In this paper all rings are commutative. We prove some new results on flat epimorphisms of rings and pointwise localizations. Especially among them, it is proved that a ring $R$ is an absolutely flat (von-Neumann regular) ring if and only…

We prove that every transitive and non minimal semigroup with dense minimal points is sensitive. When the system is almost open, we obtain a generalization of this result.

In a unitary ring with involution, we prove that each element has at most one weak group inverse if and only if each idempotent element has a unique weak group inverse. Furthermore, we define the $m$-weak group inverse and show some…

It was proved in [3] that every h-divisible modules admits an strongly flat cover over all integral domains; and every divisible module over an integral domain R admits a strongly flat cover if and only if R is a Matlis domain. In this…

Let A be an idempotent algebra on a 3-element domain D that omits a G-set for a factor. Suppose A is not \alpha\beta-projective (for some alpha, beta subsets of D) and is not collapsible. It follows that A is switchable. We prove that, for…

Let $G$ be a finite cyclic group. Every sequence $S$ over $G$ can be written in the form $S=(n_1g)\cdot...\cdot(n_lg)$ where $g\in G$ and $n_1,\cdots,n_l\in[1,{\hbox{\rm ord}}(g)]$, and the index $\ind S$ of $S$ is defined to be the minimum…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unity and let $X$ be an indeterminate over $R$. The \textit{Anderson ring} of $R$ is defined as the quotient ring of the polynomial ring $R[X]$ by the set of polynomials that evaluate to $1$ at $0$.…

This article concerns the MP inverse of the differences and the products of projections in a ring $R$ with involution. Some equivalent conditions are obtained. As applications, the MP invertibility of the commutator $pq-qp$ and the…

An example is constructed of a local ring and a module of finite type and finite projective dimension over that ring such that the module is not rigid. This shows that the rigidity conjecture is false.

We give a short and elementary proof of a theorem of Procesi, Schacher and (independently) Gondard, Ribenboim that generalizes a famous result of Artin. Let $A$ be an $n \times n$ symmetric matrix with entries in the polynomial ring…

This paper is a continuation of [2], where we complete our partial proof of the Deser-Schwimmer conjecture on the structure of ``global conformal invariants''. Our theorem deals with such invariants P(g^n) that locally depend only on the…

By making use of arithmetic information inequalities, we give a strong quantitative bound for the discretised ring theorem. In particular, we show that if $A \subset [1,2]$ is a $(\delta,\sigma)$-set, with $|A| = \delta^{-\sigma},$ then…

Miyanishi proved that the ring of invariants of any $\mathbb{G}_a$ action on $\mathbb{A}^3$ is $\mathbb{A}^2$, when the field $k$ has zero characteristic. However, it is not known if this result holds when $k$ has positive characteristic.…

Let $A$ be a unital $C^*$-algebra generated by some separable operator system $S$. More than a decade ago, Arveson conjectured that $S$ is hyperrigid in $A$ if all irreducible representations of $A$ are boundary representations for $S$.…

By a [$K$-]approximate subring of a ring we mean an additively symmetric subset $X$ such that $X \cdot X \cup (X + X)$ is covered by finitely many [resp.\ $K$] additive translates of $X$. We prove a structure theorem for finite approximate…

We investigate equidecomposability in the ring of polygons with sides restricted to given directions and using only translations. Extending classical results of Dehn and Hadwiger, we prove that equidecomposability in these rings is…

Let $R\subset A$ be a Frobenius extension of rings. We prove that: (1) for any left $A$-module $M$, $_{A}M$ is Gorenstein projective (injective) if and only if the underlying left $R$-module $_{R}M$ is Gorenstein projective (injective). (2)…

Let R be a commutative ring with unity and a let A be a not necessarily commutative R-algebra which is free as an R-module. If I is an ideal in A, one can ask when A/I is also free as an R-module. We show that if A has an admissible system…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring. Roughly speaking, we prove that an $R$-module $M$ is flat iff it is a direct limit of $R$-module affine algebraic varieties, and $M$ is a flat Mittag-Leffler module iff it is the union of its $R$-submodule…

This is the first in a series of papers where we prove a conjecture of Deser and Schwimmer regarding the algebraic structure of ``global confor- mal invariants"; these are defined to be conformally invariant integrals of geometric scalars.…
