We prove that the Milnor ring of any (one-dimensional) local or global field K modulo a prime number l is a Koszul algebra over Z/l. Under mild assumptions that are only needed in the case l=2, we also prove various module Koszulity…

Let $R$ be a characteristic $p$ discrete valuation ring with field of fractions $K$. Let $H$ be a commutative, cocommutative $K$-Hopf algebra of $p$-power rank which is generated as a $K$-algebra by primitive elements. We construct all of…

A set of positive integers is said to be primitive if no element of the set is a multiple of another. If $S$ is a primitive set and $S(x)$ is the number of elements of $S$ not exceeding $x$, then a result of Erd\H os implies that…

We prove an assortment of results on (commutative and unital) NIP rings, especially $\mathbb{F}_p$-algebras. Let $R$ be a NIP ring. Then every prime ideal or radical ideal of $R$ is externally definable, and every localization $S^{-1}R$ is…

We study locally finite varieties (=primitive classes) of linear algebras over finite fields. We do not assume that our algebras are associative or Lie. We are interested in the basic properties of finite algebras in these varieties such…

We shall prove that an automorphism of a simple abelian variety is primitive if and only if it is of infinite order.

We establish a technique to prove that a Koszul graded ring is prime or a domain using information about its Koszul dual. This is based on a general categorical result that expands on methods of J.Y. Guo, which proves that certain orbital…

We consider primitive divisors of terms of integer sequences defined by quadratic polynomials. Apart from some small counterexamples, when a term has a primitive divisor, that primitive divisor is unique. It seems likely that the number of…

Let $k$ be a field with a real valuation $\nu$ and $R$ a $k$-algebra. We show that there exist a $k$-algebra $K$ and a real valuation $\mu$ on $K$ extending $\nu$ such that any real ring valuation of $R$ is induced by $\mu$ via some…

We investigate criteria for von-Neumann finiteness and reversibility in some classes of non-associative algebras. We show that all finite-dimensional alternative algebras, as well as all algebras obtained from the real numbers via the…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety defined over a number field $K$. We say that a point $P \in A(\overline{\mathbb{Q}})$ is primitive if there is no $Q \in A(\overline{\mathbb{Q}})$ defined on the field of definition of $P$ over $K$ such that…

Kaplansky conjectured that if H is a finite-dimensional semisimple Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0, then H is of Frobenius type (i.e. if V is an irreducible representation of H then dimV divides dimH).…

We prove that (under the assumption of the generalized Riemann hypothesis) a totally real multiquadratic number field $K$ has a positive density of primes $p \in \mathbb{Z}$ for which the image of the unit group $(\mathcal{O}_K)^{\times})$…

A number field $K$ is called primitive if $\mathbb Q$ and $K$ are the only subfields of $K$. Let $X$ be a nice curve over $\mathbb Q$ of genus $g$. A point $P$ of degree $d$ on $X$ is called primitive if the field of definition $\mathbb…

Given a finitely generated free monoid $X$ and a morphism $\phi : X\to X$, we show that one can construct an algebra, which we call an iterative algebra, in a natural way. We show that many ring theoretic properties of iterative algebras…

A distinguished family of completely prime primitive ideals in the universal enveloping algebra of a reductive Lie algebra ${\mathfrak g}$ over ${\mathbb C}$ are those ideals constructed from one-dimensional representations of finite…

The Lie algebra of planar vector fields with coefficients from the field of rational functions over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero is considered. We find all finite-dimensional Lie algebras that can be realized as…

The main aim of this paper is to prove $R$-triviality for simple, simply connected algebraic groups with Tits index $E_{8,2}^{78}$ or $E_{7,1}^{78}$, defined over a field $k$ of arbitrary characteristic. Let $G$ be such a group. We prove…

Of four types of Kaplansky algebras, type-2 and type-4 algebras have previously unobserved $\mathbb{Z}/2$-gradings: nonlinear in roots. A method assigning a simple Lie superalgebra to every $\mathbb{Z}/2$-graded simple Lie algebra in…

Kronecker's Theorem and Rabin's Theorem are fundamental results about computable fields F and the decidability of the set of irreducible polynomials over F. We adapt these theorems to the setting of differential fields K, with constrained…
