For a proper subfield $K$ of $\QQ$ we show the existence of an algebraic number $\alpha$ such that no power $\alpha^n$, $n\geq 1$, lies in $K$. As an application it is shown that these numbers, multiplied by convenient Gaussian numbers, can…

Let G be a simple algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p>0. Here we classify all irreducible kG-modules for which the principal A1 has no repeated composition factors, extending the work of…

Let $(A,\sigma)$ be a central simple algebra with an orthogonal involution. It is well-known that $O(A,\sigma)$ contains elements of reduced norm $-1$ if and only if the Brauer class of $A$ is trivial. We generalize this statement to…

It is given an example of finitely generated simple algebra over a field k (char k = 0) with arbitrary odd Gel'fand-Kirillov dimension.

Let G be a connected linear algebraic group over a field k. We say that G is toric-friendly if for any field extension K/k and any maximal K-torus T in G the group G(K) has only one orbit in (G/T)(K). Our main result is a classification of…

In this article, we first describe codimension two regular foliations with numerically trivial canonical class on complex projective manifolds whose canonical class is not numerically effective. Building on a recent algebraicity criterion…

Let $R$ be a valuation ring with fraction field $K$ and $2\in R^\times$. We give an elementary proof of the following known result: Two unimodular quadratic forms over $R$ are isometric over $K$ if and only if they are isometric over $R$.…

In this short note we confirm the relation between the generalized $abc$-conjecture and the $p$-rationality of number fields. Namely, we prove that given K$/\mathbb{Q}$ a real quadratic extension or an imaginary $S_3$-extension, if the…

This paper is concerned with the study of the dimension theory of tensor products of algebras over a field $k$. We answer an open problem set in [6] and compute dim$(A\otimes_kB)$ when $A$ is a $k$-algebra arising from a specific pullback…

If $k$ is a field, $A$ and $B$ $k$-algebras, $M$ a faithful left $A$-module, and $N$ a faithful left $B$-module, we recall the proof that the left $A\otimes_k B$-module $M\otimes_k N$ is again faithful. If $k$ is a general commutative ring,…

We reprove the results of Jordan [18] and Siebert [31] and show that the Lie algebra of polynomial vector fields on an irreducible affine variety X is simple if and only if X is a smooth variety. Given proof is self-contained and does not…

For a field $E$ of characteristic different from $2$ and cohomological $2$-dimension one, quadratic forms over the rational function field $E(X)$ are studied. A characterisation in terms of polynomials in $E[X]$ is obtained for having that…

We extend the decomposition theorem for numerically $K$-trivial varieties with log terminal singularities to the K\"ahler setting. Along the way we prove that all such varieties admit a strong locally trivial algebraic approximation, thus…

Assume that R is a semi-local regular ring containing an infinite perfect field, or that R is a semi-local ring of several points on a smooth scheme over an infinite field. Let K be the field of fractions of R. Let H be a strongly inner…

A classical tool in the study of real closed fields are the fields $K((G))$ of generalised power series (i.e., formal sums with well-ordered support) with coefficients in a field $K$ of characteristic 0 and exponents in an ordered abelian…

Given a ring $R$, we study the bimodules $M$ for which the trivial extension $R\propto M$ is morphic. We obtain a complete characterization in the case where $R$ is left perfect, and we prove that $R\propto Q/R$ is morphic when $R$ is a…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero and ${\bar k}$ an algebraic closure of $k$. For a geometrically integral variety $X$ over $k$, we write ${\bar k}(X)$ for the function field of ${\bar X}=X\times_k{\bar k}$. If $X$ has a smooth…

We show that the common theory of all modules over a tubular algebra (over a recursive algebraically closed field) is decidable. This result supports a long standing conjecture of Mike Prest which says that a finite-dimensional algebra…

In this study, we give an alternative and elementary proof to Tsuji's criterion for a Cartier divisor to be numerically trivial.

Let A be a $\mathfrak Q$-domain, K=frac(A), B=A^{[n]} and D\in \lnd_A(B). Assume rank D= rank D_K=r, where D_K is the extension of D to K^{[n]}. Then we show that (i) If D_K is rigid, then D is rigid. (ii) Assume n=3, r=2 and B=A[X,Y,Z]…
