For any field k and any integers m,n with 0 <= 2m <= n+1, let W_n be the k-vector space of sequences (x_0,...,x_n), and let H_m be the subset of W_n consisting of the sequences that satisfy a degree-m linear recursion, that is, for which…
We focus on working on incidence rings, a class of (possibly infinite) matrix rings indexed by ordered sets. Some general properties about them are given, including how they are always the inverse limit of finite matrix rings, giving a…
The orbifold group of the Borromean rings with singular angle 90 degrees, $U$, is a universal group, because every closed oriented 3--manifold $M^{3}$ occurs as a quotient space $M^{3} = H^{3}/G$, where $G$ is a finite index subgroup of…
In this paper we use families of finite subgroups to study Grothendieck rings associated to certain discrete groups, such as the arithmetic ones.
Moduli of rings and quadrilaterals are frequently applied in geometric function theory, see e.g. the Handbook by K\"uhnau. Yet their exact values are known only in a few special cases. Previously, the class of planar domains with polygonal…
Properties of a given symmetry group G are very important in investigation of a physical system invariant under its action. In the case of finite spin systems (magnetic rings, some planar macromolecules) the symmetry group is isomorphic…
Recent breakthrough methods \cite{gggz,joux,bgjt} on computing discrete logarithms in small characteristic finite fields share an interesting feature in common with the earlier medium prime function field sieve method \cite{jl}. To solve…
Orders in an algebraic number field form a class of rings which are of special historical interest to the field of factorization theory. One of the primary tools used to study factorization is elasticity - a measure of how badly unique…
In a unitary ring with involution, we prove that each element has at most one weak group inverse if and only if each idempotent element has a unique weak group inverse. Furthermore, we define the $m$-weak group inverse and show some…
In this paper, a transform approach is used for polycyclic and serial codes over finite local rings in the case that the defining polynomials have no multiple roots. This allows us to study them in terms of linear algebra and invariant…
The object of study in this paper is the finite groups whose integral group rings have only trivial central units. Prime-power groups and metacyclic groups with this property are characterized. Metacyclic groups are classified according to…
There are studied Lie groups considered as almost hypercomplex Hermitian-Norden manifolds, which are integrable and have the lowest dimension four. It is established a correspondence of the derived Lie algebras of types of invariant…
In this paper, we explore the use of path idempotents for the Hecke algebra of type $A$ at roots of unity. For $q$ a primitive $\ell$-th root of unity we obain a non-unital imbedding of (a quotient of) the group algebra of $S_m$ into (a…
We introduce a geometric invariant, called finite decomposition complexity (FDC), to study topological rigidity of manifolds. We prove for instance that if the fundamental group of a compact aspherical manifold M has FDC, and if N is…
A finite semifield is a division algebra over a finite field where multiplication is not necessarily associative. We consider here the complexity of the multiplication in small semifields and finite field extensions. For this operation, the…
In the theory of species, differential as well as integral operators are known to arise in a natural way. In this paper, we shall prove that they precisely fit together in the algebraic framework of integro-differential rings, which are…
A ringoid is a set with two binary operations that are linked by the distributive laws. We study special classes of ringoids that are congruence-simple or ideal-simple. In particular, we examine generalised parasemifields and…
We study linear difference equations with variable coefficients in a ring using a new nonlinear method. In a ring with identity, if the homogeneous part of the linear equation has a solution in the unit group of the ring (i.e., a unitary…
We study a certain truncation of the ring of arithmetical functions with unitary convolution, consisting of functions vanishing on arguments >n. The truncations are artinian monomial quotients of a polynomial ring in finitely many…
The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra can be thought of as a statement about the real numbers as a space, considered as an algebraic set over the real numbers as a field. This paper introduces what it means for an algebraic set or affine…
