A semidualizing module is a generalization of Grothendieck's dualizing module. For a local Cohen-Macaulay ring $R$, the ring itself and its canonical module are always realized as (trivial) semidualizing modules. Reasonably, one might…

A ring R is called an E-ring if the canonical homomorphism from R to the endomorphism ring End(R_Z) of the additive group R_Z, taking any r in R to the endomorphism left multiplication by r turns out to be an isomorphism of rings. In this…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $M$ a unitary $R$-module. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the concept of semi-$n$-submodules as an extension of semi $n$-ideals and $n$-submodules. A proper submodule $N$ of $M$ is…

A proper ideal $I$ in a commutative ring with unity is called a $z^\circ$-ideal if for each $a$ in $I$, the intersection of all minimal prime ideals in $R$ which contain $a$ is contained in $I$. For any totally ordered field $F$ and a…

We develop a general ring theory in the o-minimal setting culminating in a description of all the definable rings in an arbitrary o-minimal structure. We show that every definably connected ring with non-trivial multiplication defines an…

For several semirings S, two weighted finite automata with multiplicities in S are equivalent if and only if they can be connected by a chain of simulations. Such a semiring S is called "proper". It is known that the Boolean semiring, the…

Let $R$ be a local principal ideal ring of length two, for example, the ring $R=\Z/p^2\Z$ with $p$ prime. In this paper we develop a theory of normal forms for similarity classes in the matrix rings $M_n(R)$ by interpreting them in terms of…

An $R$-module $M$ is called virtually uniserial if for every finitely generated submodule $0 \neq K \subseteq M$, $K/$Rad$(K)$ is virtually simple. In this paper, we generalize virtually uniserial modules by dropping the virtually simple…

Let $R$ be a maximal subring of a ring $T$, and $(R:T)$, $(R:T)_l$ and $(R:T)_r$ denote the greatest ideal, left ideal and right ideal of $T$ which are contained in $R$, respectively. It is shown that $(R:T)_l$ and $(R:T)_r$ are prime…

We show that high Veronese subrings of any commutative graded ring have a Grobner basis with all relations of degree 2. (The d-th Veronese subring of a ring A_0 + A_1 + A_2 + ... is the ring A_0 + A_d + A_{2d} + ...; ``high'' means we take…

A ring $R$ is a UU ring if every unit is unipotent, or equivalently if every unit is a sum of a nilpotent and an idempotent that commute. These rings have been investigated in C\u{a}lug\u{a}reanu \cite{C} and in Danchev and Lam \cite{DL}.…

Let $R$ be a ring and $S$ a multiplicative subset of $R$. Then $R$ is called a uniformly $S$-Noetherian ($u$-$S$-Noetherian for abbreviation) ring provided there exists an element $s\in S$ such that for any ideal $I$ of $R$, $sI \subseteq…

This paper introduces a class of rings called left nil zero semicommutative rings ( LNZS rings ), wherein a ring R is said to be LNZS if the left annihilator of every nilpotent element of R is an ideal of R. It is observed that reduced…

In sharp contrast to the Abrams-Rangaswamy Theorem that the only von Neumann regular Leavitt path algebras are exactly those associated to acyclic graphs, here we prove that the Leavitt path algebra of any arbitrary graph is a graded von…

Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian ring and $f_{1}, ..., f_{r} \in R$. In this article we give (cf. the Theorem in \S2) a criterion for $f_{1}, ..., f_{r}$ to be regular sequence for a finitely generated module over $R$ which strengthens…

Let $ L((T^{-1}))$ be the space of (inverse) Laurent serieswith coefficients in some field $L$. It has a standard degree map and the induced topology. With its usual addition and a new product on this space which is continuous and preserves…

Let B be a ring and $A=B[X,Y]/(aX^2+bXY+cY^2-1)$ where $a,b,c\in B$. We study the smoothness of A over B, and the regularity of B when B is a ring of algebraic integers.

We study noncommutative rings whose proper subrings all satisfy the same chain condition. We show that if every proper subring of a ring $R$ is right Noetherian, then $R$ is either right Noetherian or the trivial extension of $\mathbb{Z}$…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $H$ a normal subgroup of prime index $p$. Let $V$ be an irreducible ${\mathbb F}H$-module and $U$ a quotient of the induced ${\mathbb F}G$-module $V\kern-3pt\uparrow$. We describe the structure of $U$, which is…

We consider three types of rings of supersymmetric polynomials: polynomial ones $\Lambda_{m,n}$, partially polynomial $\Lambda_{m,n}^{+y}$ and Laurent supersymmetric rings $\Lambda_{m,n}^{\pm}$. For each type of rings we give their…
