Prime ideals | Ideals (ring theory) | Ring theory
In mathematics, more specifically in ring theory, a maximal ideal is an ideal that is maximal (with respect to set inclusion) amongst all proper ideals. In other words, I is a maximal ideal of a ring R if there are no other ideals contained between I and R. Maximal ideals are important because the quotients of rings by maximal ideals are simple rings, and in the special case of unital commutative rings they are also fields. In noncommutative ring theory, a maximal right ideal is defined analogously as being a maximal element in the poset of proper right ideals, and similarly, a maximal left ideal is defined to be a maximal element of the poset of proper left ideals. Since a one sided maximal ideal A is not necessarily two-sided, the quotient R/A is not necessarily a ring, but it is a simple module over R. If R has a unique maximal right ideal, then R is known as a local ring, and the maximal right ideal is also the unique maximal left and unique maximal two-sided ideal of the ring, and is in fact the Jacobson radical J(R). It is possible for a ring to have a unique maximal two-sided ideal and yet lack unique maximal one sided ideals: for example, in the ring of 2 by 2 square matrices over a field, the zero ideal is a maximal two-sided ideal, but there are many maximal right ideals.

Abstract Algebra | Maximal and prime ideals.
We prove some classic results involving maximal and prime ideals. Specifically we prove the an ideal P is prime iff R/P is an integral domain. Further, we prove that an ideal M is maximal iff R/M is a field. http://www.michael-penn.net https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Michael_Penn5 ht

Proof: Prime Ideal iff R/P is Integral Domain; Maximal iff R/M is Field
A very useful theorem in ring theory is the theorem that an ideal P is prime if and only if the quotient R/P is an integral domain (ID). Similarly, an ideal M is maximal if and only if R/M is a field. In this video, we prove both of these statements! Ring & Module Theory playlist: https:/

Proof: Prime Ideals are Maximal in a PID
In a principal ideal domain, if an ideal is a prime ideal, that implies it is a maximal ideal, as long as it is not just the zero ideal. Here we give a straightforward explanation of this theorem from ring theory! Ring & Module Theory playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLug5Z
