Given a subdirectly irreducible *-regular ring R, we show that R is a homomorphic image of a regular *-subring of an ultraproduct of the (simple) eRe, e in the minimal ideal of R; moreover, R (with unit) is directly finite if all eRe are unit-regular. Finally, unit-regularity is shown for every member of the variety generated by artinian *-regular rings (endowed with unit and pseudo-inversion).

The kernel relation $K$ on the lattice $mathcal{L}(mathcal{CR})$ of varieties of completely regular semigroups has been a central component in many investigations into the structure of $mathcal{L}(mathcal{CR})$. However, apart from the $K$-class of the trivial variety, which is just the lattice of varieties of bands, the detailed structure of kernel classes has remained a mystery until recently. Kadourek [RK2] has shown that for two large classes of subvarieties of $mathcal{CR}$ their kernel classes are singletons. Elsewhere (see [RK1], [RK2], [RK3]) we have provided a detailed analysis of the kernel classes of varieties of abelian groups. Here we study more general kernel classes. We begin with a careful development of the concept of duality in the lattice of varieties of completely regular semigroups and then show that the kernel classes of many varieties, including many self-dual varieties, of completely regular semigroups contain multiple copies of the lattice of varieties of bands as sublattices.
Several complete congruences on the lattice L(CR) of varieties of completely regular semi- groups have been fundamental to studies of the structure of L(CR). These are the kernel relation K , the left trace relation Tl , the right trace relation Tr and their intersections KcapTl,Kcap Tr . However, with the exception of the lattice of all band varieties which happens to coincide with the kernel class of the trivial variety, almost nothing is known about the internal structure of individual K-classes beyond the fact that they are intervals in L(CR). Here we present a number of general results that are pertinent to the study of K -classes. This includes a variation of the renowned Polak Theorem and its relationship to the complete retraction V -> V cap B , where B denotes the variety of bands. These results are then applied, here and in a sequel, to the detailed analysis of certain families of K -classes. The paper concludes with results hinting at the complexity of K -classes in general, such as that the classes of relation K/Kl may have the cardinality of the continuum.
We show that a von Neumann regular ring with involution is directly finite provided that it admits a representation as a ring of endomorphisms (the involution given by taking adjoints) of a vector space endowed with a non-degenerate orthosymmetric sesquilinear form.
We show that a subdirectly irreducible *-regular ring admits a representation within some inner product space provided so does its ortholattice of projections.
We survey recent progress on the realization problem for von Neumann regular rings, which asks whether every countable conical refinement monoid can be realized as the monoid of isoclasses of finitely generated projective right $R$-modules over a von Neumann regular ring $R$.
