On a class of Noetherian algebras
Eric Jespers, Jan Okniński · Proceedings of the Royal Society of Edinburgh Section A Mathematics · 1999
A class of Noetherian semigroup algebrasK[S]is described. In particular, we show that, for any submonoidSof the semigroupMnof all monomialn × nmatrices over a polycyclic-by-finite groupG, K[S]is right Noetherian if and only ifSsatisfies the ascending chain condition on right ideals. This is then used to prove that every prime homomorphic image of a semigroup algebra of a finitely generated Malcev nilpotent semigroupSsatisfying the ascending chain condition on right ideals is left and right Noetherian.
