In 1988, I. Beck introduced the notion of a zero-divisor graph of a commutative rings with $1$. There have been several generalizations in recent years. In particular, in 2007 J. Coykendall and J. Maney developed the irreducible divisor…
The theory of $\tau$-factorizations on integral domains was developed by Anderson and Frazier. This theory characterized all the known factorizations and opened the opportunity to create new ones. It can be visualized as a restriction to…
A Puiseux monoid is an additive submonoid of the nonnegative cone of rational numbers. Although Puiseux monoids are torsion-free rank-one monoids, their atomic structure is rich and highly complex. For this reason, they have been important…
The satisfiability problem for First-order Modal Logic (\FOML) is undecidable even for simple fragments like having only unary predicates, two variables etc. Recently a new way to identify decidable fragments of \FOML has been introduced…
To study a Dirichlet polynomial $f(s)=\frac{a_{m}}{m^{s}}+\cdots +\frac{a_{n}}{n^{s}}$ by regarding it as a multivariate polynomial via the canonical map $\phi$ sending $p_i^{-s}$ to an indeterminate $X_i$, with $p_i$ the $i$th prime…
Abstract. This article determines relations between two notions concerning monoids: factorability structure, introduced to simplify the bar complex; and quadratic normalisation, introduced to generalise quadratic rewriting systems and…
Form factors of composite operators in the SL(2) sector of N=4 SYM theory are studied up to two loops via the on-shell unitarity method. The non-compactness of this subsector implies the novel feature and technical challenge of an unlimited…
We study decompositions of length functions on integral domains as sums of length functions constructed from overrings. We find a standard representation when the integral domain admits a Jaffard family, when it is Noetherian and when it is…
We investigate non-unique factorization of polynomials in Z_{p^n}[x] into irreducibles. As a Noetherian ring whose zero-divisors are contained in the Jacobson radical, Z_{p^n}[x] is atomic. We reduce the question of factoring arbitrary…
If a finitely generated monoid M is defined by a finite number of degree-preserving relations, then it has linear growth if and only if it can be decomposed into a finite disjoint union of subsets (which we call "sandwiches") of the form…
This paper studies the problem of decomposing a low-rank positive-semidefinite matrix into symmetric factors with binary entries, either $\{\pm 1\}$ or $\{0,1\}$. This research answers fundamental questions about the existence and…
A computable ring is a ring equipped with mechanical procedure to add and multiply elements. In most natural computable integral domains, there is a computational procedure to determine if a given element is prime/irreducible. However,…
In 1960 Schwinger [J. Schwinger, Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci. 46 (1960) 570- 579] proposed the algorithm for factorization of unitary operators in the finite M dimensional Hilbert space according to a coprime decomposition of M. Using a special…
Given a not necessarily semisimple modular tensor category C, we use the corresponding 3d TFT defined in [arXiv:1912.02063] to explicitly describe a modular functor as a symmetric monoidal 2-functor from a 2-category of oriented bordisms to…
In this paper, we obtain some factorization results on formal power series over principle ideal domains with sharp bounds on number of irreducible factors. These factorization results correspondingly lead to irreducibility criteria for…
Let $U_q'(\mathfrak{g})$ be an arbitrary quantum affine algebra of either untwisted or twisted type, and let $\mathscr{C}_{\mathfrak{g}}^0$ be its Hernandez-Leclerc category. We denote by $\mathsf{B}$ the braid group determined by the…
We consider a notion of exact sequences in any -not necessarily exact- pointed category relative to a given (E;M)-factorization structure. We apply this notion to introduce and investigate a new notion of exact sequences of semimodules over…
Single scale Feynman integrals in quantum field theories obey difference or differential equations with respect to their discrete parameter $N$ or continuous parameter $x$. The analysis of these equations reveals to which order they…
It has been a well-known fact since Euclid's time that there exist infinitely many rational primes. Two natural questions arise: In which other rings, sufficiently similar to the integers, are there infinitely many irreducible elements? Is…
We generalize the notion of length to an ordinal-valued invariant defined on the class of finitely generated modules over a Noetherian ring. A key property of this invariant is its semi-additivity on short exact sequences. As an…
