P.J.Cameron introduced the orbit algebra of a permutation group and conjectured that this algebra is an integral domain if and only if the group has no finite orbit. We prove that this conjecture holds and in fact that the age algebra of a…

A Puiseux monoid is an additive submonoid of the nonnegative cone of the rational numbers. We say that a Puiseux monoid $M$ is exponential provided that there exist a positive rational $r$ and a set $S$ consisting of nonnegative integers,…

A semidomain is an additive submonoid of an integral domain that is closed under multiplication and contains the identity element. Although atomicity and divisibility in integral domains have been systematically investigated for more than…

A semidomain is a subsemiring of an integral domain. We call a semidomain $S$ additively reduced if $0$ is the only invertible element of the monoid $(S, +)$, while we say that $S$ is additively Furstenberg if every non-invertible element…

A commutative ring $R$ is stable if every non-zero ideal $I$ of $R$ is projective over its ring of endomorphisms. Motivated by a paper of Bass in the 1960s, stable rings have received wide attention in the literature ever since then. Much…

Let $S$ be a submonoid of a free Abelian group of finite rank. We show that if $k$ is a field of prime characteristic such that the monoid $k$-algebra $k[S]$ is split $F$-regular, then $k[S]$ is a finitely generated $k$-algebra, or…

In the setting of product systems over group-embeddable monoids, we consider nuclearity of the associated Toeplitz C*-algebra in relation to nuclearity of the coefficient algebra. Our work goes beyond the known cases of single…

Given an action of a monoid $T$ on a ring $A$ by ring endomorphisms, and an Ore subset $S$ of $T$, a general construction of a fractional skew monoid ring $S^{\rm op} * A * T$ is given, extending the usual constructions of skew group rings…

We give a negative answer to Problem 19 of Cahen, Fontana, Frisch, and Glaz concerning the flatness and freeness of rings of integer-valued polynomials. We construct an explicit one-dimensional Noetherian local domain D over the field with…

Let $I$ be a square-free monomial ideal in a polynomial ring $R=K[x_1,\ldots, x_n]$ over a field $K$, $\mathfrak{m}=(x_1, \ldots, x_n)$ be the graded maximal ideal of $R$, and $\{u_1, \ldots, u_{\beta_1(I)}\}$ be a maximal independent set…

Let $S$ be a nonnegative semiring of the real line, called here a positive semiring. We study factorizations in both the additive monoid $(S,+)$ and the multiplicative monoid $(S\setminus\{0\}, \cdot)$. In particular, we investigate when,…

We investigate the notion of \textit{semi-nil clean} rings, defined as those rings in which each element can be expressed as a sum of a periodic and a nilpotent element. Among our results, we show that if $R$ is a semi-nil clean NI ring,…

Let M be an irreducible normal algebraic monoid with unit group G. It is known that G admits a Rosenlicht decomposition, G=G_antG_aff, where G_ant is the maximal anti-affine subgroup of G, and G_aff the maximal normal connected affine…

Formal power series come up in several areas such as formal language theory , algebraic and enumerative combinatorics, semigroup theory, number theory etc. This paper focuses on the set x R[[x]] consisting of formal power series with zero…

In this note, we define the Burnside ring of a monoid, generalizing the construction for groups. After giving foundational definitions, we characterize transitive M-sets and their automorphisms, then prove a structure theorem for a broad…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring of dimension $d$, $S = R[X]$ or $R[X, 1/X]$ and $P$ a finitely generated projective $S$ module of rank $r$. Then $P$ is cancellative if $P$ has a unimodular element and $r \geq d + 1$. Moreover if $r \geq \dim…

We investigate $^*$-homomorphisms with nuclear dimension equal to zero. In the framework of classification of $^*$-homo-morphisms, we characterise such maps as those that can be approximately factorised through an AF-algebra. Along the way,…

Let $H$ be a multiplicatively written monoid with identity $1_H$ (in particular, a group). We denote by $\mathcal P_{\rm fin,\times}(H)$ the monoid obtained by endowing the collection of all finite subsets of $H$ containing a unit with the…

Rigid monoidal 1-categories are ubiquitous throughout quantum algebra and low-dimensional topology. We study a generalization of this notion, namely rigid algebras in an arbitrary monoidal 2-category. Examples of rigid algebras include…

Let $I$ denote an ideal in a commutative Noetherian ring $R$. Let $M$ be an $R$-module. The $I$-adic completion is defined by $\hat{M}^I = \varprojlim{}_{\alpha} M/I^{\alpha}M$. Then $M$ is called $I$-adic complete whenever the natural…
