Let R be a commutative ring. A not necessarily commutative R-algebra A is called futile if it has only finitely many R-subalgebras. In this article we relate the notion of futility to familiar properties of rings and modules. We do this by…
The problem of linking the structure of a finite linear dynamical system with its dynamics is well understood when the phase space is a vector space over a finite field. The cycle structure of such a system can be described by the…
We prove that dagger closure is trivial in regular domains containing a field and that graded dagger closure is trivial in polynomial rings over a field. We also prove that Heitmann's full rank one closure coincides with tight closure in…
Absolute integral closures of general commutative unital rings are explored. All rings admit absolute integral closures, but in general they are not unique. Among the reduced rings with finitely many minimal prime ideals, finite products of…
We prove coherence of relatively quasi-free algebras over noetherian rings. Chase criterion for coherence is used.
A finite-dimensional unital and associative algebra over $\mathbb{R}$, or what we shall call simply "an algebra" in this paper for short, generalities the construction by which we derive the complex numbers by "adjoining an element $i$" to…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $S$ a multiplicative subset of $R$. In this paper, we first introduce and study the notions of $s$-pure exact sequences and $s$-absolutely pure modules which extend the classical notions of…
We apply recent results on the rank of elements of rings to study the structure of generalized corner rings $aRa$, where $R$ is a unital ring and $a$ an element of $R$. We give a complete description of the structure of $aRa$ when $a^2$ has…
We present a possible construction of coherent states on the unit circle as configuration space. In our approach the phase space is the product Z x S^1. Because of the duality of canonical coordinates and momenta, i.e. the angular variable…
We investigate finiteness conditions on modules of bounded projective dimension and their connection with generalized notions of coherence. For a ring $R$, we consider the class $\mathsf{FP}_n^{\le d}(R)$ of finitely $n$-presented modules…
We prove that one-relator groups are coherent, solving a well-known problem of Gilbert Baumslag. Our proof strategy is readily applicable to many classes of groups of cohomological dimension two. We show that fundamental groups of…
This survey article is concerned with the modeling of the kinematical structure of quantum systems in an algebraic framework which eliminates certain conceptual and computational difficulties of the conventional approaches. Relying on the…
Let $A$ be a finite-dimensional self-injective algebra over an algebraically closed field, $\mathcal{C}$ a stably quasi-serial component (i.e. its stable part is a tube) of rank $n$ of the Auslander-Reiten quiver of $A$, and $\mathcal{S}$…
We investigate homological properties of perfect algebras of prime characteristic. The principle is as follows: perfect algebras resolve the singularities. For example, we show any module over the ring of absolute integral closure has…
The schematic finite spaces are those finite ringed spaces where a theory of quasi-coherent modules can be developed with minimal natural conditions. We give various characterizations of these spaces and their natural morphisms. We show…
First we identify the free algebras of the class of algebras of binary relations equipped with the composition and domain operations. Elements of the free algebras are pointed labelled finite rooted trees. Then we extend to the analogous…
We give an elementary proof of a result which is not as well known as it should be: a ring with a specified finite number of zero divisors is finite, with a precise bound on its order.
The aim of this paper is to analize the structure of BL-algebras using commutative rings. From computational considerations, we are very interested in the finite case. We present new ways to generate finite BL-algebras using commutative…
Let R be a local ring and A a connected differential graded algebra over R which is free as a graded R-module. Using homological perturbation theory techniques, we construct a minimal free multi model for A having properties similar to that…
The notions of pure states and inherent structures, i.e. stable configurations against 1-spin flip are discussed. We explain why these different concepts accidentally coincide in mean-field models with infinite connectivity and present an…
