Let R be a commutative ring with unity, M be an unitary R-module and {\Gamma} be a simple graph. This research article is an interplay of combinatorial and algebraic properties of M . We show a combinatorial object completely determines an…

We discuss invariants of Cohen-Macaulay local rings that admit a canonical module $\omega$. Attached to each such ring R, when $\omega$ is an ideal, there are integers--the type of R, the reduction number of $\omega$--that provide valuable…

It is well-known that within Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory (ZF), the Axiom of Choice (AC) implies the Maximal Ideal Theorem (MIT), namely that every nontrivial commutative ring has a maximal ideal. The converse implication MIT $\Rightarrow$…

We describe a simple machinery which translates results on algebraic sums of sets of reals into the corresponding results on their cartesian product. Some consequences are: 1. The product of a meager/null-additive set and a strong measure…

Let $\gamma_g(G)$ and $\gamma_{tg}(G)$ be the game domination number and the total game domination number of a graph $G$, respectively. Then $G$ is $\gamma_g$-perfect (resp. $\gamma_{tg}$-perfect), if every induced subgraph $F$ of $G$…

We show that, consistently, there exists a Borel set B subset Cantor admitting a sequence (eta_alpha:alpha<lambda) of distinct elements of Cantor such that (eta_alpha+B) cap (eta_beta+B) is uncountable for all alpha,beta<lambda but with no…

We answer a question of Darji and Keleti by proving that there exists a compact set $C_0\subset\RR$ of measure zero such that for every perfect set $P\subset\RR$ there exists $x\in\RR$ such that $(C_0+x)\cap P$ is uncountable. Using this…

The feeling that those two forcing notions-Cohen and Random-(equivalently the corresponding Boolean algebras Borel(R)/(meager sets), Borel(R)/(null sets)) are special, was probably old and widespread. A reasonable interpretation is to show…

An edge of a graph dominates itself along with any edge that shares an endpoint with it. An efficient edge dominating set (also called a dominating induced matching, DIM) is a subset of edges such that each edge of the graph is dominated by…

A vertex subset $S$ of a graph $G$ is a perfect (resp. quasiperfect) dominating set in $G$ if each vertex $v$ of $G\setminus S$ is adjacent to only one vertex ($d_v\in\{1,2\}$ vertices) of $S$. Perfect and quasiperfect dominating sets in…

It is shown that there exists a complete, atomless, sigma-centered Boolean algebra, which does not contain any regular countable subalgebra if and only if there exist a nowhere dense ultrafilter. Therefore the existence of such algebras is…

We give another proof that for every lambda >= beth_omega for every large enough regular kappa < beth_omega we have lambda^{[kappa]}= lambda, dealing with sufficient conditions for replacing beth_omega by aleph_omega. In section 2 we show…

We obtain a description of the Bipartite Perfect Matching decision problem as a multilinear polynomial over the Reals. We show that it has full degree and $(1-o_n(1))\cdot 2^{n^2}$ monomials with non-zero coefficients. In contrast, we show…

The following results are proved: (a) In a model obtained by adding aleph_2 Cohen reals, there is always a c.c.c. complete Boolean algebra without the weak Freese-Nation property. (b) Modulo the consistency strength of a supercompact…

We show that it is relatively consistent with ZF that the Borel hierarchy on the reals has length $\omega_2$. This implies that $\omega_1$ has countable cofinality, so the axiom of choice fails very badly in our model. A similar argument…

The main question here is the possible generalization of the following theorem on ``simple'' equivalence relation on 2^omega to higher cardinals. Theorem: (1) Assume that: (a) E is a Borel 2-place relation on 2^omega, (b) E is an…

Denote by $\mathcal{NA}$ and $\mathcal{MA}$ the ideals of null-additive and meager-additive subsets of~$2^\omega$, respectively. We prove in ZFC that $\mathrm{add}(\mathcal{NA})=\mathrm{non}(\mathcal{NA})$ and introduce a new (Polish)…

We develop a theory of \emph{sharp measure zero} sets that parallels Borel's \emph{strong measure zero}, and prove a theorem analogous to Galvin-Myscielski-Solovay Theorem, namely that a set of reals has sharp measure zero if and only if it…

Let $B$ be a central simple algebra of degree $n$ over a number field $K$, and $L\subset B$ a strictly maximal subfield. We say that the ring of integers $\mathcal O_L$ is "selective" if there exists an isomorphism class of maximal orders…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $M_n(R)$ be the ring of $n \times n$ matrices with entries from $R$. For each $S \subseteq M_n(R)$, we consider its (generalized) null ideal $N(S)$, which is the set of all polynomials $f$ with coefficients…
