Abstract
A ring R is of weak global dimension at most one if all submodules of flat R-modules are flat. A ring R is said to be arithmetical (resp., right distributive or left distributive) if the lattice of two-sided ideals (resp., right ideals or left ideals) of R is distributive. Jensen has proved earlier that a commutative ring R is a ring of weak global dimension at most one if and only if R is an arithmetical semiprime ring. A ring R is said to be centrally essential if either R is commutative or, for every noncentral element x∈R, there exist two nonzero central elements y,z∈R with xy=z. In Theorem 2 of our paper, we prove that a centrally essential ring R is of weak global dimension at most one if and only is R is a right or left distributive semiprime ring. We give examples that Theorem 2 is not true for arbitrary rings.
