On the classification of rings of “small” rank

چکیده

That is, a ring of rank n is a ring (commutative, associative, with unit) whose underlying additive group is isomorphic to Z. The prototypical examples of rings of rank n are, of course, orders in degree n number fields. The class of all such examples consists precisely of those rings of rank n that are integral domains. However, there are many interesting examples of rings of rank n that are not integral domains. For example, there are degenerate rings such as Z[x]/(x) or Z[x1, . . . , xn−1]/(x1, . . . , xn−1) . One may also construct rings of rank n by taking (any rank n subring of) a direct sum of k rings having ranks n1, . . . , nk respectively, where n1 + · · ·+ nk = n. For instance, Z⊕n is a nice example of a ring of rank n. More generally, we may consider rings of rank n over any base ring T : a ring of rank n over T is any ring that is locally free of rank n as a T -module. Concerning terminology, we refer to rings of rank 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 as quadratic, cubic, quartic, quintic, or sextic rings respectively. In these notes, we wish to classify rings of small rank n, where by “small” we mean “at most 5”.

Deep Unsupervised Domain Adaptation for Image Classification via Low Rank Representation Learning

Domain adaptation is a powerful technique given a wide amount of labeled data from similar attributes in different domains. In real-world applications, there is a huge number of data but almost more of them are unlabeled. It is effective in image classification where it is expensive and time-consuming to obtain adequate label data. We propose a novel method named DALRRL, which consists of deep ...

Classification and Biomarker Genes Selection for Cancer Gene Expression Data Using Random Forest

Background & objective: Microarray and next generation sequencing (NGS) data are the important sources to find helpful molecular patterns. Also, the great number of gene expression data increases the challenge of how to identify the biomarkers associated with cancer. The random forest (RF) is used to effectively analyze the problems of large-p and smal...

Parametrization of Rings of Small Rank: Course Description

A ring of rank n is a commutative ring that is free of rank n as a Z-module, i.e., isomorphic to Z n as an abelian group. The prototypical example of a ring of rank n is an order in a degree n number field. In this series of lectures, we investigate how rings of small rank n can be explicitly parametrized. The cases n = 4 and n = 5 are particularly interesting, as they are connected to the arit...
