We introduce the notion of a graded integral element, prove the counterpart of the lying-over theorem on commutative algebra in the context of left commutative rngs, and use the Hu-Liu product to select a class of noncommutative rings. Left commutative rngs were introduced in [1]. I have two reasons to be interested in left commutative rngs. The first reason is that left commutative rngs are a ...

Homotopy groups of a connective ring spectrum R form an Ngraded algebra π∗R which is commutative if R is commutative. We describe a secondary algebra π∗,∗R which enriches the structure of the algebra π∗R in a new unexpected way. The algebra π∗,∗R encodes secondary homotopy operations in π∗R, such as Toda brackets, and the first Postnikov invariant of R as a ring spectrum. Moreover, π∗,∗R repres...

The subject of this paper are two Hopf algebras which are the non-commutative analogues of two different groups of formal power series. The first group is the set of invertible series with the group law being multiplication of series, while the second group is the set of formal diffeomorphisms with the group law being composition of series. The motivation to introduce these Hopf algebras comes ...

The determinant is a main organizing tool in commutative linear algebra. In this review we present a theory of the quasideterminants defined for matrices over a division algebra. We believe that the notion of quasideterminants should be a main organizing tool in noncommutative algebra giving them the same role determinants play in commutative algebra.

This talk will provide a snapshot of contemporary commutative algebra. In classical commutative algebra and algebraic number theory, the Dedekind domains are the most important class of rings. Modern commutative algebra studies numerous generalizations of the Dedekind domains in attempts to generalize results of algebraic number theory. This talk will introduce a few important generalizations o...

We show that the complexification (Ã, τ̃) of a real locally pseudoconvex (locally absorbingly pseudoconvex, locally multiplicatively pseudoconvex, and exponentially galbed) algebra (A,τ) is a complex locally pseudoconvex (resp., locally absorbingly pseudoconvex, locally multiplicatively pseudoconvex, and exponentially galbed) algebra and all elements in the complexification (Ã, τ̃) of a commutati...

We describe geometric non-commutative formal groups in terms of a geometric commutative formal group with a Poisson structure on its splay algebra. We describe certain natural properties of such Poisson structures and show that any such Poisson structure gives rise to a non-commutative formal group. We describe geometric non-commutative formal groups in terms of a geometric commutative formal g...
