We establish primitive recursive versions of some known facts about computable ordered fields of reals and computable reals, and then apply them to proving primitive recursiveness of some natural problems in linear algebra and analysis. In…

We construct a non-separable C*-algebra that is prime but not primitive.

We consider an analogue of Artin's primitive root conjecture for units in real quadratic fields. Given such a nontrivial unit, for a rational prime p which is inert in the field the maximal order of the unit modulo p is p+1. An extension of…

We consider amalgamated unital full free products of the form $A_1*_DA_2$, where $A_1, A_2$ and $D$ are finite dimensional C*-algebras and there are faithful traces on $A_1$ and $A_2$ whose restrictions to $D$ agree. We provide several…

We classify the primitive ideals of generalized down-up algebras

We generalize Jacobson's notion of primitive ring to the setting of quantales. We show that every primitive ring gives rise to a primitive quantale of ideals. We then prove a density theorem for strongly primitive quantales. Furthermore, we…

We establish necessary and sufficient conditions on a (not necessarily countable) graph E for the graph C*-algebra C*(E) to be primitive. Along with a known characterization of the graphs E for which C*(E) is prime, our main result provides…

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…

Let G be a finite group, let p be a prime number, and let K be a field of characteristic 0 and k be a field of characteristic p, both large enough. In this note we state explicit formulae for the primitive idempotents of K\otimes pp_k(G),…

Using Popa's deformation/rigidity theory, we investigate prime decompositions of von Neumann algebras of the form $L(\mathcal{R})$ for countable probability measure preserving equivalence relations $\mathcal{R}$. We show that…

Let K be a number field, let f(x) in K(x) be a rational function of degree d> 1, and let z in K be a wandering point such that f^n(z) is nonzero for all n > 0. We prove that if the abc-conjecture holds for K, then for all but finitely many…

We study primitive elements in the Ringel-Hall algebra H(A) of an algebra A over a finite field associated with a quiver with automorphism. When A is a tame hereditary algebra, we give a description of primitive elements in H(A) which…

We investigate a class of algebras that provides multiparameter versions of both quantum symplectic space and quantum Euclidean $2n$-space. These algebras encompass the graded quantized Weyl algebras, the quantized Heisenberg space, and a…

Let $K$ be a number field and let $G$ be a finitely generated subgroup of $K^\times$. For all but finitely many primes $\mathfrak p$ of $K$, the reduction $(G \bmod \mathfrak p)$ generates a well-defined subgroup of the multiplicative group…

We give a complete description of the primitive ideal space of the C*-algebra associated to the ring of integers R in a number field K as considered in a recent paper by Cuntz, Deninger and Laca.

In this paper we will study integrability of distributions whose primitives are left regulated functions and locally or globally integrable in the Henstock--Kurzweil, Lebesgue or Riemann sense. Corresponding spaces of distributions and…

Let $K$ be a number field, and let $G$ be a finitely generated subgroup of $K^\times$. Without relying on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of primes $\mathfrak p$ of $K$ such that the order of…

We extend two well-known results on primitive ideals in enveloping algebras of semisimple Lie algebras, the `Irreducibility theorem' and `Duflo theorem', to much wider classes of algebras. Our general version of Irreducibility theorem says…

We describe the prime and primitive spectra for quantized enveloping algebras at roots of 1 in characteristic zero in terms of the prime spectrum of the underlying enveloping algebra. For primitive ideals we obtain an analogue of Duflo's…

We give a complete characterization of countable primitive groups in several settings including linear groups, subgroups of mapping class groups, groups acting minimally on trees and convergence groups. The latter category includes as a…
