Abstract:
Let
$R$ be a right Noetherian ring which is also an algebra over
$\mathbb{Q}$ (
$\mathbb{Q}$ the field of rational numbers). Let
$\sigma$ be an automorphism of R and
$\delta$ a
$\sigma$-derivation of
$R$. Let further
$\sigma$ be such that
$a\sigma(a)\in N(R)$ implies that
$a\in N(R)$ for
$a\in R$, where
$N(R)$ is the set of nilpotent elements of
$R$. In this paper we study the associated prime ideals of Ore extension
$R[x;\sigma,\delta]$ and we prove the following in this direction:
Let
$R$ be a semiprime right Noetherian ring which is also an algebra over
$\mathbb{Q}$. Let
$\sigma$ and
$\delta$ be as above. Then
$P$ is an associated prime ideal of
$R[x;\sigma,\delta]$ (viewed as a right module over itself) if and only if there exists ban associated prime ideal
$U$ of
$R$ with
$\sigma(U)=U$ and
$\delta(U)\subseteq U$ and
$P=U[x;\sigma,\delta]$.
We also prove that if
$R$ be a right Noetherian ring which is also an algebra over
$\mathbb{Q}$,
$\sigma$ and
$\delta$ as usual such that
$\sigma(\delta(a))=\delta(\sigma(a))$ for all
$a\in R$ and
$\sigma(U)=U$ for all associated prime ideals
$U$ of
$R$ (viewed as a right module over itself), then
$P$ is an associated prime
ideal of
$R[x;\sigma,\delta]$ (viewed as a right module over itself) if and only if there exists an associated prime ideal
$U$ of
$R$ such that
$(P\cap R)[x;\sigma,\delta]=P$ and
$P\cap R=U$.
