Terwilliger algebras are a subalgebra of a matrix algebra constructed from an association scheme. In 2010, Tanaka defined what it means for a Terwilliger algebra to be almost commutative and gave five equivalent conditions for a Terwilliger…

Slicing a module into semisimple ones is useful to study modules. Loewy structures provide a means of doing so. To establish the Loewy structures of projective modules over a finite dimensional symmetric algebra over a field $F$, the…

We prove elementary recursive bounds in the degrees for Positivstellensatz and Hilbert 17-th problem, which is the expression of a nonnegative polynomial as a sum of squares of rational functions. We obtain a tower of five exponentials. A…

We give several conditions on certain families of Douglas algebras that imply that the minimal envelope of the given algebra is the algebra itself. We also prove that the minimal envelope of the intersection of two Douglas algebras is the…

We call an $\alpha \in \mathbb{R}$ regainingly approximable if there exists a computable nondecreasing sequence $(a_n)_n$ of rational numbers converging to $\alpha$ with $\alpha - a_n < 2^{-n}$ for infinitely many $n \in \mathbb{N}$. We…

We consider for $d\geq 1$ the graded commutative $\mathbb{Q}$-algebra $\mathcal{A}(d):=H^*(\operatorname{Hilb}^d(\mathbb{C}^2);\mathbb{Q})$, which is also connected to the study of generalised Hurwitz spaces by work of the first author.…

We show that the module of integral points on a Drinfeld module satisfies a an analogue of Dirichlet's unit theorem, despite its failure to be finitely generated. As a consequence, we obtain a construction of a canonical finitely generated…

We prove the last of five outstanding conjectures made by R.M. Robinson from 1965 concerning small cyclotomic integers. In particular, given any cyclotomic integer $\beta$ all of whose conjugates have absolute value at most 5, we prove that…

Recall that an algebraic module is a KG-module that satisfies a polynomial with integer coefficients, with addition and multiplication given by direct sum and tensor product. In this article we prove that non-periodic algebraic modules are…

Using a family of graded algebra structures on a planar algebra and a family of traces coming from random matrix theory, we obtain a tower of non-commutative probability spaces, naturally associated to a given planar algebra. The associated…

We show that, in a highest weight category with duality, the endomorphism algebra of a tilting object is naturally a cellular algebra. Our proof generalizes a recent construction of Andersen, Stroppel, and Tubbenhauer. This result raises…

We show that the common theory of all modules over a tubular algebra (over a recursive algebraically closed field) is decidable. This result supports a long standing conjecture of Mike Prest which says that a finite-dimensional algebra…

Let $n$ be a positive integer. For any integer $a$, we say that $a$ is idempotent modulo $n$ if $a^2\equiv a\pmod n$. The $n$-modular Erd\H{o}s-Burgess constant is the smallest positive integer $\ell$ such that any $\ell$ integers contain…

Existence of superdecomposable pure-injective modules reflects complexity in the category of finite-dimensional representations over an algebra. Such an existence occurs when an algebra is non-domestic; a conjecture due to M. Prest. G.…

This paper gives the recursion formula for mixed multiplicities of maximal degrees with respect to joint reductions of ideals, which is one of important results in the mixed multiplicity theory. Using this result, we give consequences on…

We introduce a sequence $P_{2n}$ of monic reciprocal polynomials with integer coefficients having the central coefficients fixed. We prove that the ratio between number of nonunimodular roots of $P_{2n}$ and its degree $d$ has a limit when…

We set up a homological algebra for N-complexes, which are graded modules together with a degree -1 endomorphism d satisfying d^N=0. We define Tor- and Ext-groups for N-complexes and we compute them in terms of their classical counterparts…

The conjugation action of the complex orthogonal group on the polynomial functions on $n \times n$ matrices gives rise to a graded algebra of invariant polynomials. A spanning set of this algebra is in bijective correspondence to a set of…

In this paper, we introduce and study a class of algebras which we call ada algebras. An artin algebra is ada if every indecomposable projective and every indecomposable injective module lies in the union of the left and the right parts of…

Dlab and Ringel showed that algebras being quasi-hereditary in all total orders for indices of primitive idempotents becomes hereditary. So, we are interested in for which orders a given quasi-hereditary algebra is again quasi-hereditary.…
