Abstract

In this article we prove a few interesting properties of just infinite algebras. Bartholdi (2006), defines a particular class of just infinite algebras and demonstrates various properties of these examples. One such property, which is tedious to prove for his specific examples, is primality. We prove here that, in fact, all just infinite algebras are prime. We then consider two corollaries of this theorem; one suggests a weaker definition of just infinite for finitely generated algebras and the other examines the specific case of just infinite algebras which also satisfy a polynomial identity.
Keywords: Just infinite algebras; Polynomial identity ring; Prime rings; Projectively simple
