H-LT.
