Recognizing when a ring is a complete matrix ring is of significant importance in algebra. It is well-known folklore that a ring $R$ is a complete $n\times n$ matrix ring, so $R\cong M_{n}(S)$ for some ring $S$, if and only if it contains a…

We give a $K$-theoretic account of the basic properties of Witt vectors. Along the way we re-prove basic properties of the little-known Witt vector norm, give a characterization of Witt vectors in terms of algebraic $K$-theory, and a…

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

Using linear algebra methods we study certain algebraic properties of monomial rings and matroids. Let I be a monomial ideal in a polynomial ring over an arbitrary field. If the Rees cone of I is quasi-ideal, we express the normalization of…

Let $V$ be an algebraic variety defined over $\mathbb R$, and $V_{top}$ the space of its complex points. We compare the algebraic Witt group $W(V)$ of symmetric bilinear forms on vector bundles over $V$, with the topological Witt group…

We consider Dunkl version of Laplace-Runge-Lenz vector associated with a finite Coxeter group $W$ acting geometrically in $\mathbb R^N$ with multiplicity function $g$. This vector generalizes the usual Laplace-Runge-Lenz vector and its…

We extend the notion of a purely infinite simple C*-algebra to the context of unital rings, and we study its basic properties, specially those related to K-Theory. For instance, if $R$ is a purely infinite simple ring, then $K_0(R)^+=…

The central notion of this work is that of a functor between categories of finitely presented modules over so-called computable rings, i.e. rings R where one can algorithmically solve inhomogeneous linear equations with coefficients in R.…

Factoring out the spin $1$ subalgebra of a $ W $ algebra leads to a new $ W $ structure which can be seen either as a rational finitely generated $ W $ algebra or as a polynomial non-linear $ W_\infty$ realization.

We approach a problem of realising algebraic objects in a certain universal equivariant stable homotopy theory; the global homotopy theory of Schwede. Specifically, for a global ring spectrum $R$, we consider which classes of ring…

The goal of this paper is to offer a new construction of the de Rham-Witt complex of smooth varieties over perfect fields of characteristic $p>0$. We introduce a category of cochain complexes equipped with an endomorphism $F$ of underlying…

Given an action of a monoid $T$ on a ring $A$ by ring endomorphisms, and an Ore subset $S$ of $T$, a general construction of a fractional skew monoid ring $S^{\rm op} * A * T$ is given, extending the usual constructions of skew group rings…

We show how the Z_p(r)-cohomologies of a smooth projective algebraic variety can be obtained via its de Rham-Witt complex.

We define twisted Hochschild homology for Green functors. This construction is the algebraic analogue of the relative topological Hochschild homology $THH_{C_n}(-)$, and it describes the $E_2$ term of the K\"unneth spectral sequence for…

We establish formulas for computation of the higher algebraic $K$-groups of the endomorphism rings of objects linked by a morphism in an additive category. Let ${\mathcal C}$ be an additive category, and let $Y\ra X$ be a covariant morphism…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group and $P \subset G$ be a closed Ore semigroup containing the identity element. Let $V: P \to B(\clh)$ be a representation such that for every $a \in P$, $V_{a}$ is an isometry and the final projections of…

According to an old result of Albert and Muckenhoupt, the commutators in the endomorphism ring of a finite dimensional vector space are precisely the elements of trace zero. We replace the finite dimensional vector space with a complex of…

We consider the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ of a simple, simply connected algebraic group over a field of large positive characteristic. For each nilpotent orbit $\mathcal{O} \subseteq \mathfrak{g}$ we choose a representative $e\in…

Two fields are Witt equivalent if, roughly speaking, they have the same quadratic form theory. Formally, that is to say that their Witt rings of symmetric bilinear forms are isomorphic. This equivalence is well understood only in a few…

Derived de Rham cohomology has been recently used in several contexts, as in works of Beilinson and Bhatt on p-adic periods morphisms and Morin on numerical invariants for special values of zeta functions. Inspired by some results of Morin,…
