A domain $R$ is said to have the finite factorization property if every nonzero non-unit element of $R$ has at least one and at most finitely many distinct factorizations up to multiplication of irreducible factors by central units. Let $k$…
Rings of integer-valued polynomials are known to be atomic, non-factorial rings furnishing examples for both irreducible elements for which all powers factor uniquely (\emph{absolutely irreducibles}) and irreducible elements where some…
Let $R$ be a semilocal principal ideal domain. Two algebraic objects over $R$ in which scalar extension makes sense (e.g. quadratic spaces) are said to be of the same genus if they become isomorphic after extending scalars to all…
A commutative integral domain is primary if and only if it is one-dimensional and local. A domain is strongly primary if and only if it is local and each nonzero principal ideal contains a power of the maximal ideal. Hence one-dimensional…
An integral domain $D$ is called a \emph{prime-divisor-finite domain} (PDF-domain) if every nonzero element has only finitely many nonassociate prime divisors. A domain $D$ is said to be a \emph{tightly prime-divisor-finite domain}…
Pseudopotentials, tight-binding models, and $k\cdot p$ theory have stood for many years as the standard techniques for computing electronic states in crystalline solids. Here we present the first new method in decades, which we call…
We characterize simply connected John domains in the plane with the aid of weak tangents of the boundary. Specifically, we prove that a bounded simply connected domain $D$ is a John domain if and only if, for every weak tangent $Y$ of…
A reaction system exhibits "absolute concentration robustness" (ACR) in some species if the positive steady-state value of that species does not depend on initial conditions. Mathematically, this means that the positive part of the variety…
Neural Probabilistic Circuits (NPCs), a new class of concept bottleneck models, comprise an attribute recognition model and a probabilistic circuit for reasoning. By integrating the outputs from these two modules, NPCs produce compositional…
An integral domain $R$ is an $i$-domain if for every overring $S$ of $R$, $\text{Spec}(S) \rightarrow \text{Spec}(R)$ is injective and is a mated integral if for every overring $S$ of $R$ and prime ideal $P$ of $R$ such that $PS \neq S$,…
We provide an irreducibility test and factoring algorithm (with some qualifications) for formal power series in the unique factorization domain $R[[X]]$, where $R$ is any principal ideal domain. We also classify all integral domains arising…
We derive Adams inequalities for potentials on general measure spaces, extending and improving previous results obtained by the authors. The integral operators involved, which we call "Riesz subcritical", have kernels whose decreasing…
Let $\Gamma$ be a torsionless commutative cancellative monoid and $R =\bigoplus_{\alpha \in \Gamma}R_{\alpha}$ be a $\Gamma$-graded integral domain. In this paper, we introduce the notion of graded going-down domains. Among other things, we…
We have introduced and studied in [3] the class of Globalized multiplicatively pinched-Dedekind domains (GMPD domains). This class of domains could be characterized by a certain factorization property of the non-invertible ideals, (see [3,…
Integral categories form a sub-class of pre-abelian categories whose systematic study was initiated by Rump in 2001. In the first part of this article we determine whether several categories of topological and bornological vector spaces are…
It has been a well-known fact since Euclid's time that there exist infinitely many rational primes. Two natural questions arise: In which other rings, sufficiently similar to the integers, are there infinitely many irreducible elements? Is…
Let $S$ be a nonnegative semiring of the real line, called here a positive semiring. We study factorizations in both the additive monoid $(S,+)$ and the multiplicative monoid $(S\setminus\{0\}, \cdot)$. In particular, we investigate when,…
The nonnegative rank of a matrix A is the smallest integer r such that A can be written as the sum of r rank-one nonnegative matrices. The nonnegative rank has received a lot of attention recently due to its application in optimization,…
We study some factorization properties of the idealization $R \mathop{(\! + \! )} M$ of a module $M$ in a commutative ring $R$ which is not necessarily a domain. We show that $R \mathop{(\! + \! )} M$ is ACCP if and only if $R$ is ACCP and…
A classical problem, that goes back to the 1960's, is to characterize the integral domains R satisfying the property (IDn): "every singular nxn matrix over R is a product of idempotent matrices". Significant results, which describe this…
