Maximal left quotient rings and graded algebras

In 1956, Utumi introduced the notion of maximal left quotient ring for every ring without total right zero divisors. This notion generalizes the construction of a field of fractions of an integral domain. This maximal ring can be viewed as the ring where all types of quotient rings live in. We generalize this construction to the case of graded algebras, we study some of its properties and we obtain deeper results when we focus specifically on superalgebras. The work in progress is trying to obtain similar structure results to those of the non-graded case, i.e.: Gabriel's and Johnson's theorems.
