Let $A$ be a right noetherian algebra over a field $k$. If the base field extension $A \otimes_k K$ remains right noetherian for all extension fields $K$ of $k$, then $A$ is called stably right noetherian over $k$. We develop an inductive…

In this paper we introduce the concept of purely infinite rings, which in the simple case agrees with the already existing notion of pure infiniteness. We establish various permanence properties of this notion, with respect to passage to…

Just infinite algebras have been considered from various perspectives; a common thread in these treatments is that the notion of just infinite is an extension of the notion of simple. We reinforce this generalization by considering some…

String algebras, in the usual sense, are finite-dimensional algebras over a given ground field. We recall a generalisation of the definition of a string algebra, which was introduced in a previous paper of the author. This generalisation…

A group is said to be stable if it is isomorphic to its automorphism group. We investigate how we can extend centerless groups to construct finite stable groups with nontrivial centers. To this end, we classify all finite stable groups…

We study the problem of existence of pushouts in the category of algebraic sets over an infinite field. This problem can be reduced to asking whether the property of being a finitely generated algebra over a field, or a Noetherian ring in…

We develop a general ring theory in the o-minimal setting culminating in a description of all the definable rings in an arbitrary o-minimal structure. We show that every definably connected ring with non-trivial multiplication defines an…

Replacing invertibility with quasi-invertibility in Bass' first stable range condition we discover a new class of rings, the QB-rings. These constitute a considerable enlargement of the class of rings with stable rank one (B-rings), and…

We extend the classical notion of standardly stratified $k$-algebra (stated for finite dimensional $k$-algebras) to the more general class of rings, possibly without $1,$ with enough idempotents. We show that many of the fundamental…

We study the link between stably finiteness and stably projectionless-ness for $C^*$-algebras of solvable Lie groups. We show that these two properties are equivalent if the dimension of the group is not divisible by $4$; otherwise, they…

We uncover a connection between the model-theoretic notion of superstability and that of noetherian rings and pure-semisimple rings. We characterize noetherian rings via superstability of the class of left modules with embeddings.…

A monoid $M$ is said to be surjunctive if every injective cellular automaton with finite alphabet over $M$ is surjective. We show that monoid algebras of surjunctive monoids are stably finite. In other words, given any field $K$ and any…

We investigate the behavior of finitely generated projective modules over a down-up algebra. Specifically, we show that every noetherian down-up algebra $A(\alpha,\beta,\gamma)$ has a non-free, stably free right ideal. Further, we compute…

Regular groups and fields are common generalizations of minimal and quasi-minimal groups and fields, so the conjectures that minimal or quasi-minimal fields are algebraically closed have their common generalization to the conjecture that…

Two extension problems are solved. First, the class of locally matricial algebras over an arbitrary field is closed under extensions. Second, the class of locally finite dimensional semisimple algebras over a fixed field is closed under…

We define a stably free ideal domain to be a Noetherian domain whose left and right ideals ideals are all stably free. We define also a semi-stably free ideal domain to be an Ore domain whose finitely generated left and right ideals are…

We construct a unital pre-C*-algebra $A_0$ which is stably finite, in the sense that every left invertible square matrix over $A_0$ is right invertible, while the C*-completion of $A_0$ contains a non-unitary isometry, and so it is…

We call a simplicial complex algebraically rigid if its Stanley-Reisner ring admits no nontrivial infinitesimal deformations, and call it inseparable if does not allow any deformation to other simplicial complexes. Algebraically rigid…

We prove the following. Let $R$ be a Noetherian ring, $B$ a finitely generated $R$-algebra, and $A$ a pure $R$-subalgebra of $B$. Then $A$ is finitely generated over $R$.

We show that every separable simple tracially approximately divisible $C^*$-algebra has strict comparison, is either purely infinite, or has stable rank one. As a consequence, we show that every (non-unital) finite simple ${\cal Z}$-stable…
