We prove a coordinatization theorem for unital alternative algebras containing 2 x 2 matrix algebra with the same identity element 1. This solves an old problem announced by Nathan Jacobson on the description of alternative algebras…

It is well-known that the Jacobson radical of a unital ring is its largest superfluous right ideal. It is recorded here that the result carries over to non-unital rings provided the notion of "superfluous" is taken relative to all regular…

Let $N$ be a positive integer, $\mathbb{A}$ be a subset of $\mathbb{Q}$ and $\alpha=\dfrac{\alpha_{1}}{\alpha_{2}}\in \mathbb{A}\setminus \{0,N\}$. $N$ is called an $\alpha$-Korselt number (equivalently $\alpha$ is said an $N$-Korselt base)…

We prove that if $k$ and $\ell$ are sufficiently large, then all the zeros of the weight $k+\ell$ cusp form $E_k(z) E_{\ell}(z) - E_{k+\ell}(z)$ in the standard fundamental domain lie on the boundary. We moreover find formulas for the…

In this work we prove the real Nullstellensatz for the ring ${\mathcal O}(X)$ of analytic functions on a $C$-analytic set $X\subset{\mathbb R}^n$ in terms of the saturation of \L ojasiewicz's radical in ${\mathcal O}(X)$: The ideal…

We consider the generalized Jacobian $\widetilde{J}$ of the modular curve $X_0(N)$ of level $N$ with respect to a reduced divisor consisting of all cusps. Supposing $N$ is square free, we explicitly determine the structure of the…

Diophantine subsets of $\mathbb{Z}$ play a key role in the negative answer to Hilbert's tenth problem. The definition of diophantine set generalizes in several ways to other commutative rings. We compare these definitions. Along the way, we…

A ring $R$ is called a J-regular ring if R/J(R) is von Neumann regular, where J(R) is the Jacobson radical of R. It is proved that if R is J-regular, then (i) R is right n-injective if and only if every homomorphism from an $n$-generated…

If a symmetric multilinear algebra is weakly nil, then it is Engel. This result may be regarded as an infinite-dimensional analogue of the well-known Jacobian theorem, which states that if a polynomial mapping has a polynomial inverse, then…

We generalize several inequalities involving powers of the numerical radius for product of two operators acting on a Hilbert space. For any $A, B, X\in \mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$ such that $A,B$ are positive, we establish some numerical…

Let $\Theta$ be a symmetric theta divisor on an indecomposable principally polarized complex abelian variety $X$. The linear system $|2\Theta |$ defines a morphism $K:X\ra |2\Theta |^*$, whose image is the Kummer variety $K(X)$ of $X$. When…

An element a in A_n, the Cayley-Dickson algebra is alternative if (a,a,x)=0 for all x. In this paper we characterise such elements for n>3.To do so,we prove first the so called Yui's conjecture:For a and b pure elements in A_n. If (a,x,b)=0…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. In this paper, we introduce the concept of quasi $J$-ideal which is a generalization of $J$-ideal. A proper ideal of $R$ is called a quasi $J$-ideal if its radical is a $J$-ideal. Many…

We present a new approach to noncommutative real algebraic geometry based on the representation theory of $C^\ast$-algebras. An important result in commutative real algebraic geometry is Jacobi's representation theorem for archimedean…

We use George Bergman's recent normal form for universally adjoining an inner inverse to show that, for general rings, a nilpotent regular element $x$ need not be unit-regular. This contrasts sharply with the situation for nilpotent regular…

We introduce higher-order (or multibracket) simple Lie algebras that generalize the ordinary Lie algebras. Their `structure constants' are given by Lie algebra cohomology cocycles which, by virtue of being such, satisfy a suitable…

In this paper we generalize the theorem of Ein-Lazarsfeld-Smith (concerning the behavior of symbolic powers of prime ideals in regular rings finitely generated over a field of characteristic 0) to arbitrary regular rings containing a field.…

Let $R_\alpha$ be an irrational rotation of the circle, and code the orbit of any point $x$ by whether $R_\alpha^i(x)$ belongs to $[0,\alpha)$ or $[\alpha,1)$ -- this produces a Sturmian sequence. A point is undetermined at step $j$ if its…

We derive an integral representation for the Jacobi-Poisson kernel valid for all admissible type parameters $\alpha,\beta$ in the context of Jacobi expansions. This enables us to develop a technique for proving standard estimates in the…

Let $k \leq n$ be nonnegative integers and let $\lambda$ be a partition of $k$. S. Griffin recently introduced a quotient $R_{n,\lambda}$ of the polynomial ring $\mathbb{Q}[x_1, \dots, x_n]$ in $n$ variables which simultaneously generalizes…
