Let $X$ be an $n$-dimensional variety over a field $k$ of characteristic zero, regular in codimension 1 with singular locus $Z$. In this paper we study the negative $K$-theory of $X$, showing that when $Z$ is sufficiently nice, $K_{1-n}(X)$…

We investigate the complexity of deciding, given a multiplication table representing a semigroup S, a subset X of S and an element t of S, whether t can be expressed as a product of elements of X. It is well-known that this problem is…

In this article, we study the relative negative K-groups $K_{-n}(f)$ of a map $f: X \to S $ of schemes. We prove a relative version of the Weibel conjecture i.e. if $f: X \to S$ is a smooth affine map of noetherian schemes with $\dim S=d$…

Using the Baum-Connes conjecture with coefficients, we develop a K-theory formula for reduced C*-algebras of strongly $0$-$E$-unitary inverse semigroups, or equivalently, for certain reduced partial crossed products. In the case of…

We compare the K-theory and K-homology of the well known CAR algebra. While the $K_0$ group is infinitely generated, we shows that it pairs identically to zero with even Fredholm modules over the algebra. We show further that in fact the…

Let A be a nonassociative algebra such that the associator (A,A^2,A) vanishes. If A is freely generated by an element f, there are commuting derivations delta_n, n=1,2,..., such that delta_n(f) is a nonlinear homogeneous polynomial in f of…

We propose a definition by generators and relations of the rank $n-2$ Askey-Wilson algebra $\mathfrak{aw}(n)$ for any integer $n$, generalising the known presentation for the usual case $n=3$. The generators are indexed by connected subsets…

We generalize several comparison results between algebraic, semi-topological and topological K-theories to the equivariant case with respect to a finite group.

Given a semigroup $S$ and an $n$-partition $\mathcal{P}$ of $S$, $n\in \mathbb{N}$, do there exist $A\in \mathcal{P}$ and a subset $F$ of $S$ such that $S=F ^{-1} \{x \in S: x A \bigcap A\neq\emptyset\}$ and $|F |\leq n$? We give an…

Let $\mathbb{K}$ be an algebraically closed field, and $A \subset \mathbb{K}[x_{1}, \ldots, x_n]$ be a subalgebra of finite codimension. It is known that there exists a (not necessarily unique) finite filtration of $\mathbb{K}$-algebras \[…

Given a semigroup $S$ generated by its squares, we determine the complex-valued solutions of the following system of cosine-sine functional equations \begin{align*} f(xy)=f(x)g_{1}(y)+g_{1}(x)f(y)+\lambda_{1}^{2}\,h(x)h(y),\; x,y\in S,\\…

Let $X_n = \{1,2,\dots,n\}$ be a finite set $(n\geq 2)$ and $T_n$ the full transformation semigroup on $X_n$. For a positive integer $l\leq n-1$, we define $$T_n(l) = \{\alpha\in T_n \colon \forall x,y\in X_n,\, |x-y| = l \;\Rightarrow\;…

Let $f\_1,\ldots, f\_s$ be formal power series (respectively polynomials) in thevariable $x$. We study the semigroup of orders of the formal series inthe algebra $K[[ f1,\ldots, f\_s]] \subseteq K[[ x ]]$ (respectively the semigroup of…

A field $K$ is quasi-classical $d$-local if there exist fields $K=k_d,\dots,k_0$ with $k_{i+1}$ Henselian admissible discretely valued with residue field $k_i$, and $k_0$ quasi-finite. We prove a duality theorem for the Galois cohomology of…

We show that the following group constructions preserve the semilinearity of the solution sets for knapsack equations (equations of the form $g_1^{x_1} \cdots g_k^{x_k} = g$ in a group $G$, where the variables $x_1, \ldots, x_k$ take values…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, let K/k be a transcendental extension of arbitrary transcendence degree and let G be a multiplicative subgroup of (K^*)^n such that (k^*)^n is contained in G, and G/(k^*)^n has…

We prove a sufficient condition under which a semigroup admits no finite identity basis. As an application, it is shown that the identities of the Kauffman monoid $\mathcal{K}_n$ are nonfinitely based for each $n\ge 3$. This result holds…

We consider some second order quasilinear partial differential inequalities for real valued functions on the unit ball and find conditions under which there is a lower bound for the supremum of nonnegative solutions that do not vanish at…
