Let $X \subset \mathbb{P}(w_0, w_1, w_2, w_3)$ be a quasismooth well-formed weighted projective hypersurface and let $L = lcm(w_0,w_1,w_2,w_3)$. We characterize when $X$ is rational under the assumption that $L$ divides $deg(X)$ by…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be the class of rings for which every indecomposable right module is pure-projective or pure-injective. When $R$ is a Noetherian local commutative ring of maximal ideal $P$, it is proven that $R\in\mathcal{P}$ if and only…

In answering questions from arXiv:0901.2337v1 we prove a triangulation result that is of independent interest. In more detail, let R be an o-minimal field with a proper convex subring V, and let st: V \to k be the corresponding standard…

Given a ring $R$, we study the bimodules $M$ for which the trivial extension $R\propto M$ is morphic. We obtain a complete characterization in the case where $R$ is left perfect, and we prove that $R\propto Q/R$ is morphic when $R$ is a…

Let (R,m) be a noetherian local ring and let $\mathcal{C}$ be the class of all R-modules M which possess a reflexive submodule U such that M/U is finitely generated. For every R-module $M\in \mathcal{C}$ the canonical embedding $\varphi:…

Let $X$ be a ringed space together with the data $M$ of a set $M_x$ of prime ideals of $\O_{X,x}$ for each point $x \in X$. We introduce the localization of $(X,M)$, which is a locally ringed space $Y$ and a map of ringed spaces $Y \to X$…

Let $R$ be a regular domain containing a field $K$ of characteristic zero and let $D$ be the ring of $K$-linear differential operators on $R$. Let $E$ be an injective left $D$-module. We ask the question, when is $E$ injective as a…

In this paper we give a characterisation of real closure * of regular rings, which is quite similar to the characterisation of real closure * of Baer regular rings seen in [4]. We also characterize Baer-ness of regular rings using near-open…

Let R be a local complete ring. For an R-module M the canonical ring map R\to End_R(M) is in general neither injective nor surjective; we show that it is bijective for every local cohomology module M := H^h_I(R) if H^l_I(R) = 0 for every…

For a commutative ring $R$, we exploit localization techniques and point-free topology to give an explicit realization of both the Zariski frame of $R$ (the frame of radical ideals in $R$) and its Hochster dual frame, as lattices in the…

Let $\Bbbk$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>2$. Let $\mathcal{O}_n=\Bbbk[X_1,\ldots,X_n]/(X_1^p,\ldots, X_n^p)$, a truncated polynomial ring in $n$ variables, and denote by $\mathcal{L}$ the derivation algebra of…

Determining whether an arbitrary subring $R$ of $k[x_1^{\pm 1},\dots, x_n^{\pm 1}]$ is a normal domain is, in general, a nontrivial problem, even in the special case of a monomial generated domain. In this paper, we provide a complete…

Let $X\subset \mathbb {P}^r$ be an integral and non-degenerate variety. Set $n:= \dim (X)$. Let $\rho (X)''$ be the maximal integer such that every zero-dimensional scheme $Z\subset X$ smoothable in $X$ is linearly independent. We prove…

Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a complete equicharacteristic Noetherian domain of dimension $d + 1 \geq 2$. Assume $k = A/\mathfrak{m}$ has characteristic zero and that $A$ is not a regular local ring. Let $Sing(A)$ the singular locus of $A$ be…

We present a new algorithm to compute the integral closure of a reduced Noetherian ring in its total ring of fractions. A modification, applicable in positive characteristic, where actually all computations are over the original ring, is…

Rational pairs generalize the notion of rational singularities to reduced pairs $(X,D)$. In this paper we deal with the problem of determining whether a normal variety $X$ has a rationalizing divisor, i.e. a reduced divisor $D$ such that…

Let $A$ be an excellent two-dimensional normal local ring containing an algebraically closed field and let $X\to \mathrm{Spec} (A)$ be a resolution of singularity. We prove a theorem giving a condition under which the dimension of the…

Local Noetherian domains arising as local rings of points of varieties or in the context of algebraic number theory are analytically unramified, meaning their completions have no nontrivial nilpotent elements. However, looking elsewhere,…

Let $R$ be a complete regular local ring with an algebraically closed residue field and let $A$ be a Noetherian $R$-subalgebra of the polynomial ring $R[X]$. It has been shown in \cite{DO2} that if $\dim R=1$, then $A$ is necessarily…

We study the question of $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{ring}}$-definability of non-trivial henselian valuation rings. Building on previous work of Jahnke and Koenigsmann, we provide a characterization of henselian fields that admit a non-trivial…
