Let $(R,\my)$ be a noetherian local ring and let $M$ be an $R$-module such that $\bigcap\limits_{n\geq 1} \my^n M=0.$ Let $\hat{M}$ be the completion of $M$. We show that Ass$(\hat{M})=$ Koatt$(M)$ holds in the following three cases: if…

Let $(R,\m,k)$ be a local (Noetherian) ring of positive prime characteristic $p$ and dimension $d$. Let $G_\dt$ be a minimal resolution of the residue field $k$, and for each $i\ge 0$, let $\gothic t_i(R) = \lim_{e\to \8}…

It is shown that there exists a normal uniform algebra, on a compact metrizable space, that fails to be strongly regular at some peak point. This answers a 31-year-old question of Joel Feinstein. Our example is R(K) for a certain compact…

We show that for an associative algebra A and its ideal I such that the I-adic topology on A coincides with the p-adic topology, the relative continuous K-theory pro-spectrum "lim"K(A_i, IA_i), where A_i :=A/p^i A, is naturally isogenous to…

Let u be a local homomorphism of noetherian local rings forming part of a commutative square vf=gu. We give some conditions on the square which imply that u is formally smooth. This result encapsulates a variety of (apparently unrelated)…

The dimension of any module over an algebra of affiliated operators ${\mathcal U}$ of a finite von Neumann algebra ${\mathcal A}$ is defined using a trace on ${\mathcal A}.$ All zero-dimensional ${\mathcal U}$-modules constitute the torsion…

We prove the following. Let $R$ be a Noetherian ring, $B$ a finitely generated $R$-algebra, and $A$ a pure $R$-subalgebra of $B$. Then $A$ is finitely generated over $R$.

By finding a p-adic obstruction, we construct many examples of positive characteristic complete noetherian local rings which do not admit any module-finite Cohen-Macaulay extension. These examples should be contrasted with a result of…

For a ring $A$, we consider the question whether every bounded above cochain complex of injective $A$-modules which is acyclic is null-homotopic. We show that if $A$ is left and right noetherian and has a dualizing complex, then this…

Let $A$ be a nondegenerate dimer (or ghor) algebra on a torus, and let $Z$ be its center. Using cyclic contractions, we show the following are equivalent: $A$ is noetherian; $Z$ is noetherian; $A$ is a noncommutative crepant resolution;…

We obtain a characterization of left perfect rings via superstability of the class of flat left modules with pure embeddings. $\mathbf{Theorem.}$ For a ring $R$ the following are equivalent. - $R$ is left perfect. - The class of flat left…

The classical Noether Normalization Lemma states that if $S$ is a finitely generated algebra over a field $k$, then there exist elements $x_1,\dots,x_n$ which are algebraically independent over $k$ such that $S$ is a finite module over…

Let $k$ be a field. In this paper, we introduce the notions of $\textit{reduction order}$ and $\textit{reduction-factorization}$ on words, and use them to show that any right or left Noetherian pointed Hopf algebra over $k$ is affine. This…

Perfect graphs form one of the distinguished classes of finite simple graphs. In 2006, Chudnovsky, Robertson, Seymour and Thomas proved that a graph is perfect if and only if it has no odd holes and no odd antiholes as induced subgraphs,…

For a finite group acting on a polynomial ring, the Chevalley-Shephard-Todd Theorem proves that the fixed subring is isomorphic to a polynomial ring if and only if the group is generated by pseudo-reflections. In recent years, progress was…

We completely characterize when the algebra of an ample groupoid with coefficients in an arbitrary unital ring is von Neumann regular and, more generally, when the algebra of a graded ample groupoid is graded von Neumann regular. Our main…

A problem of completing a linear map on C*-algebras to a completely positive map is analyzed. It is shown that whenever such a completion is feasible there exists a unique minimal completion. This theorem is used to show that under some…

We show that any homomorphism between Noetherian $F$-finite rings can be factored into a regular morphism between Noetherian $F$-finite rings followed by a surjection. This result establishes an analog of the 'smooth-by-surjective'…

There are several theorems describing the intricate relationship between flatness and associated primes over commutative Noetherian rings. However, associated primes are known to act badly over non-Noetherian rings, so one needs a suitable…

We prove that a Noetherian ring $R$ is a splinter if and only if for every equidimensional surjective morphism $\operatorname{Spec}(S) \to \operatorname{Spec}(R)$, the map $R \to S$ is pure. This yields a large, nontrivial class of ring…
