The algebraic structure of the set of doubly stochastic circulants is that of a semi-ring. The concept of a prime in the doubly stochastic circulants is introduced in this paper and examples are given. The classiication of a prime in the doubly stochastic circulants is equivalent to the solvability of a linear equation over a doubly stochastic circulant. A representation of doubly stochastic ci...

Let X be a completely regular space and let A(X) be a ring of continuous real-valued functions onX which is closed under local bounded inversion. We show that the structure space of A(X) is homeomorphic to a quotient of the Stone–Čech compactification of X. We use this result to show that any realcompactification of X is homeomorphic to a subspace of the structure space of some ring of continuo...

s. 1 Let (R,m) be a Noetherian local ring which is a quotient of a Gorenstein local ring. Let M be a finitely generated R-module. In this paper, we study the structure of the canonical module K(RnM) of the idealization RnM via the polynomial type introduced by N. T. Cuong [5]. In particular, we give a characterization for K(RnM) being Cohen-Macaulay and generalized Cohen-Macaulay.

Let G be a finite group, F an algebraically closed field of finite characteristic p, and let B be a block of FG. We show that the Hochschild and Linckelmann cohomology rings of B are isomorphic, modulo their radicals, in the cases where (1) B is cyclic and (2) B is arbitrary and G either a nilpotent group or a Frobenius group (p odd). (The second case is a consequence of a more general result)....

We study residues on a complete toric variety X , which are defined in terms of the homogeneous coordinate ring of X . We first prove a global transformation law for toric residues. When the fan of the toric variety has a simplicial cone of maximal dimension, we can produce an element with toric residue equal to 1. We also show that in certain situations, the toric residue is an isomorphism on ...

Let R be a Krull ring with quotient field K and a1, . . . , an in R. If and only if the ai are pairwise incongruent mod every height 1 prime ideal of infinite index in R does there exist for all values b1, . . . , bn in R an interpolating integer-valued polynomial, i.e., an f ∈ K[x] with f(ai) = bi and f(R) ⊆ R. If S is an infinite subring of a discrete valuation ring Rv with quotient field K a...

The first edition of this valuable book came out nearlv forty-five years ago and since then it has gone through nineteen editions. 1 hat in itself is sufficient evidence of the popularity and utility of this book. It has been the constant endeavour of the authors to include in new editions all the new drugs and preparations that have been accepted by the profession and this edition contains nea...

Let R be a ring, α an automorphism, and δ an α-derivation of R. If the classical quotient ring Q of R exists, then R is weak α-skew Armendariz if and only if Q is weak α-skew Armendariz.

We define and study a notion of ring of formal power series with exponents in a cyclically ordered group. Such a ring is a quotient of various subrings of classical formal power series rings. It carries a two variable valuation function. In the particular case where the cyclically ordered group is actually totally ordered, our notion of formal power series is equivalent to the classical one in ...

We suggest to endow Mumford’s GIT quotient scheme with a stack structure, by replacing Proj(−) of the invariant ring with its stack theoretic analogue. We analyse the stacks resulting in this way from classically studied invariant rings, and in particular for binary forms of low degree. Our viewpoint is that the stack structure carries interesting geometric information that is intrinsically pre...
