 Digital Sum   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The digital sum in base b of a set of natural numbers is calculated as follows: express each of the numbers in base b, then take the sum of corresponding digits and discard all carry overs.
The digital sum in base b is an associative and commutative operation on the natural numbers; it has 0 as neutral element and every natural number has an inverse element under this operation.
The natural numbers together with the base-b digital sum thus form an abelian group; this group is isomorphic to the direct sum of a countable number of copies of Z/bZ.

 Characterizations of semisimple modules   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
E is the direct sum of a family of simple submodules.
Every submodule F of E is a ``direct summand'', that is, has a ``complementary'' submodule F' in E such that E is the direct sum of F and F'.
Then S' is simple, since the direct sum of any submodule with M is a submodule of Rv containing M and thus equal to either M (when the submodule is {0}) or Rv (when it is all of S').

We show that a direct sum operator does not depend in a straightforward manner on the separate operators involved.
That is, on having a set of self-adjoint operators giving a direct sum operator, we show how the spectral representation for this operator depends on the spectral representations for the individual operators (the coordinate operators) involved in forming this sum operator.
In particular it is shown that this problem is not immediately solved by taking a direct sum of the spectral properties of the coordinate operators.

Direct recently spoke with Saul Gitlin, executive vice president of strategic marketing services/new business for New York-based agency Kang & Lee, on the potential of this market.
Gitlin received a bachelor's degree in Asian studies with a focus on Chinese at Cornell, and in 1982 was one of the first three Cornell undergraduates to spend a year as an exchange student in the People's Republic of China.
The point of entry for most of these marketers has been to build a presence in the Asian mass media, which is very high profile in some areas of the country and very cost-efficient, because of the lost cost of insertion in print and broadcast.

 A.D. Bell: Abstract   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
In this paper we study the ideal structure of the direct limit and direct sum (with a special multiplication) of a directed system of rings; this enables us to give descriptions of the prime ideals and radicals of semigroup rings and semigroup-graded rings.
We show that the ideals in the direct limit correspond to certain families of ideals from the original rings, with prime ideals corresponding to ``prime'' families.
We then assume the indexing set is a semigroup $\Omega$ with preorder defined by $\alpha\lt\beta$ if $\beta$ is in the ideal generated by $\alpha$, and we use the direct sum to construct an $\Omega$\!-graded ring; this construction generalizes the concept of a strong supplementary semilattice sum of rings.

We give here a necessary and sufficient condition for an idempotent semimodule to be the direct sum of two subsemimodules.
We introduce the semi-direct sum of semilattices, extend it to idempotent semimodules, and then use the concepts of torsion, Boolean, and semi-Boolean semimodules, to show how a general semimodule over an idempotent semiring splits into a semi-direct sum of a free, a Booelan, a semi-Boolean and a torsion semimodule.
