Hanna Neumann asked whether it was possible for two non-isomorphic residually nilpotent finitely generated (fg) groups, one of them free, to share the lower central sequence. G. Baumslag answered the question in the affirmative and thus gave rise to parafree groups. A group G is termed parafree of rank n if it is residually nilpotent and shares the same lower central sequence with a free group ...

Let Z be the center of a nonnoetherian dimer algebra on torus. Although itself is also nonnoetherian, we show that it has Krull dimension 3, and locally noetherian an open dense set Max . Furthermore, reduced / nil depicted by Gorenstein singularity, contains precisely one closed point positive geometric dimension.

Let (R, m) be a local ring of Krull dimension d and I ⊆ R be an ideal with analytic spread d. We show that the j-multiplicity of I is determined by the Rees valuations of I centered on m. We also discuss a multiplicity that is the limsup of a sequence of lengths that grow at an O(nd) rate.

We reduce the study of the Krull dimension d of the deformation ring of the functor of deformations of curves with automorphisms to the study of the tangent space of the deformation functor of a class of matrix representations of the p-part of the decomposition groups at wild ramified points, and we give a method in order to compute d.

This is the third paper in a sequence on Krull dimension for limit groups, answering a question of Z. Sela. We give generalizations of the well known fact that a nontrivial commutator in a free group is not a proper power to both graphs of free groups over cyclic subgroups and freely decomposable groups. None of the paper is specifically about limit groups.

We investigate width and Krull–Gabriel dimension over commutative Noetherian rings which are “tame” according to the Klingler–Levy analysis in [4], [5] and [6], in particular over Dedekind-like rings and their homomorphic images. We show that both are undefined in most cases.

Introduction. Let A be a noetherian ring. When A is commutative (of finite Krull dimension), A is said to be Gorenstein if its injective dimension is finite. If A has finite global dimension, one says that A is regular. If A is arbitrary, these hypotheses are not sufficient to obtain similar results to those of the commutative case. To remedy this problem, M. Auslander has introduced a suppleme...
