On the instability of elliptic traveling wave solutions of the modified Camassa–Holm equation

This paper is concerned with the orbital instability for a specific class of periodic traveling wave solutions with the mean zero property and large spatial period related to the modified Camassa–Holm equation. These solutions, called snoidal waves, are written in terms of the Jacobi elliptic functions. To prove our result we use the abstract method of Grillakis, Shatah and Strauss [23], the Floquet theory for periodic eigenvalue problems and the n-gaps potentials theory of Dubrovin, Matveev and Novikov [19].     

Tensor products of n-complete algebras

If A and B are n- and m-representation finite k-algebras, then their tensor product $\mathrm{\Lambda }=A{?}_{k}B$ is not in general $(n+m)$-representation finite. However, we prove that if A and B are acyclic and satisfy the weaker assumption of n- and m-completeness, then Λ is $(n+m)$-complete. This mirrors the fact that taking higher Auslander algebra does not preserve d-representation finiteness in general, but it does preserve d-completeness. As a corollary, we get the necessary condition for Λ to be $(n+m)$-representation finite which was found by Herschend and Iyama by using a certain twisted fractionally Calabi–Yau property.     

Gorenstein projective bimodules via monomorphism categories and filtration categories

We generalize the monomorphism category from quiver (with monomial relations) to arbitrary finite dimensional algebras by a homological definition. Given two finite dimension algebras A and B, we use the special monomorphism category $\mathsf{Mon}(B,A\text{-}\mathsf{Gproj})$ to describe some Gorenstein projective bimodules over the tensor product of A and B. If one of the two algebras is Gorenstein, we give a sufficient and necessary condition for $\mathsf{Mon}(B,A\text{-}\mathsf{Gproj})$ being the category of all Gorenstein projective bimodules. In addition, if both A and B are Gorenstein, we can describe the category of all Gorenstein projective bimodules via filtration categories. Similarly, in this case, we get the same result for infinitely generated Gorenstein projective bimodules.     

Isomorphism problems for Hopf–Galois structures on separable field extensions

Let $L/K$ be a finite separable extension of fields whose Galois closure $E/K$ has Galois group G. Greither and Pareigis use Galois descent to show that a Hopf algebra giving a Hopf–Galois structure on $L/K$ has the form $E{[N]}^G$ for some group N of order $[L:K]$. We formulate criteria for two such Hopf algebras to be isomorphic as Hopf algebras, and provide a variety of examples. In the case that the Hopf algebras in question are commutative, we also determine criteria for them to be isomorphic as K-algebras. By applying our results, we complete a detailed analysis of the distinct Hopf algebras and K-algebras that appear in the classification of Hopf–Galois structures on a cyclic extension of degree $p^n$, for p an odd prime number.     

The classification of 3-dimensional noetherian cubic Calabi–Yau algebras

It is known that every 3-dimensional noetherian Calabi–Yau algebra generated in degree 1 is isomorphic to a Jacobian algebra of a superpotential. Recently, S.P. Smith and the first author classified all superpotentials whose Jacobian algebras are 3-dimensional noetherian quadratic Calabi–Yau algebras. The main result of this paper is to classify all superpotentials whose Jacobian algebras are 3-dimensional noetherian cubic Calabi–Yau algebras. As an application, we show that if S is a 3-dimensional noetherian cubic Calabi–Yau algebra and σ is a graded algebra automorphism of S, then the homological determinant of σ can be calculated by the formula $\mathrm{hdet}\sigma ={(\det \sigma )}^2$ with one exception.     

Algebras having bases that consist solely of strongly regular elements

“Locally invertible” algebras, those algebras which have a basis consisting solely of strongly regular elements, are introduced as a generalization of “invertible algebras,” that is, algebras which have a basis consisting solely of units. While this new family properly contains the family of (necessarily unital) invertible algebras, its definition does not assume the existence of a multiplicative identity. Because of this, we consider both unital and non-unital examples of locally invertible algebras. In particular, we show that under a mild condition on the basis of a not necessarily unital R-algebra A, the R-algebras $M_n(A)$ of finite matrix rings over the R-algebra A. Furthermore, many infinite matrix algebras are also locally invertible, but not all. Also it is shown that all semiperfect D-algebras over a division ring D are locally invertible.     

Universal deformation rings and self-injective Nakayama algebras

Let k be a field and let Λ be an indecomposable finite dimensional k-algebra such that there is a stable equivalence of Morita type between Λ and a self-injective split basic Nakayama algebra over k. We show that every indecomposable finitely generated Λ-module V has a universal deformation ring $R(\mathrm{\Lambda },V)$ and we describe $R(\mathrm{\Lambda },V)$ explicitly as a quotient ring of a power series ring over k in finitely many variables. This result applies in particular to Brauer tree algebras, and hence to p-modular blocks of finite groups with cyclic defect groups.     

Frobenius–Perron theory of modified ADE bound quiver algebras

The Frobenius–Perron dimension for an abelian category was recently introduced in [5]. We apply this theory to the category of representations of the finite-dimensional radical square zero algebras associated to certain modified ADE graphs. In particular, we take an ADE quiver with arrows in a certain orientation and an arbitrary number of loops at each vertex. We show that the Frobenius–Perron dimension of this category is equal to the maximum number of loops at a vertex. Along the way, we introduce a result which can be applied in general to calculate the Frobenius–Perron dimension of a radical square zero bound quiver algebra. We use this result to introduce a family of abelian categories which produce arbitrarily large irrational Frobenius–Perron dimensions.     

The picard group of the variety of plane cuspidal cubics of ℙ3

We give a compactification of the varietyU of non-degenerate plane cuspidal cubics of ?³. We construct this compactification by means of the projective bundleX of a suitable vector bundleE. We describe the intersection ring ofX and, as a consequence, we obtain the intersection numbers ofU that satisfy 10 conditions of the following kinds:ρ, that the plane determined by the cuspidal cubic go through a point;c, that the cusp be on a plane;q, that the cuspidal tangent intersect a line;μ, that the cuspidal cubic intersect a line. Moreover, we prove that the Picard group of the varietyU is a product of two infinite cyclic groups generated byρ andc?q.     

Annihilator condition does not pass to polynomials and power series

In this paper we construct a ring A which has annihilator condition (a.c.) and we show that neither $A[x]$ nor $A[[x]]$ has this property. This answers in negative a question asked by Hong, Kim, Lee and Nielsen. We also show that there is an algebra A which does not have annihilator condition while both $A[x]$ and $A[[x]]$ have this property.
