The strong no loop conjecture states that a simple module of finite projective dimension over an artin algebra has no non-zero self-extension. The main result of this paper establishes this well known conjecture for finite dimensional…

We show that the Simple Loop Conjecture holds for any representation $\rho\colon\pi_1(S)\longrightarrow \text{PSL}(2,\,\mathbb R)$ that is discrete but not faithful. That is, we show the existence of a simple closed curve in the kernel of…

Extension conjecture states that if a simple module over an artin algebra has nonzero first self-extension group then it has nonzero i-th self-extension group for infinitely many positive integers i. It is shown by recollement of…

Assume $A$ is weakly symmetric, indecomposable, with radical cube zero and radical square non-zero. We show that such algebra of wild representation type does not have a non-projective module $M$ whose ext algebra is finite-dimensional.…

The Casas-Alvero conjecture predicts that every univariate polynomial over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero sharing a common factor with each of its Hasse-Schmidt derivatives is a power of a linear polynomial. The…

We prove the tame-wild dichotomy conjecture, due to D. Simson, for infinite dimensional algebras and coalgebras. The key part of the approach is proving new representation theoretic characterizations local finiteness. Among other, we show…

Let $A$ be a finite-dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field. We prove $A$ is a strongly derived unbounded algebra if and only if there exists an integer $m$, such that $C_m(\proj A)$, the category of all minimal projective…

In this paper we present an unexpected link between the Factorial Conjecture and Furter's Rigidity Conjecture. The Factorial Conjecture in dimension $m$ asserts that if a polynomial $f$ in $m$ variables $X_i$ over $\C$ is such that ${\cal…

In this short paper we prove that a finite dimensional algebra is hereditary if and only if there is no loop in its ordinary quiver and every $\tau$-tilting module is tilting.

We prove two results on some special generators of finite simple groups and use them to prove that every non-abelian finite simple group $S$ admits a non-congruence presentation (as conjectured in [CLT24]), and that if $S$ has a non-trivial…

The paper concerns Hochschild cohomology of a commutative algebra S, which is essentially of finite type over a commutative noetherian ring K and projective as a K-module, with coefficients in an S-module M. It is proved that vanishing of…

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 $S$.…

Let $A$ be a semiprime 2 and 3-torsion free non-commutative associative algebra. We show that the Lie algebra $\der(A)$ of (associative) derivations of $A$ is strongly non-degenerate, which is a strong form of semiprimeness for Lie…

Let n be a positive integer, and let R be a finitely presented (but not necessarily finite dimensional) associative algebra over a computable field. We examine algorithmic tests for deciding (1) if every n-dimensional representation of R is…

We study maximal almost rigid modules over a gentle algebra $A$. We prove that the number of indecomposable direct summands of every maximal almost rigid $A$-module is equal to the sum of the number of vertices and the number of arrows of…

We give examples of finite-dimensional algebras $A$ for which the silting objects in $K^b(\mbox{proj-}A)$ are not connected by any sequence of (possibly reducible) silting mutations. The argument is based on the fact that silting mutation…

In this paper it is proved that, when $Q$ is a quiver that admits some closure, for any algebraically closed field $K$ and any finite dimensional $K$-linear representation $\mathcal{X}$ of $Q$, if ${\rm Ext}^1_{KQ}(\mathcal{X},KQ)=0$ then…

We prove that any small enough neighborhood of a closed contact submanifold is always tight under a mild assumption on its normal bundle. The non-existence of $C^0$--small positive loops of contactomorphisms in general overtwisted manifolds…

Let A be a finite-dimensional algebra. If A is self-injective, then all modules are reflexive. Marczinzik recently has asked whether A has to be self-injective in case all the simple modules are reflexive. Here, we exhibit an 8-dimensional…

Let k be an algebraically closed field and A be a finite-dimensional associative basic k-algebra of the form A=kQ/I where Q is a quiver without oriented cycles or double arrows and I is an admissible ideal of kQ. We consider roots of the…
