Derived equivalences between finite dimensional algebras do, in general, not pass to centraliser (or other) subalgebras, nor do they preserve homological invariants of the algebras, such as global or dominant dimension. We show that,…
We define a congruence module $\Psi_A(M)$ associated to a surjective $\mathcal O$-algebra morphism $\lambda\colon A \to \mathcal{O}$, with $\mathcal{O}$ a discrete valuation ring, $A$ a complete noetherian local $\mathcal{O}$-algebra…
A characterization of the finite-dimensional Leibniz algebras with an abelian subalgebra of codimension two over a field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic $p\neq2$ is given. In short, a finite-dimensional Leibniz algebra of dimension $n$ with…
Let $\mathcal H$ be the class of algebras verifying Han's conjecture. In this paper we analyse two types of algebras with the aim of providing an inductive step towards the proof of this conjecture. Firstly we show that if an algebra…

The paper is devoted to the investigation of finite dimensional commutative nilpotent (associative) algebras N over an arbitrary base field of characteristic zero. Due to the lack of a general structure theory for algebras of this type (as…
Let $\Lambda$ be a finite dimensional algebra and $G$ be a finite group whose elements act on $\Lambda$ as algebra automorphisms. Under the assumption that $\Lambda$ has a complete set $E$ of primitive orthogonal idempotents, closed under…
We give a formula for the superdimension of a finite-dimensional simple gl(m|n)-module using the Su-Zhang character formula. As a corollary, we obtain a simple algebraic proof of a conjecture of Kac-Wakimoto for gl(m|n), namely, a simple…
We analyze the general class of supersymmetry preserving orbifolds of strong/weak Type IIA/heterotic dual pairs in six dimensions and below. A unified treatment is given by considering compactification to two spacetime dimensions and…
A concrete lower-bound for the Hochschild cohomological dimension of a commutative $k$-algebra, in terms of three other homological invariants is obtained. This result is then used to show that most $k$-algebras fail to be quasi-free, even…
For a von Neumann algebra M on a Hilbert space, A. Connes has constructed a module S and a derivation of M into S, such that M is approximately finite dimensional if and only if that derivation is inner. The paper contains a generalization…
Let $A$ be a finite dimensional hereditary algebra over an algebraically closed field and $A^{(m)}$ the $m$-replicated algebra of $A$. We prove that the representation dimension of $A^{(m)}$ is at most three, and that the dominant dimension…
We show that, also within the class of representation-tame finite dimensional algebras $\Lambda$, the big left finitistic dimension of $\Lambda$ may be strictly larger than the little. In fact, the discrepancies $Findim \Lambda - findim…
Let $\Lambda$ be an $n$-Auslander algebra with global dimension $n+1$. In this paper, we prove that $\Lambda$ is representation-finite if and only if the number of non-isomorphic indecomposable $\Lambda$-modules with projective dimension…
An extension of algebras is a homomorphism of algebras preserving identities. We use extensions of algebras to study the finitistic dimension conjecture over Artin algebras. Let $f: B \to A$ be an extension of Artin algebras. We denote by…
Given an algebra with an idempotent, we introduce two procedures to construct families of new algebras, termed mirror-reflective algebras and reduced mirror-reflective algebras. We then establish connections among these algebras by…

An algebra extension A | B is right depth two if its tensor-square A\otimes_B A is in the Dress category Add A as A-B-bimodules. We consider necessary conditions for right, similarly left, D2 extensions in terms of partial A-invariance of…
We investigate the relationship between smoothness and the relative global dimension of a ring extension. We prove that a smooth commutative algebra $A$ over $B$ has finite relative global dimension $\text{gdim}(A,B)$. Conversely, under a…
