Let p be a prime, K a p-adic field, G a nilpotent, uniform pro-p group. We prove that all faithful, primitive ideals in the Iwasawa algebra KG are controlled by the centraliser of the second term in the upper central series for G.

Let G be a nilpotent p-valuable (compact p-adic Lie) group. There is an ongoing investigation into the prime ideals of its completed group algebra (Iwasawa algebra), and there remains an open conjecture that they can all be proved to have a…

Given a $p$-adic field $K$ and a nilpotent uniform pro-$p$ group $G$, we prove that all primitive ideals in the $K$-rational Iwasawa algebra $KG$ are maximal, and can be reduced to a particular standard form. Setting $\mathcal{L}$ as the…

Let kG be the completed group algebra of a uniform pro-p group G with coefficients in a field k of characteristic p. We study right ideals I in kG that are invariant under the action of another uniform pro-p group Gamma. We prove that if I…

Let $p>2$ be a prime, $k$ a finite field of characteristic $p$, and $G$ a nilpotent-by-finite compact $p$-adic analytic group. Write $kG$ for the completed group ring of $G$ over $k$. We show that $kG$ is a catenary ring.

Let $G$ be a torsionfree compact $p$-adic analytic group. We give sufficient conditions on $p$ and $G$ which ensure that the Iwasawa algebra $\Omega_G$ of $G$ has no non-trivial two-sided reflexive ideals. Consequently, these conditions…

Let $G$ be a nilpotent-by-finite compact $p$-adic analytic group for some $p>2$, and $H = \mathbf{FN}_p(G)$ its finite-by-(nilpotent $p$-valuable) radical. Fix a finite field $k$ of characteristic $p$, and write $kG$ for the completed group…

Let p be a prime, let G be a p-valuable, abelian-by-procyclic group, and let k be a field of characteristic p. We will prove that all faithful prime ideals of the completed group algebra kG are controlled by the centre of G, and a complete…

Let $k$ be a finite field of characteristic $p$, and $G$ a compact $p$-adic analytic group. Write $kG$ for the completed group ring of $G$ over $k$. In this paper, we describe the structure of the ring $kG/P$, where $P$ is a minimal prime…

For a prime $p>2$, let $G$ be a semi-simple, simply connected, split Chevalley group over $\mathbb{Z}_p$, $G(1)$ be the first congruence kernel of $G$ and $\Omega_{G(1)}$ be the mod-$p$ Iwasawa algebra defined over the finite field…

Let H be a torsionfree compact p-adic analytic group whose Lie algebra is split semisimple. We show that the quotient skewfield of fractions of the Iwasawa algebra \Lambda_H of H has trivial centre and use this result to classify the prime…

In this paper and a forthcoming joint one with Y. Hachimori we study Iwasawa modules over an infinite Galois extension K of a number field k whose Galois group G=G(K/k) is isomorphic to the semidirect product of two copies of the p-adic…

Let $A$ be a commutative algebra equipped with an action of a group $G$. The so-called $G$-primes of $A$ are the equivariant analogs of prime ideals, and of central importance in equivariant commutative algebra. When $G$ is an infinite…

Let l be an odd prime and K/k a Galois extension of totally real number fields with Galois group G such that K/k_\infty and k/Q are finite. We give a full description of the algebraic structure of the semisimple algebra QG=Quot(\Lambda G)…

We study prime ideals in skew power series rings $T:=R[[y;\tau,\delta]]$, for suitably conditioned right noetherian complete semilocal rings $R$, automorphisms $\tau$ of $R$, and $\tau$-derivations $\delta$ of $R$. These rings were…

In this paper, we investigate the structure of skew power series rings of the form $S = R[[x;\sigma,\delta]]$, where $R$ is a complete filtered ring and $(\sigma,\delta)$ is a skew derivation respecting the filtration. Our main focus is on…

We show that if a groupoid graded ring has a certain nonzero ideal property, then the commutant of the center of the principal component of the ring has the ideal intersection property, that is it intersects nontrivially every nonzero ideal…

Completely prime right ideals are introduced as a one-sided generalization of the concept of a prime ideal in a commutative ring. Some of their basic properties are investigated, pointing out both similarities and differences between these…

We investigate the algebraic properties of the bounded skew power series ring $Q^+[[x;\sigma,\delta]]$ over a (complete, simple) \emph{standard} filtered artinian algebra $Q$ of positive characteristic. Here we are assuming that…

We prove that any finite W-algebra U(g,e) admits a one-dimensional representation fixed by the action of the component group of the centraliser of e. As a consequence, for any nilpotent orbit O in g there exists a multiplicity-free (and…
