The maximal dimension of a commutative subalgebra of the Grassmann algebra is determined. It is shown that for any commutative subalgebra there exists an equidimensional commutative subalgebra spanned by monomials. It follows that the maximal dimension of a commutative subalgebra can be expressed in terms of the maximal size of an intersecting system of subsets of odd size in a finite set. 2010...

Twisted Eguchi-Kawai reduced chiral models are shown to be formally equivalent a U(1) non-commutative parent theory. The non-commutative theory describes the vacuum dynamics of the non-commutative charged tachyonic field of a brane system. To make contact with the continuum non-commutative theory, a double scaling large N limit for the reduced model is required. We show a possible limiting proc...

The rings considered in this article are commutative rings with identity $1neq 0$. The aim of this article is to define and study the exact annihilating-ideal graph of commutative rings. We discuss the interplay between the ring-theoretic properties of a ring and graph-theoretic properties of exact annihilating-ideal graph of the ring.

The decomposition theorem for torsion abelian groups holds analogously for torsion commutative diassociative loops. With this theorem in mind, we investigate commutative diassociative loops satisfying the additional condition (trivially satisfied in the abelian group case) that all nth powers are central, for a fixed n. For n = 2, we get precisely commutative C loops. For n = 3, a prominent var...
