We investigate properties of zeta functions of polynomial rings and their quotients, generalizing and extending some classical results about Dedekind zeta functions of number fields. By an application of Delange's version of the Ikehara…
In general the endomorphisms of a non-abelian group do not form a ring under the operations of addition and composition of functions. Several papers have dealt with the ring of functions defined on a group which are endomorphisms when…
In the recent paper "The Nakayama functor and its completion for Gorenstein algebras", a class of Gorenstein algebras over commutative noetherian rings was introduced, and duality theorems for various categories of representations were…
We produce a fully faithful functor from finite type nilpotent spaces to cosimplicial binomial rings, thus giving an algebraic model of integral homotopy types. As an application, we construct an integral version of the…
We consider a circle of ideas involving differential algebra, local Noetherian rings, and their generic formal fibers. Connecting these ideas gives rise to what we term a "twisted" subring $R$ of a ring $S$. Each such subring $R$ arises as…
In this work the authors use their contour integral method to derive a double integral connected to the modified Bessel function of the second kind and express it in terms of the Lerch function. There are some useful results relating double…
We develop a formal group--theoretic framework for the Riemann zeta function by treating its Euler product as an element of the multiplicative formal group $\widehat{\mathbb{G}}_m$ and its logarithm as the associated formal group logarithm.…
The second author has recently introduced a new class of L-series in the arithmetic theory of function fields over finite fields. We show that the value at one of these L-series encode arithmetic informations of certain Drinfeld modules…
A ring with effects (e-ring) is a generalization of the ring of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space and the subsystem of effect operators (positive Hermitian operators dominated by the identity operator). The POV-measures…
Recent work applying higher gauge theory to the superstring has indicated the presence of `higher symmetry'. Infinitesimally, this is realized by a `Lie 2-superalgebra' extending the Poincare superalgebra in precisely the dimensions where…
We address two variants of the classical necklace counting problem from enumerative combinatorics. In both cases, we fix a finite group $\mathcal{G}$ and a positive integer $n$. In the first variant, we count the ``identity-product…
We study the ring of arithmetical functions with unitary convolution, giving an isomorphism to a generalized power series ring on infinitely many variables, similar to the isomorphism of Cashwell-Everett between the ring of arithmetical…
Given commutative, unital rings $A$ and $B$ with a ring homomorphism $A\to B$ making $B$ free of finite rank as an $A$-module, we can ask for a "trace" or "norm" homomorphism taking algebraic data over $B$ to algebraic data over $A$. In…
We generalise notions of Gorenstein homological algebra for rings to the context of arbitrary abelian categories. The results are strongest for module categories of rngs with enough idempotents. We also reformulate the notion of Frobenius…
We prove several results showing that the algebraic $K$-theory of valuation rings behave as though such rings were regular Noetherian, in particular an analogue of the Geisser--Levine theorem. We also give some new proofs of known results…
We present a new algorithm to compute the integral closure of a reduced Noetherian ring in its total ring of fractions. A modification, applicable in positive characteristic, where actually all computations are over the original ring, is…
In this presentation we shall deal with some aspects of the theory of Hilbert functions of modules over local rings, and we intend to guide the reader along one of the possible routes through the last three decades of progress in this area…
We study Poincar\'e series associated to a finite collection of divisors on i. a finite graph and ii. a certain family of metric graphs called chain of loops. Our main results are proofs of rationality of the Poincar\'e series and…
Let $R$ be a ring, let $G$ be an amenable group and let $R\ast G$ be a crossed product. The goal of this paper is to construct, starting with a suitable additive function $L$ on the category of left modules over $R$, an additive function on…
We generalize the constructions of [17,19] to layered semirings, in order to enrich the structure and provide finite examples for applications in arithmetic (including finite examples). The layered category theory of [19] is extended…
