Using a local monomialization result of Knaf and Kuhlmann, we prove that the valuation ring of an Abhyankar valuation of a function field over a perfect ground field of prime characteristic is Frobenius split. We show that a Frobenius…

Let $F$ be a field, and let Zar$(F)$ be the space of valuation rings of $F$ with respect to the Zariski topology. We prove that if $X$ is a quasicompact set of rank one valuation rings in Zar$(F)$ whose maximal ideals do not intersect to…

Let $(X,\bullet )$ be a groupoid (binary algebra) and $Bin(X\dot{)}$ denote the collection of all groupoids defined on $X$. We introduce two methods of factorization for this binary system under the binary groupoid product \textquotedblleft…

We prove a general theorem showing that iterated skew polynomial extensions of the type which fit the conditions needed by Cauchon's deleting derivations theory and by the Goodearl-Letzter stratification theory are unique factorisation…

We consider the smallest subring $D$ of $\mathbb{R}(X)$ containing every element of the form $1/(1+x^2)$, with $x\in \mathbb{R}(X)$. $D$ is a Pr\"ufer domain called the minimal Dress ring of $\mathbb{R}(X)$. In this paper, addressing a…

We provide a characterization of the positive monoids (i.e., additive submonoids of the nonnegative real numbers) that satisfy the finite factorization property. As a result, we establish that positive monoids with well-ordered generating…

Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) is a popular dimension reduction technique that produces interpretable decomposition of the data into parts. However, this decompostion is not generally identifiable (even up to permutation and…

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

Let A and B be integral domains. Suppose A is Noetherian and B is a finitely generated A-algebra that contains A. Denote by A' the integral closure of A in B. We show that A' is determined by finitely many unique discrete valuation rings.…

Let K be a non-archimedean field with residue field k, and suppose that k is not an algebraic extension of a finite field. We prove two results concerning wandering domains of rational functions f in K(z) and Rivera-Letelier's notion of…

A semidomain is an additive submonoid of an integral domain that is closed under multiplication and contains the identity element. Although atomicity and divisibility in integral domains have been systematically investigated for more than…

We introduce and study a new class of integral domains which we call irreducible divisor pair domains (IDPDs). In particular, we show how IDPDs fit in with other classes of integral domains defined in terms of factorization conditions. For…

Given an integral domain $D$ with fraction field $F$, its *reciprocal complement* is the subring of $F$ generated by all $1/d$ for nonzero $d$ in $D$. This paper serves doubly as a survey of the current state of the field and an update with…

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…

A ring $R$ is called left strictly $(<\aleph_{\alpha})$-noetherian if $\aleph_{\alpha}$ is the minimum cardinal such that every ideal of $R$ is $(<\aleph_{\alpha})$-generated. In this note, we show that for every singular (resp., regular)…

For a commutative domain $R$ with nonzero identity and $I$ an ideal of $R$, we say $a=\lambda b_1 \cdots b_k$ is a $\tau_I$-factorization of $a$ if $\lambda \in R$ is a unit and $b_i \equiv b_j$(mod $I$) for all $1\leq i \leq j \leq k$.…

An atomic monoid $M$ is called length-factorial if for every non-invertible element $x \in M$, no two distinct factorizations of $x$ into irreducibles have the same length (i.e., number of irreducible factors, counting repetitions). The…

The notion of maximal non valuative domain is introduced and characterized. An integral domain R is called a maximal non valuative domain if R is not a valuative domain but every proper overring of R is a valuative domain. Maximal non…
