Let K denote an algebraically closed field. We study the relation between an ideal I in K[x1,...,xn] and its cross sections I_a=I+<x1-a>. In particular, we study under what conditions I can be recovered from the set I_S={(a,I_a):a in S}…
Motivated by situations in which the removal of a zero (a.k.a., an absorbing element) from a semigroup yields a subsemigroup with another zero, sets of quasi-zeros (a.k.a., quasi-absorbing elements) are introduced as well as primitive…
We compute the primary decomposition of certain ideals generated by subsets of minors in a generic matrix or in a generic symmetric matrix, or subsets of Pfaffians in a generic skew-symmetric matrix. Specifically, the ideals we consider are…
In this paper we study ideals generated by quite general sets of 2-minors of an $m \times n$-matrix of indeterminates. The sets of 2-minors are defined by collections of cells and include 2-sided ladders. For convex collections of cells it…
We show that many large cardinal notions up to measurability can be characterized through the existence of certain filters for small models of set theory. This correspondence will allow us to obtain a canonical way in which to assign ideals…
A clone on a set X is a set of finitary operations on X which contains all projections and which is moreover closed under functional composition. Ordering all clones on X by inclusion, one obtains a complete algebraic lattice, called the…
Among the several types of closures of an ideal $I$ that have been defined and studied in the past decades, the integral closure $\bar{I}$ has a central place being one of the earliest and most relevant. Despite this role, it is often a…
We characterize the ideal of continuous-trace elements in a separable transformation-group $C^{*}$-algebra $C_0(X)\times G$. In addition, we identify the largest Fell ideal, the largest liminal ideal and the largest postliminal ideal.
Ideals in the ring of power series in three variables can be classified based on algebra structures on their minimal free resolutions. The classification is incomplete in the sense that it remains open which algebra structures actually…
In this paper we introduce the notion of I-convergence of sequences of k-dimensional subspaces of an inner product space, where I is an ideal of subsets of N, the set of all natural numbers and k in N. We also study some basic properties of…
The Joseph ideal is a special ideal in the universal enveloping algebra of a simple Lie algebra. For the classical groups, its uniqueness is equivalent to the existence of tensors with special properties. The existence of these tensors is…
We describe and classify countable Boolean rings (which may or may not have a multiplicative identity) with finitely many distinguished ideals whose elementary theory is countably categorical. This extends the description by Macintyre and…
Let $X$ be a first countable space which admits a non-trivial convergent sequence and let $\mathcal{I}$ be an analytic P-ideal. First, it is shown that the sets of $\mathcal{I}$-limit points of all sequences in $X$ are closed if and only if…
For a discrete group $G$, we use the natural correspondence between ideals in the Boolean algebra $ \mathcal{P}_G$ of subsets of $G$ and closed subsets in the Stone-$\check{C}$ech compactifi-cation $\beta G$ as a right topological semigroup…
We prove that it is consistent that the covering of the ideal of measure zero sets has countable cofinality.
This paper is about the local geometry of a real surfaces. It introduces machinery for studying families of subsets which are determined by conditions which are similar to base conditions, but also involve positivity/non-negativity. The…
In this paper we examine the commutativity of ideal extensions. We introduce methods of constructing such extensions, in particular we construct a noncommutative ring T which contains a central and idempotent ideal I such that T/I is a…
The aim of this work is to study duality of fractional ideals with respect to a fixed ideal and to investigate the relationship between value sets of pairs of dual ideals in admissible rings, a class of rings that contains the local rings…
In this paper, we view the collection of ideals of a commutative principal ideal ring from two perspectives: one as an ordered semigroup I(R) and the other as a category I_R . It is shown that I(R) is a regular ordered semigroup whereas I_R…
A notion of partial ideal for an operator algebra is a weakening the notion of ideal where the defining algebraic conditions are enforced only in the commutative subalgebras. We show that, in a von Neumann algebra, the ultraweakly closed…
