Fatou Components of Attracting Skew-Products

We investigate the existence of wandering Fatou components for polynomial skew-products in two complex variables. In 2004, the non-existence of wandering domains near a super-attracting invariant fiber was shown in Lilov (Fatou theory in two dimensions, PhD thesis, University of Michigan, 2004). In 2014, it was shown in Astorg et al. (Ann Math, arXiv:1411.1188 [math.DS], 2014) that wandering domains can exist near a parabolic invariant fiber. In Peters and Vivas (Math Z, arXiv:1408.0498, 2014), the geometrically attracting case was studied, and we continue this study here. We prove the non-existence of wandering domains for subhyperbolic attracting skew-products; this class contains the maps studied in Peters and Vivas (Math Z, arXiv:1408.0498, 2014). Using expansion properties on the Julia set in the invariant fiber, we prove bounds on the rate of escape of critical orbits in almost all fibers. Our main tool in describing these critical orbits is a possibly singular linearization map of unstable manifolds.     

Bounding Diameter of Conical Kähler Metric

In this paper we research the differential geometric and algebro-geometric properties of the noncollapsing limit in the conical continuity equation which generalize the theory in La Nave et al. in Bounding diameter of singular Kähler metric, arXiv:1503.03159v1 [23].     

Dixmier's Problem 6 for the Weyl Algebra (The Generic Type Problem)

ABSTRACT

In Dixmier (1968 Dixmier , J. ( 1968 ). Sur les algèbres de Weyl . Bull. Soc. Math. France 96 : 209 – 242 . [CSA] [Crossref] , [Google Scholar]), the author posed six problems for the Weyl algebra A ₁ over a field K of characteristic zero. Problems 3, 6, and 5 were solved respectively by Joseph (1975 Joseph , A. ( 1975 ). The Weyl algebra—semisimple and nilpotent elements . Amer. J. Math. 97 ( 3 ): 597 – 615 . [CSA] [Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]) and Bavula (2005a Bavula , V. V. ( 2005a ). Dixmier's Problem 5 for the Weyl algebra . J. Algebra 283 ( 2 ): 604 – 621 . [CSA] [CROSSREF] [Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]). Problems 1, 2, and 4 are still open. In this article a short proof is given to Dixmier's problem 6 for the ring of differential operators 𝒟 (X) on a smooth irreducible algebraic curve X. It is proven that, for a given maximal commutative subalgebra C of 𝒟 (X), (almost) all noncentral elements of it have the same type, more precisely, have exactly one of the following types: (i) strongly nilpotent; (ii) weakly nilpotent; (iii) generic; (iv) generic, except for a subset K*a + K of strongly semi-simple elements; (iv) generic, except for a subset K*a + K of weakly semi-simple elements, where K* := K\{0}. The same results are true for other popular algebras.     

Note on Conic Bundles over Henselian Discrete Valued Fields with Real Closed Residue Field

ABSTRACT

Let ? be a complete set of Sylow subgroups of a finite group G, that is, ? contains exactly one and only one Sylow p-subgroup of G for each prime p. A subgroup H of a finite group G is said to be ?-permutable if H permutes with every member of ?. The purpose of this article is to study the influence of ?-permutability of all maximal subgroups of the Sylow subgroups of the generalized Fitting subgroup of some normal subgroup of a finite group G on the structure of G. Our results improve and extend the main results of Asaad (1998 Asaad , M. ( 1998 ). On maximal subgroups of Sylow subgroups of finite groups . Comm. Algebra 26 ( 11 ): 3647 – 3652 .

On Serial Noetherian Rings

It is well known that every serial Noetherian ring satisfies the restricted minimum condition. In particular, following Warfield (1975 Warfield , R. B. ( 1975 ). Serial rings and finitely presented modules . J. Algebra 37 : 187 – 222 . [CSA] [CROSSREF] [Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]), such a ring is a direct sum of an Artinian ring and hereditary prime rings. The aim of this note is to show that every serial ring having the restricted minimum condition is Noetherian.     

