If $R$ is a commutative ring, $I$ an ideal of $R$ and $v, w \in Um_{2n}(R, I)$ then we show that $v, w$ are in the same orbit of elementary action if and only if they are in the same orbit of elementary symplectic action. We also show that…

It is shown that every commutative arithmetic ring $R$ has $lambda$-dimension $ leq 3$. An example of a commutative Kaplansky ring with $ lambda$-dimension 3 is given. If $R$ satisfies an additional condition then $ lambda$-dim($R$)

We call a ring R pointwise semicommutative if for any element a in R either l(a) or r(a) is an ideal of R. A class of pointwise semicommutative rings is a strict generalization of semicommutative rings. Since reduced rings are pointwise…

The purpose of this paper is to give a partial positive answer to a question raised by Khurana et al. as to whether a ring $R$ with stable range one and central units is commutative. We show that this is the case under any of the following…

In this article, we first generalize Kaplansky's zero-divisor conjecture of group-rings $K[G]$ (with $K$ a field) to the more general setting of $G$-graded rings $R=\bigoplus\limits_{n\in G}R_{n}$ with $G$ a torsion-free group. Then we…

A commutative ring $R$ is stable provided every ideal of $R$ containing a nonzerodivisor is projective as a module over its ring of endomorphisms. The class of stable rings includes the one-dimensional local Cohen-Macaulay rings of…

In this article we revisit a problem regarding Bezout domains, namely, whether every Bezout domain is an elementary divisor domain. We prove that a Bezout domain in which every maximal ideal is principal is an elementary divisor ring

Replacing invertibility with quasi-invertibility in Bass' first stable range condition we discover a new class of rings, the QB-rings. These constitute a considerable enlargement of the class of rings with stable rank one (B-rings), and…

Using the properties of the ideal of the coordinate Hermite interpolation on n-dimensional grid [4], we prove that the extension k in k[x1, x2, ..., xn] / (f1(x1), ..., fn(xn)) has a primitive element if and only if at most one of the…

We introduce the concept of rings of simple range 2. Based on this concept, we build a theory diagonal reduction of matrices over Bezout domain. In particular we show that invariant Bezout domain is an elementary divisor ring if and only if…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $I\subset R$ be a nilpotent ideal such that the quotient $R/I$ splits out of $R$ as a ring. Let $N$ be a natural number such that ${I^N=0}$. We establish a canonical isomorphism between the relative Milnor…

Let G be the wreath product of Z and Z/2, the so called lamplighter group and k a commutative ring. We show that kG does not have a classical ring of quotients (i.e. does not satisfy the Ore condition). This answers a Kourovka notebook…

We proved that in J-Noetherian Bezout domain which is not a ring of stable range 1 exists a nonunit adequate element (element of almost stable range 1

A ring element $\,a\in R\,$ is said to be of {\it right stable range one\/} if, for any $\,t\in R$, $\,aR+tR=R\,$ implies that $\,a+t\,b\,$ is a unit in $\,R\,$ for some $\,b\in R$. Similarly, $\,a\in R\,$ is said to be of {\it left stable…

Consider the Wronskians of the classical Hermite polynomials $$H_{\lambda, l}(x):=\mathrm{Wr}(H_l(x),H_{k_1}(x),\ldots, H_{k_n}(x)), \quad l \in \mathbb Z_{\geq 0},$$ where $k_i=\lambda_i+n-i, \,\, i=1,\dots, n$ and $\lambda=(\lambda_1,…

We say that a commutative ring R satisfies the restricted minimum (RM) condition if for all essential ideals I in R, factor R/I is an Artinian ring. We will focus on Noetherian reduced rings because in this setting known results for RM…

This paper deals with five extensions of the Pr\"ufer domain concept to commutative rings with zero divisors. We investigate the stability of these Pr\"ufer-like conditions under localization and homomorphic image. Our results generate new…

Let H_q(S_n) be the Iwahori-Hecke algebra of the symmetric group. This algebra is semisimple over the rational function field Q(q), where q is an indeterminate, and its irreducible representations over this field are q-analogues S_q(lambda)…

Many rings and algebras arising in quantum mechanics can be interpreted as skew PBW (Poincar\'e-Birkhoff-Witt) extensions. Indeed, Weyl algebras, enveloping algebras of finite-dimensional Lie algebras (and its quantization), Artamonov…

In this article we prove several important results on graded rings, especially monoid-rings, that are motivated and inspired by Kaplansky's zero-divisor, unit and idempotents conjectures. Among the main results, we first generalize…
