Let $A, B$ be invertible, non-commuting elements of a ring $R$. Suppose that $A-1$ is also invertible and that the equation $$[B,(A-1)(A,B)]=0$$ called the fundamental equation is satisfied. Then an invariant $R$-module is defined for any…
We unify the Kumjian-Renault Weyl groupoid construction with the Lawson-Lenz version of Exel's tight groupoid construction. We do this by utilising only a weak algebraic fragment of the C*-algebra structure, namely its *-semigroup reduct.…
Motivated by questions from Ehrhart theory, we present new results on discrete equidecomposability. Two rational polygons $P$ and $Q$ are said to be discretely equidecomposable if there exists a piecewise affine-unimodular bijection…
Kirchberg's Embedding Problem (KEP) asks whether every separable C$^*$ algebra embeds into an ultrapower of the Cuntz algebra $\mathcal{O}_2$. In this paper, we use model theory to show that this conjecture is equivalent to a local…
We reconsider a classical theorem by Bican and El Bashir, which guarantees the existence of non-trivial relatively pure submodules in a module category over a ring with unit. Our aim is to generalize the theorem to module categories over…
T. Dupuy, E. Katz, J. Rabinoff, D. Zureick-Brown introduced the module of total $p$-differentials for a ring over $Z/p^2Z$. We study the same construction for a ring over $Z_{(p)}$ and prove a regularity criterion. For a local ring, the…
We investigate the so-called {\it $UJ^{\#}$ rings}, a new type of rings in which every unit can be written as $1+j$ with $j\in J^{\#}(R)$. These rings were defined and studied by Saini-Udar in Czechoslovak Math. J. (2025) under the name…
We introduce the concept of a weak nil clean ring, a generalization of nil clean ring, which is nothing but a ring with unity in which every element can be expressed as sum or difference of a nilpotent and an idempotent. Further if the…
The theory of bisets has been very useful in progress towards settling the longstanding question of determining units for the Burnside ring. In 2006 Bouc used bisets to settle the question for $p$-groups. In this paper, we provide a…
We define united KK-theory for real C*-algebras A and B such that A is separable and B is sigma-unital, extending united K-theory in the sense that KK\crt(\R, B) = K\crt(B). United KK-theory contains real, complex, and self-conjugate…
We interpret a counterexample to Hilbert's 14th problem by S. Kuroda geometrically in two ways: As ring of regular functions on a smooth rational quasiprojective variety over any field K of characteristic 0, and, in the special case where K…
It was pointed out in my last paper that there are rings whose real closure * are not unique. In [4] we also discussed some example of rings by which there is a unique real closure * (mainly the real closed rings). Now we want to determine…
We exemplify the way the rigged Hilbert space deals with the Lippmann-Schwinger equation by way of the spherical shell potential. We explicitly construct the Lippmann-Schwinger bras and kets along with their energy representation, their…
Realizing the possibility suggested by Hardouin [6], we show that her own Picard-Vessiot Theory for iterative $q$-difference rings is covered by the (consequently, more general) framework, settled by Amano and Masuoka [2], of artinian…
Armendariz and semicommutative rings are generalizations of reduced rings. In \cite{IN}, I.N. Herstein introduced the notion of a hypercenter of a ring to generalize the center subclass. For a ring $R$, an element $a \in R$ is called…
We consider quantum group representations for a semisimple algebraic group G at a complex root of unity q. Here q is allowed to be of any order. We revisit some fundamental results of Parshall-Wang and Andersen-Polo-Wen from the 90's. In…
The recently introduced CP*-construction unites quantum channels and classical systems, subsuming the earlier CPM-construction in categorical quantum mechanics. We compare this construction to two earlier attempts at solving this problem:…
We consider Hilbert's tenth problem for two families of noncommutative rings. Let $K$ be a field of characteristic $p$. We start by showing that Hilbert's tenth problem has a negative answer over the twisted polynomial ring $K\{\tau\}$ and…
We consider the problem of preserving weighted Riemannian metrics of positive Bakry-\'Emery Ricci curvature along surgery. We establish two theorems of this type: One for connected sums, and one for surgeries along higher-dimensional…
{Generalizing the notion of nil cleanness from \cite{D13}, in parallel to \cite{DM14}, we define the concept of {\it weak nil cleanness} for an arbitrary ring. Its comprehensive study in different ways is provided as well. A decomposition…
