We give the first exact determinantal formula for the resultant of an unmixed sparse system of four Laurent polynomials in three variables with arbitrary support. This follows earlier work by the author on exact formulas for bivariate systems and also uses the exterior algebra techniques of Eisenbud and Schreyer.

People are often able to reliably detect a mixture of 2 or more odorants, even if they cannot reliably detect the individual mixture components when presented individually. This phenomenon has been called mixture agonism. However, for some mixtures, agonism among mixture components is greater in barely detectable mixtures than in more easily detectable mixtures (level dependence). Most studies ...

let r be an associative ring with unity. an element a in r is said to be r-clean if a = e+r, where e is an idempotent and r is a regular (von neumann) element in r. if every element of r is r-clean, then r is called an r-clean ring. in this paper, we prove that the concepts of clean ring and r-clean ring are equivalent for abelian rings. further we prove that if 0 and 1 are the only idempotents...

in this work, we investigate the transfer of some homological properties from a ring $r$ to its amalgamated duplication along some ideal $i$ of $r$ $rbowtie i$, and then generate new and original families of rings with these properties.

for a ring endomorphism $alpha$ and an $alpha$-derivation $delta$, we introduce a concept, so called skew $pi$-armendariz ring, that is a generalization of both $pi$-armendariz rings, and $(alpha,delta)$-compatible skew armendariz rings. we first observe the basic properties of skew $pi$-armendariz rings, and extend the class of skew $pi$-armendariz rings through various ring extensions. we nex...
