A theorem of O. Forster says that if $R$ is a noetherian ring of Krull dimension $d$, then any projective $R$-module of rank $n$ can be generated by $d+n$ elements. S. Chase and R. Swan subsequently showed that this bound is sharp: there…

Let $R$ be any associative ring with $1$, $n\ge 3$, and let $A,B$ be two-sided ideals of $R$. In the present paper we show that the mixed commutator subgroup $[E(n,R,A),E(n,R,B)]$ is generated as a group by the elements of the two following…

In this work, we present a number of generator matrices of the form $[I_{2n} \ | \ \tau_k(v)],$ where $I_{kn}$ is the $kn \times kn$ identity matrix, $v$ is an element in the group matrix ring $M_2(R)G$ and where $R$ is a finite commutative…

Let $R$ be an associative ring with unity $1$ and consider that $2,k$ and $2k\in \mathbb{N}$ are invertible in $R$. For $m\geq 1$ denote by $UT_n(m,R)$ and $UT_{\infty}(m,R)$, the subgroups of $UT_n(R)$ and $UT_{\infty}(R)$ respectively,…

For an integer $M\geq 2$ and a finite group $G$, an element $\alpha\in G$ is called an $M$-th power if it satisfies $A^M=\alpha$ for some $A\in G$. In this article, we will deal with the case when $G$ is finite symplectic or orthogonal…

In earlier work, the author classified rigid representations of a quiver by finitely generated free modules over a principal ideal ring. Here we extend the results to representations of a quiver by finitely generated projective modules over…

Let M be a finitely generated submodule of a free module over a multivariate polynomial ring with coefficients in a discrete coherent ring. We prove that its module MLT(M ) of leading terms is countably generated and provide an algorithm…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic $p>0$, $A=K[[Y]]$ be a power series ring in one variable and $Q(A)$ be the field of fraction of $A$. Suppose that $R=A[X_1,\ldots,X_n]$ is a standard $\mathbb{N}^n$-graded polynomial ring over $A$, i.e.,…

Our aim is to transfer several foundational results from the modular representation theory of finite groups to the wider context of profinite groups. We are thus interested in profinite modules over the completed group algebra k[[G]] of a…

Let $M\ $be a module over a domain $R$ and $M^{\#}=\{0\neq m\in M:Rm\neq M\}$ be the set of all nonzero nongenerators of $M.\ $Consider following equivalence relation $\sim$ on $M^{\#}$ as follows: for every $m,n\in M^{\#},\ m\sim n$ if and…

Given a matrix $A\in SL(N,\Z)$, form the semidirect product $G=\Z^N\rtimes_A \Z$ where the $\Z$ factor acts on $\Z^N$ by $A$. Such a $G$ arises naturally as the fundamental group of an $N$-dimensional torus bundle which fibers over the…

Let $n \in \NN$ and let $q=p^r$ be an odd prime power. Let $R$ be a finite commutative local principal ring of cardinality $q^{n}$ with $R/J(R) \simeq GF(q)$. We study the conjugation action of the group of all unipotent elements in the…

The notion of a quasideterminant and a quasiminor of a matrix A=(a_{ij}) with not necessarily commuting entries was introduced recently by I.Gelfand and the second author. The ordinary determinant of a matrix with commuting entries can be…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. We introduce a general form of the classically studied trace map that unifies several notions from the literature. We develop a theory around these…

In this series of papers, we investigate properties of a finite group which are determined by its low degree irreducible representations over a number field $F$, i.e. its representations on matrix rings $\operatorname{M}_n(D)$ with $n \leq…

We establish several new topological generation results for the quantum permutation groups $S^+_N$ and the quantum reflection groups $H^{s+}_N$. We use these results to show that these quantum groups admit sufficiently many "matrix models".…

Let $M$ be a tensor product of unitarizable irreducible highest weight modules over the Lie (super)algebra $\mathcal{G}$, where $\mathcal{G}$ is $\mathfrak{gl}(m|n)$, $\mathfrak{osp}(2m|2n)$ or $\mathfrak{spo}(2m|2n)$. We show, using super…

We give a characterization of hypercyclic finitely generated abelian semigroups of matrices on C^n using the extended limit sets (the J-sets). Moreover we construct for any n\geq 2 an abelian semigroup G of GL(n;C) generated by n + 1…

A $(v,k,\lambda)$-difference set in a group $G$ of order $v$ is a subset $\{d_1, d_2, \ldots,d_k\}$ of $G$ such that $D=\sum d_i$ in the group ring ${\mathbb Z}[G]$ satisfies $$D D^{-1} = n + \lambda G,$$ where $n=k-\lambda$. In other…

Let $G$ be a simply-connected semisimple algebraic group scheme over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$. Let $r \geq 1$ and set $q = p^r$. We show that if a rational $G$-module $M$ is projective over the $r$-th…
