In regard to our recent studies of rings with (strongly, weakly) nil-clean-like properties, we explore in-depth both the structural and characterization properties of those rings whose elements that are not units are weakly nil-clean. Group…
We prove that every isometry of between (not-necessarily orthogonal) summands of a unimodular quadratic space over a semiperfect ring can be extended an isometry of the whole quadratic space. The same result was proved by Reiter for the…
We study the regularity and the projective dimension of the Stanley-Reisner ring of a $k$-decomposable simplicial complex and explain these invariants with a recursive formula. To this aim, the graded Betti numbers of $k$-decomposable…
We show that all monomial ideals in the polynomial ring in at most 3 variables are pretty clean and that an arbitrary monomial ideal $I$ is pretty clean if and only if its polarization $I^p$ is clean. This yields a new characterization of…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic, $G$ a reductive group over $k$, and $V$ a finite dimensional $G$-module. Let $B$ be a Borel subgroup of $G$, and $U$ its unipotent radical. We prove that if $S=\Sym V$ has…
In this paper, we introduce and study the class $S$-$\mathcal{F}$-ML of $S$-Mittag-Leffler modules with respect to all flat modules. We show that a ring $R$ is $S$-coherent if and only if $S$-$\mathcal{F}$-ML is closed under submodules. As…
A module $M$ is {called} stable if it has no nonzero projective direct summand. For a ring $ R $, we study conditions under which $R$-modules from certain classes decompose as a direct sum of a projective submodule and a stable submodule.…
A ring is called clean if every element is the sum of an invertible element and an idempotent. This paper investigates the cleanness of AW*-algebras. We prove that all finite AW*-algebras are clean, affirmatively solving a question posed by…
We define a closure operation for ideals in a commutative ring which has all the good properties of solid closure (at least in the case of equal characteristic) but such that also every ideal in a regular ring is closed. This gives in…
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…
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…
It is proved, among other results, that a prime right nonsingular ring (in particular, a simple ring) $R$ is right self-injective if $R_R$ is invariant under automorphisms of its injective hull. This answers two questions raised by Singh…
Let $\mathbf{k}$ be an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic, let $\Lambda$ be a finite dimensional $\mathbf{k}$-algebra and let $V$ be a $\Lambda$-module with stable endomorphism ring isomorphic to $\mathbf{k}$. If…
Jespers and Sun conjectured that if a finite group $G$ has the property ND, i.e. for every nilpotent element $n$ in the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z}G$ and every primitive central idempotent $e \in \mathbb{Q}G$ one still has $ne \in…
An ideal I of a commutative ring R is said to be irreducible if it cannot be written as the intersection of two larger ideals. A proper ideal I of a ring R is said to be strongly irreducible if for each ideals J, K of R, J\cap K\subseteq I…
A ring $R$ is a UU ring if every unit is unipotent, or equivalently if every unit is a sum of a nilpotent and an idempotent that commute. These rings have been investigated in C\u{a}lug\u{a}reanu \cite{C} and in Danchev and Lam \cite{DL}.…
Can there be a structure space-type theory for an arbitrary class of ideals of a ring? The ideal spaces introduced in this paper allows such a study and our theory includes (but not restricted to) prime, maximal, minimal prime, strongly…
Let Q be a (non-unital) simple ring. A nonempty subset S of Q is said to have zero product if S^2=0. We classify all maximal zero product subsets of Q. We also describe the relationship between the maximal zero product subsets of Q and the…
Let $A\subset B$ be an extension of commutative reduced rings and $M\subset N$ an extension of positive commutative cancellative torsion-free monoids. We prove that $A$ is subintegrally closed in $B$ and $M$ is subintegrally closed in $N$…
We show that every complete noetherian local commutative ring R with residue field k can be realized as a universal deformation ring of a continuous linear representation of a profinite group. More specifically, R is the universal…
