An associative ring with unity is called clean if each of its elements is the sum of an idempotent and a unit. A clean ring with involution ∗ is called ∗-clean if each of its elements is the sum of a unit and a projection (∗-invariant idempotent). In a recent paper, Huang, Li and Yuan provided a complete characterization that when a group ring [Formula: see text] is ∗-clean, where [Formula: see text] is a finite field and [Formula: see text] is a cyclic group of an odd prime power order [Formula: see text]. They also provided a necessary condition and a few sufficient conditions for [Formula: see text] to be ∗-clean, where [Formula: see text] is a cyclic group of order [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we extend the above result of Huang, Li and Yuan from [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text] and provide a characterization of ∗-clean group rings [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a finite abelian group and [Formula: see text] is a field with characteristic not dividing the exponent of [Formula: see text].

A ring with involution * is called *-clean if each of its elements is the sum of a unit and a projection. Clearly a *-clean ring is clean. Vaš asked whether there exists a clean ring with involution * that is not *-clean. In a recent paper, Gao, Chen and the first author investigated when a group ring RG with classical involution * is *-clean and obtained necessary and sufficient conditions for RG to be *-clean, where R is a commutative local ring and G is one of C3, C4, S3 and Q8. As a consequence, the authors provided many examples of group rings which are clean, but not *-clean. In this paper, we continue this investigation and we give a complete characterization of when the group algebra 𝔽Cp is *-clean, where 𝔽 is a field and Cp is the cyclic group of prime order p. Our main result is related closely to the irreducible factorization of a pth cyclotomic polynomial over the field 𝔽. Among other results we also obtain a complete characterization of when RCn (3 ≤ n ≤ 6) is *-clean where R is a commutative local ring.

We study the separability of bipartite quantum systems in arbitrary dimensions using the Bloch representation of their density matrix. This approach enables us to find an alternative characterization of the separability problem, from which we derive a necessary condition and sufficient conditions for separability. For a certain class of states the necessary condition and a sufficient condition turn out to be equivalent, therefore yielding a necessary and sufficient condition. The proofs of the sufficient conditions are constructive, thus providing decompositions in pure product states for the states that satisfy them. We provide examples that show the ability of these conditions to detect entanglement. In particular, the necessary condition is proved to be strong enough to detect bound entangled states.

The main objective of this paper is to provide complete characterization of multigenerator Gabor frames on a periodic set $\Omega$ in $K$. In particular, we provide some necessary and sufficient conditions for the multigenerator Gabor system to be a frame for $L^2(\Omega)$. Furthermore, we establish the complete characterizations of multigenerator Parseval Gabor frames.

AbstractDimension subgroups and Lie dimension subgroups are known to satisfy a ‘universal coefficient decomposition’, i.e. their value with respect to an arbitrary coefficient ring can be described in terms of their values with respect to the ‘universal’ coefficient rings given by the cyclic groups of infinite and prime power order. Here this fact is generalized to much more general types of induced subgroups, notably covering Fox subgroups and relative dimension subgroups with respect to group algebra filtrations induced by arbitrary N-series, as well as certain common generalisations of these which occur in the study of the former. This result relies on an extension of the principal universal coefficient decomposition theorem on polynomial ideals (due to Passi, Parmenter and Seghal), to all additive subgroups of group rings. This is possible by using homological instead of ring theoretical methods.

Let [Formula: see text] be positive integers, and let [Formula: see text] be a split metacyclic group such that [Formula: see text]. We say that [Formula: see text] is absolutely split with respect to[Formula: see text] provided that for any [Formula: see text], if [Formula: see text], then there exists [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we give a sufficient and necessary condition for the group [Formula: see text] being absolutely split. This generalizes a result of Sanming Zhou and the second author in [Weak metacirculants of odd prime power order, J. Comb. Theory A 155 (2018) 225–243]. We also use this result to investigate the relationship between metacirculants and weak metacirculants. Metacirculants were introduced by Alspach and Parsons in [Formula: see text] and have been a rich source of various topics since then. As a generalization of this class of graphs, Marušič and Šparl in 2008 introduced the so-called weak metacirculants. A graph is called a weak metacirculant if it has a vertex-transitive metacyclic automorphism group. In this paper, it is proved that a weak metacirculant of [Formula: see text]-power order is a metacirculant if and only if it has a vertex-transitive split metacyclic automorphism group. This provides a partial answer to an open question in the literature.

In this paper, we give a complete characterization of the existence of a galled-tree network in the form of simple sufficient and necessary conditions for both root-known and root-unknown cases. As a by-product we obtain a simple algorithm for constructing galled-tree networks. We also introduce a new necessary condition for the existence of a galled-tree network similar to bi-convexity.
