Almost periodic compactifications of group extensions

Let and be groups and let be an extension of by . Given a property of group compactifications, one can ask whether there exist compactifications and of N and K such that the universal -compactification of G is canonically isomorphic to an extension of by . We prove a theorem which gives necessary and sufficient conditions for this to occur for general properties and then apply this result to the almost periodic and weakly almost periodic compactifications of G.     

On posets with isomorphic interval posets

We are interested in partially ordered sets with Int isomorphic to Int . We are going to show that they correspond to couples of binary relations on A satisfying some conditions. If is a directed partially ordered set, the only with Int isomorphic to Int are corresponding to direct decompositions of ( denotes the dual of .

Conversely, we also find the best range of to which a weight belongs, in terms of the constant. Similar problems for , and are solved using factorization.     

A Completion of \mathbb{Z} is a Field

We define various ring sequential convergences on and . We describe their properties and properties of their convergence completions. In particular, we define a convergence on by means of a nonprincipal ultrafilter on the positive prime numbers such that the underlying set of the completion is the ultraproduct of the prime finite fields Further, we show that is sequentially precompact but fails to be strongly sequentially precompact; this solves a problem posed by D. Dikranjan.     

Precovers

Let be an abstract class (closed under isomorpic copies) of left R-modules. In the first part of the paper some sufficient conditions under which is a precover class are given. The next section studies the -precovers which are -covers. In the final part the results obtained are applied to the hereditary torsion theories on the category on left R-modules. Especially, several sufficient conditions for the existence of -torsionfree and -torsionfree -injective covers are presented.     

A Canonical Directly Infinite Ring

Let be the set of nonnegative integers and the ring of integers. Let be the ring of N × N matrices over generated by the following two matrices: one obtained from the identity matrix by shifting the ones one position to the right and the other one position down. This ring plays an important role in the study of directly finite rings. Calculation of invertible and idempotent elements of yields that the subrings generated by them coincide. This subring is the sum of the ideal consisting of all matrices in with only a finite number of nonzero entries and the subring of generated by the identity matrix. Regular elements are also described. We characterize all ideals of , show that all ideals are finitely generated and that not all ideals of are principal. Some general ring theoretic properties of are also established.
