Let [Formula: see text] be factorial domains containing [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we give a criterion, in terms of locally nilpotent derivations, for [Formula: see text] to be [Formula: see text]-isomorphic to [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is nonzero and [Formula: see text]. As a consequence, we retrieve a recent result due to Masuda [Families of hypersurfaces with noncancellation property, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 145(4) (2017) 1439–1452] characterizing Danielewski hypersurfaces whose coordinate ring is factorial. We also apply our criterion to the study of triangularizable locally nilpotent [Formula: see text]-derivations of the polynomial ring in two variables over [Formula: see text].

We show that a differential polynomial ring over a locally nilpotent ring in several commuting variables is Behrens radical, extending a result by Chebotar.

AbstractWe compute the Grothendieck and Picard groups of a smooth toric DM stack by using a suitable category of graded modules over a polynomial ring. The polynomial ring with a suitable grading and suitable irrelevant ideal functions is a homogeneous coordinate ring for the stack.

The discrete LS algebra over a totally ordered set is the homogeneous coordinate ring of an irreducible projective (normal) toric variety. We prove that this algebra is the ring of invariants of a finite abelian group containing no pseudo-reflection acting on a polynomial ring. This is used to study the Gorenstein property for LS algebras. Further we show that any LS algebra is Koszul.

We construct a nil ring R which has bounded index of nilpotence 2, is Wedderburn radical, and is commutative, and which also has a derivation δ for which the differential polynomial ring R[x;δ] is not even prime radical. This example gives a strong barrier to lifting certain radical properties from rings to differential polynomial rings. It also demarcates the strength of recent results about locally nilpotent PI rings.

The problem of finite generation of the kernel of a derivation of a polynomial ring is a special case of Hilbert's Fourteenth Problem. It is well known that the answer is affirmative if the derivation is locally nilpotent and having a slice. Van den Essen (1995) conjectured that there exists a counterexample for non-locally nilpotent derivations with a slice. In this paper, we solve this conjecture in the affirmative.

In this paper, we study some connections between the polynomial ring $R[y]$ and the differential polynomial ring $R[x;D]$. In particular, we answer a question posed by Smoktunowicz, which asks whether $R[y]$ is nil when $R[x;D]$ is nil, provided that $R$ is an algebra over a field of positive characteristic and $D$ is a locally nilpotent derivation.

<em>Ring of integers under the addition and multiplication as integral domain can be imbedded to the field of rational numbers. In this paper we make&nbsp; a construction such that any integral domain can be&nbsp; a field of quotient. The construction contains three steps. First, we define element of field F from elements of integral domain D. Secondly, we show that the binary operations in fare well-defined. Finally, we prove that </em><em>&nbsp;</em><em>f</em><em> </em><em>:</em><em> </em><em>D </em><em>&reg;</em><em> </em><em>F is an isomorphisma. In this case, the polynomial ring F[x] as the integral domain can be imbedded to the field of quotient.</em>
