Given two rings $R \subseteq S$, $S$ is said to be a minimal ring extension of $R$ if $R$ is a maximal subring of $S$. In this article, we study minimal extensions of an arbitrary ring $R$, with particular focus on those possessing nonzero…

We characterize extensions of commutative rings $R \subseteq S$ whose sets of subextensions $[R,S]$ are finite ({\it i.e.} $R\subseteq S$ has the FIP property) and are Boolean lattices, that we call Boolean FIP extensions. Some…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. The ring $R\times R$ can be viewed as an extension of $R$ via the diagonal map $\Delta: R \hookrightarrow R\times R$, given by $\Delta(r) = (r, r)$ for all $r\in R$. It is shown that, for any $a,…

Let $G$ be a subgroup of the automorphism group of a commutative ring with identity $T$. Let $R$ be a subring of $T$ such that $R$ is invariant under the action by $G$. We show $R^G\subset T^G$ is a minimal ring extension whenever $R\subset…

We study etale extensions of rings that have FIP.

For a commutative ring R we investigate the property that the sets of minimal primes of finitely generated ideals of R is always finite. We prove this property passes to polynomial ring extensions (in an arbitrary number of variables) over…

If $R\subseteq S$ is a ring extension of commutative unital rings, the poset $[R,S]$ of $R$-subalgebras of $S$ is called catenarian if it verifies the Jordan-H\"older property. This property has already been studied by Dobbs and Shapiro for…

We revisit the concept of special algebras, also known as \textit{purely inseparable ring extensions}. This concept extends the notion of purely inseparable field extensions to the more general context of extensions of commutative rings. We…

The paper deals with ring extensions $R\subseteq S$ and the poset $[R,S]$ of their subextensions, with a special look at FCP extensions (extensions such that $[R,S]$ is Artinian and Noetherian). When the extension has FCP, we show that…

In this paper, we study the small finitistic dimension of a commutative ring from the viewpoint of finitistic flat homological algebra. Using the class $FPR(R)$ of modules admitting finite projective resolutions, we investigate the…

Let R be a commutative ring with identity, S be a multiplicatively closed subset of R, and let M be an R-module. The aim of this paper is to introduce the notion of S-secondary submodules of M as a generalization of secondary submodules of…

The small finitistic dimension $\fPD(R)$ of a ring $R$ is defined to be the supremum of projective dimensions of $R$-modules with finite projective resolutions. In this paper, we investigate the small finitistic dimensions of four types of…

We derive basic properties of minimal extensions of local rings and their restrictions to subrings. Some applications are included to subrings of truncated polynomial rings.

We consider the class of all commutative reduced rings for which there exists a finite subset T of A such that all projections on quotients by prime ideals of A are surjective when restricted to T. A complete structure theorem is given for…

Let $R_1$ be a commutative ring, let $R_2$ be a finitely generated extension ring of $R_1$, and let $S$ be a ring that is intermediate between $R_1$ and $R_2$. For $R_1 = R[x]$ and $R_2 = R[x,y]$, this paper gives simple combinatorial…

We study when $R \to S$ has the property that prime ideals of $R$ extend to prime ideals or the unit ideal of $S$, and the situation where this property continues to hold after adjoining the same indeterminates to both rings. We prove that…

We characterize some types of FIP and FCP ring extensions $R \subset S$, where $S$ is not an integral domain and $R$ may not be an integral domain. In this paper S is mostly a product of rings related to R and also the idealization of an…

We are interested in characterising pairs $S,T$ of $F$-linear subspaces in a field extension $L/F$ such that the linear span $ST$ of the set of products of elements of $S$ and of elements of $T$ has small dimension. Our central result is a…

The aim of this article is to describe necessary and sufficient conditions for simplicity of Ore extension rings, with an emphasis on differential polynomial rings. We show that a differential polynomial ring, R[x;id,\delta], is simple if…

A unimodular $2\times 2$ matrix with entries in a commutative $R$ is called extendable (resp.\ simply extendable) if it extends to an invertible $3\times 3$ matrix (resp.\ invertible $3\times 3$ matrix whose $(3,3)$ entry is $0$). We obtain…
