Recently is has been proved that if $\sigma\in GL_n(R)$ where $R$ is an commutative ring and $n\geq 3$, then each of the elementary transvections $t_{kl}(\sigma_{ij})~(i\neq j,k\neq l)$ is a product of eight $E_n(R)$-conjugates of $\sigma$…

The aim of this paper is to unify classification theories of torsion classes of finite dimensional algebras and commutative Noetherian rings. For a commutative Noetherian ring $R$ and a module-finite $R$-algebra $\Lambda$, we study the set…

L\'evai and Pyber proposed the following as a conjecture: Let $G$ be a profinite group such that the set of solutions of the equation $x^n=1$ has positive Haar measure. Then $G$ has an open subgroup $H$ and an element $t$ such that all…

We show that a unital ring is generated by its commutators as an ideal if and only if there exists a natural number $N$ such that every element is a sum of $N$ products of pairs of commutators. We show that one can take $N \leq 2$ for…

Let $B$ be a local (Noetherian) ring and suppose that $B$ has $n$ associated prime ideals where $n \geq 2$. We identify sufficient conditions for there to exist a local (Noetherian) subring $S$ of $B$ such that $S$ and $B$ have the same…

Let Z<X> be the free unitary associative ring freely generated by an infinite countable set X = {x_1, x_2,...}. Define a left-normed commutator [x_1, x_2, ..., x_n] by [a,b] = ab - ba, [a,b,c] = [[a,b],c]. For n \ge 2, let T^(n) be the…

Describing the conjugacy classes of the unipotent upper triangular groups $\mathrm{UT}_{n}(\mathbb{F}_{q})$ uniformly (for all or many values of $n$ and $q$) is a nearly impossible task. This paper takes on the related problem of describing…

Consider the affine space consisting of pairs of matrices $(A,B)$ of fixed size, and its closed subvariety given by the rank conditions $\operatorname{rank} A \leq a$, $\operatorname{rank} B \leq b$ and $\operatorname{rank} (A\cdot B) \leq…

This paper investigates a question of Radjavi: Which multiplicative semigroups in B(H) have all their ideals selfadjoint (called herein selfadjoint-ideal (SI) semigroups)? We proved this property is a unitary invariant for B(H)-semigroups,…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $I$ be an ideal of $R$. In this article we answer affirmatively a question raised by the present author in \cite{B2}. Also, as an immediate consequence of this result it is shown that the…

The aim of this article is to study the ideal class monoid $\mathcal{C}\ell(S)$ of a numerical semigroup $S$ introduced by V. Barucci and F. Khouja. We prove new bounds on the cardinality of $\mathcal{C}\ell(S)$. We observe that…

For a big class of commutative rings R every continuous R-automorphism of R[[X_1,...,X_n]] with the identity linear part is in the commutator subgroup of Aut(R[[X_1,...,X_n]]). An explicit bound for the number of the involved commutators…

The purpose of this note is to find an elemenary explanation of a surprising result of Ein--Lazarsfeld--Smith \cite{ELS} and Hochster--Huneke \cite{HH} on the containment between symbolic and ordinary powers of ideals in simple cases. This…

For semigroup $S$, a commutative congruence $\sigma_{orient}$ on $S$ and a subsemigroup Orientable($S$) of $S$ were introduced in "Two cancellative commutative congruences and group diagrams", Semigroup Forum (2011) 82: 338-353. Here we…

A complete contraction on a C*-algebra A, which preserves all closed two sided ideals J, can be approximated pointwise by elementary complete contractions if and only if the induced map on the tensor product of B with A/J is contractive for…

We study Gorenstein ideals of codimension $4$ derived from generic doublings of almost complete intersection perfect ideals of codimension $3$. We also investigate spinor coordinates of such Gorenstein ideals with $8$ and $9$ generators.…

A doodle is a collection of immersed circles without triple intersections in the $2$-sphere. It was shown by the second author and P.~Tayler that doodles induce commutator identities (identities amongst commutators) in a free group. In this…

We show that ideal submodules and closed ternary ideals in Hilbert modules are the same. We use this insight as a little peg on which to hang a little note about interrelations with other notions regarding Hilbert modules. In Section 3, we…

An ordered semiring is a commutative semiring equipped with a compatible preorder. Ordered semirings generalise both distributive lattices and commutative rings, and provide a convenient framework to unify certain aspects of lattice theory…

We study whether a unital associative algebra $ A $ over a field admits a decomposition of the form $A = Z(A) + [A,A]$ where $ Z(A) $ is the center of $ A $ and $ [A,A] $ denotes the additive subgroup of $A$ generated by all additive…
