Abstract
LetR be ring strongly graded by an abelian groupG of finite torsion-free rank. Lete be the identity ofG, andR e the component of degreee ofR. AssumeR e is a Jacobson ring. We prove that graded subrings ofR are again Jacobson rings if eitherR e is a left Noetherian ring orR is a group ring. In particular we generalise Goldie and Michlers’s result on Jacobson polycyclic group rings, and Gilmer’s result on Jacobson commutative semigroup rings of finite torsion-free rank.
