Free cumulants were introduced as the proper analog of classical cumulants in the theory of free probability. There is a mix of similarities and differences, when one considers the two families of cumulants. Whereas the combinatorics of…

Let $G$ be the semidirect product $\Gamma \rtimes F_2$ where $\Gamma$ is either the free group $F_n$, $n > 1$ or the fundamental group $S_g$ of a closed surface of genus $g > 1$. We prove that $G$ is incoherent, solving two problems posed…

It is well known that a nontrivial commutator in a free group is never a proper power. We prove a theorem that generalizes this fact and has several worthwhile corollaries. For example, an equation $[ x_1, y_1] \ldots [ x_k, y_k] = z^n$,…

We use free groups to settle a couple questions about the values of the Pimsner-Popa-Voiculescu modulus of quasidiagonality for a set of operators $\Omega$, denoted by qd$(\Omega)$. Along the way we deduce information about the operator…

The set of associative and commutative hypercomplex numbers, called the perfect hypercomplex algebra (PHA) is investigated. Necessary and sufficient conditions for an algebra to be a PHA via semi-tensor product(STP) of matrices are…

For a new class of algebras, called $EMV$-algebras, every idempotent element $a$ determines an $MV$-algebra which is important for the structure of the $EMV$-algebra. Therefore, instead of standard homomorphisms of $EMV$-algebras, we…

A group, $\fl{H}$, of automorphisms of a totally disconnected locally compact group, $G$, is flat if there is a compact open $U\leq G$ such that the index $[\alpha(U):U\cap \alpha(U)]$ is mininimized for every $\alpha\in\fl{H}$. The…

We describe solutions to the problem of elementary classification in the class of group algebras of free groups. We will show that unlike free groups, two group algebras of free groups over infinite fields are elementarily equivalent if and…

We study flat deformations of quotients of a polynomial algebra in a class of graded commutative associative algebras. Functional equations and their solutions in terms of theta functions play important role in these studies. An analog of…

We prove that a variety of algebras whose finitely generated members are free must be definitionally equivalent to the variety of sets, the variety of pointed sets, a variety of vector spaces over a division ring, or a variety of affine…

Past studies of the Brauer group of a scheme tells us the importance of the interrelationship among Brauer groups of its finite \'etale coverings. In this paper, we consider these groups simultaneously, and construct an integrated object…

Let R be any ring (with 1), \Gamma a group and R\Gamma the corresponding group ring. Let Ext_{R\Gamma}^{*}(M,M) be the cohomology ring associated to the R\Gamma-module M. Let H be a subgroup of finite index of \Gamma. The following is a…

Let $K$ be a complete quasivariety of topological inverse Clifford semigroups, containing all topological semilattices. It is shown that the free topological inverse semigroup $F(X,K)$ of $X$ in the class $K$ is an $R^\infty$-manifold if…

We show that any free product of finite-dimensional von Neumann algebras equipped with non-tracial states is isomorphic to a free Araki-Woods factor with its free quasi-free state possibly direct sum a finite-dimensional von Neumann…

Given a finitely generated subgroup $\Gamma \le \mathrm{Out}(\mathbb{F})$ of the outer automorphism group of the rank $r$ free group $\mathbb{F} = F_r$, there is a corresponding free group extension $1 \to \mathbb{F} \to E_{\Gamma} \to…

We classify (up to quasi-isomorphism) the free differential modules whose homology is equal to a given module $M$ by developing a theory for deforming an arbitrary free complex into a differential module. We use an iterative approach to…

Consider the obvious functor from the unbounded derived category of all finitely generated modules over a left noetherian ring $R$ to the unbounded derived category of all modules. We answer the natural question whether this functor defines…

Let $\Lambda$ be a finite-dimensional associative algebra over a field. A semibrick pair is a finite set of $\Lambda$-modules for which certain Hom- and Ext-sets vanish. A semibrick pair is completable if it can be enlarged so that a…