Larson–Sweedler Theorem and Some Properties of Discrete Type in (G-Cograded) Multiplier Hopf Algebras

We extend the Larson–Sweedler theorem to group-cograded multiplier Hopf algebras introduced in Abd El-hafez et al. (2004 Abd El-hafez , A. T. , Delvaux , L. , Van Daele , A. ( 2004 ). Group-cograded multiplier Hopf (?-)algebra. Math. QA/0404026 . To appear in Algebras and Representation Theory . [CSA]  [Google Scholar]), by showing that a group-cograded multiplier bialgebra with finite-dimensional unital components is a group-cograded multiplier Hopf algebra if and only if it possesses a nondegenerate left cointegral. We also generalize the theory of multiplier Hopf algebras of discrete type in Van Daele and Zhang (1999 Van Daele , A. , Zhang , Y. ( 1999 ). Multiplier Hopf algebras of discrete type . J. Algebra 214 : 400 – 417 . [CSA] [CROSSREF]  [Google Scholar]) to group-cograded multiplier Hopf algebras. Our results are applicable to Hopf group-coalgebras in the sense of Turaev (2000 Turaev , V. G. ( 2000 ). Homotopy field theory in dimension 3 and crossed group-categories . Preprint GT/0005291. [CSA]  [Google Scholar]). Finally, we study regular multiplier Hopf algebras of η -discrete type.     

Monoid Valuations and Value Ordered Supervaluations

We complement two papers on supertropical valuation theory ([11 Izhakian , Z. , Knebusch , M. , Rowen , L. ( 2011 ). Supertropical semirings and supervaluations . J. Pure and Applied Alg. 215 ( 10 ): 2431 – 2463 . Preprint at arXiv:1003.1101 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]], [12 Izhakian , Z. , Knebusch , M. , Rowen , L. ( 2013 ). Dominance and transmissions in supertropical valuation theory . Commun. Algebra 41 ( 7 ): 2736 – 2782 .[Taylor &; Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]]) by providing natural examples of m-valuations (= monoid valuations), and afterwards of supervaluations and transmissions between them. These supervaluations have values in totally ordered supertropical semirings, and the transmissions discussed respect the orderings. We develop the basics of the theory of such semirings and transmissions.     

Homotopies for the Generalized Bar Complex Associated to Certain 3-Rowed Weyl Modules

In Buchsbaum and Rota (1994 Buchsbaum , D. , Rota , G.-C. ( 1994 ). A new construction in homological algebra . Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. 91 : 4115 – 4119 . [CSA] [CROSSREF] [Crossref], [PubMed], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]), the authors presented a generalized bar complex associated to certain 3-rowed Weyl modules and proved that this complex is in fact a resolution via an induction on the number of overlaps between the second and third rows and a fundamental exact sequence (Akin and Buchsbaum, 1985 Akin , K. , Buchsbaum , D. ( 1985 ). Characteristic-free representation theory of the general linear group . Adv. Math 58 ( 2 ): 149 – 200 . [CSA]  [Google Scholar]). In this article we study the structure of this resolution by constructing a splitting contracting homotopy for the complexes corresponding to certain shapes.     

A Note on Dimension Modules

In [2 Camillo , V. P. , Zelmanowitz , J. M. ( 1980 ). Dimension modules . Pacific J. Math. 91 : 249 – 261 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]] Camillo and Zelmanowitz stated that rings all whose modules are dimension modules are semisimple Artinian. It seem however that the proof in [2 Camillo , V. P. , Zelmanowitz , J. M. ( 1980 ). Dimension modules . Pacific J. Math. 91 : 249 – 261 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]] contains a gap and applies to rings with finite Goldie dimension only. In this paper we show that the result indeed holds for all rings with a basis as well as for all commutative rings with Goldie dimension attained.     

Derived Representation Type of Schur Superalgebras

Alg. 31 : 1799 – 1822 .[Taylor &; Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]] and Hemmer, Kujawa and Nakano in [10 Hemmer , D. J. , Kujawa , J. , Nakano , D. K. ( 2006 ).

Large time behavior and Lyapunov functionals for a nonlocal differential equation

A new approach is used to describe the large time behavior of the nonlocal differential equation initially studied in T.-N. Nguyen (On the \({\omega}\)-limit set of a nonlocal differential equation: application of rearrangement theory. Differ. Integr. Equ. arXiv:1601.06491, 2016). Our approach is based upon the existence of infinitely many Lyapunov functionals and allows us to extend the analysis performed in T.-N. Nguyen (On the \({\omega}\)-limit set of a nonlocal differential equation: application of rearrangement theory. Differ. Integr. Equ. arXiv:1601.06491, 2016).     

Certain Cyclically Presented Groups with the Same Polynomial

We consider three infinite families of cyclic presentations of groups, depending on a finite set of integers and having the same polynomial. Then we prove that the corresponding groups with the same parameters are isomorphic, and that the groups are almost all infinite. Finally, we completely compute the maximal Abelian quotients of such groups, and show that their HNN extensions are high-dimensional knot groups. Our results contain as particular cases the main theorems obtained in two nice articles: Johnson et al. (1999 Johnson , D. L. , Kim , A. C. , O'Brien , E. A. ( 1999 ). Certain cyclically presented groups are isomorphic . Comm. Algebra 27 ( 7 ): 3531 – 3536 . [CSA] [Taylor &; Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]) and Havas et al. (2001 Havas , G. , Holt , D. F. , Newman , M. F. ( 2001 ). Certain cyclically presented groups are infinite . Comm. Algebra 29 ( 11 ): 5175 – 5178 .

