Stable torsion and the spectrum of an FBN ring

Abstract

AbstractUsing results of Müller and Goldston and Mewborn we define a topology on Spec R which makes the standard presheaf construction a sheaf, and for which the stalks are semilocal classical localizations of R when R is FBN with enough clans. The main underlying concept is that of stable torsion, the lattice-theoretic properties of which are investigated
