We prove that every perfect torsion theory for a ring $R$ is differential (in the sense of [P. E. Bland, Differential torsion theory, Journal of Pure and Applied Algebra 204 (2006) 1 -- 8]). In this case, we construct the extension of a…

Let $A$ be a commutative Noetherian ring of characteristic $p>0$, such that $\dim(A)=d$. Let $P$ be a projective $A[T_1,...,T_n]$-module of rank $d$. We show that $P$ is cancellative if and only if $P/<T_1,...,T_n>P$ is cancellative. We…

Suppose X is a projective toric scheme defined over a commutative ring R equipped with an ample line bundle L. We prove that its K-theory has k+1 direct summands K(R) where k is minimal among non-negative integers such that the twisted line…

In 2008, Rogalski and Zhang showed that if R is a strongly noetherian connected graded algebra over an algebraically closed field, then R has a canonical birationally commutative factor. This factor is, up to finite dimension, a twisted…

We present unified $w$-theoretic characterizations of Pr\"ufer $v$-multiplication domains (P$v$MDs). A module-theoretic perspective shows that torsion submodules are $w$-pure, and for $(w$-)$\,$finitely generated modules $M$, the canonical…

Given a commutative Noetherian graded domain $R = \bigoplus_{i\ge 0} R_i$ of dimension $d\geq 2$ with $\dim(R_0) \geq 1$, we prove that any unimodular row of length $d+1$ in $R$ can be completed to the first row of an invertible matrix…

Let R be a subring of the rationals. We want to investigate self splitting R-modules G that is Ext_R(G,G)=0 holds and follow Schultz to call such modules splitters. Free modules and torsion-free cotorsion modules are classical examples for…

Let $(R, \mathfrak{m})$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring with total quotient ring $K$. An $R$-module $M$ is called simple divisible, if $M$ is divisible $\neq 0$, but every proper submodule $0 \neq U \subsetneqq M$ is not divisible.…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring. An $R$-module $M$ is said to be $w$-split if Ext$_{R}^1(M,N)$ is a GV-torsion $R$-module for all $R$-modules $N$. It is known that every projective module is $w$-split, but the converse is not true in general.…

Consider a bounded, strongly pseudoconvex domain $D\subset \mathbb C^n$ with minimal smoothness (namely, the class $C^2$) and let $b$ be a locally integrable function on $D$. We characterize boundedness (resp., compactness) in $L^p(D), p >…

Let n be a positive integer, and let R be a finitely presented (but not necessarily finite dimensional) associative algebra over a computable field. We examine algorithmic tests for deciding (1) if every n-dimensional representation of R is…

Let A be a connected left artinian ring with radical square zero and with n simple modules. If A is not self-injective, then we show that any module M with Ext^i(M,A) = 0 for 1 \le i \le n + 1 is projective. We also determine the structure…

Given any commutative ring $R$, a commutator of two $n\times n$ matrices over $R$ has trace $0$. In this paper, we study the converse: whether every $n \times n$ trace $0$ matrix is a commutator. We show that if $R$ is a B\'{e}zout domain…

Motivated by Hill's criterion of freeness for abelian groups, we investigate conditions under which unions of ascending chains of balanced-projective modules over integral domains are again balanced-projective. Our main result establishes…

Let $A$ be the one point extension of an algebra $B$ by a projective $B$-module. We prove that the extension of a given support $\tau$-tilting $B$-module is a support $\tau$-tilting $A$-module; and, conversely, the restriction of a given…

We prove that any projective Schur algebra over a field $K$ is equivalent in $Br(K)$ to a radical abelian algebra. This was conjectured in 1995 by Sonn and the first author of this paper. As a consequence we obtain a characterization of the…

As a special case of Bass' theory of perfect rings, one obtains the assertion that, over a finite-dimensional associative algebra over a field, all flat modules are projective. In this paper we prove the following relative version of this…

Let G be a complex connected reductive group. The PRV conjecture, which was proved independently by S. Kumar and O. Mathieu in 1989, gives explicit irreducible submodules of the tensor product of two irreducible G-modules. This paper has…

We find conditions under which the restriction of a divergence-free vector field $B$ to an invariant toroidal surface $S$ is linearisable. The main results are similar in conclusion to Arnold's Structure Theorems but require weaker…

Assume that A is a unital separable simple C*-algebra with real rank zero, stable rank one, strict comparison of projections, and that its tracial simplex T(A) has a finite number of extremal points. We prove that every self-adjoint element…
