Let $I$ be a square-free monomial ideal in a polynomial ring $R=K[x_1,\ldots, x_n]$ over a field $K$, $\mathfrak{m}=(x_1, \ldots, x_n)$ be the graded maximal ideal of $R$, and $\{u_1, \ldots, u_{\beta_1(I)}\}$ be a maximal independent set…
Let $V$ be a vector space over a field $k, P:V\to k, d\geq 3$. We show the existence of a function $C(r,d)$ such that $rank (P)\leq C(r,d)$ for any field $k,char (k)>d$, a finite-dimensional $k$-vector space $V$ and a polynomial $P:V\to k$…
Let F:K be a Galois extension of number fields and Q a prime ideal of O_F lying over the prime P of O_K. By analyzing the Q-adic closure of O_K in O_F we characterize those rings of integers O_K for which every residue class ring of…
In this paper, we use trace methods to study the algebraic $K$-theory of rings of the form $R[x_1,\ldots, x_d]/(x_1,\ldots, x_d)^2$. We compute the relative $p$-adic $K$ groups for $R$ a perfectoid ring. In particular, we get the integral…
Let $\Bbbk$ be a field of characteristic $p>0$, $V$ a finite-dimensional $\Bbbk$-vector-space, and $G$ a finite $p$-group acting $\Bbbk$-linearly on $V$. Let $S = \Sym V^*$. We show that $S^G$ is a polynomial ring if and only if the…
We show that under very mild conditions on a measure $\mu$ on the interval $[0,\infty)$, the span of $\{x^k\}_{k=n}^{\infty}$ is dense in $L^2(\mu)$ for any $n=0,1,\ldots$. We present two different proofs of this result, one based on the…
A Gorenstein A-algebra R of codimension 2 is a perfect finite A-algebra such that R=Ext^2(R,A) holds as R-modules, A being a Cohen-Macaulay local ring with dim(A)-dim_A(R)=2. I prove a structure theorem for these algebras improving on an…
We are interested in characterising the commutative rings for which a $1$-tilting cotorsion pair $(\mathcal{A}, \mathcal{T})$ provides for covers, that is when the class $\mathcal{A}$ is a covering class. We use Hrbek's bijective…
Assume that $G$ is a virtually torsion-free solvable group of finite rank and $A$ a $\mathbb ZG$-module whose underlying abelian group is torsion-free and has finite rank. We stipulate a condition on $A$ that ensures that $H^n(G,A)$ and…
The set ${\cal P}^{m\times n}_{r,d}$ of $m \times n$ complex matrix polynomials of grade $d$ and (normal) rank at most $r$ in a complex $(d+1)mn$ dimensional space is studied. For $r = 1, \dots , \min \{m, n\}-1$, we show that ${\cal…
We say that a local ring $R$ is good, in the sense of Roos, if all finitely generated $R$-modules have rational Poincar\'e series that share a common denominator; otherwise, $R$ is said to be bad. An important class of good rings is the…
Let $G$ be a finite connected graph, and let $\rho$ be the spectral radius of its universal cover. For example, if $G$ is $k$-regular then $\rho=2\sqrt{k-1}$. We show that for every $r$, there is an $r$-covering (a.k.a. an $r$-lift) of $G$…
This article generalizes joint work of the first author and I. Swanson to the $s$-multiplicity recently introduced by the second author. For $k$ a field and $X = [ x_{i,j}]$ a $m \times n$-matrix of variables, we utilize Gr\"obner bases to…
The ad\`ele ring $\mathbb A_K$ of a global field $K$ is a locally compact, metrizable topological ring which is complete with respect to any invariant metric on $\mathbb A_K$. For a fixed global field $F$ and a possibly infinite algebraic…
The notion of almost Gorenstein ring given by Barucci and Fr{\"o}berg \cite{BF} in the case where the local rings are analytically unramified is generalized, so that it works well also in the case where the rings are analytically ramified.…
We introduce a very natural topology on the set of total orderings of monomials of any algebra having a countable basis over a field. This topological space and some notable subspaces are compact. This topological framework allows us to…
An irreducible element of a commutative ring is absolutely irreducible if no power of it has more than one (essentially different) factorization into irreducibles. In the case of the ring $\text{Int}(D)=\{f\in K[x]\mid f(D)\subseteq D\}$,…
Let $f(Z)=Z^n-a_{1}Z^{n-1}+\cdots+(-1)^{n-1}a_{n-1}Z+(-1)^na_n$ be a monic polynomial with coefficients in a ring~$R$ with identity, not necessarily commutative. We study the ideal $I_f$ of $R[X_1,\dots,X_n]$ generated by…
Let $(R,\fm)$ be a local ring, and let $C$ be a semidualizing complex. We establish the equality $r_R(Z) = \nu(\Ext^{g-\inf C}_R(Z,C))\mu^{\depth C}_R(\mathfrak{m}, C)$ for a homologically finite and bounded complex $Z$ with finite…
