In the preprint arXiv:2511.07900 we proved that there exists a localizing ring $A_M$ for $A$ an associative ring with unit, and $M=\oplus_{i=1}^rM_i$ a direct sum of $r\geq 1$ simple right $A$-modules. For a homomorphism of associative…

We characterize the Zariski topologies over an algebraically closed field in terms of general dimension-theoretic properties. Some applications are given to complex manifold and to strongly minimal sets.

We consider properties and applications of a new topology, called the Zariski topology, on the space ${\rm SStar}(A)$ of all the semistar operations on an integral domain $A$. We prove that the set of all overrings of $A$, endowed with the…

In this article, a new and natural topology on the prime spectrum is established which behaves completely as the dual of the Zariski topology. It is called the flat topology. The basic and also some sophisticated properties of the flat…

The purpose of this paper is to introduce a Zariski-like topology on the spectrum of all proper ideals of a ring. We show that the space is T_0, quasi-compact, and every irreducible closed subset has a unique generic point. Furthermore,…

In [TV], Bertrand To\"en and Michel Vaqui\'e define a scheme theory for a closed monoidal category $(\mathcal{C},\otimes,1)$. One of the key ingredients of this theory is the definition of a Zariski topology on the category of commutative…

Given a $K$-vector space $V$, let $\sigma(V,K)$ denote the covering number, i.e. the smallest (cardinal) number of proper subspaces whose union covers $V$. Analogously, define $\sigma(M,R)$ for a module $M$ over a unital commutative ring…

We construct a topology on a given algebraically closed field with a distinguished subfield which is also algebraically closed. This topology is finer than Zariski topology and it captures the sets definable in the pair of algebraically…

In this paper we study the properties of the finite topology on the dual of a module over an arbitrary ring. We aim to give conditions when certain properties of the field case are can be still found here. Investigating the correspondence…

In this paper, we develop some foundations for a theory of algebraic varieties of congruences on commutative semirings. By studying the structure of congruences, firstly, we show that the spectrum $ \text{Spec}^{c}(A) $ consisting of prime…

In this article, we will study prime spectrum of Krasner hyperrings and Zariski topology on them, which play an important role in algebraic geometry. Then some results about the relationship between the topological properties of Spec(R) and…

Let R be a commutative ring with unity and M be an R-module. In this study, we construct the \tilde{Spec}(M) topology using the prime spectrum of module M and multiplicatively closed subsets of R with the closed sets \tilde{V}(S)={P \in…

Let R be a commutative ring with identity and M be an R-module. The purpose of this paper is to introduced the dual notion of z-submodules of M and some of extensions. Moreover, we investigate some properties of these classes of modules…

We show that the prime spectrum of the complete integral closure $D^\ast$ of a Pr\"ufer domain $D$ is completely determined by the Zariski topology on the spectrum $\mathrm{Spec}(D)$ of $D$.

Two arrangements with the same combinatorial intersection lattice but whose complements have different fundamental groups are called a Zariski pair. This work finds that there are at most nine such pairs amongst all ten line arrangements…

We consider the Zariski space of all places of an algebraic function field $F|K$ of arbitrary characteristic and investigate its structure by means of its patch topology. We show that certain sets of places with nice properties (e.g., prime…

We establish an analogue of Pontryagin duality for modules over compact discrete valuation rings $R$. Namely, we define the dual of a topological $R$ module to be its continuous $R$-module homomorphisms into $K/R$, the quotient module of…

Let $F$ be a field, let $D$ be a subring of $F$, and let ${\mathfrak{X}}$ be the Zariski-Riemann space of valuation rings containing $D$ and having quotient field $F$. We consider the Zariski, inverse and patch topologies on…

This note gives a unifying characterization and exposition of strongly irreducible elements and their duals in lattices. The interest in the study of strong irreducibility stems from commutative ring theory, while the dual concept of strong…

We revisit the classical constructions of tensor-triangular geometry in the setting of stably symmetric monoidal idempotent-complete $\infty$-categories, henceforth referred to as 2-rings. In this setting, we produce a Zariski topology, a…
