Length Four Polynomial Automorphisms

We study the structure of length four polynomial automorphisms of R[X, Y] when R is a unique factorization domain. The results from this study are used to prove that, if SL _m (R[X ₁, X ₂,…, X _n ]) = E _m (R[X ₁, X ₂,…, X _n ]) for all n, m ≥ 0, then all length four polynomial automorphisms of R[X, Y] that are commutators are stably tame.     

Automorphisms for Skew PBW Extensions and Skew Quantum Polynomial Rings

In this work, I study the automorphisms of skew PBW extensions and skew quantum polynomials. I use Artamonov's works as reference for getting the principal results about automorphisms for generic skew PBW extensions and generic skew quantum polynomials. In general, if I have an endomorphism on a generic skew PBW extension and there are some x _i , x _j , x _u such that the endomorphism is not zero on these elements and the principal coefficients are invertible, then endomorphisms act over x _i as a _i x _i for some a _i in the ring of coefficients. Of course, this is valid for quantum polynomial rings, with r = 0, as such Artamonov shows in his work. We use this result for giving some more general results for skew PBW extensions, using filtred-graded techniques. Finally, I use localization to characterize some class the endomorphisms and automorphisms for skew PBW extensions and skew quantum polynomials over Ore domains.     

Radicals of Skew Polynomial and Skew Laurent Polynomial Rings Over Skew Armendariz Rings

In this note we study radicals of skew polynomial ring R[x; α] and skew Laurent polynomial ring R[x, x ^?1; α], for a skew-Armendariz ring R. In particular, among the other results, we show that for an skew-Armendariz ring R, J(R[x; α]) = N ₀(R[x; α]) = Ni?_*(R)[x; α] and J(R[x, x ^?1; α]) = N ₀(R[x, x ^?1; α]) = Ni?_*(R)[x, x ^?1; α].     

Coordinates of R[x,y]: Constructions and Classifications

Let R be a PID. We construct and classify all coordinates of R[x, y] of the form p ₂ y + Q ₂(p ₁ x + Q ₁(y)) with p ₁, p ₂ ∈ qt(R) and Q ₁, Q ₂ ∈ qt(R)[y]. From this construction (with R = K[z]) we obtain nontame automorphisms σ of K[x, y, z] (where K is a field of characteristic 0) such that the subgroup generated by σ and the affine automorphisms contains all tame automorphisms.     

On Radicals with Amitsur Property

Abstract

A radical γ has the Amitsur property, if γ(A[x]) = (γ(A[x]) ∩ A)[x] for every ring A. To any radical γ with Amitsur property we construct the smallest radical γ ^x which coincides with γ on polynomial rings. Distinct special radicals with Amitsur property are given which coincide on simple rings and on polynomial rings, answering thus a stronger version of M. Ferrero's problem. Radicals γ with Amitsur property are characterized which satisfy A[x, y] ∈ γ whenever A[x] ∈ γ.     

Radicals of Ore Extension of Skew Armendariz Rings

Let R be a ring with an endomorphism α and an α-derivation δ. In this article, for a skew-Armendariz ring R we study some properties of skew polynomial ring R[x; α, δ]. In particular, among other results, we show that for an (α, δ)-compatible skew-Armendariz ring R, γ(R[x; α, δ]) = γ(R)[x; α, δ] = Ni?_*(R)[x; α, δ], where γ is a radical in the class of radicals which includes the Wedderburn, lower nil, Levitzky, and upper nil radicals. We also show that several properties, including the symmetric, reversible, ZC_n, zip, and 2-primal property, transfer between R and the skew polynomial ring R[x; α, δ], in case R is (α, δ)-compatible skew-Armendariz. As a consequence we extend and unify several known results.     

Integer-Valued Polynomial Rings,t-Closure,and Associated Primes

Given an integral domain D with quotient field K, the ring of integer-valued polynomials on D is the subring {f(X) ∈ K[X]: f(D) ? D} of the polynomial ring K[X]. Using the tools of t-closure and associated primes, we generalize some known results on integer-valued polynomial rings over Krull domains, Prüfer v-multiplication domains, and Mori domains.     

On the Invariant Fields and Rings of Some Groups of Polynomial Automorphisms

Abstract

We consider the group G of C-automorphisms of C(x, y) (resp. C[x, y]) generated by s, t such that t(x) = y, t(y) = x and s(x) = x, s(y) = ? y + u(x) where u ∈ C[x] is of degree k ≥ 2. Using Galois's theory, we show that the invariant field and the invariant algebra of G are equal to C.     

