多项式环的单位和稳定度的注记

称环R为广义2-素环,如果R的幂零元集与上诣零根一致.证明了R上的多项式为单位当且仅当它的常数项是R中的单位而其它系数是幂零的.因此,广义2-素环上的多项式环的稳定度大于一.

Interband photoconductivity of Ge/Si structures with self-organized quantum rings

At low temperatures a lateral photoconductivity (PC) of Ge/Si (1 0 0) self-organized quantum rings (QRs) structures as a function of interband light intensity has been investigated for different values of lateral voltage and temperature. In contrast to self-organized Ge/Si quantum dots (QDs) structures (grown at the same conditions) where the stepped PC was registered, for QRs structures essential smoothing of PC steps was observed. Such behavior is determined by decreasing of strain potential around QRs in conductive Si matrix due to a transfer of Ge atoms from the center of QDs to its periphery accompanied by Ge/Si intermixing.     

Spontaneous decay of an excited atom placed near a rectangular plate

Using the Born expansion of the Green tensor, we consider the spontaneous decay rate of an excited atom placed in the vicinity of a rectangular plate. We discuss the limitations of the commonly used simplifying assumption that the plate extends to infinity in the lateral directions and examine the effects of the atomic dipole moment orientation, atomic position, and plate boundary and thickness on the atomic decay rate. In particular, it is shown that due to the plate finite size, the spontaneous decay may be inhibited even when the atom is situated very close to the surface, and that in the boundary region, the spontaneous decay rate can be strongly modified.     

On the completeness of factor rings

Let be a complete local domain containing the integers with maximal ideal such that is at least the cardinality of the real numbers. Let be a nonmaximal prime ideal of such that is a regular local ring. We construct an excellent local ring such that the completion of is , the generic formal fiber of is local with maximal ideal and if is a nonzero ideal of , then is complete.

     

Very Large Cyclic Compounds

Very large ring systems, containing more than 50 ring members, are becoming increasingly important in different topics in natural sciences. These so-called gigantocycles differ from smaller macrocycles in physical properties, special structural features and chemical behaviour. This article is meant to be the first summary of such ring systems and a synopsis of the most remarkable examples with their fascinating nano-scaled structures and ingenious synthesis. To restrict the scope of the article, only isolated and completely characterized, monodisperse compounds are presented. Furthermore, attention is mainly directed at organic gigantocycles. Some ultracycles with more than 100 ring members, mainly occurring in polymer chemistry and nature, will also be described.     

On K‐Theory of Simplicial Rings and Degreewise Constructions

We give a measure of the difference between Waldhausen's definition of the Ktheory of a simplicial ring and the definition we obtain by extending Quillen's definition degreewise. This has computational advantages as the degreewise Ktheory sometimes is simpler to work with.     

A uniform refinement property for congruence lattices

The Congruence Lattice Problem asks whether every algebraic distributive lattice is isomorphic to the congruence lattice of a lattice. It was hoped that a positive solution would follow from E. T. Schmidt's construction or from the approach of P. Pudlák, M. Tischendorf, and J. Tuma. In a previous paper, we constructed a distributive algebraic lattice with compact elements that cannot be obtained by Schmidt's construction. In this paper, we show that the same lattice cannot be obtained using the Pudlák, Tischendorf, Tuma approach.

The basic idea is that every congruence lattice arising from either method satisfies the Uniform Refinement Property, that is not satisfied by our example. This yields, in turn, corresponding negative results about congruence lattices of sectionally complemented lattices and two-sided ideals of von Neumann regular rings.
