Let X be an Enriques surface over the field of complex numbers. We prove that there exists a nontrivial quaternion algebra A on X. Then we study the moduli scheme of torsion free A-modules of rank one. Finally we prove that this moduli…

We show that there exist noncommutative Ore extensions in which every right ideal is two-sided. This answers a problem posed by Marks in Duo Rings and Ore extensions, J.Algebra 280(2), (2004). We also provide an easy construction of one…

We consider skew free extensions of rings, also known as free multivariate skew polynomial rings, and explore some of the algebraic aspects of this construction. We give different characterizations of such rings and present conditions for…

P\'olya's Positivstellensatz and Handelman's Positivstellensatz are known to be concrete instances of the abstract Archimedean Representation Theorem for (commutative unital) rings. We generalise the Archimedean Representation Theorem to…

In this paper, we aim to obtain some results under the condition that the dual of a module over a commutative Noetherian ring has finite Gorenstein dimension. In this direction, we derive results involving vanishing of Ext as well as the…

We study modules over a generalized Weyl algebra $R(\sigma,a)$ which are free when restricted to the base ring $R$. When $R$ is an integral domain, we construct all such finite-rank modules up to isomorphism, leading to new simple modules…

In this paper we present the definition of quasi-bases for modules over a ring that is commutative but not necessarily division and discuss properties that guarantee the existence of quasi-bases. Based on this result we further prove that…

If $R$ is a commutative unital ring and $M$ is a unital $R$-module, then each element of $\operatorname{End}_R(M)$ determines a left $\operatorname{End}_{R}(M)[X]$-module structure on $\operatorname{End}_{R}(M)$, where…

Let $K$ be the field of Laurent series with complex coefficients, let $\mathcal{R}$ be the inverse limit of the standard-graded polynomial rings $K[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$, and let $\mathcal{R}^{\flat}$ be the subring of $\mathcal{R}$ consisting…

Harm Derksen made a conjecture concerning degree bounds for the syzygies of rings of polynomial invariants in the non-modular case. We provide counterexamples to this conjecture, but also prove a slightly weakened version. We also prove…

In this paper, sufficient conditions for finitely generated modules over a commutative noetherian ring to be projective are given in terms of vanishing of Ext modules. One of the main results of this paper asserts that the Auslander--Reiten…

Given a base point free linear system on an algebraic variety, many classes of singularities are stable under taking suitable members after enlarging the base field. We establish analogous results when the base ring is an excellent ring.

We give degree lower bounds for quotient line bundles of the lowest piece of a Hodge module induced by a complex variation of Hodge structures outside a simple normal crossing divisor, beyond the unipotent variation case. This note aims to…

The main aim of this paper is to investigate rings over which all (finitely generated strongly) Gorenstein projective modules are projective. We consider this propriety under change of rings, and give various examples of rings with and…

We construct Zollfrei Lorentzian metrics on every nontrivial orientable circle bundle over a orientable closed surface. Further we prove a weaker version of Guillemin's conjecture assuming global hyperbolicity of the universal cover.

We generalize the polynomial Szemer\'{e}di theorem to intersective polynomials over the ring of integers of an algebraic number field, by which we mean polynomials having a common root modulo every ideal. This leads to the existence of new…

We prove an analogue of the Madsen-Weiss theorem for high dimensional manifolds. For example, we explicitly describe the ring of characteristic classes of smooth fibre bundles whose fibres are connected sums of g copies of S^n x S^n, in the…

We consider some combinatorial problems on matrix polynomials over finite fields. Using results from control theory we give a proof of a result of Helmke, Jordan and Lieb on the number of linear unimodular matrix polynomials over a finite…

We study just infinite algebras which remain so upon extension of scalars by arbitrary field extensions. Such rings are called stably just infinite. We show that just infinite rings over algebraically closed fields are stably just infinite…

A conjecture going back to the eighties claims that there are no non-trivial self-extensions of irreducible modules over symmetric groups if the characteristic of the ground field is not equal to $2$. We obtain some partial positive results…
