What is Rings: Definition and 437 Discussions

Fighting Network Rings, trademarked as RINGS, is a Japanese combat sport promotion that has lived three distinct periods: puroresu promotion from its inauguration to 1995, mixed martial arts promotion from 1995 to its 2002 disestablishment, and the revived mixed martial arts promotion from 2008 onward.
RINGS was founded by Akira Maeda on May 11, 1991, following the dissolution of Newborn UWF. At that time, Maeda and Mitsuya Nagai were the only two people to transfer from UWF, wrestlers such as Kiyoshi Tamura, Hiromitsu Kanehara and Kenichi Yamamoto would later also transfer from UWF International.

    Quotient modules and rings

    Let R be a local ring with maximal ideal J. Let M be a finitely generated R-module, and let V=M/JM. Then if \{x_1+JM,...,x_n+JM\} is a basis for V over R/J, then \{x_1, ... , x_n\} is a minimal set of generators for M. Proof Let N=\sum_{i=1}^n Rx_i. Since x_i + JM generate V=M/JM, we have...
