Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $S$ a multiplicative subset of $R$. First, we introduce and study the $S$-projective dimensions and $S$-injective dimensions of $R$-modules, and then explore the $S$-global dimension…
Let $V$ be the set of real common solutions to $F = (f_1, \ldots, f_s)$ in $\mathbb{R}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ and $D$ be the maximum total degree of the $f_i$'s. We design an algorithm which on input $F$ computes the dimension of $V$. Letting…
Given subvarieties $X, Y$ of a complex algebraic variety $S$ of complementary dimension, must they intersect? When $S$ is projective space, this is a consequence of the classical B\'ezout theorem, and an analogue for simple abelian…
This paper establishes the existence of a finitely based finite semiring whose variety contains a continuum of subvarieties; such a variety is said to be of type \(2^{\aleph_0}\). Using the homomorphism theory of Kneser graphs, we prove…
This paper studies algebraic residual intersections in rings with Serre's condition \( S_{s} \). It demonstrates that residual intersections admit free approaches i.e. perfect subideal with the same radical. This fact leads to determining a…
In this work we approach the problem of determining which (compact) semialgebraic subsets of ${\mathbb R}^n$ are images under polynomial maps $f:{\mathbb R}^m\to{\mathbb R}^n$ of the closed unit ball $\overline{{\mathcal B}}_m$ centered at…
We study the functional equation $A\circ X=X\circ B$, where $A,$ $B$, and $X$ are polynomials over $\mathbb C$. Using previous results of the author about polynomials sharing preimages of compact sets, we show that for given $B$ its…
Let $f : X \to S$ be a family of smooth projective algebraic varieties over a smooth connected quasi-projective base $S$, and let $\mathbb{V} = R^{2k} f_{*} \mathbb{Z}(k)$ be the integral variation of Hodge structure coming from degree $2k$…
Let $U$ and $V$ be finite-dimensional vector spaces over an arbitrary field, and $\mathcal{S}$ be a subset of the space $\mathcal{L}(U,V)$ of all linear maps from $U$ to $V$. A map $F : \mathcal{S} \rightarrow V$ is called range-compatible…
We study Abhyankar valuations of excellent equicharacteristic local domains with an algebraically closed residue field. For zero dimensional valuations we prove that whenever the ring is complete and the semigroup of values taken by the…
We previously showed that the inverse limit of standard-graded polynomial rings with perfect coefficient field is a polynomial ring, in an uncountable number of variables. In this paper, we show that the same result holds with arbitrary…
Let $\mathrm{R}$ be a real closed field. We prove that for any fixed $d$, the equivariant rational cohomology groups of closed symmetric semi-algebraic subsets of $\mathrm{R}^k$ defined by polynomials of degrees bounded by $d$ vanishes in…
Given a polynomial function $f \colon \mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ and a unbounded basic closed semi-algebraic set $S \subset \mathbb{R}^n,$ in this paper we show that the conditions listed below are characterized exactly in terms…
A commutative ring R is said to be coverable if it is the union of its proper subrings and said to be finitely coverable if it is the union of a finite number of them. In the latter case, we denote by {\sigma}(R) the minimal number of…
Complexity problems associated with finite rings and finite semigroups, particularly semigroups of matrices over a field and the Rees matrix semigroups, are examined. Let M_nF be the ring of n x n matrices over the finite field F and let…
A ring R is said to be VNL if for any a in R, either a or 1-a is (von Neumann) regular. The class of VNL rings lies properly between the exchange rings and (von Neumann) regular rings. We characterize abelian VNL rings. We also characterize…
Given a finitely generated subgroup G of a ring R we provide a finite subset of G such that if each element of this set satisfies some cubic polynomial equation in one variable over the center Z of R then the subring generated by G has…
We show that a $d$-dimensional polyhedron $S$ in $\real^d$ can be represented by $d$-polynomial inequalities, that is, $S = \{x \in \real^d : p_0(x) \ge 0, >..., p_{d-1}(x) \ge 0 \}$, where $p_0,...,p_{d-1}$ are appropriate polynomials.…
Let $R$ and $S$ be commutative rings with identity, $f:R\to S$ a ring homomorphism and $J$ an ideal of $S$. Then the subring $R\bowtie^fJ:=\{(r,f(r)+j)\mid r\in R$ and $j\in J\}$ of $R\times S$ is called the amalgamation of $R$ with $S$…
