Let K be a compact Lie group and W a finite-dimensional real K-module. Let X be a K-stable real algebraic subset of W. Let I(X) denote the ideal of X in R[W] and let I_K(X) be the ideal generated by I(X)^K. We find necessary conditions and…
For an arbitrary field K, let I be an ideal in the ring K[[x,y]] expressible as a polynomial in either the pair of ideals (x, y^4) and (x,y) or the pair (x,y^3) and (x^2, y). Let G be the group of automorphisms of K[[x,y]] sending the ideal…
This paper has two aims. The first is to study ideals of minors of matrices whose entries are among the variables of a polynomial ring. Specifically, we describe matrices whose ideals of minors of a given size are prime. The main result in…
If $I$ is a monomial ideal with linear quotients, then it has componentwise linear quotients. However, the converse of this statement is an open question. In this paper, we provide two classes of ideals for which the converse of this…
The structure of Sally modules of $\fkm$-primary ideals $I$ in a Cohen-Macaulay local ring $(A, \m)$ satisfying the equality $\e_1(I)=\e_0(I)-\ell_A(A/I)+1$ is explored, where $\e_0(I)$ and $\e_1(I)$ denote the first two Hilbert…
For given real or complex $m \times n$ data matrices $X$, $Y$, we investigate when there is a matrix $A$ such that $AX = Y$, and $A$ is invertible, Hermitian, positive (semi)definite, unitary, an orthogonal projection, a reflection, complex…
Avramov, Conca, and Iyengar ask whether $\beta_i^S(R) \leq \binom{g}{i}$ for all $i$ when $R=S/I$ is a Koszul algebra minimally defined by $g$ quadrics. In recent work, we give an affirmative answer to this question when $g \leq 4$ by…
The purpose of this paper is twofold. Firstly, to emphasise that the class of Lie algebras with chain lattices of ideals are elementary blocks in the embedding or decomposition of Lie algebras with finite lattice of ideals. Secondly, to…
We give canonical matrices of a pair (A,B) consisting of a nondegenerate form B and a linear operator A satisfying B(Ax,Ay)=B(x,y) on a vector space over F in the following cases: (i) F is an algebraically closed field of characteristic…
Let $I$ be an ideal generated by quadrics in a standard graded polynomial ring $S$ over a field. A question of Avramov, Conca, and Iyengar asks whether the Betti numbers of $R = S/I$ over $S$ can be bounded above by binomial coefficients on…
In this paper we shall consider the Lie algebra of column-finite infinite matrices indexed by positive integers $\mathbb{N}$, describe the lattice of its ideals for arbitrary field $K$ and study its derivations over any commutative, unital…
In this article, we prove that in a PI-ring (or polynomial identity ring) $S$, for an element $A \in \mathbb{M}_m(S)$ if $A^n= A^{n+1}X$ for some $n \in \mathbb{N}$ and $X \in \mathbb{M}_m(S)$, then there exists an element $Y\in…
We determine simplicity criteria in characteristics 0 and $p$ for a ubiquitous class of iterated skew polynomial rings in two indeterminates over a base ring. One obstruction to simplicity is the possible existence of a canonical normal…
We study the linear syzygies of a homogeneous ideal I in a polynomial ring S, focusing on the graded betti numbers b_(i,i+1) = dim_k Tor_i(S/I, k)_(i+1). For a variety X and divisor D with S = Sym(H^0(D)*), what conditions on D ensure that…
Let $R=k[x,y,z]$ be a standard graded $3$-variable polynomial ring, where $k$ denotes any field. We study grade $3$ homogeneous ideals $I \subseteq R$ defining compressed rings with socle $k(-s)^{\ell} \oplus k(-2s+1)$, where $s \geq3$ and…
A new class of noncommutative $k$-algebras (for $k$ an algebraically closed field) is defined and shown to contain some important examples of quantum groups. To each such algebra, a first order theory is assigned describing models of a…
We prove that if R is a principal ideal ring and A\in\M_n(R) is a matrix with trace zero, then A is a commutator, that is, A=XY-YX for some X,Y\in\M_n(R). This generalises the corresponding result over fields due to Albert and Muckenhoupt,…
Let $R$ be an associative ring with identity and let $N$ be a nil ideal of $R$. It is shown that units of $R/N$ can be lifted to units in $R$. Under some mild conditions on the ring, a procedure is given to determine those lifted units in a…
Given a square matrix $A$ with entries in a commutative ring $S$, the ideal of $S[X]$ consisting of polynomials $f$ with $f(A) =0$ is called the null ideal of $A$. Very little is known about null ideals of matrices over general commutative…
Let F be a non-archimedian local field of characteristic 0, and O the ring of integres in F. We give an explicit formula for the Siegel series of a half-integral matrix over O. This formula expresses the Siegel series of a half-integral…
