Let $F$ be a field of characteristic $2$ and let $K/F$ be a purely inseparable extension of exponent $1$. We show that the extension is excellent for quadratic forms. Using the excellence we recover and extend results by Aravire and…

Let the finite group $G$ act linearly on the vector space $V$ over the field $k$ of arbitrary characteristic. If $H<G$ is a subgroup the extension of invariant rings $k[V]^G\subset k[V]^H$ is studied using modules of covariants. An example…

In this work, we propose to study noncommutative geometry using the language of categories of sheaves of algebras with polynomial identities and their properties, introducing new (graded) noncommutative geometries. These include, for…

The Witt algebra W_n is the Lie algebra of all derivations of the n-variable polynomial ring V_n=C[x_1, ..., x_n] (or of algebraic vector fields on A^n). A representation of W_n is polynomial if it arises as a subquotient of a sum of tensor…

We construct inductively an equivariant compactification of the algebraic group ${\mathbb W}_n$ of Witt vectors of finite length over a field of characteristic $p>0$. We obtain smooth projective rational varieties $\bar{\mathbb W}_n$,…

The classical work of Feferman Vaught gives a powerful, constructive analysis of definability in (generalized) product structures, and certain associated enriched Boolean structures. %structures in terms of definability in the component…

A ring $R$ is called left $k$-cyclic if every left $R$-module is a direct sum of indecomposable modules which are homomorphic image of $_{R}R^k$. In this paper, we give a characterization of left $k$-cyclic rings. As a consequence, we give…

Let F denote a field of characteristic different from two. In this paper we describe the mod 2 cohomology of a Galois group which is determined by the Witt ring WF.

We consider a finite acyclic quiver $\mathcal{Q}$ and a quasi-Frobenius ring $R$. We endow the category of quiver representations over $R$ with a model structure, whose homotopy category is equivalent to the stable category of…

We study some properties and perspectives of the Hurwitz series ring $H_R[[t]]$, for a commutative ring with identity $R$. Specifically, we provide a closed form for the invertible elements by means of the complete ordinary Bell…

We prove that certain classical groups $G\subseteq {\rm GL}(d,\mathbb{R}^d)$ serve to characterize ordinary polynomials in $d$ real variables as elements of finite-dimensional subspaces of $C(\mathbb{R}^d)$ that are invariant by changes of…

In this paper, we continue our study of the tensor product structure of category $\mathcal W$ of weight modules over the Hopf-Ore extensions $kG(\chi^{-1}, a, 0)$ of group algebras $kG$, where $k$ is an algebraically closed field of…

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…

The R-module functors that are essential for the development of the theory of the linear representations of an affine R-group are the quasi-coherent R-modules and the R-module schemes. The aim of this paper is to study when a quasi-coherent…

Explicit expressions are proven for derivatives of the ratio of a determinant or Pfaffian determinant and a Vandermonde determinant. Such ratios appear for example in general group integrals of Harish-Chandra--Itzykson--Zuber type and in…

In this article, we describe the endomorphism ring of a finitely generated progenerator module of a weighted Leavitt path algebra $L_{K}(E, w)$ of a finite vertex weighted graph $(E, w)$. Contrary to the case of Leavitt path algebras, we…

We consider differential rings of the form (K[x; y];D), where K is an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and D : K[x; y] \to K[x; y] is a K-derivation. We study the Automorphism Group of such a ring and give criteria for…

We extend the big and $p$-typical Witt vector functors from commutative rings to commutative semirings. In the case of the big Witt vectors, this is a repackaging of some standard facts about monomial and Schur positivity in the…
