For a hereditary, finite-dimensional algebra $A$ the Coxeter transformation extends the action of the Auslander--Reiten translation on the non-projective indecomposable modules to a linear endomorphism of the Grothendieck group of the…
Let $K$ be a number field. We show that, up to allowing a finite set of denominators in the partial quotients, it is possible to define algorithms for $\mathfrak P$-adic continued fractions satisfying the finiteness property on $K$ for…
We conjecture that a $p$-algebra over a complete discrete valued field $K$ contains a totally ramified purely inseparable subfield if and only if it contains a totally ramified cyclic maximal subfield. We prove the conjecture in several…
Let A be an algebra over a field k, and denote by D^b(Mod A) the bounded derived category of left A-modules. The derived Picard group DPic_k(A) is the group of triangle auto-equivalences of D^b(Mod A) induced by tilting complexes. We study…
In this note we are concerned with the notion of amenable representation type as defined in a recent paper by G\'abor Elek. Roughly speaking, an algebra is of amenable type if for all $\varepsilon > 0$, every finite-dimensional module has a…
We generalize Amitsur's construction of central simple algebras over a field $F$ which are split by field extensions possessing a derivation with field of constants $F$ to nonassociative algebras: for every central division algebra $D$ over…
If K/F is a finite abelian Galois extension of global fields whose Galois group has exponent t, we prove that there exists a short exact sequence that has as a consequence that if t is square free, then Dec(K/F)=Br_{t}(K/F) which we use to…
We show that for the path algebra $A$ of an acyclic quiver, the singularity category of the derived category $\mathsf{D}^{\rm b}(\mathsf{mod}\,A)$ is triangle equivalent to the derived category of the functor category of…
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…
An associative division algebra D is said to be _affine_ over a central subfield k if D is finitely generated as a k-algebra. In 1956 Amitsur famously proved that, when k is uncountable, D cannot be k-affine unless D is algebraic over k. In…
Let $A$ be a finite dimensional hereditary algebra over a finite field, and let $m$ be a fixed integer such that $m=0$ or $m>2$. In the present paper, we first define an algebra $L_m(A)$ associated to $A$, called the $m$-periodic lattice…
Let $G$ be a split connected reductive group over $\mathbb{Z}$. Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field. With $K_m: = Ker(G(\mathfrak{O}_F) \rightarrow G(\mathfrak{O}_F/\mathfrak{p}_F^m))$, Kazhdan proved that for a field $F'$sufficiently…
Let $A$ be a quasi-hereditary algebra. We prove that in many cases, a tilting module is rigid (i.e. has identical radical and socle series) if it does not have certain subquotients whose composition factors extend more than one layer in the…
We describe of all finite dimensional uniserial representations of a commutative associative (resp. abelian Lie) algebra over a perfect (resp. sufficiently large perfect) field. In the Lie case the size of the field depends on the answer to…
Let $A$ be an integral $k$-algebra of finite type over a field $k$ of characteristic zero. Let ${\cal{F}}$ be a family of $k$-derivations on $A$ and $M_{\cal{F}}$ the $A$-module spanned by ${\cal{F}}$. In this paper, we generalize a result…
We use the theory of differential tensor algebras and their modules to produce explicit representations of extended Dynkin quivers.
We show that if $k$ is a countable field, then there exists a finitely generated, infinite-dimensional, primitive algebraic $k$-algebra $A$ whose Gelfand-Kirillov dimension is at most six. In addition to this we construct a two-generated…
Let $S$ be a degree six del Pezzo surface over an arbitrary field $F$. Motivated by the first author's classification of all such $S$ up to isomorphism in terms of a separable $F$-algebra $B \times Q \times F$, and by his K-theory…
G. Prasad and A. Rapinchuk asked if two quaternion division F -algebras that have the same subfields are necessarily isomorphic. The answer is known to be "no" for some very large fields. We prove that the answer is "yes" if F is an…
It is shown that a separable exact residually finite dimensional C*-algebra with locally finitely generated (rational) even K-homology embeds in a uniformly hyperfinite C*-algebra.