Continuous Cohomology of Permutation Groups on Profinite Modules

ABSTRACT

Model theorists have made use of low-dimensional continuous cohomology of infinite permutation groups on profinite modules, see Ahlbrandt and Ziegler (1991 Ahlbrandt , G. , Ziegler , M. ( 1991 ). What's so special about (?/4?)^ω? Archive for Math. Logic 31 : 115 – 132 . [CSA] [Crossref] , [Google Scholar]), Evans (1997b Evans , D. M. ( 1997b ). Computation of first cohomology groups of finite covers . J. Algebra 193 : 214 – 238 . [CSA] [CROSSREF] [Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]), Evans et al. (1997 Evans , D. M. , Ivanov , A. A. , Macpherson , H. D. ( 1997 ). Finite covers . In: Evans , D. M. , ed. Model Theory of Groups and Automorphism Groups . London Mathematical Society Lecture Notes 244 .

Cohomology of structures and some problems of Ahlbrandt and Ziegler . J. London Math. Soc. 50 ( 2 ): 1 – 16 . [CSA] [Crossref] , [Google Scholar]), for example. We expand the module category in order to widen the cohomological toolkit. For an important class of groups we use these tools to establish criteria for finiteness of cohomology.     

Divisibility Theory of Arithmetical Rings with One Minimal Prime Ideal

Continuing the study of divisibility theory of arithmetical rings started in [1 Ánh, P. N., Márki, L., Vámos, P. (2012). Divisibility theory in commutative rings: Bezout monoidss. Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 364:3967–3992.[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]] and [2 Ánh, P. N., Siddoway, M. (2010). Divisibility theory of semi-hereditary rings. Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 138:4231–4242.[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]], we show that the divisibility theory of arithmetical rings with one minimal prime ideal is axiomatizable as Bezout monoids with one minimal m-prime filter. In particular, every Bezout monoid with one minimal m-prime filter is order-isomorphic to the partially ordered monoid with respect to inverse inclusion, of principal ideals in a Bezout ring with a smallest prime ideal. Although this result can be considered as a satisfactory answer to the divisibility theory of both semihereditary domains and valuation rings, the general representation theory of Bezout monoids is still open.     

Direct Limits of Diagonal Chains of Type O,U, and Sp,and Their Homotopy Groups

ABSTRACT

Baranov and Zhilinskii (1999 Baranov , A. A. , Zhilinskii , A. G. ( 1999 ). Diagonal direct limits of simple Lie algebras . Comm. Algebra 27 ( 6 ): 2749 – 2766 [CSA] [Taylor &; Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]) have shown a classification theorem for diagonal direct limits of simple Lie algebras. In this work, we will transfer their results to diagonal direct limits of certain matrix groups, and show that homotopy groups are significant invariants for specific classes of direct limit groups.

Weyl Modules Associated to Kac–Moody Lie Algebras

Local Weyl modules were originally defined for affine Lie algebras by Chari and Pressley in [5 Chari, V., Pressley, A. (2001). Weyl modules for classical and quantum affine algebras. Represent. Theory 5:191–223 (electronic).[Crossref] , [Google Scholar]]. In this paper we extend the notion of local Weyl modules for a Lie algebra 𝔤 ?A, where 𝔤 is any Kac–Moody algebra and A is any finitely generated commutative associative algebra with unit over ?, and prove a tensor product decomposition theorem which generalizes result in [2 Chari, V., Fourier, G., Khandai, T. (2010). A categorical approach to Weyl modules. Transform. Groups 15(3):517–549.[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar], 5 Chari, V., Pressley, A. (2001). Weyl modules for classical and quantum affine algebras. Represent. Theory 5:191–223 (electronic).[Crossref] , [Google Scholar]].     

Dominance and Transmissions in Supertropical Valuation Theory

This article is a sequel of [4 Izhakian , Z. , Knebusch , M. , Rowen , L. ( 2011 ). Supertropical semirings and supervaluations . J. Pure and Applied Alg. 215 ( 10 ): 2431 – 2463 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]], where we defined supervaluations on a commutative semiring R and studied a dominance relation ? ≥ ψ between supervaluations ? and ψ on R, aiming at an enrichment of the algebraic tool box for use in tropical geometry.

