Fix a field $k$ of characteristic zero. If $a_1, ..., a_n$ ($n>2$) are positive integers, the integral domain $B = k[X_1, ..., X_n] / ( X_1^{a_1} + ... + X_n^{a_n} )$ is called a Pham-Brieskorn ring. It is conjectured that if $a_i > 1$ for…

Let $R$ be an associative algebra over a field $K$ generated by a vector subspace $V$. The polynomial $f(x_1,\ldots,x_n)$ of the free associative algebra $K\langle x_1,x_2,\ldots\rangle$ is a weak polynomial identity for the pair $(R,V)$ if…

{Generalizing the notion of nil cleanness from \cite{D13}, in parallel to \cite{DM14}, we define the concept of {\it weak nil cleanness} for an arbitrary ring. Its comprehensive study in different ways is provided as well. A decomposition…

In this paper, we study the dependence of the weak Lefschetz property of algebras defined by a special class of monomials ideals in a polynomial ring with coefficient in a field, to the characteristic of the base field.

In this paper, we introduce a new algebraic type of `convexoid rings', and we give the definition of (weak) convexoid schemes, which share similar properties with ordinary schemes. As a result, we give a purely-algebraic construction of the…

We study the class of rings $R$ with the property that for $x\in R$ at least one of the elements $x$ and $1+x$ are tripotent.

The notion of weakly Laskerian modules was introduced recently by the authors. Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring with identity, $\fa$ an ideal of $R$, and $M$ a weakly Laskerian module. It is shown that if $\fa$ is principal, then…

We study when the property that a field is dense in its real and p-adic closures is elementary in the language of rings and deduce that all models of the theory of algebraic fields have this property.

First, an example of a 2-dependent group without a minimal subgroup of bounded index is given. Second, all infinite n-dependent fields are shown to be Artin-Schreier closed. Furthermore, the theory of any non separably closed PAC field has…

Weak similarities form a special class of mappings between semimetric spaces. Two semimetric spaces $X$ and $Y$ are weakly similar if there exists a weak similarity $\Phi\colon X\to Y$. We find a structural characteristic of finite…

Let $(R, \mf, k_R)$ be regular local $k$-algebra satisfying the weak Jacobian criterion, such that $k_R/k$ is an algebraic field extension. Let $D_R$ be the ring of $k$-linear differential operators of $R$. We give an explicit decomposition…

Weakly Schreier split extensions are a reasonably large, yet well-understood class of monoid extensions, which generalise some aspects of split extensions of groups. This short note provides a way to define and study similar classes of…

A topological group is locally pseudocompact if it contains a non-empty open set with pseudocompact closure. In this note, we prove that if G is a group with the property that every closed subgroup of G is locally pseudocompact, then G_0 is…

We introduce "weakly chained spaces", which need not be locally connected or path connected, but for which one has a reasonable notion of generalized fundamental group and associated generalized universal cover. We show that in the compact…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic and G a simple algebraic group defined over k. Under the assumption that the characteristic is a good prime for G, we determine a maximal G-stable subvariety U' of the…

We characterize the diagonalizable subalgebras of End(V), the full ring of linear operators on a vector space V over a field, in a manner that directly generalizes the classical theory of diagonalizable algebras of operators on a…

We describe the structure of module categories of finite dimensional algebras over an algebraically closed field for which the cycles of nonzero nonisomorphisms between indecomposable finite dimensional modules are finite (do not belong to…

Let L/K be a finite Galois extension of complete local fields with finite residue fields and let G=Gal(L/K). Let G_1 and G_2 be the first and second ramification groups. Thus L/K is tamely ramified when G_1 is trivial and we say that L/K is…

A ring $R$ is called right (small) dual if every (small) right ideal of $R$ is a right annihilator. Left (small) dual rings can be defined similarly. And a ring $R$ is called (small) dual if $R$ is left and right (small) dual. It is proved…

Two extension problems are solved. First, the class of locally matricial algebras over an arbitrary field is closed under extensions. Second, the class of locally finite dimensional semisimple algebras over a fixed field is closed under…
