An integral domain is called {\em Globalized multiplicatively pinched-Dedekind domain $($GMPD domain$)$} if every nonzero non-invertible ideal can be written as $JP_1\cdots P_k$ with $J$ invertible ideal and $P_1,...,P_k$ distinct ideals…

We consider the lattice-ordered groups Inv$(R)$ and Div$(R)$ of invertible and divisorial fractional ideals of a completely integrally closed Pr\"ufer domain. We prove that Div$(R)$ is the completion of the group Inv$(R)$, and we show there…

We give sufficient conditions, in terms of the existence of unbounded derivations satisfying certain properties, which ensure that a II$_1$ factor $M$ is prime or has at most one Cartan subalgebra. For instance, we prove that if there…

In this article, we consider polynomials of the form $f(x)=a_0+a_{n_1}x^{n_1}+a_{n_2}x^{n_2}+\dots+a_{n_r}x^{n_r}\in \mathbb{Z}[x],$ where $|a_0|\ge |a_{n_1}|+\dots+|a_{n_r}|,$ $|a_0|$ is a prime power and $|a_0|\nmid |a_{n_1}a_{n_r}|$. We…

In this paper, we obtain some factorization results on formal power series over principle ideal domains with sharp bounds on number of irreducible factors. These factorization results correspondingly lead to irreducibility criteria for…

We investigate a special class of Pr\"ufer domains, firstly introduced by Dress in 1965. The {\it minimal Dress ring} $D_K$, of a field $K$, is the smallest subring of $K$ that contains every element of the form $1/(1+x^2)$, with $x\in K$.…

We study those integral domains in which every proper ideal can be written as an invertible ideal multiplied by a nonempty product of proper radical ideals.

In this paper we show that if $I$ is an ideal of a commutative semigroup $C$ such that the separator $SepI$ of $I$ is not empty then the factor semigroup $S=C/P_I$ ($P_I$ is the principal congruence on $C$ defined by $I$) satisfies…

An (additive) commutative monoid is called atomic if every given non-invertible element can be written as a sum of atoms (i.e., irreducible elements), in which case, such a sum is called a factorization of the given element. The number of…

We prove an analogue of the classical Bateman-Horn conjecture on prime values of polynomials for the ring of polynomials over a large finite field. Namely, given non-associate, irreducible, separable and monic (in the variable $x$)…

Let $D$ be an integrally closed domain with quotient field $K$ and $A$ a torsion-free $D$-algebra that is finitely generated as a $D$-module and such that $A\cap K=D$. We give a complete classification of those $D$ and $A$ for which the…

We give examples of atomic integral domains satisfying each of the eight logically possible combinations of existence or non-existence of the following kinds of elements: 1) primes, 2) absolutely irreducible elements that are not prime, and…

In this paper, we provide the degree distribution of irreducible factors of the composed polynomial $f(L(x))$ over $\mathbb F_q$, where $f(x)\in \mathbb F_q[x]$ is irreducible and $L(x)\in \mathbb F_q[x]$ is a linearized polynomial. We…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a finite field of odd characteristic. When $|\mathbb{F}|\ge 5$, we prove that every matrix $A$ admits a decomposition into $D+M$ where $D$ is diagonalizable and $M^2=0$. For $\mathbb{F}=\mathbb{F}_3$, we show that such…

We study the non-uniqueness of factorizations of non zero-divisors into atoms (irreducibles) in noncommutative rings. To do so, we extend concepts from the commutative theory of non-unique factorizations to a noncommutative setting. Several…

This paper addresses the factorization of polynomials of the form $F(x) = f_{0}(x) + f_{1}(x) x^{n} + \cdots + f_{r-1}(x) x^{(r-1)n} + f_{r}(x) x^{rn}$ where $r$ is a fixed positive integer and the $f_{j}(x)$ are fixed polynomials in…

We give a precise description of how the class group of a number field measures the failure of unique factorization in its ring of integers. Specifically, following ideas of Kummer, we determine the structure of all irreducible…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q$ elements, $\psi$ a non-zero element of $\mathbb{F}_q$, and $n$ an integer $\geq 3$ prime to $q$. The aim of this article is to show that the zeta function of the projective variety over…

Under the name prime decomposition (pd), a unique decomposition of an arbitrary $N$-dimensional density matrix $\rho$ into a sum of seperable density matrices with dimensions given by the coprime factors of $N$ is introduced. For a class of…
