Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be an analytically unramified Cohen-Macaulay local ring and let $\mathfrak{a}$ be an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal in $A$. If $I$ is an ideal in $A$ then let $I^*$ be the integral closure of $I$ in $A$. Let…
Pimsner introduced the C*-algebra O_X generated by a Hilbert bimodule X over a C*-algebra A. We look for additional conditions that X should satisfy in order to study simplicity and, more generally, the ideal structure of O_X when X is…
Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be an analytically un-ramified Noetherian local ring of dimension $d \geq 1$, $I$ a regular $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal of $A$ and let $\overline{I}$ be integral closure ideal of $I$. If $A$ is of characteristic $p >…
We construct an algebra $A=\ell^{\infty \infty}({\Bbb Z})$ of smooth functions which is dense in the pointwise multiplication algebra $\ell^\infty({\Bbb Z})$ of sup-norm bounded functions on the integers $\Bbb Z$. The algebra $A$ properly…
We study ideals $\mathcal{I}$ on $\mathbb{N}$ satisfying the following Baire-type property: if $X$ is a complete metric space and $\{X_{A} \colon A \in \mathcal{I} \}$ is a family of nowhere dense subsets of $X$ with $X_{A} \subset X_{B}$…
Let $G$ be a compact $p$-adic analytic group. We recall the well-understood finite radical $\Delta^+$ and FC-centre $\Delta$, and introduce a $p$-adic analogue of Roseblade's subgroup $\mathrm{nio}(G)$, the unique largest orbitally sound…
Let $E \ni x\mapsto A(x)$ be a $\mathscr{C}$-mapping with values unbounded normal operators with common domain of definition and compact resolvent. Here $\mathscr{C}$ stands for $C^\infty$, $C^\omega$ (real analytic), $C^{[M]}$…
In recent work, Cuntz, Deninger and Laca have studied the Toeplitz type C*-algebra associated to the affine monoid of algebraic integers in a number field, under a time evolution determined by the absolute norm. The KMS equilibrium states…
In this paper we state and prove ad hoc "Separation Theorems" of the so-called Smooth Commutative Algebra, the Commutative Algebra of \(\mathcal{C}^{\infty}-\)rings. These results are formally similar to the ones we find in (ordinary)…
The purpose of this paper is to give a characterization for polynomials and rational functions which admit only non-negative values on definable sets in real closed valued fields. That is, generalizing the relative positivstellens\"atze for…
We study the representation theory of a conformal net A on the circle from a K-theoretical point of view using its universal C*-algebra C*(A). We prove that if A satisfies the split property then, for every representation \pi of A with…
We study in this paper the infinite-dimensional orthogonal Lie algebra $\mathcal{O}_C$ which consists of all bounded linear operators $T$ on a separable, infinite-dimensional, complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ satisfying $CTC=-T^*$, where…
In this paper we define and explore the analytic spread $\ell(\mathcal I)$ of a filtration in a local ring. We show that, especially for divisorial and symbolic filtrations, some basic properties of the analytic spread of an ideal extend to…
We study the gauge-invariant ideal structure of the Nica-Toeplitz algebra $\mathcal{NT}(X)$ of a product system $(A, X)$ over $\mathbb{N}^n$. We obtain a clear description of $X$-invariant ideals in $A$, that is, restrictions of…
Let $(X, 0)$ be a normal complex surface germ embedded in $(\mathbb{C}^n, 0)$, and denote by $\mathfrak{m}$ the maximal ideal of the local ring $\mathcal{O}_{X,0}$. In this paper, we associate to each $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal $I$ of…
We present a new effective Nullstellensatz with bounds for the degrees which depend not only on the number of variables and on the degrees of the input polynomials but also on an additional parameter called the {\it geometric degree of the…
We define a congruence module $\Psi_A(M)$ associated to a surjective $\mathcal O$-algebra morphism $\lambda\colon A \to \mathcal{O}$, with $\mathcal{O}$ a discrete valuation ring, $A$ a complete noetherian local $\mathcal{O}$-algebra…
A proper ideal $I$ in a commutative ring with unity is called a $z^\circ$-ideal if for each $a$ in $I$, the intersection of all minimal prime ideals in $R$ which contain $a$ is contained in $I$. For any totally ordered field $F$ and a…
We regard a right Hilbert C*-module X over a C*-algebra A endowed with an isometric *-homomorphism \phi: A\to L_A(X) as an object X_A of the C*-category of right Hilbert A-modules. Following a construction by the first author and Roberts,…
Consider the ring $C_c(X)_F$ of real valued functions which are discontinuous on a finite set with countable range. We discuss $(\mathcal{Z}_c)_F$-filters on $X$ and $(\mathcal{Z}_c)_F$-ideals of $C_c(X)_F$. We establish an analogous…
