Let $R = k[x_1,\ldots, x_d]$ denote a standard graded polynomial ring over an algebraically closed field $k$, and let $I \subset R$ be a perfect ideal of codimension $2$ with an $n\times (n-1)$ linear presentation matrix $\phi$. We prove an…
We show that in certain Pr\"ufer domains, each nonzero ideal $I$ can be factored as $I=I^v \Pi$, where $I^v$ is the divisorial closure of $I$ and $\Pi$ is a product of maximal ideals. This is always possible when the Pr\"ufer domain is…
A well known result of B. Mazur gives a lower bound for the Krull dimension of the universal deformation ring associated to an absolutely irreducible residual representation in terms of the group cohomology of the adjoint representation.…
Let $D$ be a principal ideal domain and $R(D) = \{\begin{pmatrix} a & b 0 & a \end{pmatrix} \mid a, b \in D\}$ be its self-idealization. It is known that $R(D)$ is a commutative noetherian ring with identity, and hence $R(D)$ is atomic…
In this article, we consider tensor products of unitary representations by irreducible non-unitary finite dimensional representations of topological groups to define a property that is a twisting of Kazhdan's Property (T). We use the…
We define and study two generalizations of the Krull dimension for rings, which can assume cardinal number values of arbitrary size. The first, which we call the "cardinal Krull dimension," is the supremum of the cardinalities of chains of…
The paper consists of two parts. The first part introduces the representation ring for the family of compact unitary groups U(1), U(2),.... This novel object is a commutative graded algebra R with infinite-dimensional homogeneous…
Call a semistar operation $\ast$ on the polynomial domain $D[X]$ an extension (respectively, a strict extension) of a semistar operation $\star$ defined on an integral domain $D$, with quotient field $K$, if $E^\star = (E[X])^{\ast}\cap K$…
A class of integer-valued functions defined on the set of ideals of an integral domain $R$ is investigated. We show that this class of functions, which we call ideal valuations, are in one-to-one correspondence with countable descending…
The notion of permutative representation is generalized to the $2$-adic ring $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{Q}_{2}$. Permutative representations of $\mathcal{Q}_2$ are then investigated with a particular focus on the inclusion of the Cuntz algebra…
We demonstrate a class of local (Noetherian) unique factorization domains (UFDs) that are noncatenary at infinitely many places. In particular, if $A$ is in our class of UFDs, then the prime spectrum of $A$ contains infinitely many disjoint…
It was pointed out in my last paper that there are rings whose real closure * are not unique. In [4] we also discussed some example of rings by which there is a unique real closure * (mainly the real closed rings). Now we want to determine…
A unitary representation of a, possibly infinite dimensional, Lie group $G$ is called semibounded if the corresponding operators $i\dd\pi(x)$ from the derived representation are uniformly bounded from above on some non-empty open subset of…
An integral domain is atomic if every nonzero nonunit factors into irreducibles. Let $R$ be an integral domain. We say that $R$ is a bounded factorization domain if it is atomic and for every nonzero nonunit $x \in R$, there is a positive…
Using polynomial evaluation, we give some useful criteria to answer questions about divisibility of polynomials. This allows us to develop interesting results concerning the prime elements in the domain of coefficients. In particular, it is…
We reobtain and often refine prior criteria due to Kaplansky, McGovern, Roitman, Shchedryk, Wiegand, and Zabavsky--Bilavska and obtain new criteria for a Hermite ring to be an \textsl{EDR}. We mention three criteria: (1) a Hermite ring $R$…
We say that a commutative ring R satisfies the restricted minimum (RM) condition if for all essential ideals I in R, factor R/I is an Artinian ring. We will focus on Noetherian reduced rings because in this setting known results for RM…
Given a stable semistar operation of finite type $\star$ on an integral domain $D$, we show that it is possible to define in a canonical way a stable semistar operation of finite type $[\star]$ on the polynomial ring $D[X]$, such that $D$…
We define a family of the braid group representations via the action of the $R$-matrix (of the quasitriangular extension) of the restricted quantum $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$ on a tensor power of a simple projective module. This family is an…
Let $D$ be a domain and let $S$ be a torsion-free monoid whose quotient group satisfies the ascending chain condition on cyclic subgroups. We give a characterization of when the monoid algebra $D[S]$ is weakly Krull. As corollaries, we…
