Denote by $\continuum=2^{\aleph_0}$ the cardinal of continuum. We construct an intriguing family $(P_\alpha: \alpha\in\continuum)$ of prime $z$-ideals in $\C_0(\reals)$ with the following properties: If $f\in P_{i_0}$ for some…

We study the collection of points on the modular surface obtained from the logarithm embeddings of the groups of units in totally real cubic number fields. We conjecture that this set is dense and show that its closure contains countably…

In this paper, we study pointed rank one Hopf algebras and Hopf-Ore extensions of group algebras, over an arbitrary field $k$. It is proved that the rank of a Hopf-Ore extension of a group algebra is one or two or infinite. It is also shown…

A classification is given for (regular) positions of direct sums of two matroid algebras (unital algebraic limits of matrix algebras) in a matroid superalgebra, where the individual summands have index 2 in their associated corner algebra.…

We prove that limits of multiplicities associated to graded families of ideals exist under very general conditions. Most of our results hold for analytically unramified equicharacteristic local rings, with perfect residue fields. We give a…

Let $\chi(x)\in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ be a monic polynomial whose roots are distinct integers. We study the ideal class monoid and the ideal class group of the ring $\mathbb{Z}[x]/(\chi(x))$. We obtain formulas for the orders of these objects, and…

The ordered structures of natural, integer, rational and real numbers are studied here. It is known that the theories of these numbers in the language of order are decidable and finitely axiomatizable. Also, their theories in the language…

Matrices over the dual numbers are considered. We propose an approach to classify these matrices up to similarity. Some preliminary results on the realization of this approach are obtained. In particular, we produce explicitly canonical…

Higher order cohomology of arithmetic groups is expressed in terms of (g,K)-cohomology. Generalizing results of Borel, it is shown that the latter can be computed using functions of (uniform) moderate growth. A higher order versions of…

We enumerate the 15768 perfect groups of order up to $2\cdot 10^6$, up to isomorphism, thus also completing the missing cases in the prior classification. The work supplements the by now well-understood computer classifications of solvable…

We continue our study of operator algebras with and contractive approximate identities (cais). In earlier papers we have introduced and studied a new notion of positivity in operator algebras, with an eye to extending certain C*-algebraic…

We present some recently discovered infinite dimensional Lie algebras that can be understood as extensions of the algebra Map(M,g) of maps from a compact p-dimensional manifold to some finite dimensional Lie algebra g. In the first part of…

A characterization is given of the subsets of a group that extend to the positive cone of a right order on the group and used to relate validity of equations in lattice-ordered groups (l-groups) to subsets of free groups that extend to…

Let $\pi$ be a finite $p$-group and $\mathbb{F}_q$ a finite field with $q=p^n$ elements. Denote by $\mathrm{I}_{\mathbb{F}_q}$ the augmentation ideal of the group ring $\mathbb{F}_q[\pi]$. We have found a surprising relation between the…

For an algebraic number $\alpha$ of degree $n$, let $\mathcal{M}_{\alpha}$ be the $\mathbb{Z}$-module generated by $1,\alpha ,\ldots ,\alpha^{n-1}$; then $\mathbb{Z}_{\alpha}:=\{\xi\in\mathbb{Q} (\alpha ):\,…

For a given divison algebra of the quaternions we construct two types of units: Pell units and Gauss units. If K is a rational quadratic extension and G is a finite group, we classify R and G, s.t., the unit group U(RG) of augmentation one…

We consider the normal matrix ensemble under a general confining potential. We find that the eigenvalues condensate on a compact set in the plane, which we call the spectral droplet. We also study the evolution of incrementally adding a…

Topological order in two-dimensional systems is studied by combining the braid group formalism with a gauge invariance analysis. We show that flux insertions (or large gauge transformations) pertinent to the toroidal topology induce…

We study the homogeneous coordinate rings of real multiplication noncommutative tori as defined by A. Polishchuk. Our aim is to understand how these rings give rise to an arithmetic structure on the noncommutative torus. We start by giving…

The aim of this work is to generalize a very important type of Lie algebras and superalgebras, i.e. filiform Lie (super)algebras, into the theory of Lie algebras of order F$. Thus, the concept of filiform Lie algebras of order F is…
