Let $k$ be an arbitrary field. We construct examples of regular local $k$-algebras $R$ (of positive dimension) for which the ring of differential operators $D_k(R)$ is trivial in the sense that it contains {\it no} operators of positive…

A left and right noetherian semiperfect ring R is known to be indecomposable if and only if its factor by the second power of Jacobson radical is. This characterisation is used to study simple R-modules in terms of their Ext groups. It is…

In this article we discuss some applications of the construction of the Ap\'ery set of a good semigroup in $\mathbb{N}^d$ given in the previous paper [Partition of the complement of good semigroup ideals and Ap\'ery sets, Communications in…

The notion of clean rings and 2-good rings have many variations, and have been widely studied. We provide a few results about two new variations of these concepts and discuss the theory that ties these variations to objects and properties…

It is proved that if $D$ is a $UFD$ and $R$ is a $D$-algebra, such that $U(R)\cap D\neq U(D)$, then $R$ has a maximal subring. In particular, if $R$ is a ring which either contains a unit $x$ which is not algebraic over the prime subring of…

In this paper we consider two functions related to the arithmetic and geometric means of element orders of a finite group, showing that certain lower bounds on such functions strongly affect the group structure. In particular, for every…

Given a polynomial endomorphism F of the n-dimensional affine space over a field K, we define a sequence of polynomial endomorphisms of the affine space associated to F. We call F nice if there exists an integer m such that the m-th term of…

We show that the coordinate ring of a simply-connected simple algebraic group $G$ over the complex number field coincides with the Berenstein--Fomin--Zelevinsky cluster algebra and its upper cluster algebra, at least when $G$ is not of type…

Let A be an affine algebra over the field of real numbers of dimension d. Let f \in A be an element not belonging to any real maximal ideal of A. Let P be a projective A-module of rank \geq d-1. Let (a,p) \in A_f \oplus P_f be a unimodular…

In this paper, we give new criteria for affineness of a variety defined over $\Bbb{C}$. Our main result is that an irreducible algebraic variety $Y$ (may be singular) of dimension $d$ ($d\geq 1$) defined over $\Bbb{C}$ is an affine variety…

A ring is *unit-additive* if a sum of units is always either a unit or nilpotent. For example, $k[X]$ and $k[X]/(X^2)$ are unit-additive, but $\mathbb Z$ is not. We prove a wide-ranging theorem about unit-additivity in semigroup rings,…

Let p be a prime, M be a finite group, F be the field with p elements, and V be an absolutely irreducible FM-module. Then V has a universal deformation ring R(M,V) whose structure is closely related to the first and second cohomology groups…

A ring $R$ is said to be clean if each element of $R$ can be written as the sum of a unit and an idempotent. $R$ is said to be weakly clean if each element of $R$ is either a sum or a difference of a unit and an idempotent, and $R$ is said…

Given a recollement of three proper dg algebras over a noetherian commutative ring, e.g. three algebras which are finitely generated over the base ring, which extends one step downwards, it is shown that there is a short exact sequence of…

The strong global dimension of a ring is the supremum of the length of perfect complexes that are indecomposable in the derived category. In this note we characterize the noetherian commutative rings that have finite strong global…

This is a survey on the automorphism groups in various classes of affine algebraic surfaces and the algebraic group actions on such surfaces. Being infinite-dimensional, these automorphism groups share some important features of algebraic…

Let G be a connected reductive linear algebraic group over a field k of characteristic p>0. Let p be large enough with respect to the root system. We show that if a finitely generated commutative k-algebra A with G-action has good…

In this short paper, we will provide a characterisation of interpretable groups in a beautiful pair (K, E) of algebraically closed fields : every interpretable group is, up to isogeny, the extension of the subgroup of E-rational points of…

For a commutative Noetherian ring R of dimension d and a commutative cancellative monoid M, the elementary action on unimodular n-rows over the monoid ring R[M] is transitive for n>=max(d+2,3). The starting point is the case of polynomial…

A topological group $G$ is extremely amenable if every continuous action of $G$ on a compact space has a fixed point. Using the concentration of measure techniques developed by Gromov and Milman, we prove that the group of automorphisms of…
