Depth of Initial Ideals of Normal Edge Rings

Let G be a finite graph on the vertex set [d] = {1,…, d} with the edges e ₁,…, e _n and K[t] = K[t ₁,…, t _d ] the polynomial ring in d variables over a field K. The edge ring of G is the semigroup ring K[G] which is generated by those monomials t ^e  = t _i t _j such that e = {i, j} is an edge of G. Let K[x] = K[x ₁,…, x _n ] be the polynomial ring in n variables over K, and define the surjective homomorphism π: K[x] → K[G] by setting π(x _i ) = t ^{e _i} for i = 1,…, n. The toric ideal I _G of G is the kernel of π. It will be proved that, given integers f and d with 6 ≤ f ≤ d, there exists a finite connected nonbipartite graph G on [d] together with a reverse lexicographic order <_rev on K[x] and a lexicographic order <_lex on K[x] such that (i) K[G] is normal with Krull-dim K[G] = d, (ii) depth K[x]/in_<rev (I _G ) = f and K[x]/in_<lex (I _G ) is Cohen–Macaulay, where in_<rev (I _G ) (resp., in_<lex (I _G )) is the initial ideal of I _G with respect to <_rev (resp., <_lex) and where depth K[x]/in_<rev (I _G ) is the depth of K[x]/in_<rev (I _G ).     

Commuting Values of Generalized Derivations on Multilinear Polynomials

Let K be a commutative ring with unity, R a prime K-algebra of characteristic different from 2, U the right Utumi quotient ring of R, f(x ₁,…, x _n ) a noncentral multilinear polynomial over K, and G a nonzero generalized derivation of R. Denote f(R) the set of all evaluations of the polynomial f(x ₁,…, x _n ) in R. If [G(u)u, G(v)v] = 0, for any u, v ∈ f(R), we prove that there exists c ∈ U such that G(x) = cx, for all x ∈ R and one of the following holds: 1. f(x ₁,…, x _n )² is central valued on R;

2. R satisfies s ₄, the standard identity of degree 4.

     

Characterization of 3-Rewritable Finite Nilpotent Groups

Let n be an integer greater than 1. A group G is said to be “ n-rewritable” whenever for every n elements x ₁,…,x _n of G, there exist distinct permutations τ, σ on the set {1,2,…, n} such that x _τ(1) ··· x _τ(n) = x _{σ (1)} ··· x _{σ (n)}. In this article, we complete the classification of 3-rewritable finite nilpotent groups and prove that a finite nilpotent group G is 3-rewritable if and only if G has an abelian subgroup of index 2 or the derived subgroup has order < 6.

If there exists a ∈ R such that, for all r ₁,…, r _n  ∈ R, a[F ²(f(r ₁,…, r _n )), f(r ₁,…, r _n )] = 0, then one of the following statements hold: 1. a = 0;

2. There exists λ ∈C such that F(x) = λx, for all x ∈ R;

3. There exists c ∈ U such that F(x) = cx, for all x ∈ R, with c ² ∈ C;

Quadratic Central Differential Identities on a Multilinear Polynomial

Let K be a commutative ring with unity, R a prime K-algebra, Z(R) the center of R, d and δ nonzero derivations of R, and f(x ₁,…, x _n ) a multilinear polynomial over K. If [d(f(r ₁,…, r _n )), δ (f(r ₁,…, r _n ))] ? Z(R), for all r ₁,…, r _n  ? R, then either f(x ₁,…, x _n ) is central valued on R or {d, δ} are linearly dependent over C, the extended centroid of R, except when char(R) = 2 and dim _C RC = 4.     

A New Construction for Cohen–Macaulay Graphs

Let G be a finite simple graph on a vertex set V(G) = {x ₁₁,…, x _n1}. Also let m ₁,…, m _n  ≥ 2 be integers and G ₁,…, G _n be connected simple graphs on the vertex sets V(G _i ) = {x _i1,…, x _{im i} }. In this article, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions on G ₁,…, G _n for which the graph obtained by attaching the G _i to G is unmixed or vertex decomposable. Then we characterize Cohen–Macaulay and sequentially Cohen–Macaulay graphs obtained by attaching the cycle graphs or connected chordal graphs to arbitrary graphs.     

Finite Groups all of Whose Second Maximal Subgroups are QTI-Subgroups

A subgroup H of a finite group G is called a QTI-subgroup if C _G (x) ≤ N _G (H) for any 1 ≠ x ∈ H. In this article, the finite groups all of whose second maximal subgroup are QTI-subgroups are classified.     

On the Constructive Inverse Problem in Differential Galois Theory#

We give sufficient conditions for a differential equation to have a given semisimple group as its Galois group. For any group G with G ⁰ = G ₁ · ··· · G _r , where each G _i is a simple group of type A_?, C_?, D_?, E₆, or E₇, we construct a differential equation over C(x) having Galois group G.     

Group Rings Whose Symmetric Units are Solvable

Let K be an infinite field of characteristic different from 2, and G a group. Under suitable restrictions upon G, we classify the groups such that the symmetric units of KG satisfy the solvability identity (x ₁, x ₂,…, x _{2 ⁿ} ) ^o  = 1, for some n.     

