Let $E$ be a field satisfying the following conditions: (i) the $p$-component of the Brauer group Br$(E)$ is nontrivial whenever $p$ is a prime number for which $E$ is properly included in its maximal $p$-extension; (ii) the relative Brauer…
The differential Brauer monoid of a differential commutative ring R s defined. Its elements are the isomorphism classes of differential Azumaya R algebras with operation from tensor product subject to the relation that two such algebras are…
By algebraic group theory, there is a map from the semisimple conjugacy classes of a finite group of Lie type to the conjugacy classes of the Weyl group. Picking a semisimple class uniformly at random yields a probability measure on…
The notion of a semitransitive binary action of a group $G$ on a topological space is introduced. A duality theorem is proved, establishing a bijective correspondence between semitransitive distributive binary $G$-spaces and topological…
We prove a semisimplicity criterion for a large class of algebras by a new method. This can be applied to Brauer, BMW, and $q$-Brauer algebras.
We compute the number of orbit types for simply connected simple algebraic groups over algebraically closed fields as well as for compact simply connected simple Lie groups. We also compute the number of orbit types for the adjoint action…
We prove that the cup product of $\Delta$-decomposable quasimorphisms, Brooks quasimorphisms or Rolli quasimorphisms with any bounded cohomology class of arbitrary positive degree is trivial.
In ``New Proofs of the structure theorems for Witt Rings'', Lewis shows how the standard ring-theoretic results on the Witt ring can be deduced in a quick and elementary way from the fact that the Witt ring of a field is integral and from…
In 1965, Baxter established that a simple ring is either a field or that every one of its elements can be expressed as a sum of products of commutator pairs. In a recent paper, Gardella and Thiel demonstrated that every element in a…
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…
Let $G$ be a finite primitive permutation group on a set $\Omega$ with nontrivial point stabilizer $G_{\alpha}$. We say that $G$ is extremely primitive if $G_{\alpha}$ acts primitively on each of its orbits in $\Omega \setminus \{\alpha\}$.…
We generalize certain parts of the theory of group rings to the twisted case. Let G be a finite group acting (possibly trivially) on a field L of characteristic coprime to the order of the kernel of this operation. Let K in L be the fixed…
We classify, up to equivalence, all finite-dimensional simple graded division algebras over the field of real numbers. The grading group is any finite abelian group.
A commutative ring R is said to be coverable if it is the union of its proper subrings and said to be finitely coverable if it is the union of a finite number of them. In the latter case, we denote by {\sigma}(R) the minimal number of…
We find new sufficient conditions for the commutator map of a real semisimple Lie algebra to be surjective. As an application we prove the surjectivity of the commutator map for all simple algebras except $\mathfrak su_{p,q}$ ($p$ or $q$…
We show that every central simple algebra A over a field k is Brauer equivalent to a quotient of a finite dimensional Hopf algebra over the same field (that is- A is Hopf Schur). If the characteristic of the field is zero, or if the algebra…
The celebrated Borel--Tits theorem provides a classification of abstract isomorphisms between (simple) isotropic groups over fields, showing that such isomorphisms arise from field isomorphisms and group-scheme isomorphisms. In this work,…
In this paper, we will prove that any $\A^3$-form over a field $k$ of characteristic zero is trivial provided it has a locally nilpotent derivation satisfying certain properties. We will also show that the result of T. Kambayashi on the…
Questions related to Brauer-Manin obstructions to the Hasse principle and weak approximation for homogeneous spaces of tori over a number field are well-studied, generally using arithmetic duality theorems, starting with works of Sansuc and…
Two are the objectives of the present paper. First we study properties of a differentially simple commutative ring R with respect to a set D of derivations of R. Among the others we investigate the relation between the D-simplicity of R and…
