Say that $(x, y, z)$ is a positive primitive integral Pythagorean triple if $x, y, z$ are positive integers without common factors satisfying $x^2 + y^2 = z^2$. An old theorem of Berggren gives three integral invertible linear…

A *-ring $R$ is called a strongly nil-*-clean ring if every element of $R$ is the sum of a projection and a nilpotent element that commute with each other. In this article, we show that $R$ is a strongly nil-*-clean ring if and only if…

Let G be a connected reductive group defined over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p > 0. The purpose of this paper is two-fold. First, when p is a good prime, we give a new proof of the ``order formula'' of D. Testerman…

A ring $R$ is said to be centrally essential if for every its non-zero element $a$, there exist non-zero central elements $x$ and $y$ with $ax = y$. A ring $R$ is said to be completely centrally essential if all its factor rings are…

We show that practically all the properties of almost perfect rings discovered by Bazzoni and Salce in "Almost perfect domains" (Colloq. Math. 95 (2) (2003), 285-301) for commutative rings hold in the non-commutative setting.

The symmetric homology of a unital algebra $A$ over a commutative ground ring $k$ is defined using derived functors and the symmetric bar construction of Fiedorowicz. For a group ring $A = k[\Gamma]$, the symmetric homology is related to…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $S$ a multiplicative subset of $R$. In this paper, we first introduce and study the notions of $s$-pure exact sequences and $s$-absolutely pure modules which extend the classical notions of…

In this paper we prove that if $R$ is a commutative, reduced, local ring, then $R$ is Hopfian if and only if the ring $R[x]$ is Hopfian. This answers a question of Varadarajan, in the case when $R$ is a reduced local ring. We provide…

We introduce a concept of rings of right (left) almost stable range $1$ and we construct a theory of a canonical diagonal reduction of matrices over such rings. A description of new classes of noncommutative elementary divisor rings is done…

Let $ A \subset B$ be rings. An ideal $ J \subset B$ is called power stable in $A$ if $ J^n \cap A = (J\cap A)^n$ for all $ n\geq 1$. Further, $J$ is called ultimately power stable in $A$ if $ J^n \cap A = (J\cap A)^n$ for all $n$ large…

Let $\Bbbk$ be a field of characteristic $p>0$, $V$ a finite-dimensional $\Bbbk$-vector-space, and $G$ a finite $p$-group acting $\Bbbk$-linearly on $V$. Let $S = \Sym V^*$. We show that $S^G$ is a polynomial ring if and only if the…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and ${\rm Nil}(R)$ be the set of nilpotent elements of $R$. The nil-graph of ideals of $R$ is defined as the graph $\mathbb{AG}_N(R)$ whose vertex set is $\{I:\ (0)\neq I\lhd R$ and there exists a…

Let $\Gamma$ be a cancelation monoid with the neutral element $e$. Consider a $\Gamma$-graded ring $A=\oplus_{\gamma\in\Gamma}A_{\gamma}$, which is not necessarily commutative. It is proved that $A_e$, the degree-$e$ part of $A$, is a local…

In this paper, we are mainly interested in the two questions "which are the commutative rings on which every finitely presented modules is [Formula: see text]-periodic (respectively, [Formula: see text]-periodic)?". It is proved that these…

We establish a novel connection between the central binomial coefficients $\binom{2n}{n}$ and Gould's sequence through the construction of a specialized multivariate polynomial quotient ring. Our ring structure is characterized by ideals…

Let $R$ be a Noetherian commutative ring of dimension $n$, $A=R[X_1,\cdots,X_m]$ be a polynomial ring over $R$ and $P$ be a projective $A[T]$-module of rank $n$. Assume that $P/TP$ and $P_f$ both contain a unimodular element for some monic…

Consider the ring $\mathcal{S}$ of symmetric polynomials in $k$ variables over an arbitrary base ring $\mathbf{k}$. Fix $k$ scalars $a_{1},a_{2},\ldots,a_{k}\in\mathbf{k}$. Let $I$ be the ideal of $\mathcal{S}$ generated by…

Let $A = K[x_1, ..., x_n]$ denote the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ with each $\deg x_i = 1$. Let $I$ be a homogeneous ideal of $A$ with $I \ne A$ and $H_{A/I}$ the Hilbert function of the quotient algebra $A / I$. Given…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $S$ a multiplicative subset of $R$. An $R$-module $M$ is said to be a uniformly $S$-Artinian ($u$-$S$-Artinian for abbreviation) module if there is $s\in S$ such that any descending chain of…

We associate to every divisorial (e.g. smooth) variety $X$ with only constant invertible global functions and finitely generated Picard group a $Pic(X)$-graded homogeneous coordinate ring. This generalizes the usual homogeneous coordinate…
