Let $K\langle X\rangle =K\langle X_1,...,X_n\rangle$ be the free algebra of $n$ generators over a field $K$, and let $R\langle X\rangle =R\langle X_1,...,X_n\rangle$ be the free algebra of $n$ generators over an arbitrary commutative ring…

We show that a strong form (the fully faithful version) of the generating hypothesis, introduced by Freyd in algebraic topology, holds in the derived category of a ring R if and only if R is von Neumann regular. This extends results of the…

A $k$-tuple $(H_1, \ldots, H_k)$ of core-free subgroups of a finite group $G$ is said to be regular if $G$ has a regular orbit on the Cartesian product $G/H_1 \times \cdots \times G/H_k$. The regularity number of $G$, denoted $R(G)$, is the…

The rank of a point-line geometry G is usually defined as the generating rank of G, namely the minimal cardinality of a generating set. However, when the subspace lattice of G satisfies the Exchange Property we can also try a different…

In this paper, we study the minimal generating system of the canonical module of a Hibi ring. Using the results, we state a characterization of a Hibi ring to be level. We also give a characterization of a Hibi ring to be of type 2.…

An element $x \in R$ is considered (strongly) nil-clean if it can be expressed as the sum of an idempotent $e \in R$ and a nilpotent $b \in R$ (where $eb = be$). If for any $x \in R$, there exists a unit $u \in R$ such that $ux$ is…

In this paper we show that for a torsion-free abelian group $G$, $\operatorname{rank}_\mathbb{Z}G<\infty$ if and only if there exists a Noetherian $G$-graded ring $R$ such that the set $\{R_g \neq 0\}$ generates the group $G$. For every $G$…

We consider the amenability of groupoids $G$ equipped with a group valued cocycle $c:G\to Q$ with amenable kernel $c^{-1}(e)$. We prove a general result which implies, in particular, that $G$ is amenable whenever $Q$ is amenable and if…

A finite group $G$ is called *uniformly generated*, if whenever there is a (strictly ascending) chain of subgroups $1<\langle x_1\rangle<\langle x_1,x_2\rangle <\cdots<\langle x_1,x_2,\dots,x_d\rangle=G$, then $d$ is the minimal number of…

We investigate the connection between the abelian rank of a countable amenable group and the existence of good averaging sequences (e.g. for the pointwise ergodic theorem). We show that if $G$ is a group of abelian rank $r(G)$ then any…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group and let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. We consider associative unital algebras $A$ over $K$ graded by $G$, that is $A=\oplus_{g\in G} A_g$, where the vector subspaces $A_g$…

If $g\in G$ is a non-trivial element in a residually finite group, then there exists by definition a finite group $Q$ and a homomorphism $\varphi: G \to Q$ such that $\varphi(g) \neq e$. The residual finiteness growth $\text{RF}_G$ of a…

Recall that a rng is a ring which is possibly non-unital. In this note, we address the problem whether every finitely generated idempotent rng (abbreviated as irng) is singly generated as an ideal. It is well-known that it is the case for a…

For any group $G$, the Gorenstein homological dimension ${\rm Ghd}_RG$ is defined to be the Gorenstein flat dimension of the coefficient ring $R$, which is considered as an $RG$-module with trivial group action. We prove that ${\rm Ghd}_RG…

Let $E$ be a module of projective dimension one over $R=k[x_1,\ldots,x_d]$. If $E$ is presented by a matrix $\varphi$ with linear entries and the number of generators of $E$ is bounded locally up to codimension $d-1$, the Rees ring…

Let $g$ be an element of a group $G$. For a positive integer $n$, let $E_n(g)$ be the subgroup generated by all commutators $[...[[x,g],g],\dots ,g]$ over $x\in G$, where $g$ is repeated $n$ times. We prove that if $G$ is a profinite group…

We give very precise bounds for the congruence subgroup growth of arithmetic groups. This allows us to determine the subgroup growth of irreducible lattices of semisimple Lie groups. In the most general case our results depend on the…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring of dimension $d$. First, we define the "geometric subring" $A$ of a polynomial ring $R[T]$ of dimension $d+1$ (the definition of geometric subring is more general, see (1.2)). Then we prove that…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $\Gamma$ be an infinite discrete group. The algebraic $K$-theory of the group ring $R[\Gamma]$ is an important object of computation in geometric topology and number theory. When the group ring is…

A finite group $G$ is called uniformly semi-rational if there exists an integer $r$ such that the generators of every cyclic sugroup $\langle x \rangle$ of $G$ lie in at most two conjugacy classes, namely $x^G$ or $(x^r)^G$. In this paper,…
