Structure of A*-Fibrations over One-Dimensional Seminormal Semilocal Domains

In this paper we give a structure theorem for an A*-fibration over a one-dimensional noetherian seminormal semilocal domain and show that, in this situation, any A*-fibration whose spectrum occurs as an affine open subscheme of the spectrum of an A¹-fibration (equivalently, an affine line A¹) is actually A*. The structure theorem provides examples of A*-fibrations over one-dimensional noetherian seminormal semilocal domains whose spectra are not affine open subschemes of any affine line A¹ over the base ring. We also construct examples of nontrivial A*-fibrations over one-dimensional noetherian non-seminormal local domains whose spectra are open subschemes of A¹-fibrations over the base ring.     

Local Morphisms and Modules with a Semilocal Endomorphism Ring

We study local morphisms in the setting of general noncommutative rings. In particular, we apply local morphisms to study endomorphism rings of modules. We use our constructions to determine classes of modules with semilocal endomorphism rings. For instance, we prove that every finitely presented right module over a semilocal ring has a semilocal endomorphism ring.Alberto Facchini was partially supported by Gruppo Nazionale Strutture Algebriche e Geometriche e loro Applicazioni of Istituto Nazionale di Alta Matematica, Italy, and by Università di Padova (Progetto di Ateneo CDPA048343 “Decomposition and tilting theory in modules, derived and cluster categories”).Dolors Herbera was partially supported by the DGI and the European Regional Development Fund, jointly, through Project BFM2002-01390, and by the Comissionat per Universitats i Recerca of the Generalitat de Catalunya.     

On Extensions of Semilocal Prüfer Domains

One of the most important results of Chevalley's extension theorem states that every valuation domain has at least one extension to every extension field of its quotient field. We state a generalization of this result for Prüfer domains with any finite number of maximal ideals. Then we investigate extensions of semilocal Prüfer domains in algebraic field extensions. In particular, we find an upper bound for the cardinality of extensions of a semilocal Prüfer domain. Moreover, we show that any two extensions of a semilocal Prüfer domain are incomparable (by inclusion) in an algebraic extension of fields.     

A Class of Auslander-Regular Macaulay Rings

Abstract

For a (left and right) noetherian semilocal ring R we analyse a regularity concept (called weak regularity) based on the equation gld R = dim R. Examples are regular Cohen-Macaulay orders over a regular local ring, localized enveloping algebras of finite dimensional Lie algebras, and the regular rings classified in Rump (2001b). We prove that weakly regular rings are Auslander-regular and Macaulay.     

Artinian Rings Characterized by Direct Sums of CS Modules

Abstract

In this note, we show that the following are equivalent for a ring R for which the socle or the injective hull of R _R is finitely generated: (i) The direct sum of any two CS right R-modules is again CS; (ii) R is right Artinian and every uniform right R-module has composition length at most two. Next we give partial answers to a question of Huynh whether a right countably Σ-CS ring which either is semilocal or has finite Goldie dimension is right Σ-CS. We give characterizations, in terms of radicals, of when such rings are right Σ-CS. In particular, for the semilocal case, Huynh's question is reduced to whether rad(Z ₂(R _R )) is Σ-CS or Noetherian, where Z ₂(R _R ) is the second singular right ideal of R. Our results yield new characterizations of QF-rings.     

Hardy-type inequalities in arbitrary domains with finite inner radius

We prove Hardy-type inequalities in spatial domains with finite inner radius, in particular, one-dimensional L ^p -inequalities and their multidimensional analogs. The powers of the distance to the boundary of a set occur in the weight functions of spatial inequalities. It is demonstrated that the constant is sharp of the L ¹-inequalities in one-dimensional and multidimensional cases for convex domains.     

关于半局部群环

Let R be an associative ring with identity.R is said to be semilocal if R/J(R)is(semisimple)Artinian,where J(R)denotes the Jacobson radical of R.In this paper,we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the group ring RG to be semilocal,where G is a locally finite nilpotent group.     

The hermitian level of composition algebras

 The hermitian level of composition algebras with involution over a ring is studied. In particular, it is shown that the hermitian level of a composition algebra with standard involution over a semilocal ring, where two is invertible, is always a power of two when finite. Furthermore, any power of two can occur as the hermitian level of a composition algebra with non-standard involution. Some bounds are obtained for the hermitian level of a composition algebra with involution of the second kind.

