We express explicitly the integral closures of some ring extensions; this is done for all Bring-Jerrard extensions of any degree as well as for all general extensions of degree < 6; so far such an explicit expression is known only for…

We characterise ideals in two-dimensional regular local rings that arise as ideals of maximal minors of indecomposable integrally closed modules of rank three.

For a finitely generated algebra over a field, the transcendence degree is known to be equal to the Krull dimension. The aim of this paper is to generalize this result to algebras over rings. A new definition of the transcendence degree of…

We define A-infinity-bimodules similarly to Tradler and show that this notion is equivalent to an A-infinity-functor with two arguments which takes values in the differential graded category of complexes of k-modules, where k is a ground…

Let k be a perfect field and A a finite dimensional k-algebra of finite global dimension (e.g. the path algebra of a finite quiver without oriented cycles). Making use of the recent theory of noncommutative motives, we prove that the value…

Let $D$ be an integrally closed local Noetherian domain of Krull dimension 2, and let $f$ be a nonzero element of $D$ such that $fD$ has prime radical. We consider when an integrally closed ring $H$ between $D$ and $D_f$ is determined…

The existence of maximal subrings in certain non-commutative rings, especially in rings which are integral over their centers, are investigated. We prove that if a ring $T$ is integral over its center, then either $T$ has a maximal subring…

We prove that the integral closedness of any ideal of height at least two is compatible with specialization by a generic element. This opens the possibility for proofs using induction on the height of an ideal. Also, with additional…

We study maximal subalgebras of an arbitrary finite dimensional algebra over a field, and obtain full classification/description results of such algebras. This is done by first obtaining a complete classification in the semisimple case, and…

An extension of algebras is a homomorphism of algebras preserving identities. We use extensions of algebras to study the finitistic dimension conjecture over Artin algebras. Let $f: B \to A$ be an extension of Artin algebras. We denote by…

Consider complex semisimple Lie algebras of a given dimension specified by their structure constants. We describe a finite collection of rational functions in the structure constants that form a complete set of invariants: two sets of…

In this paper our main theorem states the following, Main Theorem : Let B denote the polynomial ring D[x1,.... ,xn] , in the commuting indeterminates x i over a division ring D . Let M be a finitely generated B-module . Let B m denote the…

An ordered semiring is a commutative semiring equipped with a compatible preorder. Ordered semirings generalise both distributive lattices and commutative rings, and provide a convenient framework to unify certain aspects of lattice theory…

For a Dedekind domain $R$ with field of fractions $K$ a classical $R$-order in a semisimple $K$-algebra $A$ is an $R$-projective $R$-subalgebra $\Lambda$ of $A$ such that $K\Lambda=A$. We study differential graded $K$-algebras which are…

Let $D$ be an integral domain with quotient field $K$ and $\Omega$ a finite subset of $D$. McQuillan proved that the ring ${\rm Int}(\Omega,D)$ of polynomials in $K[X]$ which are integer-valued over $\Omega$, that is, $f\in K[X]$ such that…

Let D be an integral domain with quotient field K. For any set X, the ring Int(D^X) of integer-valued polynomials on D^X is the set of all polynomials f in K[X] such that f(D^X) is a subset of D. Using the t-closure operation on fractional…

We consider the question of when a semigroup is the semigroup of a valuation dominating a two dimensional noetherian local domain, giving some surprising examples. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the pair of a semigroup S…

Let $L/K$ be a finite Galois extension of $p$-adic fields with group $G$. It is well-known that $\mathcal{O}_L$ contains a free $\mathcal{O}_K[G]$-submodule of finite index. We study the minimal index of such a free submodule, and determine…

Let $D$ be an integral domain with quotient field $K$. The $b$-operation that associates to each nonzero $D$-submodule $E$ of $K$, $E^b := \bigcap\{EV \mid V valuation overring of D\}$, is a semistar operation that plays an important role…

Let M be a maximal subalgebra of the Lie algebra L. A subalgebra C of L is said to be a completion for M if C is not contained in M but every proper subalgebra of C that is an ideal of L is contained in M. The set I(M) of all completions of…
