In mathematics, ring theory is the study of rings, algebraic structures in which addition and multiplication are defined and have similar properties to those familiar from the integers.
The study of rings originated from the theory of polynomial rings and the theory of algebraic integers.
Examples of non-commutative rings are given by rings of square matrices or more generally by rings of endomorphisms of abelian groups or modules, and by monoid rings.

 Monoid: Definition and Links by Encyclopedian.com
For instance, it is perfectly possible to have a monoid in which exist two elements a and b and such that a*b = a holds even though b is not the identity element.
Such a monoid cannot be embedded in a group, because in the group we could multiply both sides with the inverse of a and would get that b = e, which isn't true.
It is possible to view categories as generalizations of monoids: the composition of morphism in a category shares all properties of a monoid operation except that not all pairs of morphisms may be composed.

The characteristic of a non-unital ring is defined as the least positive integer p such that a sum of p identical terms always vanishes (if there's no such p, then the ring is said to have zero characteristic).
The radical Rad(I) of an ideal I is the set of all ring elements which have at least one of their powers in I. The radical of an ideal is an ideal.

 Monoid
Such a monoid cannot be embedded in a group, because in the group we could multiply both sides with the inverse of a and would get that b = e, which isn't true.
A monoid (M,*) has the cancellation property (or is cancellative) if for all a, b and c in M, a*b = a*c always implies b = c and b*a = c*a always implies b = c.
It is possible to view categories as generalizations of monoids: the composition of morphism in a category shares all properties of a monoid operation except that not all pairs of morphisms may be composed.

-regular rings are characterized by the transitivity of perspectivity in the lattice of finitely-generated submodules of the sum of two copies of the ground ring, and also by the fact that a direct sum can be contracted on a finitely-generated projective module (see [4], [8]).
Every biregular ring with a unit is isomorphic to the ring of global sections with compact support of a sheaf of simple rings with a unit over a compact totally disconnected Hausdorff space, and any such ring of global sections is biregular (see [2]).
Regular rings were introduced for the coordinization of continuous geometries, biregular rings in connection with the study of functional representations of rings, and Baer (and Rickart) rings in the study of rings of operators.

 Adjoint functors
For example, an elementary question in ring theory is how to add a multiplicative identity to a ring that doesn't have one (the definition in this encyclopedia actually assumes one: see ring (mathematics) and glossary of ring theory).
This is the impredicative method: meaning that the ring we are trying to construct is one of the rings quantified over in 'all rings'.
Similarly, the group ring construction yields a functor from groups to rings, left adjoint to the functor that assigns to a given ring its group of units.

An abelian ring or commutative ring is a ring whose multiplication (second binary operation) is commutative.

 Birgit Reinert's Thesis
A Gröbner basis G is a set of polynomials such that every polynomial in the polynomial ring has a unique normal form with respect to reduction using the polynomials in G as rules (especially the polynomials in the ideal generated by G reduce to zero using G).
We prove that the word problem for semi-Thue systems is equivalent to a restricted version of the membership problem for free monoid rings and similarly that the word problem for group presentations is equivalent to a restricted version of the membership problem for free group rings.
Since monoid rings in general are not commutative, we are mainly interested in right ideals.

Given a finite set X, and a ring S, we can define the free S-algebra A generated by X. This can be seen either as the monoid algebra of the free monoid of words in X, or as all expressions in X and k, combined by addition and multiplication.

 1. Introduction
The usual polynomial ring can be viewed as a monoid ring where the monoid is a finitely generated free commutative monoid.
Another class of non-commutative rings where the elements can be represented by the usual polynomials and which allow the construction of finite Gröbner bases for arbitrary ideals are the so-called solvable rings, a class intermediate between commutative and general non-commutative polynomial rings.
In case the original reduction ring is a principal ideal ring, only special sets, namely of size two for the G-bases and of size one for the syzygy bases, have to be considered.

Sq87] there are finitely presented monoids with solvable word problem which have no finite convergent presentations and his examples give rise to finitely generated ideals in free monoid rings with solvable ideal membership problem which have no finite Gröbner bases.
