We show that if a non-associative unital ring is graded by a hypercentral group, then the ring is simple if and only if it is graded simple and the center of the ring is a field. Thereby, we extend a result by Jespers to a non-associative…
In this article, we study Ore extensions of non-unital associative rings. We provide a characterization of simple non-unital differential polynomial rings $R[x;\delta]$, under the hypothesis that $R$ is $s$-unital and $\ker(\delta)$…
The classical Noether Normalization Lemma states that if $S$ is a finitely generated algebra over a field $k$, then there exist elements $x_1,\dots,x_n$ which are algebraically independent over $k$ such that $S$ is a finite module over…
We determine sufficient criteria for the differential smoothness of ambiskew polynomial rings defined and studied by D. A. Jordan in several papers \cite{FishJordan2019, Jordan1993b, Jordan2000, JordanWells2013}.
Given a group G acting on a ring R, one can construct the skew group ring R*G. Skew group rings have been studied in depth, but necessary and sufficient conditions for the simplicity of a general skew group ring are not known. In this…
One construction of the Alexander polynomial is as a quantum invariant associated with representations of restricted quantum $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ at a fourth root of unity. We generalize this construction to define a link invariant…
We construct new knot polynomials. Let $V$ be the standard solid torus in 3-space and let $pr$ be its standard projection onto an annulus. Let $M$ be the space of all smooth oriented knots in $V$ such that the restriction of $pr$ is an…
By using Laurent graph polynomials instead of the usual ones, i.e. by allowing negative powers of the variables, we simplify an existing method of determining the Alon-Tarsi numbers of planar graphs.
We construct $N$-complexes of non completely antisymmetric irreducible tensor fields on $\mathbb R^D$ which generalize the usual complex $(N=2)$ of differential forms. Although, for $N\geq 3$, the generalized cohomology of these…
We study Grothendieck rings (in the sense of logic) of fields. We prove the triviality of the Grothendieck rings of certain fields by constructing definable bijections which imply the triviality. More precisely, we consider valued fields,…
Two are the objectives of the present paper. First we study properties of a differentially simple commutative ring R with respect to a set D of derivations of R. Among the others we investigate the relation between the D-simplicity of R and…
We exhibit a family of sequences of noncommutative variables, recursively defined using monic palindromic polynomials in $\mathbb Q[x]$, and show that each possesses the Laurent phenomenon. This generalizes a conjecture by Kontsevich.
It was shown by Fock, Goncharov and Fomin, Shapiro, Thurston that some cluster algebras arise from triangulated orientable suraces. Subsequently Dupont and Palesi generalised this construction to include unpunctured non-orientable surfaces,…
We introduce two classes of nonassociative algebras and define the building blocks in the context of the new nonassociative algebras.
The notion of derivation with invertible values as a derivation of ring with unity that only takes multiplicatively invertible or zero values appeared in a paper of Bergen, Herstein and Lanski, in which they determined the structure of…
We introduce non-associative Ore extensions, $S = R[X ; \sigma , \delta]$, for any non-associative unital ring $R$ and any additive maps $\sigma,\delta : R \rightarrow R$ satisfying $\sigma(1)=1$ and $\delta(1)=0$. In the special case when…
This paper is devoted to a complete parametric study of Liouvillian solutions of the general trace-free second order differential equation with a Laurent polynomial coefficient. This family of equations, for fixed orders at $0$ and $\infty$…
We provide a characterization of graded von Neumann regular rings involving the recently introduced class of nearly epsilon-strongly graded rings. As our main application, we generalize Hazrat's result that Leavitt path algebras over fields…
This paper is expository and is accessible to students. We define simple invariants of knots or links (linking number, Arf-Casson invariants and Alexander-Conway polynomials) motivated by interesting results whose statements are accessible…
The first part of the paper will describe a recent result of K. Retert in (\cite{Ret}) for $k[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ and $k[[x_1,\ldots,x_n]]$. This result states that if $\mathfrak{D}$ is a set of commute $k$-derivations of $k[x,y]$ such that…
