Notes on Jordan (σ, τ)*-derivations and Jordan triple (σ, τ)*-derivations

Let R be a 2-torsion free semiprime *-ring, σ, τ two epimorphisms of R and f, d : R → R two additive mappings. In this paper we prove the following results: (i) d is a Jordan (σ, τ)*-derivation if and only if d is a Jordan triple (σ, τ)*-derivation. (ii) f is a generalized Jordan (σ, τ)*-derivation if and only if f is a generalized Jordan triple (σ, τ)*-derivation.     

Jordan τ-derivations of Prime Rings

Let R be a prime ring which is not commutative, with maximal symmetric ring of quotients Q _ms (R), and let τ be an anti-automorphism of R. An additive map δ: R → Q _ms (R) is called a Jordan τ-derivation if δ(x ²) = δ(x)x ^τ + xδ(x) for all x ∈ R. A Jordan τ-derivation of R is called X-inner if it is of the form x → ax ^τ ? xa for x ∈ R, where a ∈ Q _ms (R). It is proved that any Jordan τ-derivation of R is X-inner if either R is not a GPI-ring or R is a PI-ring except when charR = 2 and dim  _C RC = 4, where C is the extended centroid of R.     

A basic functional identity with applications to Jordan σ-biderivations

Let R be a noncommutative prime ring with extended centroid C and maximal left ring of quotients Q_ml(R). The aim of the paper is to study a basic functional identity concerning bi-additive maps on R. Precisely, it is proved that a bi-additive map B:R×R→Q_ml(R) satisfying [B(x,y),[x,y]] = 0 for all x,y∈R must be of the form (x,y)?λ[x,y]+μ(x,y) for x,y∈R, where λ∈C and μ:R×R→C is a bi-additive map. As applications to the theorem, Jordan σ-biderivations with σ an epimorphism and additive commuting maps on noncommutative Lie ideals of R are characterized.     

q-Generalizations of Mortenson’s identities and further identities

By means of partial fraction decomposition, we give simple proofs of Mortenson’s identities first. Then, inspired by them, we derive their q-generalizations and explore further identities of similar type.     

Finite groups with given σ-embedded and σ-n-embedded subgroups

Let G be a finite group and σ = {σ _i |i∈I} be a partition of the set of all primes P. A set H of subgroups of G is said to be a complete Hall σ-set of G if every non-identity member of H is a Hall σ _i -subgroup of G and H contains exactly one Hall σ _i -subgroup of G for every σ _i ∈ σ(G). A subgroup H is said to be σ-permutable if G possesses a complete Hall σ-set H such that HA ^x = A ^x H for all A ∈ H and all x ∈ G. Let H be a subgroup of G. Then we say that: (1) H is σ-embedded in G if there exists a σ-permutable subgroup T of G such that HT = H ^σG and H ∩ T ≤ H _σG , where H _σG is the subgroup of H generated by all those subgroups of H which are σ-permutable in G, and H ^σG is the σ-permutable closure of H, that is, the intersection of all σ-permutable subgroups of G containing H. (2) H is σ-n-embedded in G if there exists a normal subgroup T of G such that HT = H ^G and H ∩ T ≤ H _σG . In this paper, we study the properties of the new embedding subgroups and use them to determine the structure of finite groups.

Metric and Complete Metric σ-Frames

A -frame is a lattice in which countable joins exist and binary meets distribute over countable joins. In this paper, the category MFrm, of metric -frames, is introduced, and it is shown to be equivalent to the category MLFrm _u, of metric Lindelöf frames.Finally, it is shown that the complete metric -frames are exactly the cozero parts of complete metric Lindelöf frames.

Arc spaces and the Rogers–Ramanujan identities

Arc spaces have been introduced in algebraic geometry as a tool to study singularities but they show strong connections with combinatorics as well. Exploiting these relations, we obtain a new approach to the classical Rogers–Ramanujan Identities. The linking object is the Hilbert–Poincaré series of the arc space over a point of the base variety. In the case of the double point, this is precisely the generating series for the integer partitions without equal or consecutive parts.
