It is well-known that for any commutative unitary ring $\mathbf{R}$, the Serre conjecture ring $\mathbf{R}\langle X \rangle$, i.e., the localization of the univariate polynomial ring $\mathbf{R}[X]$ at monic polynomials, is a B\'ezout…
Let $\mf g$ be the Witt algebra or the positive Witt algebra. It is well known that the enveloping algebra $U(\mf g )$ has intermediate growth and thus infinite Gelfand-Kirillov (GK-) dimension. We prove that the GK-dimension of $U(\mf g)$…

We study integral structures of crystalline representations over an unramified extension $K / \mathbb{Q}_p$ with the help of an auxillary ring $A_{\textrm{exp}}$. This ring has the nice property that it contains the the fundamental period…
