Abstract

We give a simple proof of a theorem by Andrunakievič and Rjabuhin which states that a reduced ring is a subdirect product of entire rings. Our proof makes no use of m-systems and is in some sense similar to the proof of the corresponding theorem in the commutative case due to Krull.A reduced ring is a ring without non-zero nilpotent elements. It is wellknown that if a reduced ring is commutative, then it is a subdirect product of integral domains [2]. This result has been generalized to arbitrary reduced rings [1]. The proof in the general case is somewhat complicated. We present a simple proposition which leads to a simple proof of the general case.
