Let $n$ and $k$ be positive integers, and $f_n(k)$ (resp. $g_n(k)$) be the number of unital subrings (resp. unital irreducible subrings) of $\mathbb{Z}^n$ of index $k$. The numbers $f_n(k)$ are coefficients of certain zeta functions of…

It is well-known that for each fixed $n$ and $e$, the number of subgroups of index $p^e$ in $\mathbb{Z}^n$ is a polynomial in $p$. Is this true for \emph{subrings} in $\mathbb{Z}^n$ of index $p^e$? Let $f_n(k)$ denote the number of subrings…

Let $f_n(k)$ be the number of subrings of index $k$ in $\mathbb{Z}^n$. We show that results of Brakenhoff imply a lower bound for the asymptotic growth of subrings in $\mathbb{Z}^n$, improving upon lower bounds given by Kaplan, Marcinek,…

We define a primitive index of an integer in a sequence to be the index of the term with the integer as a primitive divisor. For the sequences $k^u+h^u$ and $k^u-h^u$, we discern a formula to find the primitive indexes of any composite…

The covering number of an associative ring $R$ is the minimal number of proper subrings whose union is $R$. We establish a strategy to classify unital rings of a given finite covering number, and obtain a classification of unital rings…

In this short note we count the finite semirings up to isomorphism, and up to isomorphism and anti-isomorphism for some small values of $n$; for which we utilise the existing library of small semigroups in the GAP package Smallsemi.

We establish basic results on subrings of finite commutative rings and closely related rings. Among other applications we calculate the number of maximal subrings of a finite commutative local ring.

A subfactor is an inclusion $N \subset M$ of von Neumann algebras with trivial centers. The simplest example comes from the fixed points of a group action $M^G \subset M$, and subfactors can be thought of as fixed points of more general…

We define the finite number ring ${\Bbb Z}_n [\sqrt [m] r]$ where $m,n$ are positive integers and $r$ in an integer akin to the definition of the Gaussian integer ${\Bbb Z}[i]$. This idea is also introduced briefly in [7]. By definition,…

In many simple integral domains, such as $\mathbb{Z}$ or $\mathbb{Z}[i]$, there is a straightforward procedure to determine if an element is prime by simply reducing to a direct check of finitely many potential divisors. Despite the fact…

Let F_q be the finite field of q elements. Let H be a multiplicative subgroup of F_q^*. For a positive integer k and element b\in F_q, we give a sharp estimate for the number of k-element subsets of H which sum to b.

In this paper, we compute the number of distinct centralizers of some classes of finite rings. We then characterize all finite rings with $n$ distinct centralizers for any positive integer $n \leq 5$. Further we give some connections…

We derive new formulas for the number of unordered (distinct) factorizations with $k$ parts of a positive integer $n$ as sums over the partitions of $k$ and an auxiliary function, the number of partitions of the prime exponents of $n$,…

We provide a family of group measure space II_1 factors for which all finite index subfactors can be explicitly listed. In particular, the set of all indices of irreducible subfactors can be computed. Concrete examples show that this index…

In this note we study the distribution of the subrings of $\mathbb Z[t]/(t^4)$ and prove two results. The first result gives an asymptotic formula for the number of subrings of $\mathbb Z[t]/(t^4)$ of bounded index. The method of proof of…

Let $\mathfrak{o}$ be a compact discrete valuation ring and $n\geq 2$. We introduce a method to study the cotype zeta function of subalgebras of $\mathfrak{o}^n$. This multivariable series encodes the number of finite-index subalgebras…

Let R be a finite unitary ring whose group of units is not solvable but all groups of units of all its proper subrings are solvable. In this paper we classify these rings and show that all finite rings of order $p^n$ for $n < 5$ and some of…

An integer composition of a nonnegative integer $n$ is a tuple $(\pi_1,\ldots,\pi_k)$ of nonnegative integers whose sum is $n$; the $\pi_i$'s are called the parts of the composition. For fixed number $k$ of parts, the number of $f$-weighted…
