The content of a polynomial over a ring $R$ is a well understood notion. Ohm and Rush generalized this concept of a content map to an arbitrary ring extension of $R$, although it can behave quite badly. We examine five properties an algebra…

One says that a ring homomorphism $R \rightarrow S$ is Ohm-Rush if extension commutes with arbitrary intersection of ideals, or equivalently if for any element $f\in S$, there is a unique smallest ideal of $R$ whose extension to $S$…

The connection between a univariate polynomial having locally principal content and the content function acting like a homomorphism (the so-called Gaussian property) has been explored by many authors. In this work, we extend several such…

Broadening existing results in the literature to much wider classes of rings, we prove among other things: 1. Reduced quotients of excellent regular rings of characteristic $p$ admit big test elements, 2. The set of F-jumping numbers of a…

This paper contributes to the study of the prime spectrum and dimension theory of symbolic Rees algebra over Noetherian domains. We first establish some general results on the prime ideal structure of subalgebras of affine domains, which…

The purpose of this paper is to prove that certain limits of polynomial rings are themselves polynomial rings, and show how this observation can be used to deduce some interesting results in commutative algebra. In particular, we give two…

Let $A$ be a right noetherian algebra over a field $k$. If the base field extension $A \otimes_k K$ remains right noetherian for all extension fields $K$ of $k$, then $A$ is called stably right noetherian over $k$. We develop an inductive…

Let $\Omega\subset{\mathbb R}^n$ be a relatively compact domain. A finite collection of real-valued functions on $\Omega$ is called a \emph{Noetherian chain} if the partial derivatives of each function are expressible as polynomials in the…

Let $S^{\cdot}$ be a noetherian graded algebra over a commutative $k$-algebra $A$, where $k$ is a commutative ring, and assume it is a module over a Lie algebroid ${\mathfrak g}_{A/k}$. If $S^\cdot$ is semi-simple over ${\mathfrak g}_{A/k}$…

The aim of these notes is to study some of the structural aspects of the ring of arithmetical functions. We prove that this ring is neither Noetherian nor Artinian. Furthermore, we construct various types of prime ideals. We also give an…

An Ohm-Rush algebra $R \rightarrow S$ is called *McCoy* if for any zero-divisor $f$ in $S$, its content $c(f)$ has nonzero annihilator in $R$, because McCoy proved this when $S=R[x]$. We answer a question of Nasehpour by giving an example…

Our starting point is Mumford's conjecture, on representations of Chevalley groups over fields, as it is phrased in the preface of "Geometric Invariant Theory". After extending the conjecture appropriately, we show that it holds over an…

We introduce a theory of geometry for nonnoetherian commutative algebras with finite Krull dimension. In particular, we establish new notions of normalization and height: depiction (a special noetherian overring) and geometric codimension.…

A ring has bounded factorizations if every cancellative nonunit $a \in R$ can be written as a product of atoms and there is a bound $\lambda(a)$ on the lengths of such factorizations. The bounded factorization property is one of the most…

Constructions are given of Noetherian maximal orders that are finitely presented algebras over a field K, defined by monomial relations. In order to do this, it is shown that the underlying homogeneous information determines the algebraic…

In Part I we gave a polynomial growth lower-bound for the number of nodal domains of a Hecke-Maass cuspform in a compact part of the modular surface, assuming a Lindel\"of hypothesis. That was a consequence of a topological argument and…

Graded Artinian algebras can be regarded as algebraic analogues of cohomology rings (in even degrees) of compact topological manifolds. In this analogy, a free extension of a base ring with a fiber ring corresponds to a fiber bundle over a…

We introduce the relative Haagerup approximation property for a unital, expected inclusion of arbitrary von Neumann algebras and show that if the smaller algebra is finite then the notion only depends on the inclusion itself, and not on the…

Non-archimedean fields with restricted analytic functions may not support a full exponential function, but they always have partial exponentials defined in convex subrings. On face of this, we study the first order theory of the class of…

Let K be a field of characteristic zero. Motivated by the conjecture that an enveloping algebra U(g) is Noetherian only if g is finite dimensional, we define the notion of weakly Noetherian Lie algebras. The main result, Theorem A, states…
