We study functions from a unique factorization monoid to a field. The set of all such functions is a commutative ring isomorphic to a ring of formal power series over the field, with indeterminates indexed by the prime elements of the…

Let $R$ be a finitely generated $\mathbb N$-graded algebra domain over a Noetherian ring and let $I$ be a homogeneous ideal of $R$. Given $P\in Ass(R/I)$ one defines the $v$-invariant $v_P(I)$ of $I$ at $P$ as the least $c\in \mathbb N$…

We show that every polynomial overring of the ring ${\rm Int}(\mathbb Z)$ of polynomials which are integer-valued over $\mathbb Z$ may be considered as the ring of polynomials which are integer-valued over some subset of $\hat{\mathbb{Z}}$,…

We visualize the identity p(n) = sum s(k) p(n-k)/n for the integer partition function p(n) involving the divisor function s, add comments on the history of visualizations of numbers, illustrate how different mathematical fields play…

We show that, like in the case of algebras over fields, the study of multilinear polynomial identities of unitary rings can be reduced to the study of proper polynomial identities. In particular, the factors of series of $\mathbb…

Let R be the ring of S-integers of an algebraic function field (in one variable) over a perfect field, where S is finite and not empty. It is shown that for every positive integer N there exist elements of R that can not be written as a sum…

Recognizing when a ring is a complete matrix ring is of significant importance in algebra. It is well-known folklore that a ring $R$ is a complete $n\times n$ matrix ring, so $R\cong M_{n}(S)$ for some ring $S$, if and only if it contains a…

Let $\S $ be an arbitrary subset of $R^n$ where $R$ is a domain with the field of fractions $\K$. Denote the ring of polynomials in $n$ variables over $\K$ by $\K[\x].$ The ring of integer-valued polynomials over $\S,$ denoted by…

Semi-free ideal rings, or semifirs, were introduced by Paul M. Cohn to study universal localizations in the non-commutative setting. We provide new examples of semifirs consisting of analytic functions in several non-commuting variables.…

In this paper we analyze the notion of morphisms of rings of superfunctions which is the basic concept underlying the definition of supermanifolds as ringed spaces (i.e. following Berezin, Leites, Manin, etc.). We establish a representation…

We define a ring whose elements are rational functions, whose addition is polynomial multiplication, and whose multiplication is a convolution operation. It is then show that this ring's endomorphisms exhibit a strong classification.…

In this paper we study the ring $\mathcal{P}$ of combinatorial convex polytopes. We introduce the algebra of operators $\mathcal{D}$ generated by the operators $d_k$ that send an $n$-dimensional polytope $P^n$ to the sum of all its…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring, $f \in R[X_1,\ldots,X_k]$ a multivariate polynomial, and $G$ a finite subgroup of the group of units of $R$ satisfying a certain constraint, which always holds if $R$ is a field. Then, we evaluate $\sum…

Let $R$ be a ring with $1$ and $\J(R)$ its Jacobson radical. Then $1+\J(R)$ is a normal subgroup of the group of units, $G(R)$. The existence of a complement to this subgroup was explored in a paper by Coleman and Easdown; in particular the…

This paper is a survey of plurisubharmonic theory where the usual polynomial ring is replaced by a polynomial ring $\mathcal P^S(\mathbb C^n)$ where the $m$-th degree polynomials have exponents restricted to $mS$, where $S\subseteq \mathbb…

Let $ \mathcal{S}(p) $ be the class of all meromorphic univalent functions defined in the unit disc $ \mathbb{D} $ of the complex plane with a simple pole at $ z=p $ and normalized by the conditions $ f(0)=0 $ and $ f^{\prime}(0)=1 $. In…

We generalize the usual relationship between irreducible Zariski closed subsets of the affine space, their defining ideals, coordinate rings, and function fields, to a non-commutative setting, where "varieties" carry a PGL_n-action, regular…

The paper proves sum-of-square-of-rational-function based representations (shortly, sosrf-based representations) of polynomial matrices that are positive semidefinite on some special sets: $\mathbb{R}^n;$ $\mathbb{R}$ and its intervals…

We obtain results describing the behavior of the action of rotation generators on polynomials over a commutative ring. We also explore harmonic polynomials in a purely algebraic setting.

Consider the representations of an algebraic group G. In general, polynomial invariant functions may fail to separate orbits. The invariant subring may not be finitely generated, or the number and complexity of the generators may grow…
