Abstract
Under study are the relations between \( E \)-rings and quotient divisible abelian groups. We obtain a criterion for the quotient divisibility of the additive group of an \( E \)-ring and give a negative solution to the Bowshell and Schultz problem about the quasidecompositions of \( E \)-rings.
