We take a unifying and new approach toward polynomial and trigonometric approximation in an arbitrary number of variables, resulting in a precise and general ready-to-use tool that anyone can easily apply in new situations of interest. The…

Let $\mathbb{K}$ denote an algebraically closed field and $A$ a free product of finitely many semisimple associative $\mathbb{K}$-algebras. We associate to $A$ a finite acyclic quiver $\Gamma$ and show that the category of finite…

Let $f: X\to Y$ be a proper surjective morphism of varieties defined over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. We prove that if $f$ has geometrically connected fibers then the induced homomorphism of $F$-divided…

A differential algebra of finite type over a field k is a filtered algebra A, such that the associated graded algebra is finite over its center, and the center is a finitely generated k-algebra. The prototypical example is the algebra of…

Consider a complex affine variety $\tilde V$ and a real analytic Zariski-dense submanifold V of $\tilde V$. We compare modules over the ring $O (\tilde V)$ of regular functions on $\tilde V$ with modules over the ring $C^\infty (V)$ of…

In this paper we study flat deformations of real subschemes of $\mathbb{P}^n$, hyperbolic with respect to a fixed linear subspace, i.e. admitting a finite surjective and real fibered linear projection. We show that the subset of the…

In this paper, the projectivity of a finitely generated flat module of a commutative ring is studied through its exterior powers and invariant factors and then various new results are obtained. Specially, the related results of Endo,…

Let $R$ be a semilocal principal ideal domain. Two algebraic objects over $R$ in which scalar extension makes sense (e.g. quadratic spaces) are said to be of the same genus if they become isomorphic after extending scalars to all…

We consider flat epimorphisms of commutative rings $R\to U$ such that, for every ideal $I\subset R$ for which $IU=U$, the quotient ring $R/I$ is semilocal of Krull dimension zero. Under these assumptions, we show that the projective…

As a formulation of 'codimension-two arguments' in invariant theory, we define a (rational) almost principal bundle. It is a principal bundle off closed subsets of codimension two or more. We discuss the behavior of the category of…

This a first step to develop a theory of smooth, etale and unramified morphisms between noetherian formal schemes. Our main tool is the complete module of differentials, that is a coherent sheaf whenever the map of formal schemes is of…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring. An $R$-module $M$ is said to be almost projective if ${\rm Ext}^1_R(M, N) = 0$ for any $R_{\mathfrak{m}}$-module $N$ and any maximal ideal $\mathfrak{m}$ of $R$. In this paper, we investigate rings $R$ over…

Let $X \overset{f}\longrightarrow S$ be a morphism of Noetherian schemes, with $S$ reduced. For any closed subscheme $Z$ of $X$ finite over $S$, let $j$ denote the open immersion $X\setminus Z \hookrightarrow X$. Koll\'ar asked whether for…

We study maximal almost rigid modules over a gentle algebra $A$. We prove that the number of indecomposable direct summands of every maximal almost rigid $A$-module is equal to the sum of the number of vertices and the number of arrows of…

It is proved in the paper that a Noetherian residually finite dimensional Hopf algebra is a flat module over any right Noetherian right coideal subalgebra. In the case of Hopf subalgebras we get faithful flatness. These results are obtained…

We establish a genericity property in the representation theory of a flat family of finite-dimensional algebras in the sense of Cline-Parshal-Scott. More precisely, we show that the decomposition matrices as introduced by Geck and Rouquier…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring with identity (not necessarily local) and $\frak a$ a proper ideal of $R$. We study the invariance of some classes of $\frak a$-relative Cohen-Macaulay modules under pure ring homomorphisms and ring…

Let A be a locally m-convex Fr\'echet algebra. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a cyclic Fr\'echet A-module X=A_+/I to be strictly flat, generalizing thereby a criterion of Helemskii and Sheinberg. To this end, we introduce…

We continue investigating the interaction between flatness and $\mathfrak{a}$-adic completion for infinitely generated modules over a commutative ring $A$. We introduce the concept of $\mathfrak{a}$-adic flatness, which is weaker than…

In this paper we continue our study of modules satisfying the prime radical condition ($\mathbb{P}$-radical modules), that was introduced in Part I (see \cite{BS}). Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. The purpose of this paper is…
