We study the semiring $\mathbb{N}_0[\alpha]$ as an additive monoid where $\alpha$ is a positive real algebraic number. In the atomic case, the atoms of $\mathbb{N}_0[\alpha]$ are precisely the powers $\alpha^n$ up to a certain nonnegative…

Given a field $F$, an \'etale extension $L/F$ and an Azumaya algebra $A/L$, one knows that there are extensions $E/F$ such that $A \otimes_F E$ is a split algebra over $L \otimes_F E$. In this paper we bound the degree of a minimal…

A finite separable extension $E$ of a field $F$ is called primitive if there are no intermediate extensions. It is called solvable if the group $\mathrm{Gal}(\hat E|F)$ of automorphisms of its galoisian closure $\hat E$ over $F$ is…

We investigate the properties of word lengths of elements from a three-reflection symmetric generating set of the dihedral group $D_n$. Specifically, we provide the upper bound $\lambda_1(D_n,S) \leq \lfloor\frac{n}{2}\rfloor + 1$ for a…

We introduce the algebraic entropy for endomorphisms of arbitrary abelian groups, appropriately modifying existing notions of entropy. The basic properties of the algebraic entropy are given, as well as various examples. The main result of…

Ellenberg and Gijswijt gave recently a new exponential upper bound for the size of three-term arithmetic progression free sets in $({\mathbb Z_p})^n$, where $p$ is a prime. Petrov summarized their method and generalized their result to…

We construct an addition and a multiplication on the set of planar binary trees, closely related to addition and multiplication on the integers. This gives rise to a new kind of (noncommutative) arithmetic theory. The price to pay for this…

We introduce a new method of constructing complete sequences of key polynomials for simple extensions of tame fields. In our approach the key polynomials are taken to be the minimal polynomials over the base field of suitably constructed…

Let $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ be a finite field with $q^n$ elements and $r$ be a positive divisor of $q^n-1$. An element $\alpha \in \mathbb{F}_{q^n}^*$ is called $r$-primitive if its multiplicative order is $(q^n-1)/r$. Also, $\alpha \in…

Let $S$ be the numerical semigroup generated by three consecutive numbers $a,a+1,a+2$, where $a\in\mathbb{N}$, $a\geq 3$. We describe the elements of $S$ whose factorizations have all the same length, as well as the set of factorizations of…

Let $E\supseteq F$ be a field extension and $M$ a graded Lie algebra of maximal class over $E$. We investigate the $F$-subalgebras $L$ of $M$, generated by elements of degree $1$. We provide conditions for $L$ being either ideally…

The determinantal complexity of a polynomial $P \in \mathbb{F}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ over a field $\mathbb{F}$ is the dimension of the smallest matrix $M$ whose entries are affine functions in $\mathbb{F}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ such that $P =…

Given a prime power $q$ and an integer $n\geq2$, we establish a sufficient condition for the existence of a primitive pair $(\alpha,f(\alpha))$ where $\alpha \in \mathbb{F}_q$ and $f(x) \in \mathbb{F}_q(x)$ is a rational function of degree…

For the polynomial $f(z) \in \mathbb{Q}[z]$, we consider the Zsigmondy set $\mathcal{Z}(f,0)$ associated to the numerators of the sequence $\{f^n(0)\}_{n \geq 0}$. In this paper, we provide an upper bound on the largest element of…

We introduce the notion of primitive elements in arbitrary truncated $p$-divisible groups. By design, the scheme of primitive elements is finite and locally free over the base. Primitive elements generalize the "points of exact order $N$,"…

An axial algebra over the field $\mathbb F$ is a commutative algebra generated by idempotents whose adjoint action has multiplicity-free minimal polynomial. For semisimple associative algebras this leads to sums of copies of $\mathbb F$.…

The number of Frattini chief factors or of chief factors which are complemented by a maximal subalgebra of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra $L$ is the same in every chief series for $L$, by \cite[Theorem 2.3]{[11]}. However, this is not the…

We continue the program of systematic study of extended HOMFLY polynomials. Extended polynomials depend on infinitely many time variables, are close relatives of integrable tau-functions, and depend on the choice of the braid representation…

Parabolic subalgebras $\frak{p}$ of semisimple Lie algebras define a $\Bbb{Z}$-grading of the Lie algebra. If there exists a nilpotent element in the first graded part of $\frak{g}$ on which the adjoint group of $\frak{p}$ acts with a dense…
