We give conditions for when the tensor product of two positive maps between matrix algebras is a positive map. This happens when one map belongs to a symmetric mapping cone and the other to the dual cone. Necessary and sufficient conditions…

Let $\k$ be an algebraically closed field, let $\A$ be a finite dimensional $\k$-algebra and let $V$ be a $\A$-module with stable endomorphism ring isomorphic to $\k$. If $\A$ is self-injective then $V$ has a universal deformation ring…

We introduce a complete radical formula for modules over non-commutative rings which is the equivalence of a radical formula in the setting of modules defined over commutative rings. This gives a general frame work through which known…

Every irreducible finite-dimensional representation of the quantized enveloping algebra U_q(gl_n) can be extended to the corresponding quantum affine algebra via the evaluation homomorphism. We give in explicit form the necessary and…

Let $U$ be the enveloping algebra of a finite dimensional nonabelian Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ over a field of characteristic zero. We show that there is an open nonempty open subset $X$ of $U_1 = \mathfrak{g}\oplus K$ such that $U/Ux$ is…

For a connected semisimple algebraic group $G$, we consider some special infinite series of tensor products of simple $G$-modules whose $G$-fixed point spaces are at most one-dimensional. We prove that their existence is closely related to…

A classical theorem by Jacobson says that a ring in which every element $x$ satisfies the equation $x^n=x$ for some $n>1$ is commutative. According to Birkhoff's Completeness Theorem, if $n$ is fixed, there must be an equational proof of…

Let R be a commutative Noetherian domain, and let M and N be finitely generated R-modules. We give new criteria for determining when M tensor N has torsion. We also give constructive formulas for producing a module in the isomorphism class…

Let R be a ring (not necessarily commutative). A left R-module is said to be cotorsion if Ext 1 R (G, M) = 0 for any flat R-module G. It is well known that each pure-injective left R-module is cotorsion, but the converse does not hold: for…

It is proved that a commutative ring is clean if and only if it is Gelfand with a totally disconnected maximal spectrum. Commutative rings for which each indecomposable module has a local endomorphism ring are studied. These rings are clean…

The prototype of mutually independent systems are systems which are localized in spacelike separated regions. In the framework of locally covariant quantum field theory we show that the commutativity of observables in spacelike separated…

The long-standing Auslander and Reiten Conjecture states that a finitely generated module over a finite-dimensional algebra is projective if certain Ext-groups vanish. Several authors, including Avramov, Buchweitz, Iyengar, Jorgensen,…

The total multiplicity in the decomposition into irreducibles of the tensor product i x j of two irreducible representations of a simple Lie algebra is invariant under conjugation of one of them sum_k N_{i j}^{k}= sum_k N_{ibar j}^{k}. This…

Given a Hopf algebra H, we study modules and bimodules over an algebra A that carry an H-action, as well as their morphisms and connections. Bimodules naturally arise when considering noncommutative analogues of tensor bundles. For…

We prove that the theory of all modules over the ring of algebraic integers is decidable.

We explore questions of projectivity and tensor products of modules for finite dimensional Hopf algebras. We construct many classes of examples in which tensor powers of nonprojective modules are projective and tensor products of modules in…

A C*-algebra $A$ is C*-reflexive if any countably generated Hilbert C*-module $M$ over $A$ is C*-reflexive, i.e. the second dual module $M''$ coincides with $M$. We show that a commutative C*-algebra $A$ is C*-reflexive if and only if for…

We generalize the tensor product theory for modules for a vertex operator algebra previously developed in a series of papers by the first two authors to suitable module categories for a ''conformal vertex algebra'' or even more generally,…

In this paper, the well-known Faulkner construction is revisited and adapted to include the super case, which gives a bijective correspondence between generalized Jordan (super)pairs and faithful Lie (super)algebra (super)modules, under…

Let X be a smooth algebraic curve of genus g>=2. A stable vector bundle over X of degree d, rank n with at least k sections is called a Brill-Noether bundle of type (n,d,k). By tensoring coherent systems, we prove that most of the known…
