The purpose of this paper is to both survey and offer some new results on the non-triviality of the characteristic classes of Riemannian foliations. We give examples where the primary Pontrjagin classes are all linearly independent. The…
The aim of this paper is to prove that there is a projection of an arbitrary k-simplex onto (m - l)-subsimplex, where 1 < l < m < k - 1, which is a derivation.
Let R be an affine k-domain over the field k. The paper's main result is that, if R admits a non-trivial embedding in a polynomial ring K[s] for some field K containing k, then R can be embedded in a polynomial ring F[t] which extends R…
Let $R$ be an order in an algebraic number field. If $R$ is a principal order, then many explicit results on its arithmetic are available. Among others, $R$ is half-factorial if and only if the class group of $R$ has at most two elements.…
Assume D is a simplicial sphere, and k_1 is a field. We say that D is generically anisotropic over k_1 if, for a certain purely transcendental field extension k of k_1, a certain Artinian reduction A of the Stanley-Reisner ring k[D] has the…
If K/k is a function field in one variable of positive characteristic, we describe a general algorithm to factor one-variable polynomials with coefficients in K. The algorithm is flexible enough to find factors subject to additional…
We present a short proof, relaying on the divergence theorem, verifying that minimal sets in the plane are trivial.
In different areas of discrete mathematics, a certain type of polynomials, having coefficients in a field K of finite characteristic, has been considered. The form and the degree of these polynomials, here called projective, are simply…
We say that the order of an algebraic number $A$ is the minimum of positive integers $k$ such that $A^k$ is rational. In this paper, we show that the number of algebraic numbers $A$ with order $k$ such that \[ A,\ A^A,\ A^{A^A},\ \ldots \]…
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero, let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group over $k$ and let $\mathfrak{g}$ be its Lie algebra. Let $k(G)$, respectively, $k(\mathfrak{g})$, be the field of $k$-rational functions on $G$,…
We propose a simple approach to formal deformations of associative algebras. It exploits the machinery of multiplicative coresolutions of an associative algebra A in the category of A-bimodules. Specifically, we show that certain…
For a field K and directed graph E, we analyze those elements of the Leavitt path algebra L_K(E) which lie in the commutator subspace [L_K(E), L_K(E)]. This analysis allows us to give easily computable necessary and sufficient conditions to…
An affine algebraic variety $X$ is rigid if the algebra of regular functions ${\mathbb K}[X]$ admits no nonzero locally nilpotent derivation. We prove that a factorial trinomial hypersurface is rigid if and only if every exponent in the…
$ $Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero. If $c_1, c_2\in k\setminus \{0\}, s,t\geq 1$ and $u\geq 0$, then it is shown that the $k$-derivations $\partial_x + x^u(c_1x^ty^s+c_2)\partial_y$ and $\partial_x +…
Let $S$ and $T$ be smooth projective varieties over an algebraically closed field. Suppose that $S$ is a surface admitting a decomposition of the diagonal. We show that, away from the characteristic of $k$, if an algebraic correspondence $T…
The aim of this note is to show that many papers on various kinds of filters (and related concepts) in (subreducts of) residuated structures are in fact easy consequences of more general results that have been known for a long time.
A theorem of Albert-Draxl states that if a tensor product of two quaternion division algebras $Q_1$, $Q_2$ over a field $F$ is not a division algebra, then there exists a separable quadratic extension of $F$ that embeds as a subfield in…
We prove that for every field k and every positive integer n, there exists an absolutely simple n-dimensional abelian variety over k. We also prove an asymptotic result for finite fields: For every finite field k and positive integer n, we…
This paper is a continuation of our previous works where we study maps from $X_0(N)$, $N \ge 1$, into $\mathbb P^2$ constructed via modular forms of the same weight and criteria that such a map is birational (see [12]). In the present paper…
