Let $F$ be an infinite field and let $f$ be a nonzero multilinear polynomial with coefficients in $F$. We prove that for every positive integer $d$ there exists a positive integer $s$ such that $f(M_{s}(F))$, the image of $f$ in $M_{s}(F)$,…

Let $f : A \rightarrow B$ be a ring homomorphism and $J$ be an ideal of $B$. In this paper, we give a characterization of zero divisors of the amalgamation which is a generalization of Maimani's and Yassemi's work (see \cite{y}). Also, we…

The nilpotency degree of a relatively free finitely generated associative algebra with the identity $x^n=0$ is studied over finite fields.

We prove that the classes of weakly $1$-dimensional and almost $0$-dimensional spaces are disjoint. The result has applications to hereditarily locally connected spaces, $\mathbb R$-trees, and endpoints of smooth fans.

We show that in a tracial and finitely generated $W^\ast$-probability space existence of conjugate variables in an appropriate sense exclude algebraic relations for the generators. Moreover, under the assumption of finite non-microstates…

Frobenius' Theorem states that the algebra of quaternions $\mathbb H$ is, besides the fields of real and complex numbers, the only finite-dimensional real division algebra. We first give a short elementary proof of this theorem, then…

We find an infinite dimensional free algebra which lives at large N in any SU(N)-invariant action or Hamiltonian theory of bosonic matrices. The natural basis of this algebra is a free-algebraic generalization of Chebyshev polynomials and…

We study four (families of) sets of algebraic integers of degree less than or equal to three. Apart from being simply defined, we show that they share two distinctive characteristics: almost uniformity and arithmetical independence. Here,…

G. Prasad and A. Rapinchuk asked if two quaternion division F -algebras that have the same subfields are necessarily isomorphic. The answer is known to be "no" for some very large fields. We prove that the answer is "yes" if F is an…

A compatible associative algebra is a vector space equipped with two associative multiplication structures that interact in a certain natural way. This article presents the classification of these algebras with dimension less than four, as…

Generalising and unifying the known theorems for difference and differential fields, it is shown that for every finite free ${\mathbb S}$-algebra ${\mathcal D}$ over a field $A$ of characteristic zero the theory of ${\mathcal D}$-fields has…

In [3] S. J. Bhatt and H. V. Dedania exposed certain classes of Banach algebras in which every element is a topological divisor of zero. We identify a new (large) class of Banach algebras with the aforementioned property, namely, the class…

It is well known that the positive degree cohomology of a finite group G is annihilated by |G|. We improve on this bound in the case of odd degree elements in the integer cohomology ring and show that $e_{odd}(G)$, the exponent of the…

In this paper, we give a classification of the 3-dimensional associative algebras over the complex numbers, including a construction of the moduli space, using versal deformations to determine how the space is glued together.

Let $R$ be an associative ring with ${\bf 1}$ which is not commutative. Assume that any non-zero commutator $v\in R$ satisfies: $v^2$ is in the center of $R$ and $v$ is not a zero-divisor. (Note that our assumptions do not include finite…

Let $S$ be a unital associative ring and $S[t;\sigma,\delta]$ be a skew polynomial ring, where $\sigma$ is an injective endomorphism of $S$ and $\delta$ a left $\sigma$-derivation. For each $f\in S[t;\sigma,\delta]$ of degree $m>1$ with a…

Theorem 7 in Ref. [Linear Algebra Appl., 430, 1-6, (2009)] states sufficient conditions to determine whether a pair generates the algebra of 3x3 matrices over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. In that case, an explicit…

We study whether a unital associative algebra $ A $ over a field admits a decomposition of the form $A = Z(A) + [A,A]$ where $ Z(A) $ is the center of $ A $ and $ [A,A] $ denotes the additive subgroup of $A$ generated by all additive…

We study the number of real zeros of trigonometric polynomials in a period and the number of zeros of self-reciprocal algebraic polynomials on the unit circle under the assumption that their coefficients are in a fixed finite set of real…