Generalized Derivations with Engel Conditions on Polynomials

Let R be a noncommutative prime ring with extended centroid C, and let D: R → R be a nonzero generalized derivation, f(X ₁,…, X _t ) a nonzero polynomial in noncommutative indeterminates X ₁,…, X _t over C with zero constant term, and k ≥ 1 a fixed integer. In this article, D and f(X ₁,…, X _t ) are characterized if the Engel identity is satisfied: [D(f(x ₁,…, x _t )), f(x ₁,…, x _t )] _k  = 0 for all x ₁,…, x _t  ∈ R.     

On Monomial Reduction and Polynomial Expressions with Respect to Binomial Ideals

Let I ? K[x ₁,…, x _n ] be an ideal and G be the reduced Gröbner basis of I with respect to lexicographic monomial order. We introduce the index of an expression of f ∈ K[x ₁,…, x _n ] with respect to G. A minimal expression is characterized as the one with zero G-index. In case where I is a binomial prime ideal, a new division algorithm with minimal and unique expression is presented. The application of our new method on benchmark polynomial systems cyclic-9 and cyclic-12 shows its superiority in comparison with the existing division algorithm.     

On Weakly ℋ-Subgroups of Finite Groups

Let G be a finite group. A subgroup H of G is called an ?-subgroup in G if N _G (H) ∩ H ^x  ≤ H for all x ∈ G. A subgroup H of G is called weakly ?-subgroup in G if there exists a normal subgroup K of G such that G = HK and H ∩ K is an ?-subgroup in G. In this article, we investigate the structure of the finite group G under the assumption that all maximal subgroups of every Sylow subgroup of some normal subgroup of G are weakly ?-subgroups in G. Some recent results are extended and generalized.     

Finite free resolutions of length two and koszul generalized complex

Abstract

In 1956, Ehrenfeucht proved that a polynomial f ₁(x ₁) + · + f _n (x _n ) with complex coefficients in the variables x ₁, …, x _n is irreducible over the field of complex numbers provided the degrees of the polynomials f ₁(x ₁), …, f _n (x _n ) have greatest common divisor one. In 1964, Tverberg extended this result by showing that when n ≥ 3, then f ₁(x ₁) + · + f _n (x _n ) belonging to K[x ₁, …, x _n ] is irreducible over any field K of characteristic zero provided the degree of each f _i is positive. Clearly a polynomial F = f ₁(x ₁) + · + f _n (x _n ) is reducible over a field K of characteristic p ≠ 0 if F can be written as F = (g ₁(x ₁)) ^p  + (g ₂(x ₂)) ^p  + · + (g _n (x _n )) ^p  + c[g ₁(x ₁) + g ₂(x ₂) + · + g _n (x _n )] where c is in K and each g _i (x _i ) is in K[x _i ]. In 1966, Tverberg proved that the converse of the above simple fact holds in the particular case when n = 3 and K is an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. In this article, we prove an extension of Tverberg's result by showing that this converse holds for any n ≥ 3.     

Some Results on p-Nilpotence and Supersolvability of Finite Groups

Let G be a finite group. A subgroup K of a group G is called an ?-subgroup of G if N _G (K) ∩ K ^x  ≦ K for all x ? G. The set of all ?-subgroups of G will be denoted by ?(G). Let P be a nontrivial p-group. A chain of subgroups 1 = P ₀ ? P ₁ ? ··· ? P _n  = P is called a maximal chain of P provided that |P _i : P _i?1| = p, i = 1, 2, ···, n. A nontrivial p-subgroup P of G is called weakly supersolvably embedded in G if P has a maximal chain 1 = P ₀ ? P ₁ ? ··· ? P _i  ? ··· ? P _n  = P such that P _i  ? ?(G) for i = 1, 2, ···, n. Using the concept of weakly supersolvably embedded, we obtain new characterizations of p-nilpotent and supersolvable finite groups.     

Induced matching extendable graphs

We say that a simple graph G is induced matching extendable, shortly IM-extendable, if every induced matching of G is included in a perfect matching of G. The main results of this paper are as follows: (1) For every connected IM-extendable graph G with |V(G)| ≥ 4, the girth g(G) ≤ 4. (2) If G is a connected IM-extendable graph, then |E(G)| ≥ ${3\over 2}|V(G)| - 2$; the equality holds if and only if G ≅ T × K₂, where T is a tree. (3) The only 3-regular connected IM-extendable graphs are C_n × K₂, for n ≥ 3, and C_2n(1, n), for n ≥ 2, where C_2n(1, n) is the graph with 2n vertices x₀, x₁, …, x_2n−1, such that x_ix_j is an edge of C_2n(1, n) if either |i − j| ≡ 1 (mod 2n) or |i − j| ≡ n (mod 2n). © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Cohomology of general coinduced representions

ABSTRACT

Let R be a prime ring with a nonzero derivation d and let f(X ₁,…,X _t ) be a multilinear polynomial over C, the extended centroid of R. Suppose that b[d(f(x ₁,…,x _t )), f(x ₁,…,x _t )] _n  = 0 for all x _i  ∈ R, where 0 ≠ b ∈ R and n is a fixed positive integer. Then f(X ₁,…,X _t ) is centrally valued on R unless char R = 2 and dim _C RC = 4. We prove a more generalized version by replacing R with a left ideal.
