We show that any complete local (normal) domain admits a module-finite quasi-Gorenstein normal (complete local) domain extension. In the geometric vein, we show that any normal projective variety $X$ over a field admits a finite surjective…
We find new sufficient conditions for the commutator map of a real semisimple Lie algebra to be surjective. As an application we prove the surjectivity of the commutator map for all simple algebras except $\mathfrak su_{p,q}$ ($p$ or $q$…
Let R be a regular local ring, containing a finite field. Let G be a reductive group scheme over R. We prove that a principal G-bundle over R is trivial, if it is trivial over the fraction field of R. If the regular local ring R contains an…
Let $F=(p,q):\mathbb R^2\to \mathbb R^2$ be a polynomial map with nowhere zero Jacobian determinant. A long-standing problem is to determine the largest integer $k$ such that the condition $\deg p\le k$ guarantees the global injectivity of…
We prove that a polynomial map is invertible if and only if some associated differential ring homomorphism is bijective. To this end, we use a theorem of Crespo and Hajto linking the invertibility of polynomial maps with Picard-Vessiot…
Let $M$ be a strictly convex smooth connected hypersurface in $\mathbb R^n$ and $\widehat{M}$ its convex hull. We say that $M$ is locally polynomially integrable if the $(n-1)-$ dimensional volumes of the sections of $\widehat M$ by…
In this paper we show that not all affine rational complex surfaces can be parametrized birationally and surjectively. For this purpose, we prove that, if S is an affine complex surface whose projective closure is smooth, a necessary…
In this article we introduce generalized projective spaces (Definitions $[2.1, 2.5]$) and prove three main theorems in two different contexts. In the first context we prove, in main Theorem $A$, the surjectivity of the Chinese remainder…
In this article we analyze the global diffeomorphism property of polynomial maps $F:\mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^n$ by studying the properties of the Newton polytopes at infinity corresponding to the sum of squares polynomials…
We study the class of 2-dimensional affine k-domains R satisfying ML(R) = k, where k is an arbitrary field of characteristic zero. In particular, we obtain the following result: Let R be a localization of a polynomial ring in finitely many…
Let $R$ be a 2-dimensional normal excellent henselian local domain in which 2 is invertible and let $L$ and $k$ be respectively its fraction field and residue field. Let $\Omega_R$ be the set of rank 1 discrete valuations of $L$…
A linear map between matrix spaces is positive if it maps positive semidefinite matrices to positive semidefinite ones, and is called completely positive if all its ampliations are positive. In this article quantitative bounds on the…
Let K be a p-adic field and F the function field of a curve over K. Let G be a connected linear algebraic group over F of classical type. Suppose the prime p is a good prime for G. Then we prove that projective homogeneous spaces under G…
Let $G$ be a complex reductive group and $V$ a $G$-module. Then the $m$th jet scheme $G_m$ acts on the $m$th jet scheme $V_m$ for all $m\geq 0$. We are interested in the invariant ring $\mathcal{O}(V_m)^{G_m}$ and whether the map…
Let R be a ring of polynomials in a finite number of variables over a perfect field k of characteristic p>0 and let F:R\to R be the Frobenius map of R, i.e. F(r)=r^p. We explicitly describe an R-module isomorphism Hom_R(F_*(M),N)\cong…
Let $\mathcal{P}$ be the class of rings for which every indecomposable right module is pure-projective or pure-injective. When $R$ is a Noetherian local commutative ring of maximal ideal $P$, it is proven that $R\in\mathcal{P}$ if and only…
We consider topological conditions under which a locally invertible map admits a global inverse. Our main theorem states that a local diffeomorphism $f: M \to\mathbb{R}^n$ is bijective if and only if $H_{n-1}(M)=0$ and the pre-image of…
We introduce the notion of semi-characteristic polynomial for a semi-linear map of a finite- dimensional vector space over a field of characteristic p. This polynomial has some properties in common with the classical characteristic…
