Noetherian — In mathematics, the adjective Noetherian is used to describe objects that satisfy an ascending or descending chain condition on certain kinds of subobjects; in particular, Noetherian group, a group that satisfies the ascending chain condition on… … Wikipedia
Noetherian ring — In mathematics, more specifically in the area of modern algebra known as ring theory, a Noetherian ring, named after Emmy Noether, is a ring in which every non empty set of ideals has a maximal element. Equivalently, a ring is Noetherian if it… … Wikipedia
Noetherian module — In abstract algebra, an Noetherian module is a module that satisfies the ascending chain condition on its submodules, where the submodules are partially ordered by inclusion. Historically, Hilbert was the first mathematician to work with the… … Wikipedia
Noetherian topological space — In mathematics, a Noetherian topological space is a topological space in which closed subsets satisfy the descending chain condition. Equivalently, we could say that the open subsets satisfy the ascending chain condition, since they are the… … Wikipedia

Commutative ring — In ring theory, a branch of abstract algebra, a commutative ring is a ring in which the multiplication operation is commutative. The study of commutative rings is called commutative algebra. Some specific kinds of commutative rings are given with … Wikipedia
Finitely-generated module — In mathematics, a finitely generated module is a module that has a finite generating set. A finitely generated R module also may be called a finite R module or finite over R.[1] Related concepts include finitely cogenerated modules, finitely… … Wikipedia
Subgroup series — In mathematics, a subgroup series is a chain of subgroups: Subgroup series can simplify the study of a group to the study of simpler subgroups and their relations, and several subgroup series can be invariantly defined and are important… … Wikipedia

Lasker–Noether theorem — In mathematics, the Lasker–Noether theorem states that every Noetherian ring is a Lasker ring, which means that every ideal can be written as an intersection of finitely many primary ideals (which are related to, but not quite the same as, powers … Wikipedia
