We explain how rank two Frobenius extensions of commutative rings lead to link homology theories and discuss relations between these theories, Bar-Natan theories, equivariant cohomology and the Rasmussen invariant. AMS Subject Classification: 57M27 Frobenius systems. Suppose ι : R −→ A is an inclusion of commutative rings, and ι(1) = 1. The restriction functor Res : A−mod −→ R−mod has left and ...

This article addresses some foundational issues that arise in the study of linear codes defined over finite rings. Linear coding theory is particularly well-behaved over finite Frobenius rings. This follows from the fact that the character module of a finite ring is free if and only if the ring is Frobenius.

We show that any quasi-Gorenstein deformation of a 3-dimensional Buchsbaum local ring with I-invariant 1 admits maximal Cohen-Macaulay module, provided it is quotient Gorenstein ring. Such class rings includes two instances unique factorization domains constructed by Marcel-Schenzel and Imtiaz-Schenzel, respectively. Apart from this result, motivated the small conjecture in prime characteristic...

The notion of FTF ring (see Definition 1.1 or Proposition 1.2) captures homological and finiteness properties shared by several classes of rings. Thus coherent rings with left flat-dominant dimension ≥ 1 [3, Corolario 2.2.11] or rings having quasi-Frobenius two-sided maximal quotient ring [7, Proposition 3.6; 3, Teorema 2.3.10] are examples of FTF rings. Moreover, FTF ring and QF-3 ring are rel...

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...

It is shown that if the ring of constants of a restricted differential Lie algebra with a quasi-Frobenius inner part satisfies a polynomial identity (PI) then the original prime ring has a generalized polynomial identity (GPI). If additionally the ring of constants is semiprime then the original ring is PI. The case of a non-quasi-Frobenius inner part is also considered.
