We study commutative algebras generated by idempotents with particular emphasis on the number of primitive idempotents. Let [Formula: see text] be an integral domain with the field of fractions [Formula: see text] and let [Formula: see text] be an [Formula: see text]-algebra which is torsion-free as an [Formula: see text]-module. We show that if [Formula: see text] satisfies the three conditions: [Formula: see text] is generated by idempotents over [Formula: see text]; [Formula: see text] is countably infinite dimensional over [Formula: see text]; [Formula: see text] has [Formula: see text] primitive idempotents for a nonnegative integer [Formula: see text], then [Formula: see text] is uniquely determined up to [Formula: see text]-algebra isomorphism. We also consider the case where [Formula: see text] has countably many primitive idempotents.

AbstractAn explicit description of the ring of the rational polynomials in r indeterminates as a representation of the Lie algebra of the endomorphisms of the k-th exterior power of a countably infinite-dimensional vector space is given. Our description is based on results by Laksov and Throup concerning the symmetric structure of the exterior power of a polynomial ring. Our results are based on approximate versions of the vertex operators occurring in the celebrated bosonic vertex representation, due to Date, Jimbo, Kashiwara and Miwa, of the Lie algebra of all matrices of infinite size, whose entries are all zero but finitely many.

It was shown by Baer in [1] that every soluble group satisfying Min-n, the minimal condition for normal subgroups, is a torsion group. Examples of non-soluble locally soluble groups satisfying Min-n have been known for some time (see McLain [2]), and these examples too are periodic. This raises the question whether all locally soluble groups with Min-n are torsion groups. We prove here that this is not the case, by establishing the existence of non-trivial locally soluble torsion-free groups satisfying Min-n. Rather than exhibiting one such group G, we give a general method for constructing examples; the reader will then be able to see that a variety of additional conditions may be imposed on G. It will follow, for instance, that G may be a Hopf group whose normal subgroups are linearly ordered by inclusion and are all complemented in G; further, that the countable groups G with these properties fall into exactly isomorphism classes. Again, there are exactly isomorphism classes of countable groups G which have hypercentral nonnilpotent Hirsch-Plotkin radical, and which at the same time are isomorphic to all their non-trivial homomorphic images.

AbstractLet A be a C*-algebra and K the C*-algebra of all compact operators on a countably infinite dimensional Hilbert space. In this note, we shall show that there is an isomorphism of a semigroup of equivalence classes of certain partial automorphisms of A ⊗ K onto a semigroup of equivalence classes of certain countably generated A-A-Hilbert bimodules.

AbstractIf R is a Dedekind domain, then div splits i.e.; the maximal divisible submodule of every R-module M is a direct summand of M. We investigate the status of this result for some finite-dimensional hereditary algebras. We use a torsion theory which permits the existence of torsion-free divisible modules for such algebras. Using this torsion theory we prove that the algebras obtained from extended Coxeter- Dynkin diagrams are the only such hereditary algebras for which div splits. The field of rational functions plays an essential role. The paper concludes with a new type of infinite-dimensional indecomposable module over a finite-dimensional wild hereditary algebra.

In the previous paper [3] the author has shown a possibility to construct a series of sfields by taking sfields of quotients of split crossed products of a sfield. In this paper the same problem is treated, and, by considering general crossed products, a generalization of the previous result is given: Let K be a sfield and G be the join of a well-ordered ascending chain of groups Gα of outer automorphisms of K such that a) G1 is the identity automorphism group, b) Gα is a group extension of Gα-1 by a torsion-free abelian group for each non-limit ordinal α, and c) for each limit ordinal α. Then an arbitrary crossed product of K with G is an integral domain with a sfield of quotients Q and the commutor ring of K in Q coincides with the centre of K.

Let R be a ring with identity. The unit graph of R, denoted by G(R), is a simple graph with vertex set R, and where two distinct vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if x + y is a unit in R. The genus of a simple graph G is the smallest nonnegative integer g such that G can be embedded into an orientable surface Sg. In this paper, we determine all isomorphism classes of finite commutative rings whose unit graphs have genus at most three.

Throughout this discussion R will be an integral domain with quotient field Q and K = Q/R ≠ 0. If A is an R-module, then A is said to be torsion-free (resp. divisible), if for every r ≠ 0 ∈ R the endomorphism of A defined by x → rx, x ∈ A, is a monomorphism (resp. epimorphism). If A is torsion-free, the rank of A is defined to be the dimension over Q of the vector space A ⊗R Q; (we note that a torsion-free R-module of rank one is the same thing as a non-zero R-submodule of Q). A will be said to be indecomposable, if A has no proper, non-zero, direct summands. We shall say that A has D.C.C., if A satisfies the descending chain condition for submodules. By dim R we shall mean the maximal length of a chain of prime ideals in R.

For a pair of rings S ⊆ T and a nonnegative integer n, an element t ∈ T\S is said to be within n steps of S if there is a saturated chain of rings S = S0 ⊊ S1 ⊊ ⋯ ⊊ Sm = S[t] with length m ≤ n. An integral domain R is said to be n-valuative (respectively, finitely valuative) if for each nonzero element u in its quotient field, at least one of u and u-1 is within n (respectively, finitely many) steps of R. The integral closure of a finitely valuative domain is a Prüfer domain. Moreover, an n-valuative domain has at most 2n + 1 maximal ideals; and an n-valuative domain with 2n + 1 maximal ideals must be a Prüfer domain.

A torsion-free module M over a commutative integral domain R is said to be LCM-stable over R if (Ra ∩ Rb)M = Ma ∩ Mb for all a, b ∈ R. We show that if the module M is LCM-stable over a GCD-domain R, then the polynomial module M[X] is LCM-stable over R[X]; if R is a w-coherent locally GCD-domain, then LCM-stability and reflexivity are equivalent for w-finite type torsion-free R-modules. Finally, we introduce the concept of w-LCM-stability for modules over a domain. Then we characterize when the module M is w-LCM-stable over the domain in terms of localizations and t-Nagata modules, respectively. Also we characterize Prüfer v-multiplication domains and Krull domains in terms of w-LCM-stability.
