Question:

J(MatnR} = MatnJ(R). Here is an outline of a proof:

(a) If A is a left R-module, consider the elements of An = A ⊕ A ⊕· · · ⊕ A (n summands) as column vectors; then An is a left (MatnR)-module (under ordinary matrix multiplication).

(b) If A is a simple R-module, An is a simple (MatnR)-module.

(c) J(MatnR) ⊂ MatnJ(R).

(d) MatnJ(R) ⊂ J(MatnR).
