We study quasi-quadratic modules in a pseudo-valuation domain $A$ whose strict units admit a square root. Let $\mathfrak X_R^N$ denote the set of quasi-quadratic modules in an $R$-module $N$, where $R$ is a commutative ring. It is known…

This paper gives insight into intriguing connections between two apparently unrelated theories: the theory of skein modules of 3-manifolds and the theory of representations of groups into special linear groups of 2 by 2 matrices. Let R be a…

Let G be a finite group acting linearly on the polynomial ring with invariant ring R. If the action is small, then a classical result of Auslander gives in dimension two a correspondence between linear representations of G and maximal…

Given an associative, not necessarily commutative, ring R with identity, a formal matrix calculus is introduced and developed for pairs of matrices over R. This calculus subsumes the theory of homogeneous systems of linear equations with…

Among the finitely generated modules over a Noetherian ring R, the semidualizing modules have been singled out due to their particularly nice duality properties. When R is a normal domain, we exhibit a natural inclusion of the set of…

We generalize the notion of and results on maximal proper quadratic modules from commutative unital rings to $\ast$-rings and discuss the relation of this generalization to recent developments in noncommutative real algebraic geometry. The…

The aim of this note is to understand under which conditions invertible modules over a commutative S-algebra in the sense of Elmendorf, Kriz, Mandell and May give rise to elements in the algebraic Picard group of invertible graded modules…

Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian ring. The $n$-semidualizing modules of $R$ are generalizations of its semidualizing modules. We will prove some basic properties of $n$-semidualizing modules. Our main result and example shows that the…

Let R be a commutative ring with unity, M be an unitary R-module and {\Gamma} be a simple graph. This research article is an interplay of combinatorial and algebraic properties of M . We show a combinatorial object completely determines an…

We develop a functorial framework for the ideal theory of commutative semirings using coherent frames and spectral spaces. Two central constructions-the radical ideal functor and the $k$-radical ideal functor-are shown to yield coherent…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with a collection of ideals $\{ N_1, N_2, \dots, N_{k-1}\}$ satisfying certain conditions, properties of the set of invertible quadratic residues of the ring $R$ are described in terms of properties of the set…

Let M and N be even-dimensional oriented real manifolds, and $u:M \to N$ be a smooth mapping. A pair of complex structures at M and N is called u-compatible if the mapping u is holomorphic with respect to these structures. The quotient of…

For a commutative ring $A$ we consider a related graph, $\Gamma(A)$, whose vertices are the unimodular rows of length $2$ up to multiplication by units. We prove that $\Gamma(A)$ is path-connected if and only if $A$ is a…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring, $\pi$ be a finite group, $R\pi$ be the group ring of $\pi$ over $R$. Theorem 1. If $R$ is a commutative artinian ring and $\pi$ is a finite group. Then the Cartan map $c:K_0(R\pi)\to G_0(R\pi)$ is injective.…

To a finite quadratic module, that is, a finite abelian group D together with a non-singular quadratic form Q:D --> Q/Z, it is possible to associate a representation of either the modular group, SL(2,Z), or its metaplectic cover, Mp(2,Z),…

We define pullback and separated presentations of modules over pullback rings, and, if the ring is a pullback of epimorphisms over a semisimple ring, an algorithm reducing such a presentation of a module to an $R$-diagram. The latter is the…

It is known that semi-magic square matrices form a 2-graded algebra or superalgebra with the even and odd subspaces under centre-point reflection symmetry as the two components. We show that other symmetries which have been studied for…
