A Dedekind cut of an ordered abelian group G is a pair (X, Y) of nonempty subsets of G where Y=G−X and every member of X precedes every member of Y. A Dedekind cut (X, Y) is said to be continuous if X has a greatest member or Y has a least member, but not both; if every Dedekind cut of G is a continuous cut, G is said to be (Dedekind) continuous. The ordered abelian group R of real numbers is, ...

The subject of this thesis is the theory of nonholomorphic modular forms of non-integral weight, and its applications to arithmetical functions involving Dedekind sums and Kloosterman sums. As was discovered by Andre Weil, automorphic forms of non-integral weight correspond to invariant funtions on Metaplectic groups. We thus give an explicit description of Meptaplectic groups corresponding to ...

Let R be a Dedekind domain, G an affine flat R-group scheme, and B a flat R-algebra on which G acts. Let A → BG be an R-algebra map. Assume that A is Noetherian. We show that if the induced map K ⊗ A → (K ⊗ B)K⊗G is an isomorphism for any algebraically closed field K which is an R-algebra, then S ⊗A→ (S ⊗B)S⊗G is an isomorphism for any R-algebra S.

This talk will provide a snapshot of contemporary commutative algebra. In classical commutative algebra and algebraic number theory, the Dedekind domains are the most important class of rings. Modern commutative algebra studies numerous generalizations of the Dedekind domains in attempts to generalize results of algebraic number theory. This talk will introduce a few important generalizations o...

In the operator version of the Hahn-Banach-Kantorovich theorem, the range space Y is assumed to be Dedekind complete. Y. A. Abramovich and A. W. Wickstead improved this by assuming only the Cantor property on Y . Along the same line of reasoning, we obtained in this paper several new results of this type. We also see that assuming Cantor property on the domain spaces instead gives good results,...

The aim of this paper is to construct new Dedekind type sums. We construct generating functions of Barnes’ type multiple FrobeniusEuler numbers and polynomials. By applying Mellin transformation to these functions, we define Barnes’ type multiple l-functions, which interpolate Frobenius-Euler numbers at negative integers. By using generalizations of the Frobenius-Euler functions, we define gene...

Unlike the uniform completion, the Dedekind completion of a vector lattice is not functorial. In order to repair the lack of functoriality of Dedekind completions, we enrich the signature of vector lattices with a proximity relation, thus arriving at the category pdv of proximity Dedekind vector lattices. We prove that the Dedekind completion induces a functor from the category bav of bounded a...
