The zero divisor conjecture for some solvable groups

The HRT Conjecture and the Zero Divisor Conjecture for the Heisenberg Group

On the analytic zero divisor conjecture of Linnell

In this note we prove that in the case of finitely generated amenable groups the classical zero divisor conjecture implies the analytic zero divisor conjecture of Linnell.

Some Solvable Automaton Groups

It is shown that certain ascending HNN extensions of free abelian groups of finite rank, as well as various lamplighter groups, can be realized as automaton groups, i.e., can be given a self-similar structure. This includes the solvable Baumslag-Solitar groups BS(1, m), for m 6= ±1. In addition, it is shown that, for any relatively prime integers m, n ≥ 2, the pair of Baumslag-Solitar groups BS...

THE ZERO-DIVISOR GRAPH OF A MODULE

Let R be a commutative ring with identity and M an R-module. In this paper, we associate a graph to M, sayΓ(RM), such that when M=R, Γ(RM) coincide with the zero-divisor graph of R. Many well-known results by D.F. Anderson and P.S. Livingston have been generalized for Γ(RM). We Will show that Γ(RM) is connected withdiam Γ(RM)≤ 3 and if Γ(RM) contains a cycle, then Γ(RM)≤4. We will also show tha...

Zero Divisors of Hopf Algebras: A Generalization of the Classical Zero-Divisor Conjecture

In an attempt to study the zero divisors in Hopf algebras, we study four non-trivial examples of nongroup ring infinite Hopf algebras and show that a variant of Kaplansky’s classical zero divisor conjecture holds for these four Hopf algebras. In particular we proof that the Hopf algebra CG has no non-trivial zero-divisors for any infinite finitely generated group G. We then consider the zero di...
