Generalized Derivations with Invertible or Nilpotent Values on Multilinear Polynomials

Let R be a ring with unity, g a generalized derivation on R and f(X ₁,…,X _k ) a multilinear polynomial. In this article we describe the structure of R provided that g(f(x ₁,…,x _k )) is either invertible or nilpotent for every x ₁,…,x _k in some nonzero ideal of R.     

Derivations with algebraic values of bounded degree

Let Rbe a prime algebra over a field .F, d a nonzero derivation of Rand ρ a nonzero right ideal of R. Suppose that for every x∈ ρ,d(x) is algebraic over Fof bounded degree. Then Ris a primitive ring with a minimal right ideal eR, where e=e² ∈Rand eReis a finite-dimensional central division algebra, except when dis an inner derivation induced by an element a in the two-sided Martindale quotient ring of Rsuch that aρp = 0. An analogous result is also proved for the Lie ideal case.     

On Lie ideals with derivations as homomorphisms and anti-homomorphisms

In [2, Theorem 3], Bell and Kappe proved that if d is a derivation of a prime ring R which acts as a homomorphism or an anti-homomorphism on a nonzero right ideal I of R, then d = 0 on R. In the present paper our objective is to extend this result to Lie ideals. The following result is proved: Let R be a 2-torsion free prime ring and U a nonzero Lie ideal of R such that u ² ∈ U, for all u ∈ U. If d is a derivation of R which acts as a homomorphism or an anti-homomorphism on U, then either d=0 or U ?Z(R).     

Generalized Derivations with Engel Conditions on One-Sided Ideals

Let R be a noncommutative prime ring and I a nonzero left ideal of R. Let g be a generalized derivation of R such that [g(r ^k ), r ^k ] _n  = 0 for all r ∈ I, where k, n are fixed positive integers. Then there exists c ∈ U, the left Utumi quotient ring of R, such that g(x) = xc and I(c ? α) = 0 for a suitable α ∈ C. In particular we have that g(x) = α x, for all x ∈ I.     

A Generalization of Engel Conditions with Derivations in Rings

Let R be a prime ring of characteristic different from 2 with Z the center of R and d a nonzero derivation of R. Let k, m, n be fixed positive integers. If ([d(x ^k ), x ^k ] _n ) ^m  ∈ Z for all x ∈ R, then R satisfies S ₄, the standard identity in 4 variables.     

Resolutions of monomial almost complete intersections and generalizations

Let S=K[x₁,…,x_n] be a polynomial ring over a field kand let / be a monomial ideal of S. The main result of this paper is an explicit minimal resolution of kover R= S/Iwhen / is a monomial almost complete intersection ideal of S. We also compute an upper bound on the multigraded resolution of k over a generalization of monomial almost complete intersection ring.     

ANALYTIC SPREAD AND SCHEME-THEORETIC GENERATION

Let I be a homogeneous ideal in a positively graded affine k-algebra (where k is an infinite field). We characterize the scheme-theoretic generations J of I which are reductions of I; we deduce that l(I) ≤ σ(I) where l(I) is the analytic spread of I and σ(I) denotes the minimal number of the scheme-theoretic generations of I. As application, in the polynomial ring k[x ₀,…,x _{d ? 1}], we prove the uniqueness of the degrees of every scheme-th. generation of minimal length for a quasi complete intersection I when codim(I) < d ? 1.     

Commutativity of rings with derivations

I. N. Herstein [10] proved that a prime ring of characteristic not two with a nonzero derivation d satisfying d(x)d(y) = d(y)d(x) for all x, y must be commutative, and H. E. Bell and M. N. Daif [8] showed that a prime ring of arbitrary characteristic with nonzero derivation d satisfying d(xy) = d(yx) for all x, y in some nonzero ideal must also be commutative. For semiprime rings, we show that an inner derivation satisfying the condition of Bell and Daif on a nonzero ideal must be zero on that ideal, and for rings with identity, we generalize all three results to conditions on derivations of powers and powers of derivations. For example, let R be a prime ring with identity and nonzero derivation d, and let m and n be positive integers such that, when charR is finite, m ∨ n < charR. If d(x ^m y ⁿ ) = d(y ⁿ x ^m ) for all x, y ∈ R, then R is commutative. If, in addition, charR≠ 2 and the identity is in the image of an ideal I under d, then d(x) ^m d(y) ⁿ = d(y) ⁿ d(x) ^m for all x, y ∈ I also implies that R is commutative.     

