Talk:Morita equivalence

Latest comment: 14 years ago by Rschwieb in topic "Further Directions" section needs editing

There are notions of morita equivalence in geometric and analytic situations as well that perhaps merit inclusion into this article.

From the text, "However, Morita equivalence is not equivalent to isomorphism. It is possible, but extremely difficult, to distinguish between non-isomorphic but Morita equivalent rings. One important special case where Morita equivalence implies isomorphism is the case of commutative rings."

Added for fun, it isn't so hard, two rings are Morita Equivelant if and only if their countable column finite matrices are isomorphic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.255.44.186 (talk) 00:59, 26 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Generalization of Artin-Wedderburn?

edit

Notice that this generalizes the classification of simple artinian rings given by Artin–Wedderburn theory.

What?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Darij (talkcontribs) 21:25, 24 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

"Further Directions" section needs editing

edit

The "Further directions" is a little rambling and unclear. Also, "Further studies" might be a better title for it. Can someone clarify what the main points of the original author were?Rschwieb (talk) 06:06, 3 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
