Given a variety of universal algebras. A method is suggested for describing automorphisms of a category of free algebras of this variety. Applying this general method all automorphisms of such categories are found in two cases: 1) for the…

Let $R$ be an algebra over a ring $\Bbbk$, $T$ an $R$-algebra, $M$ a finitely generated projective $R$-module, and $N$ a $T$-module. Let $G$ be a linearly reductive group scheme over $\Bbbk$ equipped with a representation…

Let A be an algebra in a variety V. We study the modulization of a pointed A-overalgebra P, show that it is totally in any variety that P is totally in, and apply this theory to the construction of the enveloping ringoid Z[A,V].

We investigate the question of when free structures of infinite rank (in a variety) possess model-theoretic properties like categoricity in higher power, saturation, or universality. Concentrating on left $R$-modules we show, among other…

We prove that a variety of algebras whose finitely generated members are free must be definitionally equivalent to the variety of sets, the variety of pointed sets, a variety of vector spaces over a division ring, or a variety of affine…

We show that certain classes of modules have universal models with respect to pure embeddings. $Theorem.$ Let $R$ be a ring, $T$ a first-order theory with an infinite model extending the theory of $R$-modules and $K^T=(Mod(T), \leq_{pp})$…

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…

We extend the concept of "almost indiscernible theory" introduced by Pillay and Sklinos in [Bull. Symb. Log., 2015] (which was itself a modernization and expansion of Baldwin and Shelah [Algebra Universalis, 1983]), to uncountable languages…

In this paper we seek geometric and invariant-theoretic characterizations of (Schur-)representation finite algebras. To this end, we introduce two classes of finite-dimensional algebras: those with the dense-orbit property and those with…

Let V be a variety of algebras of some type. An interest to describing automorphisms of the category C of finitely generated free V-algebras was inspired in connection with development of universal algebraic geometry founded by B. Plotkin.…

We study modules over a generalized Weyl algebra $R(\sigma,a)$ which are free when restricted to the base ring $R$. When $R$ is an integral domain, we construct all such finite-rank modules up to isomorphism, leading to new simple modules…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring. Assume that $R$ has a pair $\{x,y\}$ of exact zerodivisors such that $\dim R/(x,y)\ge2$ and all totally reflexive $R/(x)$-modules are free. We show that the first and second Brauer--Thrall…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group over $K$. We address the problem of classifying triples $(G,H,V)$, where $H$ is a proper connected subgroup of $G$, and…

Connections between heaps of modules and (affine) modules over rings are explored. This leads to explicit, often constructive, descriptions of some categorical constructions and properties that are implicit in universal algebra and…

We introduce a notion of a (V,T)-module over a vertex algebra V for an arbitrary positive integer T, which is a generalization of a twisted V-module. Under some conditions on V, we construct an associative algebra A^{T}_{m}(V) for…

The dimension of any module over an algebra of affiliated operators ${\mathcal U}$ of a finite von Neumann algebra ${\mathcal A}$ is defined using a trace on ${\mathcal A}.$ All zero-dimensional ${\mathcal U}$-modules constitute the torsion…

Classical multi-sorted equational theories and their free algebras have been fundamental in mathematics and computer science. In this paper, we present a generalization of multi-sorted equational theories from the classical ($Set$-enriched)…

In this paper, we study the K-theory on higher modules in spectral algebraic geometry. We relate the K-theory of an $\infty$-category of finitely generated projective modules on certain $\mathbb{E}_{\infty}$-rings with the K-theory of an…

In this note, we survey two instances in the representation theory of finite-dimensional algebras where the quantity of a type of structures is intimately related to the size of those same structures. More explicitly, we review the fact…

The notion of a derived A-infinity algebra, considered by Sagave, is a generalization of the classical notion of A-infinity algebra, relevant to the case where one works over a commutative ring rather than a field. We initiate a study of…
