4.3. (i) Since HomA(A (I),M) ∼= M (I) for a set I and ⊕ is exact, it is clear that HomA(A (I),−) is exact, i.e. A(I) is projective. (ii) “Only if” part: Let A(P ) = ⊕ p∈P Ap be the free A-module indexed by P and ψ : A (P ) → p be the A-homomorphism such that ψ(1p) = p. Then ψ is surjective. If P is projective, then ψ has a section, i.e. an A-homomorphism φ : P → A(P ) such that ψ ◦ φ = idP . Th...

1.1. Khovanov’s Homology and Conjecture. In his 1999 paper [K1] in Duke Mathematical Journal, Mikhail Khovanov showed that the Jones link polynomial is the graded Euler characteristic of a bigraded homology module H (D) over Z[c], associated to a diagram D of the link. H (D) is the homology of a bigraded chain complex C(D) with a (1, 0)-bigraded differential. He also explained how each link cob...

We show that there exists a natural non-degenerate pairing of the homomorphism space between two neighbor standard modules over a quasi-hereditary algebra with the first extension space between the corresponding costandard modules and vise versa. Investigation of this phenomenon leads to a family of pairings involving standard, costandard and tilting modules. In the graded case, under some ”Kos...

Let Fn be a free group of rank n and F n the quotient group of Fn by the subgroup [Γn(3),Γn(3)][[Γn(2),Γn(2)],Γn(2)] where Γn(k) denotes the k-th subgroup of the lower central series of the free group Fn. In this paper, we determine the group structure of the graded quotients of the lower central series of the group F n by using a generalized Chen’s integration in free groups. Then we apply it ...

Let (R, m) and (S, n) be commutative Noetherian local rings, and let φ : R→ S be a flat local homomorphism such that mS = n and the induced map on residue fields R/m→ S/n is an isomorphism. Given a finitely generated R-module M , we show that M has an S-module structure compatible with the given R-module structure if and only if Ext R (S,M) = 0 for each i ≥ 1. We say that an S-module N is exten...

Let $nin mathbb{N}$. An additive map $h:Ato B$ between algebras $A$ and $B$ is called $n$-Jordan homomorphism if $h(a^n)=(h(a))^n$ for all $ain A$. We show that every $n$-Jordan homomorphism between commutative Banach algebras is a $n$-ring homomorphism when $n < 8$. For these cases, every involutive $n$-Jordan homomorphism between commutative C-algebras is norm continuous.

It is proved that if $\varphi\colon A\to B$ a local homomorphism of commutative noetherian rings, nonzero finitely generated $B$-module $N$ whose flat dimension over $A$ at most $\mathrm{edim}\, A - \mathrm{edim}\, B$, free $B$, and $\varphi$ special type complete intersection. This result motivated by "patching method" developed Taylor Wiles, conjecture de Smit, the first author, dealing with ...

Let (R, m) and (S, n) be commutative Noetherian local rings, and let φ : R→ S be a flat local homomorphism such that mS = n and the induced map on residue fields R/m→ S/n is an isomorphism. Given a finitely generated R-module M , we show that M has an S-module structure compatible with the given R-module structure if and only if Ext R (S,M) = 0 for each i ≥ 1. We say that an S-module N is exten...

let $mathcal {a} $ and $mathcal {b} $ be c$^*$-algebras. assume that $mathcal {a}$ is of real rank zero and unital with unit $i$ and $k>0$ is a real number. it is shown that if $phi:mathcal{a} tomathcal{b}$ is an additive map preserving $|cdot|^k$ for all normal elements; that is, $phi(|a|^k)=|phi(a)|^k $ for all normal elements $ainmathcal a$, $phi(i)$ is a projection, and there exists a posit...

In this paper, all rings are associative with identity and all modules are unital left modules unless otherwise specified. Let R be a ring and M a module. N ≤M will mean N is a submodule of M. A submodule E of M is called essential in M (notation E ≤e M) if E∩A = 0 for any nonzero submodule A of M. Dually, a submodule S of M is called small in M (notation S M) if M = S+T for any proper submodul...
