Building over recent results, we expand the basic theory of algebraic extensions to the realm of superfields -a field with multivalued sum and product-, showing that every superfield has a (unique up to isomorphism) strong algebraic…

We classify extensions of certain classifiable C*-algebras using the six term exact sequence in K-theory together with the positive cone of the K_0-groups of the distinguished ideal and quotient. We then apply our results to a class of…

We show that under some natural ergodicity assumptions extensions given by Rokhlin cocycles lift the multiplier property if the associated locally compact group extension has only countably many L^\infty-eigenvalues. We make use of some…

Let (R,m) be a commutative Noetherian local ring. It is known that R is Cohen-Macaulay if there exists either a nonzero finitely generated R-module of finite injective dimension or a nonzero Cohen-Macaulay R-module of finite projective…

We extend a result by Huneke and Watanabe bounding the multiplicity of $F$-pure local rings of prime characteristic in terms of their dimension and embedding dimensions to the case of $F$-injective, generalized Cohen-Macaulay rings. We then…

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…

We describe a ring whose category of Cohen-Macaulay modules provides an additive categorification of the cluster algebra structure on the homogeneous coordinate ring of the Grassmannian of k-planes in n-space. More precisely, there is a…

We introduce and study a new class of differential fields in positive characteristic. We call them separably differentially closed fields and demonstrate that they are the differential analogue of separably closed fields. We prove several…

Let I be a divisorial ideal of a strongly F-regular ring R. Watanabe asked if the symbolic Rees algebra R_s(I) is Cohen-Macaulay whenever it is Noetherian. We develop the notion of multi-symbolic Rees algebras, and use this to show that…

We investigate when the categories of all rational $A$-modules and of finite dimensional rational modules are closed under extensions inside the category of $C^*$-modules, where $C^*$ is the cofinite topological completion of $A$. We give a…

For a one dimensional analytically unramified Cohen-Macaulay local ring $R$, the blowup algebra of the canonical ideal is a module finite birational extension. The conductor of this extension always contains the conductor of $R$. We study…

We propose the extension of the complex numbers to be the new domain where new concepts, like negative and imaginary probabilities, can be defined. The unit of the new space is defined as the solution of the unsolvable equation in the…

Tight closure test ideals have been central to the classification of singularities in rings of characteristic $p>0$, and via reduction to characteristic $p$, in equal characteristic zero as well. A summary of their properties and…

Let R be a commutative Noetherian local ring. We show that R is Gorenstein if and only if every finitely generated R-module can be embedded in a finitely generated R-module of finite projective dimension. This extends a result of Auslander…

Let $K$ be a local field with residue characteristic $p$ and let $L/K$ be a totally ramified extension of degree $p^k$. In this paper we show that if $L/K$ has only two distinct indices of inseparability then there exists a uniformizer…

We extend a reciprocity theorem of Stanley about enumeration of integer points in polyhedral cones when one exchanges strict and weak inequalities. The proof highlights the roles played by Cohen-Macaulayness and canonical modules. The…

Geoffrey Dietz introduced a set of axioms for a closure operation on a complete local domain R so that the existence of such a closure operation is equivalent to the existence of a big Cohen-Macaulay module. These closure operations are…

Over a Cohen-Macaulay ring we consider two extensions of the maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules from the viewpoint of definable subcategories, which are closed under direct limits, direct products and pure submodules. After describing these…

Let $M$ be a finite module over a commutative noetherian ring $R$. For ideals $\fa$ and $\fb$ of $R$, the relations between cohomological dimensions of $M$ with respect to $\fa, \fb$, $\fa\cap\fb$ and $\fa+ \fb$ are studied. When $R$ is…

Over a Cohen-Macaulay (CM) local ring, we characterize those modules that can be obtained as a direct limit of finitely generated maximal CM modules. We point out two consequences of this characterization: (1) Every balanced big CM module,…
