In this note I give a description of Lyubeznik's local cohomology invariants for a certain natural class of local rings, namely the ones which have the same local cohomology vanishing as one expects from an isolated singularity. This…
Let $R$ be a standard graded polynomial ring that is finitely generated over a field of characteristic $0$, let $\mathfrak{m}$ be the homogeneous maximal ideal of $R$, and let $I$ be a homogeneous prime ideal of $R$. Dao and Monta\~{n}o…
We construct a local Cohen-Macaulay ring $R$ with a prime ideal $\mathfrak{p}\in\spec(R)$ such that $R$ satisfies the uniform Auslander condition (UAC), but the localization $R_{\mathfrak{p}}$ does not satisfy Auslander's condition (AC).…
In this paper we prove a new version of the Schoenflies extension theorem for collared domains in Euclidean n-space: for 1 < p < n, locally bi-Lipschitz homeomorphisms between collared domains with locally p-integrable, second-order weak…
A Chern-Weil construction for extensions of Lie-Rinehart algebras is introduced. This generalizes the classical Chern-Weil construction in differential geometry and yields characteristic classes for arbitrary extensions of Lie-Rinehart…
This article is concerned with homological properties of local or graded rings whose defining relations are monomials on some regular sequence. The main result of the article positively answers a question of Avramov for such a ring $R$.…
We construct expanding endomorphisms on smooth manifolds that are homeomorphic to tori yet have exotic underlying PL-structures.
Given a closed Riemannian manifold M and a (virtual) epimorphism from the fundamental group of M onto a free group of rank 2, we construct a tower of finite sheeted regular covers {M_n}_{n=0}^{\infty} of M such that the first non-zero…
Powering the adjacency matrix of an expander graph results in a better expander of higher degree. In this paper we seek an analogue operation for high-dimensional expanders. We show that the naive approach to powering does not preserve…
Given a proper toric variety and a line bundle on it, we describe the morphism on singular cohomology given by the cup product with the Chern class of that line bundle in terms of the data of the associated fan. Using that, we relate the…
We are working in the category of commutative unital rings and denote by $\mathrm U(R)$ the group of units of a nonzero ring $R$. An extension of rings $R\subseteq S$, satisfying $\mathrm U(R)=R \cap\mathrm U(S)$ is usually called local.…
We construct explicit examples that are algebraic varieties in positive characteristic to show that locally trivial moduli functors do not always satisfy Schlessinger's condition $(H_1)$ in [3], in contrast to the complex/characteristic $0$…
A depth two extension $A \| B$ is shown to be weak depth two over its double centralizer $V_A(V_A(B))$ if this is separable over $B$. We consider various examples and non-examples of depth one and two properties. Depth two and its…
In this paper, at first, we show that for a ramified regular local ring $S$, which is an Eisenstein extension of an unramified regular local ring $R$, when an ideal $I$ of $S$ is extended from an ideal $J$ of $R$, the punctured spectrum of…
It is well-known that for a large class of local rings of positive characteristic, including complete intersection rings, the Frobenius endomorphism can be used as a test for finite projective dimension. In this paper, we exploit this…
We associate to every equicharacteristic zero Noetherian local ring $R$ a faithfully flat ring extension which is an ultraproduct of rings of various prime characteristics, in a weakly functorial way. Since such ultraproducts carry…
Let $k$ be an arbitrary field. We construct examples of regular local $k$-algebras $R$ (of positive dimension) for which the ring of differential operators $D_k(R)$ is trivial in the sense that it contains {\it no} operators of positive…
We study the construction and properties of modules whose endomorphism rings have a unique two-sided maximal ideal.
Graded Artinian algebras can be regarded as algebraic analogues of cohomology rings (in even degrees) of compact topological manifolds. In this analogy, a free extension of a base ring with a fiber ring corresponds to a fiber bundle over a…
We show that K2 of "sufficiently regular" localisations of local rings (e.g. inverting a sequence of regular parameters) can be described by the Steinberg presentation. The proof is inductive on the number of irreducible elements being…
