We show that the equivariant Chow cohomology ring of a toric variety is naturally isomorphic to the ring of integral piecewise polynomial functions on the associated fan. This gives a large class of singular spaces for which localization holds in equivariant Chow cohomology with integer coefficients. We also compute the equivariant Chow cohomology of toric prevarieties and general complex hyper...

in this paper, we introduce a class of rings which is a generalization of reversible rings. let r be a ring with identity. a ring r is called central reversible if for any a,b ∈ r, ab=0 implies ba belongs to the center of r. since every reversible ring is central reversible, we study sufficient conditions for central reversible rings to be reversible. we prove that some results of reversible ri...

Throughout the paper, all rings are associative rings with identity 1. The set of all idempotents of a ring R is denoted by E(R). Also, for a subset X ⊆ R, we denote the right [resp., left] annihilator of X by r(X) [resp., (X)]. We call a ring R a left p.p.-ring [3], in brevity, an l.p.p.-ring, if every principal left ideal of R, regarded as a left R-module, is projective. Dually, we may define...

OBJECTIVE The internal thoracic artery (ITA) is the most important graft in coronary artery bypass grafting. Its distal region is, however, prone to vasospasm. We studied the effects of nitroglycerin (NTG) and isosorbide-dinitrate (DSDN) on distal segments of left versus right ITA. METHODS Rings of distal segments (6 to 9 mm proximal to bifurcation) of the human left and right ITA were studie...

in this paper we focus on a special class of commutative local‎ ‎rings called spap-rings and study the relationship between this‎ ‎class and other classes of rings‎. ‎we characterize the structure of‎ ‎modules and especially‎, ‎the prime submodules of free modules over‎ ‎an spap-ring and derive some basic properties‎. ‎then we answer the‎ ‎question of lam and reyes about strongly oka ideals fam...

PURPOSE Understanding the anatomy of the pterygomaxillary junction region helps prevent blood loss in Le Fort I osteotomy. Here, we determined the location of the descending palatine artery and the structure of the pterygomaxillary region. PATIENTS AND METHODS The study group consisted of 82 Japanese patients with mandibular prognathism and asymmetry, with and without maxillary retrognathism ...
