Real Closed Valuation Rings

The real closed valuation rings, i.e., convex subrings of real closed fields, form a proper subclass of the class of real closed domains. It is shown how one can recognize whether a real closed domain is a valuation ring. This leads to a characterization of the totally ordered domains whose real closure is a valuation ring. Real closures of totally ordered factor rings of coordinate rings of real algebraic varieties are very frequently valuation rings. In particular, the real closure of the coordinate ring of a curve is an SV-ring (i.e., the factor rings modulo prime ideals are valuation rings). Real closed valuation rings play a role in the definition of real closed rings, as well as in the construction of real closures of rings and porings. They can also be used for the study of univariate differentiable semi-algebraic functions. This leads to the notion of differentiablility of semi-algebraic functions along half branches of curves.     

Convex subrings of partially ordered rings

The relationship between a poring and a convex subring has been studied most successfully for porings with bounded inversion. The best conceivable results are known for real closed rings. The present paper focuses on the connections between the prime spectra and between the real spectra of a poring and a convex subring. Examples show that for arbitrary porings one may not expect a very close relationship. But with the assumption of bounded inversion or spectral compatibility the results are similar to those for real closed rings (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

Completions of Convexly Ordered Valuation Rings

We prove that every convexly ordered valuation ring has a unique completion as a uniform space, which furthermore is a convexly ordered valuation ring. In addition, we give a model theoretic characterisation of complete convexly ordered valuation rings, and give a necessary and sufficient condition for the completion of a convexly ordered valuation ring to be a real closed ring.

Hilbert's 17th Problem for Real Closed Rings

We recall the characterisation of positive definite polynomial functions over a real closed ring due to Dickmann, and give a new proof of this result, based upon ideas of Abraham Robinson. In addition we isolate the class of convexly ordered valuation rings for which this characterisation holds. Mathematics Subject Classification: 03C60, 13L05, 12D15.     

Rings whose nilpotents form a multiplicative set

Nilpotents in Armendariz and abelian π-regular rings are multiplicatively closed. However, this fact need not hold in many kinds of rings. This article concerns a class of rings whose nilpotents are closed under multiplication. Rings contained in this class are said to be nilpotent-closed, and the structure of nilpotent-closed rings is investigated in relation with various situations which happen ordinarily in the study of noncommutative ring theory. In the procedure, various sorts of rings are investigated, so that they are nilpotent-closed. We also study familiar conditions under which nilpotents in nilpotent-closed rings form a subring.

On existence of tame Harrison map

We present here two new criteria for existence of a tame Harrison map of two formally real algebraic function fields over a fixed real closed field of constants. The first criterion (c.f. Theorem 2.5) shows that a square class group isomorphism is a tame Harrison map if it induces an isomorphism of the coproduct rings of residue Witt rings. The other result (c.f. Proposition 3.5) associates a tame Harrison map to an integral quaternion-symbol equivalence.      

The Krull–Gabriel Dimension of a Serial Ring

Abstract

We prove that every serial ring R has the isolation property: every isolated point in any theory of modules over R is isolated by a minimal pair. Using this we calculate the Krull–Gabriel dimension of the module category over serial rings. For instance, we show that this dimension cannot be equal to 1.     

The telescope conjecture for hereditary rings via Ext-orthogonal pairs

For the module category of a hereditary ring, the Ext-orthogonal pairs of subcategories are studied. For each Ext-orthogonal pair that is generated by a single module, a 5-term exact sequence is constructed. The pairs of finite type are characterized and two consequences for the class of hereditary rings are established: homological epimorphisms and universal localizations coincide, and the telescope conjecture for the derived category holds true. However, we present examples showing that neither of these two statements is true in general for rings of global dimension 2.

Rings whose singular ideals are nil

Abstract

It is well known that when a ring R satisfies ACC on right annihilators of elements, then the right singular ideal of R is nil, in this case, we say R is right nil-singular. Many classes of rings whose singular ideals are nil, but do not satisfy the ACC on right annihilators, are presented and the behavior of them is investigated with respect to various constructions, in particular skew polynomial rings and triangular matrix rings. The class of right nil-singular rings contains π-regular rings and is closed under direct sums. Examples are provided to explain and delimit our results.     

On Weakly P.P. Rings

We introduce, in this paper, the right weakly p.p. rings as the generalization of right p.p. rings. It is shown that many properties of the right p.p. rings can be extended onto the right weakly p.p. rings. Relative examples are constructed. As applications, we also characterize the regular rings and the semisimple rings in terms of the right weakly p.p. rings.     

Homology of multiplicative Lie rings

Two homology theories of multiplicative Lie rings are constructed, studied and compared with the usual homology theories of groups and Lie rings. Central extensions of multiplicative Lie rings are introduced. It is shown that the Steinberg multiplicative Lie ring of a ring is the direct product of the Steinberg group (viewed as a multiplicative Lie ring under the commutator bracket) and the Steinberg Lie ring.     

Elementary equivalence of some rings of definable functions

We characterize elementary equivalences and inclusions between von Neumann regular real closed rings in terms of their boolean algebras of idempotents, and prove that their theories are always decidable. We then show that, under some hypotheses, the map sending an L-structure R to the L-structure of definable functions from R ⁿ to R preserves elementary inclusions and equivalences and gives a structure with a decidable theory whenever R is decidable. We briefly consider structures of definable functions satisfying an extra condition such as continuity.      

Refinement monoids with weak comparability and applications to regular rings and -algebras

We prove a cancellation theorem for simple refinement monoids satisfying the weak comparability condition, first introduced by K.C. O'Meara in the context of von Neumann regular rings. This result is then applied to von Neumann regular rings and -algebras of real rank zero via the monoid of isomorphism classes of finitely generated projective modules.
