We extend the construction of a spectral triple for k-Minkowski space, previously given for the two-dimensional case, to the general n-dimensional case. This takes into account the modular group naturally arising from the symmetries of the…
Let $(K, v)$ be a Henselian discrete valued field with a quasifinite residue field. This paper proves the existence of an algebraic extension $E/K$ satisfying the following: (i) $E$ has dimension dim$(E) \le 1$, i.e. the Brauer group Br$(E…
Let $k$ be a field and let $A$ be a finitely generated $k$-algebra. The algebra $A$ is said to be cancellative if whenever $B$ is another $k$-algebra with the property that $A[x]\cong B[x]$ then we necessarily have $A\cong B$. An important…
The $n$-dimensional quantum torus $\mathcal O_{\mathbf q}((F^\times)^n)$ is defined as the associative $F$-algebra generated by $x_1, \cdots, x_n$ together with their inverses satisfying the relations $x_ix_j = q_{ij}x_jx_i$, where $\mathbf…
Using ultraproduct techniques we define a nonstandard Minkowski dimension which exists for all bounded sets and which has the property that $\dim(A\times B)=\dim(A)+\dim(B).$ That is, our new dimension is product-summable. To illustrate our…
An extension of algebras is a homomorphism of algebras preserving identities. We use extensions of algebras to study the finitistic dimension conjecture over Artin algebras. Let $f: B \to A$ be an extension of Artin algebras. We denote by…
For a homomorphism f: A --> B of commutative rings, let D(A,B) denote Ker[Pic(A) --> Pic(B)]. Let k be a field and assume that A is a f.g. k-algebra. We prove a number of finiteness results for D(A,B). Here are four of them. 1: Suppose B is…
We develop the theory of ``branch algebras'', which are infinite-dimensional associative algebras that are isomorphic, up to taking subrings of finite codimension, to a matrix ring over themselves. The main examples come from groups acting…
In the paper the notion of truncating twisting function $\tau :X\to Q$ from a simplicial set $X$ to a cubical set $Q$ and the corresponding notion of twisted Cartesian product of these sets $X\times_{\tau}Q$ are introduced. The latter…
The Lichtenbaum-Quillen conjecture for smooth complex varieties states that algebraic and topological K-theory with finite coefficients become isomorphic in high degrees. We define the "Lichtenbaum-Quillen dimension" of a variety in terms…
We introduce what we call "alternative twisted tensor products" for not necessarily associative algebras, as a common generalization of several different constructions: the Cayley-Dickson process, the Clifford process and the twisted tensor…
We present some results on equivariant KK-theory in the context of tensor triangular geometry. More specifically, for G a finite group, we show that the spectrum of the tensor triangulated subcategory of KK^G generated by the tensor unit…
This is a study of twisted K-theory on a product space $T \times M$. The twisting comes from a decomposable cup product class which applies the 1-cohomology of $T$ and the 2-cohomology of $M$. In the case of a topological product, we give a…
Under mild assumptions, we characterise modules with projective resolutions of length n in the target category of filtrated K-theory over a finite topological space in terms of two conditions involving certain Tor-groups. We show that the…
Assume that $\mathcal{A}$ is a cochain DG polynomial algebra such that its underlying graded algebra $\mathcal{A}^{#}$ is a polynomial algebra generated by $n$ degree $1$ elements. We determine the DG Krull dimension, the global dimension,…
In this paper, twisted tensor product of DG algebras is studied and sufficient conditions for smoothness of such a product are given. It is shown that in the case of finite-dimensional DG algebras, applying this operation offers great…
We prove a result concerning formality of the pull-back of a fibration. Our approach is to use bar complexes in the category of commutative differential graded algebras. As an application, we generalize an old result of Baum and Smith.
We observe that there exists an associative finite dimensional $\mathbb{C}$-algebra $A$ of finite global dimension, such that the bounded derived category $D^b(A)$ of finite dimensional $A$-modules admits an admissible subcategory…
We study the tensor product of an associative and a nonassociative cyclic algebra. The condition for the tensor product to be a division algebra equals the classical one for the tensor product of two associative cyclic algebras by Albert or…
We use tilting modules to study the structure of the tensor product of two simple modules for the algebraic group $\SL_2$, in positive characteristic, obtaining a twisted tensor product theorem for its indecomposable direct summands.…