Betti Numbers of Path Ideals of Trees

Let R = k[x₁,…, x_n], where k is a field. The path ideal (of length t) of a directed graph G is the monomial ideal, denoted by I_t(G), whose generators correspond to the directed paths of length t in G. We determine all the graded Betti numbers of the path ideal of a directed rooted tree with respect to some graphical terms.     

Left Annihilators of Commutators with Derivation on Right Ideals

Abstract

Let R be a prime ring of characteristic different from 2, d a non-zero derivation of R, I a non-zero right ideal of R, a ∈ R, S ₄(x ₁,…, x ₄) the standard polynomial in 4 variables. Suppose that, for any x, y ∈ I, a[d([x, y]), [x, y]] = 0. If S ₄(I, I, I, I)I ≠ 0, then aI = ad(I) = 0.     

Generic Initial Ideals,Graded Betti Numbers,and k-Lefschetz Properties

We introduce the k-strong Lefschetz property and the k-weak Lefschetz property for graded Artinian K-algebras, which are generalizations of the Lefschetz properties. The main results are:

1. Let I be an ideal of R = K[x ₁, x ₂,…, x _n ] whose quotient ring R/I has the n-SLP. Suppose that all kth differences of the Hilbert function of R/I are quasi-symmetric. Then the generic initial ideal of I is the unique almost revlex ideal with the same Hilbert function as R/I.

2. We give a sharp upper bound on the graded Betti numbers of Artinian K-algebras with the k-WLP and a fixed Hilbert function.     

On additive maps of prime rings satisfying the engel condition

Let A be a prime ring with nonzero right ideal R and f : R → A an additive map. Next, let k,n₁, n₂,…,n_k be natural numbers. Suppose that […[[(x), xn¹], xn²],…, xn^k]=0 for all x ∈ R. Then it is proved in Theorem 1.1 that [f(x),x]=0 provided that either char(A)=0 or char (A)> n₁+n₂+ …+n_k Theorem 1.1 is a simultaneous generalization of a number of results proved earlier.     

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.

Inoltre si caratterizzano gli anelli in cui [[a, b], [c, d]] _k è nilpotente o regolare per ogni scelta dia, b, c, d inR.      

ADDITIVE SUBGROUPS GENERATED BY POLYNOMIAL VALUES ON RIGHT IDEALS

Let R be a prime ring with extended centroid C, ρ a nonzero right ideal of R and f(X ₁,…,X_t ) a nonzero polynomial over C. We determine the additive subgroup of RC generated by all elements f(x ₁,…,x_t ) for x ₁,…,x_t ∈ ρ C and obtain a result concerning an independence property of polynomials in prime rings.     

ON CERTAIN SUBGROUPS OF PRIME RINGS WITH DERIVATIONS

Let R be a noncommutative prime ring and let d be a nonzero derivation on R. A classical theorem of Posner asserts that the subset {[x ^d , x]|x ∈ R} is not contained in the center of R. Under the additional assumption that char R ≠ 2 and d ³ ≠ 0, we show that the additive subgroup of R generated by the subset {[x ^d , x] | x ∈ R} contains a noncentral Lie ideal of R.     

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.     

Cohen–Macaulayness and Limit Behavior of Depth for Powers of Cover Ideals

Let 𝕂 be a field, and let R = 𝕂[x ₁,…, x _n ] be the polynomial ring over 𝕂 in n indeterminates x ₁,…, x _n . Let G be a graph with vertex-set {x ₁,…, x _n }, and let J be the cover ideal of G in R. For a given positive integer k, we denote the kth symbolic power and the kth bracket power of J by J ^(k) and J ^[k], respectively. In this paper, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for R/J ^k , R/J ^(k), and R/J ^[k] to be Cohen–Macaulay. We also study the limit behavior of the depths of these rings.
