AbstractWe provide more characterizations of varieties with a weak difference term and of neutral varieties. We prove that a variety has a (weak) difference term (is neutral) with respect to the TC-commutator iff it has a (weak) difference term (is neutral) with respect to the linear commutator. We show that a variety V is congruence meet semi-distributive iff V is neutral, iff M3 is not a sublattice of Con A, for A ∈ V, iff there is a positive integer n such that .

Abstract For a positive integer n and a prime p, let {n}_{p} denote the p-part of n. Let G be a group, \text{cd}(G) the set of all irreducible character degrees of G , \rho (G) the set of all prime divisors of integers in \text{cd}(G) , V(G)=\left\{{p}^{{e}_{p}(G)}|p\in \rho (G)\right\} , where {p}^{{e}_{p}(G)}=\hspace{.25em}\max \hspace{.25em}\{\chi {(1)}_{p}|\chi \in \text{Irr}(G)\}. In this article, it is proved that G\cong {L}_{2}({p}^{2}) if and only if |G|=|{L}_{2}({p}^{2})| and V(G)=V({L}_{2}({p}^{2})) .

Maximum stability of a distribution with respect to a positive integer random variable N is defined by the property that the type of distribution is not changed when considering the maximum value of N independent observations. The logistic distribution is proved to be the only symmetric distribution which is maximum stable with respect to each member of a sequence of positive integer random variables assuming value 1 with probability tending to 1. If a distribution is maximum stable with respect to such a sequence and minimum stable with respect to another, then it must be logistic, loglogistic or ‘backward' loglogistic. The only possible sample size distributions in these cases are geometric.

In our recent papers [3, 4, 5], we defined some new D-invariants for any square-free positive integer D and considered their properties and interrelations among them. Especially, as an application of it, we discussed in [5] the characterization of real quadratic field Q() of so-called Richaud-Degert type in terms of these new D-invariants.

AbstractLet P be a prime ideal of a ring R, O(P) = {a ∊ R | aRs = 0, for some s ∊ R/P} | and Ō(P) = {x ∊ R | xn ∊ O(P), for some positive integer n}. Several authors have obtained sheaf representations of rings whose stalks are of the form R/O(P). Also in a commutative ring a minimal prime ideal has been characterized as a prime ideal P such that P= Ō(P). In this paper we derive various conditions which ensure that a prime ideal P = Ō(P). The property that P = Ō(P) is then used to obtain conditions which determine when R/O(P) has a unique minimal prime ideal. Various generalizations of O(P) and Ō(P) are considered. Examples are provided to illustrate and delimit our results.

AbstractA ring R is called a (proper) quotient no-zero-divisor ring if every (proper) nonzero factor ring of R has no zero-divisors. A characterization of a quotient no-zero-divisor ring is given. Using it, the additive groups of quotient no-zero-divisor rings are determined. In addition, for an arbitrary positive integer n, a quotient no-zero-divisor ring with exactly n proper ideals is constructed. Finally, proper quotient no-zero-divisor rings and their additive groups are classified.

We study a recursively defined sequence which is constructed using the least common multiple. Several authors have conjectured that every term of that sequence is [Formula: see text] or a prime. In this paper we show that this claim is connected to a strong version of Linnik’s theorem, which is still unproved. We also study a generalization that replaces the first term by any positive integer. Under this variation some composite numbers may appear now. We give a full characterization of these numbers.

Graphs and Algorithms International audience A k-uniform hypergraph H = ( V; E) is said to be self-complementary whenever it is isomorphic with its complement (H) over bar = ( V; ((V)(k)) - E). Every permutation sigma of the set V such that sigma(e) is an edge of (H) over bar if and only if e is an element of E is called self-complementing. 2-self-comlementary hypergraphs are exactly self complementary graphs introduced independently by Ringel ( 1963) and Sachs ( 1962). <br> For any positive integer n we denote by lambda(n) the unique integer such that n = 2(lambda(n)) c, where c is odd. <br> In the paper we prove that a permutation sigma of [1, n] with orbits O-1,..., O-m O m is a self-complementing permutation of a k-uniform hypergraph of order n if and only if there is an integer l >= 0 such that k = a2(l) + s, a is odd, 0 <= s <= 2(l) and the following two conditions hold: <br> (i)n = b2(l+1) + r,r is an element of {0,..., 2(l) - 1 + s}, and <br> (ii) Sigma(i:lambda(vertical bar Oi vertical bar)<= l) vertical bar O-i vertical bar <= r. <br> For k = 2 this result is the very well known characterization of self-complementing permutation of graphs given by Ringel and Sachs.

Let [Formula: see text] be a ring and let [Formula: see text] be an arbitrary but fixed positive integer. We characterize those rings [Formula: see text] whose elements [Formula: see text] satisfy at least one of the relations that [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] is a nilpotent whenever [Formula: see text]. This extends results from the same branch obtained by Danchev [A characterization of weakly J(n)-rings, J. Math. Appl. 41 (2018) 53–61], Koşan et al. [Rings with [Formula: see text] nilpotent, J. Algebra Appl. 19 (2020)] and Abyzov and Tapkin [On rings with [Formula: see text] nilpotent, J. Algebra Appl. 21 (2022)], respectively.

A Signed graph (or sigraph in short) is an ordered pair S = (G, σ), where G is a graph G = (V, E) and σ : E → {+, −} is a function from the edge set E of G into the set {+, −}. For a positive integer n > 1, the unitary Cayley graph Xnis the graph whose vertex set is Zn, the integers modulo n and if Undenotes set of all units of the ring Zn, then two vertices a, b are adjacent if and only if a − b ∈ Un. In this paper, we have obtained a characterization of balanced and clusterable unitary Cayley ring sigraph [Formula: see text]. Further, we have established a characterization of canonically consistent unitary Cayley ring sigraph [Formula: see text], where n has at most two distinct odd primes factors. Also sign-compatibility has been worked out for the same.

AbstractWe characterize, by means of congruence identities, all varieties having a weak difference term, and all neutral varieties. Our characterization of varieties with a difference term is new even in the particular case of locally finite varieties.
