Introduction. Fix a base field k. The quantized coordinate ring of n×n matrices over k, denoted by q(Mn(k)), is a deformation of the classical coordinate ring of n×n matrices, (Mn(k)). As such, it is a k-algebra generated by n2 indeterminates Xij , for 1 ≤ i,j ≤ n, subject to relations which we state in (1.1). Here, q is a nonzero element of the field k. When q = 1, we recover (Mn(k)), which is...

RESULTS ON N-ABSORBING IDEALS OF COMMUTATIVE RINGS by Alison Elaine Becker The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2015 Under the Supervision of Dr. Allen Bell Let R be a commutative ring with 1 6= 0. In his paper On 2-absorbing ideals of commutative rings, Ayman Badawi introduces a generalization of prime ideals called 2-absorbing ideals, and this idea is further generalized in a paper by Ander...

In the field of speech adaptability to environmental conditions, the intelligibility of hyper auditory and visual speech versus normal speech was investigated. The « Lombard » reflex was used to obtain auditory sequences produced with vocal effort for a set of French /b, d, g, p, t, k/ plosives. Analysis of plosive identifications showed an improvement with the auditory hyper condition in the p...

The foldness of PI( , ⊆, ⊆)BCK -ideals and PI( , , )BCK -ideals is considered. The fuzzy version of such notions is also discussed.

Let R be a commutative ring, V a nitely generated free R-module and G leGL R (V) a nite group acting naturally on the graded symmetric algebra A = S(V). Let (V; G) denote the minimal number m, such that the ring A G of inva riants can be generated by nitely many elements of degree at most m. For G = n and V (n; k), the k-fold direct sum of the natural permutat ion module, one knows that (V (n; ...

A signed graph is a graph whose edges are given ±1 weights. In such a graph, the sign of a cycle is the product of the signs of its edges. A signed graph is called balanced if its adjacency matrix is similar to the adjacency matrix of an unsigned graph via conjugation by a diagonal ±1 matrix. For a signed graph Σ on n vertices, its exterior kth power, where k = 1, . . . , n−1, is a graph ∧k Σ w...

The concepts of (∈,∈ ∨ q)-fuzzy (implicative, positive implicative and fantastic) filters of BL-algebras are introduced and some related properties are investigated. Some characterizations of these generalized fuzzy filters are derived. In particular, we describe the relationships among ordinary fuzzy (implicative, positive implicative and fantastic) filters, (∈,∈∨q)-fuzzy (implicative, positiv...

In this article, we define a non-commutative deformation of the ”symplectic invariants” (introduced in [13]) of an algebraic hyperelliptical plane curve. The necessary condition for our definition to make sense is a Bethe ansatz. The commutative limit reduces to the symplectic invariants, i.e. algebraic geometry, and thus we define non-commutative deformations of some algebraic geometry quantit...
