Let $D$ be a finitely generated abelian group and $S$ a $D$-graded ring. We introduce a geometric semistability condition for points $x \in \Spec(S)$, characterized by maximal-dimensional orbit cones $\sigma(x)$. This set of geometrically…

We define the rank of elements of general unital rings, discuss its properties and give several examples to support the definition. In semiprime rings we give a characterization of rank in terms of invertible elements. As an application we…

A polynomial with rational coefficients is said to be pure with respect to a rational prime $p$ if its Newton polygon has one slope. In this article, we prove that the number of irreducible factors of the $n$-th iterate of a pure polynomial…

We propose a variant of the Chvatal-Gomory procedure that will produce a sufficient set of facet normals for the integer hulls of all polyhedra {xx : Ax <= b} as b varies. The number of steps needed is called the small Chvatal rank (SCR) of…

Let $A$ be a simple C*-algebra of stable rank one and let $p$ and $q$ be two $\sigma$-compact open projections. It is proved that there is a continuous path of unitaries in ${\tilde A}$ which connects open sub-projections of $p$ which is…

Given a trivially graded polynomial ring $A=K[a_1,\dots,a_m]$ over a field $K$ and a positively graded polynomial ring $P=A[x_1,\dots,x_k]$, we study graded rings $R=P/I$, where $I$ is a homogeneous ideal in $P$ such that $I\cap A = \{0\}$.…

Let $A$ be a simple separable exact $C^*$-algebra that has traces. We show the following existed regularity properties are equivalent: \quad(1) $l^\infty(A)/J_A$ has real rank zero, where $J_A$ is the trace kernel ideal. \quad(2) $A$ is…

We show that if the rotation set of a homeomorphism of the torus is stable under small perturbations of the dynamics, then it is a convex polygon with rational vertices. We also show that such homeomorphisms are $C^0$-generic and have…

A ring is clean (resp. almost clean) if each of its elements is the sum of a unit (resp. regular element) and an idempotent. In this paper we define the analogous notion for *-rings: a *-ring is *-clean (resp. almost *-clean) if its every…

In the spirit of Fakhruddin (arXiv:math/0212208v1) and Szpiro-Bhatnagar (arXiv:1010.2715v1), we show that for an equicharacteristic complete local ring A, with a given embedding of Spec(A) in the prime spectrum Spec(R) of some complete…

As the first main result of this article, we prove that if $e$ and $e'$ are idempotents of a commutative ring $A$, then there is a canonical isomorphism of $A$-modules: $$Ae\oplus Ae'\simeq Ae/Ae(1-e')\oplus Ae'/Ae'(1-e)\oplus…

We study clean group rings and also the group rings whose every element is a sum of two units. We also prove that if R is an Abelian exchange ring and G is a locally finite group, then the group ring RG has stable range one.

We show that for any finite $p$-group $P$ of rank at least 2 and any algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p$ the graded center $Z^*(\modbar(kP))$ of the stable module category of finite-dimensional $kP$-modules has infinite…

We prove that if G is the circle group or a profinite group, then the all of the homotopical information of the category of rational G-spectra is captured by triangulated structure of the rational G-equivariant stable homotopy category.…

In this paper we prove that two idempotent rings are Morita equivalent if every corner of one of them is isomorphic to a corner of a matrix ring of the other one. We establish the converse (which is not true in general) for $\sigma$-unital…

We approach a problem of realising algebraic objects in a certain universal equivariant stable homotopy theory; the global homotopy theory of Schwede. Specifically, for a global ring spectrum $R$, we consider which classes of ring…

If $R$ is a regular and semiartinian ring, it is proved that the following conditions are equivalent: (1) $R$ is unit-regular, (2) every factor ring of $R$ is directly finite, (3) the abelian group $K_0(R)$ is free and admits a basis which…

It is proved that given any prime ideal $\mathfrak{p}$ of height at least 2 in a countable commutative noetherian ring $A$, there are uncountably many more dualizable objects in the $\mathfrak{p}$-local $\mathfrak{p}$-torsion stratum of the…

For a countable, complete, first-order theory $T$, we study $At$, the class of atomic models of $T$. We develop an analogue of $U$-rank and prove two results. On one hand, if some tp(d/a) is not ranked, then there are $2^{\aleph_1}$…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve with positive rank over a number field $K$ and let $p$ be an odd prime number. Let $K_{cyc}$ be the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of $K$ and $K_n$ denote its $n$-th layer. The Mordell--Weil rank of $E$ is…
