Regarding non-unique factorization of integer-valued polynomials over a discrete valuation domain $(R,M)$ with finite residue field, it is known that there exist absolutely irreducible elements, that is, irreducible elements all of whose…

We continue the first and second authors' study of $q$-commutative power series rings $R=k_q[[x_1,\ldots,x_n]]$ and Laurent series rings $L=k_q[[x^{\pm 1}_1,\ldots,x^{\pm 1}_n]]$, specializing to the case in which the commutation parameters…

An integral domain $D,$ with quotient field $K,$ is a $v$-domain if for each nonzero finitely generated ideal $A$ of $D$ we have $(AA^{-1})^{-1}=D.$ It is well known that if $D$ is a $v$-domain$,$ then some quotient ring $D_{S}$ of $D$ may…

Let $D$ be a Dedekind domain with infinitely many maximal ideals, all of finite index, and $K$ its quotient field. Let $\operatorname{Int}(D) = \{f\in K[x] \mid f(D) \subseteq D\}$ be the ring of integer-valued polynomials on $D$. Given any…

Regarding polynomial functions on a subset $S$ of a non-commutative ring $R$, that is, functions induced by polynomials in $R[x]$ (whose variable commutes with the coefficients), we show connections between, on one hand, sets $S$ such that…

Let $V$ be a valuation ring of a global field $K$. We show that for all positive integers $k$ and $1 < n_1 \leq \ldots \leq n_k$ there exists an integer-valued polynomial on $V$, that is, an element of $\text{Int}(V) = \{ f \in K[X] \mid…

Let $F$ be a field, $p$ a prime number, $X$ an indeterminate over $F$, $D_n =F[X^{\frac{1}{p^n}}, X^{-\frac{1}{p^n}}]$ for each integer $n \geq 0$ and $D = \bigcup\limits_{n\in\mathbb{N}_0}D_n.$ Then $D$ is a one-dimensional B{\'e}zout…

This paper studies the class of unique factorial domains $B$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ which are affine or unirational over $k$ and which admit an effective unmixed $\mathbb{Z}^{d-1}$-grading with $B_0=k$, where $d$ is the…

Baer's Criterion of injectivity implies that injectivity of a module is a factorization property w.r.t. a single monomorphism. Using the notion of a cotorsion pair, we study generalizations and dualizations of factorization properties in…

This is a continuation of a previous paper by the same authors. In the former paper, it was proved that in order to obtain local uniformization for valuations centered on local domains, it is enough to prove it for rank one valuations. In…

Just as knowing some roots of a polynomial allows one to factor it, a well-known result provides a factorization of any scalar differential operator given a set of linearly independent functions in its kernel. This note provides a…

We extend the Bass-Matlis characterization of local Noetherian divisorial domains to the non-Noetherian case. This result is then used to study the following question: If a domain D is w-divisorial, that is, if each w-ideal of D is…

The product matrix of a finite commutative ring $R=\{x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n\}$ and an element $u \in R$ is the matrix $A_u(R)=[a_{ij}]$, where $a_{ij}=1$ if $x_ix_j=u$, and $a_{ij}=0$ otherwise. This provides a natural extension of the concept…

We consider properties of polynomials with coefficients in division rings. A theorem on the decomposition of a polynomial with coefficients in an arbitrary division ring is obtained. It is shown that if a non-central element is not a root…

We consider bivariate polynomials over the skew field of quaternions, where the indeterminates commute with all coefficients and with each other. We analyze existence of univariate factorizations, that is, factorizations with univariate…

We give several criteria for a ring to be a UFD including generalizations of some criteria due to P. Samuel. These criteria are applied to construct, for any field k, (1) a Z-graded non-noetherian rational UFD of dimension three over k, and…

Let $D$ be a Krull domain admitting a prime element with finite residue field and let $K$ be its quotient field. We show that for all positive integers $k$ and $1 < n_1 \leq \ldots \leq n_k$ there exists an integer-valued polynomial on $D$,…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. The structure theorem says that $R$ is a PIR (resp., UFR, general ZPI-ring, $\pi$-ring) if and only if $R$ is a finite direct product of PIDs (resp., UFDs, Dedekind domains, $\pi$-domains) and…

Let $f : A \rightarrow B$ be a ring homomorphism and $J$ be an ideal of $B$. In this paper, we give a characterization of zero divisors of the amalgamation which is a generalization of Maimani's and Yassemi's work (see \cite{y}). Also, we…

In this paper I consider all possible properties from commutative algebra for polynomial composites and monoid domains. The aim is full characterization of these structures. I start with the examination of group, ring, modules properties,…
