We introduce a dual Zariski topology on the spectrum of fully coprime $R$-submodules of a given duo module $M$ over an associative (not necessarily commutative) ring $R$. This topology is defined in a way dual to that of defining the…
We exhibit Pontryagin duality as a special case of Stone duality in a continuous logic setting. More specifically, given an abelian topological group $A$, and $\mathcal F$ the family (group) of continuous homomorphisms from $A$ to the…
For Pontryagin's group duality in the setting of locally compact topological Abelian groups, the topology on the character group is the compact open topology. There exist at present two extensions of this theory to topological groups which…
Let $(R,\fm)$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring. If $R$ has a canonical module, then there are some interesting results about duality for this situation. In this paper, we show that one can indeed obtain similar these results in the case $R$…
Let $(R, \mathfrak{m})$ be a Noetherian local ring. In this paper, we introduce a dual notion for dualizing modules, namely codualizing modules. We study the basic properties of codualizing modules and use them to establish an equivalence…
Let R be a commutative ring with identity and M be an R-module. The purpose of this paper is to introduce and investigate the dual notion of morphic modules over a commutative ring.
For a topological monoid S the dual inverse monoid is the topological monoid of all identity preserving homomorphisms from S to the circle with attached zero. A topological monoid S is defined to be reflexive if the canonical homomorphism…
Poitou-Tate duality for the Galois group of an extension of a global field with appropriately restricted ramification can be seen as taking place between the cohomology of a compact or discrete module and the compactly-supported cohomology…
We define cohomological complexes of locally compact abelian groups associated with varieties over $p$-adic fields and prove a duality theorem under some assumption. Our duality takes the form of Pontryagin duality between locally compact…
A topological commutative ring is said to be rigid when for every set $X$, the topological dual of the $X$-fold topological product of the ring is isomorphic to the free module over $X$. Examples are fields with a ring topology, discrete…
Pontrjagin duality is implemented in the framework of fibre bundles. By means of Pontrjagin duality triples a Fourier transform is defined by a pull-push construction operating on sections of line bundles. This yields an isomorphism of…
In this paper we study the properties of the finite topology on the dual of a module over an arbitrary ring. We aim to give conditions when certain properties of the field case are can be still found here. Investigating the correspondence…
The well-known theory of Pontryagin duality provides a strong connection between the homology and cohomology theories of a profinite group in appropriate categories. A construction for taking the `profinite direct sum' of an infinite family…
Given a duo module $M$ over an associative (not necessarily commutative) ring $R,$ a Zariski topology is defined on the spectrum $\mathrm{Spec}^{\mathrm{fp}}(M)$ of {\it fully prime} $R$-submodules of $M$. We investigate, in particular, the…
Like quantum groups, quantum groupoids frequently appear in pairs of mutually dual objects. We develop a general Pontrjagin duality theory for quantum groupoids in the algebraic setting that extends Van Daele's duality theory for multiplier…
Let $(R,\fm)$ be a relative Cohen-Macaulay local ring with respect to an ideal $\fa$ of $R$ and set $c:=\h\fa$. In this paper, we investigate some properties of the Matlis dual $\H_{\fa}^c(R)^{\vee}$ of the $R$-module $\H_{\fa}^c(R)$ and we…
Differential modules over a commutative differential ring R which are finitely generated projective as ring modules, with differential homomorphisms, form an additive category, so their isomorphism classes form a monoid. We study the…
Let $C$ be a $k$-coalgebra, where $k$ is a field. The category of pseudocompact left $C^*$-modules is dual to both the category of discrete right $C^*$-modules and to the category of left $C$-comodules. We obtain this way two sides of a…
For a Noetherian local ring $(R,{\mathfrak m})$ with $\mathfrak p\in \Spec(R)$ we denote $E_R(R/\mathfrak p)$ by the $R$-injective hull of $R/\mathfrak p$. We will show that it has an $\hat{R}^\mathfrak p$-module structure and there is an…
Recently an algebra of smooth valuations was attached to any smooth manifold. Roughly put, a smooth valuation is finitely additive measure on compact submanifolds with corners which satisfies some extra properties. In this note we initiate…