Free Pairs of Bicyclic Units in the Integral Group Ring of the Dihedral Group

Hirano studied the quasi-Armendariz property of rings, and then this concept was generalized by some authors, defining quasi-Armendariz property for skew polynomial rings and monoid rings. In this article, we consider unified approach to the quasi-Armendariz property of skew power series rings and skew polynomial rings by considering the quasi-Armendariz condition in mixed extension ring [R; I][x; σ], introducing the concept of so-called (σ, I)-quasi Armendariz ring, where R is an associative ring equipped with an endomorphism σ and I is an σ-stable ideal of R. We study the ring-theoretical properties of (σ, I)-quasi Armendariz rings, and we obtain various necessary or sufficient conditions for a ring to be (σ, I)-quasi Armendariz. Constructing various examples, we classify how the (σ, I)-quasi Armendariz property behaves under various ring extensions. Furthermore, we show that a number of interesting properties of an (σ, I)-quasi Armendariz ring R such as reflexive and quasi-Baer property transfer to its mixed extension ring and vice versa. In this way, we extend the well-known results about quasi-Armendariz property in ordinary polynomial rings and skew polynomial rings for this class of mixed extensions. We pay also a particular attention to quasi-Gaussian rings.     

On Skew Power Serieswise Armendariz Rings

For a ring endomorphism α, we introduce and investigate SPA-rings which are a generalization of α-rigid rings and determine the radicals of the skew polynomial rings R[x; α], R[x, x ^?1; α] and the skew power series rings R[[x; α]], R[[x, x ^?1; α]], in terms of those of R. We prove that several properties transfer between R and the extensions, in case R is an SPA-ring. We will construct various types of nonreduced SPA-rings and show SPA is a strictly stronger condition than α-rigid.     

On Rings Having McCoy-Like Conditions

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we study the behavior of the couniform (or dual Goldie) dimension of a module under various polynomial extensions. For a ring automorphism σ ∈ Aut(R), we use the notion of a σ-compatible module M _R to obtain results on the couniform dimension of the polynomial modules M[x], M[x ^?1], and M[x, x ^?1] over suitable skew extension rings.     

F[x,y] as a Dialgebra and a Leibniz Algebra

In this article, we define a new associative dialgebra over a polynomial algebra F[x, y] with two indeterminates x and y. Left derivations, right derivations, derivations, and automorphisms of F[x, y] as associative dialgebra are determined. Meanwhile, we also determine all homogeneous derivations of F[x, y] as ?-graded Leibniz algebra, and automorphisms of Leibniz algebra F[x, y] preserving the standard filtration.     

Ore Extensions of Ore Domains

Let R be a right Ore domain and φ a derivation or an automorphism of R. We determine the right Martindale quotient ring of the Ore extension R[t; φ] (Theorem 1.1). As an attempt to generalize both the Weyl algebra and the quantum plane, we apply this to rings R such that k[x] ? R ? k(x), where k is a field and x is a commuting variable. The Martindale Quotient quotient ring of R[t; φ] and its automorphisms are computed. In this way, we obtain a family of non-isomorphic infinite dimensional simple domains with all their automorphisms explicitly described.     

Coordinates and automorphisms of polynomial and free associative algebras of rank three

We study z-automorphisms of the polynomial algebra K[x, y, z] and the free associative algebra K 〈x, y, z〉 over a field K, i.e., automorphisms that fix the variable z. We survey some recent results on such automorphisms and on the corresponding coordinates. For K 〈x, y, z〉 we include also results about the structure of the z-tame automorphisms and algorithms that recognize z-tame automorphisms and z-tame coordinates.      

Twisted Automorphisms and Twisted Right Gyrogroups

In this paper we make an attempt to study right loops (S, o) in which, for each y ∈ S, the map σ _y from the inner mapping group G _S of (S, o) to itself given by σ _y (h)(x)o h(y) = h(xoy), x ∈ S, h ∈ G _S is a homomorphism. The concept of twisted automorphisms of a right loop and also the concept of twisted right gyrogroup appears naturally and it turns out that the study is almost equivalent to the study of twisted automorphisms and a twisted right gyrogroup. We also study relationship between twisted gyrotransversals and twisted subgroups.     

Injective Hulls of Simple Modules over Differential Operator Rings

We study injective hulls of simple modules over differential operator rings R[θ; d], providing necessary conditions under which these modules are locally Artinian. As a consequence, we characterize Ore extensions of S = K[x][θ; σ, d] for σ a K-linear automorphism and d a K-linear σ-derivation of K[x] such that injective hulls of simple S-modules are locally Artinian.
