Let $S$ be a unital ring, $S[t;\sigma,\delta]$ a skew polynomial ring where $\sigma$ is an injective endomorphism and $\delta$ a left $\sigma$-derivation, and suppose $f\in S[t;\sigma,\delta]$ has degree $m$ and an invertible leading…

Let $S$ be a domain and $R=S[t;\sigma,\delta]$ a skew polynomial ring, where $\sigma$ is an injective endomorphism of $S$ and $\delta$ a left $\sigma$ -derivation. We give criteria for skew polynomials $f\in R$ of degree less or equal to…

Let $S$ be a unital associative ring and $S[t;\sigma,\delta]$ be a skew polynomial ring, where $\sigma$ is an injective endomorphism of $S$ and $\delta$ a left $\sigma$-derivation. For each $f\in S[t;\sigma,\delta]$ of degree $m>1$ with a…

Let $D$ be division algebra over its center $C$, let $\sigma$ be an endormorphism of $D$, let $\delta$ be a left $\sigma$-derivation of $D$, and let $R=D[t;\sigma,\delta]$ be a skew polynomial ring. We study the structure of a class of…

In this thesis, we study the properties of a nonassociative algebra construction from skew polynomial rings. This construction was introduced by Petit in the 1960s but largely ignored until recently. In particular, the automorphism groups…

Given a finite group $ G $, we study certain regular subgroups of the group of permutations of $ G $, which occur in the classification theories of two types of algebraic objects: skew left braces with multiplicative group isomorphic to $ G…

We describe relations between maximal subfields in a division ring and in its rational extensions. More precisely, we prove that properties such as being Galois or purely inseparable over the centre generically carry over from one to…

Let $K$ be a field and $\sigma$ an automorphism of $K$ of order $n$.Employing a nonassociative algebra, we study the eigenspace of a bounded skew polynomial $f\in K[t;\sigma]$. We mainly treat the case that $K/F$ is a cyclic field extension…

Let $ L/K $ be a finite separable extension of fields whose Galois closure $ E/K $ has group $ G $. Greither and Pareigis have used Galois descent to show that a Hopf algebra giving a Hopf-Galois structure on $ L/K $ has the form $ E[N]^{G}…

A conjecture of Amitsur states that two Severi-Brauer varieties are birationally isomorphic if and only if the underlying algebras are the same degree and generate the same cyclic subgroup of the Brauer group. It is known that generating…

For a field $K$, and a root $\alpha$ of an irreducible polynomial over $K$ (in some algebraic closure) the number of roots of $f(x)$ lying in $K(\alpha)$ is studied here. Given such an $f(x)$ of degree $n$ for which $r$ of the roots are i n…

We classify all division algebras that are principal Albert isotopes of a cyclic Galois field extension of degree $n>2$ up to isomorphisms. We achieve a ``tight'' classification when the cyclic Galois field extension is cubic. The…

Let $f$ be an irreducible polynomial of prime degree $p\geq 5$ over $\QQ$, with precisely $k$ pairs of complex roots. Using a result of Jens H\"{o}chsmann (1999), we show that if $p\geq 4k+1$ then $\Gal(f/\QQ)$ is isomorphic to $A_{p}$ or…

A skew polynomial ring $R=K[x;\sigma,\delta]$ is a ring of polynomials with non-commutative multiplication. This creates a difference between left and right divisibility, and thus a concept of left and right evaluations and roots. A…

Employing isomorphisms between their ambient rings, we propose new definitions of equivalence and isometry for skew polycyclic codes that will lead to tighter classifications than existing ones. This reduces the number of previously known…

When monic integral polynomials of degree $n \geq 2$ are ordered by the maximum of the absolute value of their coefficients, the Hilbert irreducibility theorem implies that asymptotically 100% are irreducible and have Galois group…

Let $\sigma$ be an automorphism of a field $K$ with fixed field $F$. We study the automorphisms of nonassociative unital algebras which are canonical generalizations of the associative quotient algebras $K[t;\sigma]/fK[t;\sigma]$ obtained…

A monic polynomial $f(x)\in {\mathbb Z}[x]$ of degree $N$ is called monogenic if $f(x)$ is irreducible over ${\mathbb Q}$ and $\{1,\theta,\theta^2,\ldots ,\theta^{N-1}\}$ is a basis for the ring of integers of ${\mathbb Q}(\theta)$, where…

Let G denote a closed, connected, self adjoint, noncompact subgroup of GL(n,R), and let d_{R} denote the canonical right invariant Riemannian metric on G. For v in R^{n} let G_{v} = {g in G : g(v) = v}. We obtain algebraically defined upper…

For an algebraically closed field K, let G be a finite abelian group of K-linear automorphisms of a finite-dimensional path algebra KQ of a quiver Q. Under certain assumptions on the action of G, we show the existence of a certain kind of…
