We prove an algebraic decomposition theorem for the unit group $\mathrm{GL}(R)$ of an arbitrary non-discrete irreducible, continuous ring $R$ (in von Neumann's sense), which entails that every element of $\mathrm{GL}(R)$ is both a product…

Let $k$ be a field, and let $\Lambda$ be a finite dimensional $k$-algebra. We prove that if $\Lambda$ is a self-injective algebra, then every finitely generated $\Lambda$-module $V$ whose stable endomorphism ring is isomorphic to $k$ has a…

The product matrix of a finite commutative ring $R=\{x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n\}$ and an element $u \in R$ is the matrix $A_u(R)=[a_{ij}]$, where $a_{ij}=1$ if $x_ix_j=u$, and $a_{ij}=0$ otherwise. This provides a natural extension of the concept…

Let $A_1,\ldots,A_s$ be unitary commutative rings which do not have non-trivial idempotents and let $A=A_1\oplus\cdots\oplus A_s$ be their direct sum. We describe all idempotents in the $2\times 2$ matrix ring $M_2(A[[X]])$ over the ring…

We define and consider in-depth the so-called $C\Delta$ rings as those rings $R$ whose elements are a sum of an element in $C(R)$ and of an element in $\Delta(R)$. Our achieved results somewhat strengthen these recently obtained by…

It is proved that each of compact linear groups of one special type admits a polynomial factorization map onto a real vector space. More exactly, the group is supposed to be non-commutative one-dimensional and to have two connected…

Let $R$ be a ring with $char(R)\neq2$ whose unit group are denoted by $\mathcal{U}(R)$, $G$ a group with involution $*$, and $\sigma:G\rightarrow\mathcal{U}(R)$ a nontrivial group homomorphism, with $ker\ \sigma=N$, satisfying $xx^*\in N$…

For any (unital) exchange ring $R$ whose finitely generated projective modules satisfy the separative cancellation property ($A\oplus A\cong A\oplus B\cong B\oplus B$ implies $A\cong B$), it is shown that all invertible square matrices over…

The Single Ring Theorem, by Guionnet, Krishnapur and Zeitouni, describes the empirical eigenvalue distribution of a large generic matrix with prescribed singular values, i.e. an $N\times N$ matrix of the form $A=UTV$, with $U, V$ some…

We study in-depth those rings $R$ for which, there exists a fixed $n\geq 1$, such that $u^n-1$ lies in the subring $\Delta(R)$ of $R$ for every unit $u\in R$. We succeeded to describe for any $n\geq 1$ all reduced $\pi$-regular…

We define a notion of pseudo-unitarizability for weight modules over a generalized Weyl algebra (of rank one, with commutative coeffiecient ring $R$), which is assumed to carry an involution of the form $X^*=Y$, $R^*\subseteq R$. We prove…

Let $D$ be a division ring, $\mathcal V$ and $ \mathcal W$ vector spaces over $D$, and ${\mathcal L(\mathcal V,\mathcal W)}$ the ${\mathcal L(\mathcal W)}$-${\mathcal L(\mathcal V)}$ bimodule of all linear transformations from $\mathcal V$…

Let $R$ be a ring (not necessarily a commutative ring) with identity. The clean graph $Cl(R)$ of a ring $R$ is a graph with vertices in the form of an ordered pair $(e,u)$, where $e$ is an idempotent and $u$ is a unit of ring $R$,…

We study the crystalline universal deformation ring R (and its ideal of reducibility I) of a mod p Galois representation rho_0 of dimension n whose semisimplification is the direct sum of two absolutely irreducible mutually non-isomorphic…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2, and let W be the ring of infinite Witt vectors over k. Suppose G is a finite group and B is a block of kG with a dihedral defect group D such that there are precisely two…

If $\hat{R} is the pure-injective hull of a valuation ring $R$, it is proved that $\hat{R}\otimes\_RM$ is the pure-injective of $M$, for each finitely generated module $M$. Moreover, $\hat{R}\otimes\_RM\simeq\oplus\_{1\leq k\leq…

The interpolated free group factors L(F_r), 1 < r <= \infty, are defined and proofs of their properties with respect to compression by projections and taking free products are proved. Hence it follows that all the free group factor are…

Denote by PSelf(X) (resp., Self(X)) the partial (resp., full) transformation monoid over a set X, and by Sub(V) (resp., End(V)) the collection of all subspaces (resp., endomorphisms) of a vector space V. We prove various results that imply…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with $\Z(R)$ its set of zero-divisors. In this paper, we study the total graph of $R$, denoted by $\T(\Gamma(R))$. It is the (undirected) graph with all elements of $R$ as vertices, and for distinct $x, y\in…

Let $X$ be an arbitrary set and let $T(X)$ denote the full transformation monoid on $X$. We prove that an element of $T(X)$ is unit-regular if and only if it is semi-balanced. For infinite $X$, we discuss regularity of the submonoid of…
