In this paper we describe the commutant of an arbitrary subalgebra $A$ of the algebra of functions on a set $X$ in a crossed product of $A$ with the integers, where the latter act on $A$ by a composition automorphism defined via a bijection…
We investigate when the algebraic numerical range is a $C$-spectral set in a Banach algebra. While providing several counterexamples based on classical ideas as well as combinatorial Banach spaces, we discuss positive results for matrix…
We study the interplay between Banach space theory and theory of analytic P-ideals. Applying the observation that, up to isomorphism, all Banach spaces with unconditional bases can be constructed in a way very similar to the construction of…
For a geometrically rational surface X over an arbitrary field of characteristic different from 2 and 3 that contains all roots of 1, we show that either X is birational to a product of a projective line and a conic, or the group of…
Let R be a commutative noetherian ring. Lindo and Pande have recently posed the question asking when every ideal of R is isomorphic to some trace ideal of R. This paper studies this question and gives several answers. In particular, a…
We study the topological spectrum of a seminormed ring $R$ which we define as the space of prime ideals $\mathfrak{p}$ such that $\mathfrak{p}$ equals the kernel of some bounded power-multiplicative seminorm. For any seminormed ring $R$ we…
For every Banach space $Z$ with a shrinking unconditional basis satisfying upper $p$-estimates for some $p > 1$, an isomorphically polyhedral Banach space is constructed having an unconditional basis and admitting a quotient isomorphic to…
We previously showed that the inverse limit of standard-graded polynomial rings with perfect coefficient field is a polynomial ring, in an uncountable number of variables. In this paper, we show that the same result holds with arbitrary…
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…
We show that any normed space $(K^n,\|\cdot\|)$, $n\ge 2$, over a field $K$ equipped with a nontrivial non-Archimedean valuation admits a paradoxical decomposition using four pieces with respect to the group of its affine isometries,…
If the $\ell$-adic cohomology of a projective smooth variety, defined over a local field $K$ with finite residue field $k$, is supported in codimension $\ge 1$, then every model over the ring of integers of $K$ has a $k$-rational point. For…
We examine the condition that a complex Banach algebra $A$ have dense invertible group. We show that, for commutative algebras, this property is preserved by integral extensions. We also investigate the connections with an old problem in…
It is shown that all the approximately finite dimensional C*-algebras which are not of Type I are isomorphic as Banach spaces. This generalises the matroid case given previously by Arazy. Analogous results are obtained for various families…
This paper deals with the graded commutative rings in which every homogeneous prime ideal is contained in a unique homogeneous maximal ideal called Gelfand graded ring. The purpose is to establish some topological and algebraic…
We give a sufficient condition for a Banach space with which the homogeneous extension of a surjective isometry from the unit sphere of it onto another one is real-linear. The condition is satisfied by a uniform algebra and a certain…
For a projective variety $X$ defined over a non-Archimedean complete non-trivially valued field $k$, and a semipositive metrized line bundle $(L, \phi)$ over it, we establish a metric extension result for sections of $L^{\otimes n}$ from a…
Given a nonarchimedean field $K$ and a commutative, noetherian, Banach $K$-algebra $A$, we study continuity of $K$-linear differential operators (in the sense of Grothendieck) between finitely generated Banach $A$-modules. When $K$ is of…
Building on a recent construction of G. Plebanek and the third named author, it is shown that a complemented subspace of a Banach lattice need not be linearly isomorphic to a Banach lattice. This solves a long-standing open question in…
We consider the class of all commutative reduced rings for which there exists a finite subset T of A such that all projections on quotients by prime ideals of A are surjective when restricted to T. A complete structure theorem is given for…
A commutative ring R is said to be coverable if it is the union of its proper subrings and said to be finitely coverable if it is the union of a finite number of them. In the latter case, we denote by {\sigma}(R) the minimal number of…
