Primitive ideal

Primitive ideal

In mathematics, a left primitive ideal in ring theory is the annihilator of a simple left module. A right primitive ideal is defined similarly. Note that (despite the name) left and right primitive ideals are always two-sided ideals.

The quotient of a ring by a primitive ideal is a primitive ring.
