Over an algebraically closed base field $k$ of characteristic 2, the ring $R^G$ of invariants is studied, $G$ being the orthogonal group O(n) or the special orthogonal group SO(n) and acting naturally on the coordinate ring $R$ of the…

H. Fujimoto showed that for a complete minimal surface in $\mathbb{R}^m$, if the Gauss map is non-degenerate, then it omits at most $\frac{m(m + 1)}{2}$ hyperplanes in the complex projective space $\mathbb{P}^{m - 1}$ in general position,…

For any primitive matrix $M\in\mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$ with positive diagonal entries, we prove the existence and uniqueness of a positive vector $\mathbf{x}=(x_1,\dots,x_n)^t$ such that $M\mathbf{x}=(\frac{1}{x_1},\dots,\frac{1}{x_n})^t$.…

Let $m\geq 2$ be a positive integer. Given a set $E(\omega )\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ we define $r_{N}^{(m)}(\omega )$ to be the number of ways to represent $N\in \mathbb{Z}$ as any combination of sums $\textit{ and }$ differences of $m$…

A real arithmetic function f is multiplicatively monotonous if f (mn) -- f (m) has constant sign for m, n positive integers. Properties and examples of such functions are discussed, with applications to positive hermitian…

We study algebras generated by positive matrices, i.e., matrices with nonnegative entries. Some of our results hold in more general setting of vector lattices. We reprove and extend some theorems that have been recently shown by Kandi\'{c}…

We prove that if $A_1, A_2, \dots, A_n$ are tracial abelian von Neumann algebras for $2\leq n \leq \infty$ and $M = A_1 * \cdots * A_n$ is their free product, then any subalgebra $A \subset M$ of the form $A = \sum_{i=1}^n u_i A_i p_i…

In this article, we give a family of examples of algebras, showing that for every $n \geq 2$ and $m \geq 0$, there is an algebra displaying a path of n irreducible morphisms between indecomposable modules whose composite lies in the…

Let $H_n$ be the $n$-th harmonic number and let $v_n$ be its denominator. It is well known that $v_n$ is even for every integer $n\ge 2$. In this paper, we study the properties of $v_n$. One of our results is: the set of positive integers…

We prove that if $B$ is a set of $N$ positive integers such that $B\cdot B$ contains an arithmetic progression of length $M$, then for some absolute $C > 0$, $$ \pi(M) + C \frac {M^{2/3}}{\log^2 M} \leq N, $$ where $\pi$ is the prime…

Given two tensor fields of type (1,1) on a smooth n-dimensional manifold M, such that all their Fr\"olicher-Nijenhuis brackets vanish, the algebra of differential forms on M becomes a bi-differential graded algebra. As a consequence, there…

Consider two non-degenerate algebras B and C over the complex numbers. We study a certain class of idempotent elements E in the multiplier algebra of the tensor product of B with C, called separability idempotents. The conditions include…

For a given positive integers $m$ and $\ell$, we give a complete list of positive integers $n$ for which their exist $m$th roots of unity $x_1,\dots,x_n \in \mathbb{C}$ such that $x_1^{\ell} + \cdots + x_n^{\ell}=0$. This extends the…

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a semifinite von Neumann algebra equipped with an increasing filtration $(\mathcal{M}_n)_{n\geq 1}$ of (semifinite) von Neumann subalgebras of $\mathcal{M}$. For $1\leq p \leq\infty$, let $\mathcal{H}_p^c(\mathcal{M})$…

Let ${\cal A}=\{A_1,\ldots, A_r\}$ be a partition of a set $\{1,\ldots,m\}\times\{1,\ldots, n\}$ into $r$ nonempty subsets, and $A=(a_{ij})$ be an $m\times n$ matrix. We say that $A$ has a pattern ${\cal A}$ provided that $a_{ij}=a_{i'j'}$…

Let $\big(M,g^{TM}\big)$ be a noncompact complete spin Riemannian manifold of even dimension $n$, with $k^{TM}$ denote the associated scalar curvature. Let $f\colon M\rightarrow S^{n}(1)$ be a smooth area decreasing map, which is locally…

Let $B$ be a $p$-block of a finite group, and set $m=$ $\sum \chi(1)^2$, the sum taken over all height zero characters of $B$. Motivated by a result of M. Isaacs characterising $p$-nilpotent finite groups in terms of character degrees, we…

Suppose that $G$ is a finite group and $k$ is a field of characteristic $p>0$. We consider the complete cohomology ring $\mathcal{E}_M^* = \sum_{n \in \mathbb{Z}} \widehat{Ext}^n_{kG}(M,M)$. We show that the ring has two distinguished…

Let $M$ be a $d\times d$ contracting matrix. In this paper we consider the self-affine iterated function system $\{Mv-u, Mv+u\}$, where $u$ is a cyclic vector. Our main result is as follows: if $|\det M|\ge 2^{-1/d}$, then the attractor…

Recognizing when a ring is a complete matrix ring is of significant importance in algebra. It is well-known folklore that a ring $R$ is a complete $n\times n$ matrix ring, so $R\cong M_{n}(S)$ for some ring $S$, if and only if it contains a…
