We show that, in general, over a regular integral noetherian affine scheme X of dimension at least 6, there exist Brauer classes on X for which the associated division algebras over the generic point have no Azumaya maximal orders over X.…

We study the nontrivial elements in the Brauer group of a bielliptic surface and show that they can be realized as Azumaya algebras with a simple structure at the generic point of the surface. We go on to study some properties of the…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring. An Azumaya coring consists of a couple $(S,\Cc)$, with $S$ a faithfully flat commutative $R$-algebra, and an $S$-coring $\Cc$ satisfying certain properties. If $S$ is faithfully projective, then the dual of…

The structure of the automorphism group of a simple TAI algebra is studied. In particular, we show that $\frac{\bar{\mrm{Inn}} (A)}{\bar{\mrm{Inn}}_{0} (A)}$ is isomorphic (as a topological group) to an inverse limit of discrete abelian…

In this work, we introduce a new class of algebras called skew-Brauer graph algebras, which generalize the well-known Brauer graph algebras. We establish that skew-Brauer graph algebras are symmetric and can be defined using a Brauer graph…

We attach to any commutative ring R a subgroup of the Brauer group of R, called the Brauer-Galois group of R. Its elements are the classes of the Azumaya R-algebras which can be represented, via Brauer equivalence, by a Galois extension of…

Let $A$ be an Azumaya algebra over a field. If $G$ is the group of automorphisms of $A$ and $X$ denotes a projective homogeneous variety under $G$, we construct in a very explicit way and under suitable hypotheses a bundle $\mathcal{V}$ on…

Brauer graph algebras form a classical class of symmetric algebras with well-structured combinatorial properties and geometric models. Recently, they have been generalized to biserial fractional Brauer graph algebras, which can be regarded…

We have previously shown that the isomorphism classes of orientable locally trivial fields of $C^*$-algebras over a compact metrizable space $X$ with fiber $D\otimes \mathbb{K}$, where $D$ is a strongly self-absorbing $C^*$-algebra, form an…

In 2017, Green and Schroll introduced a generalization of Brauer graph algebras which they call Brauer configuration algebras. In the present paper, we further generalize Brauer configuration algebras to fractional Brauer configuration…

Characterizing derived equivalences between algebras via combinatorial structures has recently become a popular topic. In this paper, we study admissible fractional Brauer graph algebras, a new subclass of self-injective special biserial…

We show that two well-studied classes of tame algebras coincide: namely, the class of symmetric special biserial algebras coincides with the class of Brauer graph algebras. We then explore the connection between gentle algebras and…

Extending a result of Schr\"oer on a Grothendieck question in the context of complex analytic spaces, we prove that the surjectivity of the Brauer map $\delta: Br(X) \rightarrow H_{\rm \'et}^2(X,\mathbb{G}_{m, X})_{\rm tor}$ for algebraic…

We study twisted vector bundles of infinite rank on gerbes, giving a new spin on Grothendieck's famous problem on the equality of the Brauer group and cohomological Brauer group. We show that the relaxed version of the question has an…

We classify Brauer graph algebras up to derived equivalence by showing that the set of derived invariants introduced by Antipov is complete. These algebras first appeared in representation theory of finite groups and can be defined for any…

Using methods from algebraic topology and group cohomology, I pursue Grothendieck's question on equality of geometric and cohomological Brauer groups in the context of complex-analytic spaces. The main result is that equality holds under…

Suppose $A$ is an Azumaya algebra over a ring $R$ and $\sigma$ is an involution of $A$ extending an order-$2$ automorphism $\lambda:R\to R$. We say $\sigma$ is extraordinary if there does not exist a Brauer-trivial Azumaya algebra…

For an Azumaya algebra $A$ which is free over its centre $R$, we prove that the $K$-theory of $A$ is isomorphic to $K$-theory of $R$ up to its rank torsion. We observe that a graded central simple algebra, graded by an abelian group, is a…

We define a Brauer group for differential graded algebras over differential graded graded-commutative or commutative base rings. Based on previous work we give an explicit classification of dg-fields, and compute the so-defined Brauer group…

A classic result of representation theory is Brauer's construction of a diagrammatical (geometrical) algebra whose matrix representation is a certain given matrix algebra, which is the commutating algebra of the enveloping algebra of the…
