Abstract: Non-isomorphic direct decompositions of torsion-free abelian groups are reflected in their endomorphism ring decompositions which admit matrix representations. The set of possible direct decompositions of a special kind matrix rings into direct sums of one-sided indecomposable ideals is described. This leads to the combinatorial constructions of isomorphisms between non-commutative differently decomposable ring structures.

Keywords: torsion-free abelian groups, endomorphism rings, matrix representations.