A convergence analysis and applications for the Newton-Kantorovich method in K-normed spaces

We study the local and semilocal convergence of the Newton-Kantorovich method to a solution of a nonlinear operator equation on aK-normed space setting. Using more precise majorizing sequences than before we show that in the semilocal case finer error bounds can be determined on the distances involved and an at least as precise information on the location of the solution as in earlier results. In the local case we show that a larger radius of convergence can be obtained.     

Semilocal convergence of a k-step iterative process and its application for solving a special kind of conservative problems

In this paper, we analyze the semilocal convergence of k-steps Newton’s method with frozen first derivative in Banach spaces. The method reaches order of convergence k + 1. By imposing only the assumption that the Fréchet derivative satisfies the Lipschitz continuity, we define appropriate recurrence relations for obtaining the domains of convergence and uniqueness. We also define the accessibility regions for this iterative process in order to guarantee the semilocal convergence and perform a complete study of their efficiency. Our final aim is to apply these theoretical results to solve a special kind of conservative systems.     

A Note on rings of finite rank

The rank rk(R) of a ring R is the supremum of minimal cardinalities of generating sets of I as I ranges over ideals of R. Matsuda and Matson showed that every n∈?⁺ (the positive integers) occurs as the rank of some ring R. Motivated by the result of Cohen and Gilmer that a ring of finite rank has Krull dimension 0 or 1, we give four different constructions of rings of rank n (for all n∈?⁺). Two constructions use one-dimensional domains. Our third construction uses Artinian rings (dimension zero), and our last construction uses polynomial rings over local Artinian rings (dimension one, irreducible, not a domain).     

Prime Ideals in Birational Extensions of Two-Dimensional Power Series Rings

In this article we consider simple birational extensions of power series rings in one variable over one-dimensional Noetherian domains having infinitely many maximal ideals. For these rings we describe the partially ordered sets that arise as prime spectra. We characterize the prime spectra in the case that the coefficient rings are countable Dedekind domains. The prime spectra over Dedekind domains are the same as the prime spectra that arise for simple birational extensions of power series rings over the integers and the same as the prime spectra of simple birational extensions of k[[x]][z], where k is a countable field and x and z are indeterminates.     

Radically Perfect Prime Ideals in Polynomial Rings Over Prüfer and Pullback Rings

In this article, we study the notion of radical perfectness in Prüfer and classical pullbacks issued from valuation domains. We answer positively a question by Erdogdu of whether a domain R such that every prime ideal of the polynomial ring R[X] is radically perfect is one-dimensional. Particularly, we prove that Prüfer and pseudo-valuation domains R over which every prime ideal of the polynomial ring R[X] is radically perfect are one-dimensional domains. Moreover, the class group of such a Prüfer domain is torsion.     

Completely Arithmetical Rings

We introduce a type of commutative ring R in which its ideal lattice has a strong form of the distributive property. We show that if R is reduced, then it is a semilocal von Neumann regular ring. In this case, we show that the K ₁ group of this ring has a relatively simple structure.     

Two Results on Modules whose Endomorphism Ring is Semilocal

The aim of this paper is twofold. On the one hand, we show that the dual Goldie dimension codim(End(M _R )) of the endomorphism ring End(M _R ) of a module M _R can be used as a measure of the dimension of the module M _R . On the other hand, we prove under suitable hypotheses the validity of the Krull–Schmidt Theorem for infinite direct sums of modules with homogeneous semilocal endomorphism rings.

Note on the cubic decreasing region of the Chebyshev method

In this paper we reduce the two-dimensional cubic decreasing region considered in Hernandez and Salanova (2000) [1], [2] into one-dimensional region or interval for the Chebyshev method. It means that we find a simple sufficient condition for the semilocal convergence of the method.     

I-Radicals,Their Lattices,and Some Classes of Rings

We describe some I-radicals in the categories of modules over semilocal rings. We give a characterization of rings over which the set of I-radicals coincides with the set of hereditary idempotent radicals. We prove that the lattices of I-radicals in the categories of modules over Morita-equivalent rings are isomorphic.     

A uniparametric family of iterative processes for solving nondifferentiable equations

In this work we study a class of secant-like iterations for solving nonlinear equations in Banach spaces. We consider a condition for divided differences which generalizes the usual ones, i.e., Lipschitz and Hölder continuous conditions. A semilocal convergence result is obtained for nondifferentiable operators. For that, we use a technique based on a new system of recurrence relations to obtain domains of existence and uniqueness of the solution. Finally, we apply our results to the numerical solution of several examples.