A supervaluation ?: R → U is a multiplicative map from R to a supertropical semiring U, cf. [4 Izhakian , Z. , Knebusch , M. , Rowen , L. ( 2011 ). Supertropical semirings and supervaluations . J. Pure and Applied Alg. 215 ( 10 ): 2431 – 2463 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]], [7 Izhakian , Z. , Rowen , L. ( 2011 ). Supertropical matrix algebra . Israel J. Math. 182 ( 1 ): 383 – 424 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]], [8 Izhakian , Z. , Rowen , L. ( 2010 ). Supertropical polynomials and resultants . J. Alg. 324 : 1860 – 1886 . (Preprint at arXiv:0902.2155.) [Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]], [5 Izhakian , Z. , Knebusch , M. , Rowen , L. Supertropical monoids: Basics and canonical factorization . Preprint at arXiv:1108.1880 . [Google Scholar]], [9 Maclane , S. ( 1998 ). Categories for the Working Mathemtician. , 4th ed. Springer Vereag . [Google Scholar]], with further properties, which mean that ? is a sort of refinement, or covering, of an m-valuation (= monoid valuation) v: R → M. In the most important case, that R is a ring, m-valuations constitute a mild generalization of valuations in the sense of Bourbaki [1 Bourbaki , N. Algèbre Commutative VI, §3 No. 1 . [Google Scholar]], while ? ≥ ψ means that ψ: R → V is a sort of coarsening of the supervaluation ?. If ?(R) generates the semiring U, then ? ≥ ψ iff there exists a “transmission” α: U → V with ψ = α ○ ?.

Transmissions are multiplicative maps with further properties, cf. [4 Izhakian , Z. , Knebusch , M. , Rowen , L. ( 2011 ). Supertropical semirings and supervaluations . J. Pure and Applied Alg. 215 ( 10 ): 2431 – 2463 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar], Section 5]. Every semiring homomorphism α: U → V is a transmission, but there are others which lack additivity, and this causes a major difficulty. In the main body of the article we study surjective transmissions via equivalence relations on supertropical semirings. We put special emphasis on homomorphic equivalence relations. Even those are often much more complicated than congruences by ideals in usual commutative algebra.     

Expanded Degenerations and Pairs

We provide a universal approach to the moduli of Jun Li's expanded pairs and expanded degenerations [20 Li , J. ( 2001 ). Stable morphisms to singular schemes and relative stable morphisms . J. Differential Geom. 57 : 509 – 578 .[Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]]. This enables us to prove algebraicity results, compare with Li's approach and with the approach of Graber and Vakil [16 Graber , T. , Vakil , R. ( 2005 ). Relative virtual localization and vanishing of tautological classes on moduli spaces of curves . Duke Math. J. 130 : 1 – 37 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]], and generalize to the twisted expansions used by Abramovich and Fantechi as a basis for orbifold techniques in degeneration formulas.     

Algebra Structures Arising from Yang–Baxter Systems

Yang–Baxter operators from algebra structures appeared for the first time in [11 D?sc?lescu , S. , Nichita , F. ( 1999 ). Yang–Baxter operators arising from (co)algebra structures . Comm. Algebra 27 : 5833 – 5845 .[Taylor &; Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar], 22 Nichita , F. ( 1999 ). Self-inverse Yang–Baxter operators from (co)algebra structures . J. Algebra 218 : 738 – 759 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar], 23 Nuss , P. ( 1997 ). Noncommutative descent and non-abelian cohomology . K-Theory 12 ( 1 ): 23 – 74 .[Crossref] , [Google Scholar]]. Later, Yang–Baxter systems from entwining structures were constructed in [8 Brzeziński , T. , Nichita , F. F. ( 2005 ). Yang–Baxter systems and Entwining Structures . Comm. Algebra 33 : 1083 – 1093 .[Taylor &; Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]]. In fact, Yang–Baxter systems are equivalent with braid systems. In this paper we show that braidings and entwinings of various algebraic structures—in particular, algebra factorisations—can be constructed from a braid system, whence from a Yang–Baxter system as well.     

On Prime Spectrums of Commutative Rings

We show that π-regular rings and clean rings can be completely characterized by topological properties of their prime spectrums respectively. In addition, we give some applications of those result. Among others, we improve the main result of Samei (2004 Samei , K. ( 2004 ). Clean elements in commutative reduced rings . Comm. Algebra 32 ( 9 ): 3479 – 3486 . [CSA] [CROSSREF] [Taylor &; Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]) and give a new criterion for a clean ring that a commutative ring is clean if and only if idempotents lifts modulo every radical ideal.
