The purpose of the following is to try to make sense of the stereographic projection in a non-commutative setup. To this end, we consider the open unit ball of a ternary ring of operators, which naturally comes equipped with a non-commutative version of a hyperbolic metric and ask for a manifold onto which the open unit ball can be mapped so that one might think of this situation as providing a...

The family of algebraic graphs A(n;K) defined over the finite commutative ring K were used for the design of different multivariate cryptographical algorithms (private and public keys, key exchange protocols). The encryption map corresponds to a special walk on this graph. We expand the class of encryption maps via the use of an automorphism group of A(n,K). In the case of characteristic 2 the ...

Let k be a commutative ring, A a commutative k-algebra and D the filtered ring of k-linear differential operators of A. We prove that: (1) The graded ring grD admits a canonical embedding θ into the graded dual of the symmetric algebra of the module ΩA/k of differentials of A over k, which has a canonical divided power structure. (2) There is a canonical morphism θ from the divided power algebr...

The space of marked commutative rings on n given generators is a compact metrizable space. We compute the Cantor-Bendixson rank of any member of this space. For instance, the Cantor-Bendixson rank of the free commutative ring on n generators is ωn, where ω is the smallest infinite ordinal. More generally, we work in the space of finitely generated modules over a given commutative ring.

It is proved that every commutative ring whose RD-injective modules are Σ-RD-injective is the product of a pure semi-simple ring and a finite ring. A complete characterization of commutative rings for which each artinian (respectively simple) module is RD-injective, is given. These results can be obtained by using the properties of RD-flat modules and RD-coflat modules which are respectively th...

We find bounds for the number of idempotents in a ring matrices over an arbitrary finite commutative ring. Using these results, we bound on finit...

Let (R,m) denote an n-dimensional Gorenstein ring. For an ideal I ⊂ R of height c we are interested in the endomorphism ring B = HomR(H c I (R),H c I (R)). It turns out that B is a commutative ring. In the case of (R, m) a regular local ring containing a field B is a Cohen-Macaulay ring. Its properties are related to the highest Lyubeznik number l = dimk Ext d R(k, H c I (R)). In particular R ≃...

We show that the existence of a nontrivial proper ideal in a commutative ring with identity which is not a eld is equivalent to WKL0 over RCA0, and that the existence of a nontrivial proper nitely generated ideal in a commutative ring with identity which is not a eld is equivalent to ACA0 over RCA0. We also prove that there are computable commutative rings with identity where the nilradical is ...

In this note, we show that any epimorphism originating at a von Neumann regular ring (not necessary commutative) is universal localization. As an application, prove the Telescope Conjecture holds for unbounded derived categories of rings commutative).

In this paper we focus on a special class of commutative local‎ ‎rings called SPAP-rings and study the relationship between this‎ ‎class and other classes of rings‎. ‎We characterize the structure of‎ ‎modules and especially‎, ‎the prime submodules of free modules over‎ ‎an SPAP-ring and derive some basic properties‎. ‎Then we answer the‎ ‎question of Lam and Reyes about strongly Oka ideals fam...
