In this paper, we completely describe the family of integrally closed Noetherian domains between $\mathbb{Z}[X]$ and $\mathbb{Q}[X]$. We accomplish this result by classifying the Krull domains between these two polynomial rings. To this…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. The structure theorem says that $R$ is a PIR (resp., UFR, general ZPI-ring, $\pi$-ring) if and only if $R$ is a finite direct product of PIDs (resp., UFDs, Dedekind domains, $\pi$-domains) and…

There are various notions of dimension in fractal geometry to characterise (random and non-random) subsets of $\mathbb R^d$. In this expository text, we discuss their analogues for infinite subsets of $\mathbb Z^d$ and, more generally, for…

Let K be an expansion of either an ordered field or a valued field. Given a definable set X $\subseteq$ K^m let C(X) be the ring of continuous definable functions from X to K. Under very mild assumptions on the geometry of X and…

Let $K$ be a complete discrete valuation field of characteristic zero with residue field $k_K$ of characteristic $p>0$. Let $L/K$ be a finite Galois extension with Galois group $G=\Gal(L/K)$ and suppose that the induced extension of residue…

Let D be a Krull domain and Int(D) the ring of integer-valued polynomials on D. For any f in Int(D), we explicitly construct a divisor homomorphism from [f], the divisor-closed submonoid of Int(D) generated by f, to a finite sum of copies…

Let $K$ be a large field such that $K[\sqrt{-1}]$ is not algebraically closed and $F/K$ a function field in one variable. Extending techniques and results from earlier work with Becher and Dittmann, we show that every valuation ring on $F$…

The paper investigates the converse to the following theorem. Let R be a differential domain R which is finitely generated over a differential field F whose field of constants is algebraically closed of characteristic 0. If R has no proper…

Let $R$ be a complete discrete valuation ring of mixed characteristic $(0,p)$ with fraction field $K$. We study stable models of $p$-cyclic covers of $\Proj_K$. First, we determine the monodromy extension, the monodromy group, its…

We prove some results on the structure of ind-pro completions of Noetherian rings along flags of prime ideals. In particular, we compute the Krull dimension and deduce the criterion on semilocality in the case of essentially of finite type…

We show that the ring of integers of $\mathbb{Q}^{\text{tr}}$ is existentially definable in the ring of integers of $\mathbb{Q}^{\text{tr}}(i)$, where $\mathbb{Q}^{\text{tr}}$ denotes the field of all totally real numbers. This implies that…

If $E$ is a subset of the integers then the $n$-th characteristic ideal of $E$ is the fractional ideal of $\mathbb{Z} $ consisting of $0$ and the leading coefficients of the polynomials in $\mathbb{Q}[x]$ of degree no more than $n$ which…

The small finitistic dimension $\fPD(R)$ of a ring $R$ is defined to be the supremum of projective dimensions of $R$-modules with finite projective resolutions. In this paper, we investigate the small finitistic dimensions of four types of…

The aim of these notes is to study some of the structural aspects of the ring of arithmetical functions. We prove that this ring is neither Noetherian nor Artinian. Furthermore, we construct various types of prime ideals. We show arithmetic…

For a finitely generated algebra over a field, the transcendence degree is known to be equal to the Krull dimension. The aim of this paper is to generalize this result to algebras over rings. A new definition of the transcendence degree of…

A ring is *unit-additive* if a sum of units is always either a unit or nilpotent. For example, $k[X]$ and $k[X]/(X^2)$ are unit-additive, but $\mathbb Z$ is not. We prove a wide-ranging theorem about unit-additivity in semigroup rings,…

Let k be a field of characteristic zero, K an algebraic function field over k, and V a k-valuation ring of K. Zariski's theorem of local uniformization shows that there exist algebraic regular local rings R_i with quotient field K which are…

The purpose of this article is to prove some results on the Witt vectors of perfect $\mathbf{F}_p$-algebras. Let $A$ be a perfect $\mathbf{F}_p$-algebra for a prime integer $p$ and assume that $A$ has the property $\mathbf{P}$. Then does…

A power series ring over non-Noetherian rings can fail to be flat over the base ring, and its dimension can be infinite, even when the dimension of the base ring is finite. We study the case when the base ring has Krull dimension 0, and…

The ad\`ele ring $\mathbb A_K$ of a global field $K$ is a locally compact, metrizable topological ring which is complete with respect to any invariant metric on $\mathbb A_K$. For a fixed global field $F$ and a possibly infinite algebraic…
