AbstractNecessary and sufficient conditions to ensure that the direct sum of two Abelian groups with zero entropy is again of zero entropy are still unknown; interestingly the same problem is also unresolved for direct sums of Hopfian and co-Hopfian groups.We obtain sufficient conditions in some situations by placing restrictions on the homomorphisms between the groups. There are clear similarities between the various cases but there is not a simple duality involved.

Given a hereditary torsion theory on the category Mod R of right R-modules we obtain in this paper necessary and sufficient conditions for the direct sum of a given family of R-modules to be divisible for the torsion theory . Using this criterion we show that if is a family of R-modules having the property that is divisible for every countable subset K ol J then is itself divisible.

Conrad ((2)), has shown that any lattice group which obeys (C.F.) each strictly positive element exceeds at most a finite number of pairwise orthogonal elements may be constructed, from a family of simply ordered groups, by carrying out, alternately, the operations of forming finite direct sums and lexico extensions, at most a countable number of times. The main result of this paper, Theorem 3.1, gives necessary and sufficient conditions for a multilattice group, which obeys (ℋ*), to be isomorphic to a multilattice group which is constructed from a family of almost ordered groups, by carrying out, alternately, the operations of forming arbitrary direct sums and lexico extensions, any number of times; we call such a group a lexico sum of the almost ordered groups.

We introduce Partially Coherent Direct Sum (PCDS) quantum channels, as a generalization of the already known Direct Sum quantum channels. We derive necessary and sufficient conditions to identify the subset of those maps which are degradable, and provide a simplified expression for their quantum capacities. Interestingly, the special structure of PCDS allows us to extend the computation of the quantum capacity formula also for quantum channels which are explicitly not degradable (nor antidegradable). We show instances of applications of the results to dephasing channels, amplitude damping channels and combinations of the two.

It is proved that a ring is periodic if and only if, for any elementsxandy, there exist positive integersk,l,m, andnwith eitherk≠morl≠n, depending onxandy, for whichxkyl=xmyn. Necessary and sufficient conditions are established for a ring to be a direct sum of a nil ring and aJ-ring.

A near-ring N is defined to be left bipotent if Na = Na2 for each a in N. Many properties of such near-rings are proved in Section 1, and results of Chandran (4) are generalised. Most of the results are different from, and contrary to, the ring case. Necessary and sufficient conditions have also been obtained under which such near-rings become regular. Section 2 deals with left bipotent near-rings without zero divisors. Some structure theorems for direct sum decompositions and J(N) = (0) are proved and it is shown that for a left bipotent S-near-ring, the singular ‘set’ S(N) = 0. Necessary examples and counter examples are supplied.

Let [Formula: see text] be an odd prime, and [Formula: see text] be an integer such that [Formula: see text]. Using pairwise orthogonal idempotents [Formula: see text] of the ring [Formula: see text], with [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] is decomposed as [Formula: see text], which contains the ring [Formula: see text] as a subring. It is shown that, for [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and it is invertible if and only if [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are units of [Formula: see text]. In such cases, we study [Formula: see text]-constacyclic codes over [Formula: see text]. We present a direct sum decomposition of [Formula: see text]-constacyclic codes and their duals, which provides their corresponding generators. Necessary and sufficient conditions for a [Formula: see text]-constacyclic code to contain its dual are obtained. As an application, many new quantum codes over [Formula: see text], with better parameters than existing ones, are constructed from cyclic and negacyclic codes over [Formula: see text].

We give some necessary and sufficient conditions for the equivalency of the following two properties for a Moufang loop Q: Q over the nucleus Q/N is an abelian group and Q over the center is a group. We study those properties of Moufang loops which guarantee that L(y, x) is in the automorphism group of the loop. These imply numerous statements, among them there are well-known old results.

We prove that a polygonal product of polycyclic-by-finite groups amalgamating subgroups, with trivial intersections, is cyclic subgroup separable (hence, it is residually finite) if the amalgamated subgroups are contained in the centres of the vertex groups containing them. Hence a polygonal product of finitely generated abelian groups, amalgamating any subgroups with trivial intersections, is cyclic subgroup separable. Unlike this result, most polygonal products of four finitely generated abelian groups, with trivial intersections, are not subgroup separable (LERF). We find necessary and sufficient conditions for certain polygonal products of four groups to be subgroup separable.

This paper considers direct sums of normed spaces with respect to a Banach space with a normalised, unconditionally strictly monotone basis. Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for such direct sums to have the λ-property. These results are used to construct examples of reflexive Banach spaces U and V such that U has the uniform λ-property but U* fails to have the λ-property, while V and V* fail to have the λ-property.

We study the class of symmetric [Formula: see text]-ary bands. These are [Formula: see text]-ary semigroups [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] is invariant under the action of permutations and idempotent, i.e., satisfies [Formula: see text] for all [Formula: see text]. We first provide a structure theorem for these symmetric [Formula: see text]-ary bands that extends the classical (strong) semilattice decomposition of certain classes of bands. We introduce the concept of strong [Formula: see text]-ary semilattice of [Formula: see text]-ary semigroups and we show that the symmetric [Formula: see text]-ary bands are exactly the strong [Formula: see text]-ary semilattices of [Formula: see text]-ary extensions of Abelian groups whose exponents divide [Formula: see text]. Finally, we use the structure theorem to obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for a symmetric [Formula: see text]-ary band to be reducible to a semigroup.
