The Eisenbud-Mazur conjecture states that given an equicharacteristic zero, regular local ring (R,\mathfrak{m}) and a prime ideal P\subset R, we have that P^{(2)}\subseteq mP. In this paper, we computationally prove that the conjecture…

Let $A_1,\ldots,A_s$ be unitary commutative rings which do not have non-trivial idempotents and let $A=A_1\oplus\cdots\oplus A_s$ be their direct sum. We describe all idempotents in the $2\times 2$ matrix ring $M_2(A[[X]])$ over the ring…

Let $(R,P)$ be a commutative, local Noetherian ring, $I$, $J$ ideals, $M$ and $N$ finitely generated $R$-modules. Suppose $J + ann_R M + ann_R N$ is $P$-primary. The main result of this paper is Theorem 6, which gives necessary and…

The Bernstein-Sato polynomial is an important invariant of an element or an ideal in a polynomial ring or power series ring of characteristic zero, with interesting connections to various algebraic and topological aspects of the…

It is proved that a noetherian commutative local ring A containing a field is regular if there is a complex M of free A-modules with the following properties: M_i=0 for i not in [0,dim A]; the homology of M has finite length; H_0(M)…

In \cite{C, LCC}, it is proven that if an element $ab$ in a ring is (generalized) Drazin invertible, then so is $ba$. In this paper, we give a new and short proof of it in an effective manner. In particular, we show that if $ab$ is strongly…

Let R be a ring and let B be a commutative ring. Let p be a homogeneous multiplicative polynomial law of degree n from R to B. We show that p is essentially a determinant, in the sense that p is obtained from a determinant by left and right…

An ideal $I$ of a commutative ring $R$ is said to be of linear type when its Rees algebra and symmetric algebra exhibit isomorphism. In this paper, we investigate the conjecture put forth by Jayanthan, Kumar, and Sarkar (2021) that if $G$…

Let (R,m) be a regular local ring with prime ideals p and q such that p+q is m-primary and dim(R/p)+dim(R/q)=dim(R). It has been conjectured by Kurano and Roberts that p^{(n)} \cap q \subseteq m^{n+1} for all positive integers n. We discuss…

Let $R$ be a finitely generated $\mathbb N$-graded algebra domain over a Noetherian ring and let $I$ be a homogeneous ideal of $R$. Given $P\in Ass(R/I)$ one defines the $v$-invariant $v_P(I)$ of $I$ at $P$ as the least $c\in \mathbb N$…

Let $A,B$ be two rings and let $ X$ be an $ A-$module. An additive map $h: A\to B$ is called n-ring homomorphism if $h(\Pi^n_{i=1}a_i)=\Pi^n_{i=1}h(a_i),$ for all $a_1,a_2, ...,a_n \in {A}$. An additive map $D: A\to X$ is called $n$-ring…

An associative ring $A$ gives rise to the Lie ring $A^{(-)}=(A,[a,b ]=ab-ba)$. The subject of isomorphisms of Lie rings $A^{(-)}$ and $[A,A]$ has attracted considerable attention in the literature. We prove that if the identity element of…

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…

In characteristic zero, Zinovy Reichstein and the author generalized the usual relationship between irreducible Zariski closed subsets of the affine space, their defining ideals, coordinate rings, and function fields, to a non-commutative…

A ring is called a commutator ring if every element is a sum of additive commutators. In this paper we give examples of such rings. In particular, we show that given any ring R, a right R-module N, and a set X, End_R(\bigoplus_X N) and…

We investigate the generalized moment membership problem for matrices, a formulation equivalent to Skolem's problem for linear recurrence sequences. We show decidability for orthogonal, unitary, and real eigenvalue matrices, and…

Let G be a cyclic p-group of order p^n acting by automorphisms on a (non-necessarily commutative) ring R. Suppose there is an element x in R such that (1 + t + ... + t^{p-1})(x) = 1, where t is an element of order p in G. We show how to…

The aim of this article is to solve the system $XA=Y$ where $A=(a_{ij})\in M_{m\times n}(S)$, $Y\in S^{m}$ and $X$ is an unknown vector of size $n$, being $S$ an additively idempotent semiring. If the system has solutions then we completely…

We consider applications of a finitary version of the Affine Representability theorem, which follows from recent work of Belov-Kanel, Rowen, and Vishne. Using this result we are able to show that when given a finite set of polynomial…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. A unit $u$ of $R$ is called exceptional if $1-u$ is also a unit. When $R$ is a finite commutative ring, we determine the additive and multiplicative structures of its exceptional units; and then…
