The class of linear (resp. quadratic) mappings over a commutative ring is determined by a set of equation-type relations. For the class of homogeneous polynomial mappings of degree m ≥ 3 it is so over a field, and over a ring there exists a smallest equationally definable class of mappings containing the preceding one. It is proved that generating relations determining that class can be chosen to be strong relations (that is, of the same form over all commutative rings) if{f} m ≤ 5. These relations...

Let $(R,𝔪)$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring, $𝔞$ be an ideal of $R$ and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module such that $𝔞M\ne M$ and $\mathrm{cd}(𝔞,M)-\mathrm{grade}(𝔞,M)\le 1$, where $\mathrm{cd}(𝔞,M)$ is the cohomological dimension of $M$ with respect to $𝔞$ and $\mathrm{grade}(𝔞,M)$ is the $M$-grade of $𝔞$. Let $D(-):={\mathrm{Hom}}_R(-,E)$ be the Matlis dual functor, where $E:=E(R/𝔪)$ is the injective hull of the residue field $R/𝔪$. We show that there exists the following long exact sequence $$\begin{array}{cc}\hfill 0⟶& H_{𝔞}^{n-2}\left(D\left(H_{𝔞}^{n-1}\left(M\right)\right)\right)⟶H_{𝔞}^n\left(D\left(H_{𝔞}^n\left(M\right)\right)\right)⟶D\left(M\right)\\ \hfill ⟶& H_{𝔞}^{n-1}\left(D\left(H_{𝔞}^{n-1}\left(M\right)\right)\right)⟶H_{𝔞}^{n+1}\left(D\left(H_{𝔞}^n\left(M\right)\right)\right)\\ \hfill ⟶& H_{𝔞}^n\left(D\left(H_{(x_1,...,x_{n-1})}^{n-1}\left(M\right)\right)\right)⟶H_{𝔞}^n\left(D\left(H_{(}^{n-1}M\right)\right))⟶...,\end{array}$$ where $n:=\mathrm{cd}(𝔞,M)$ is a non-negative integer, $x_1,...,x_{n-1}$ is a regular sequence in $𝔞$ on $M$ and, for an $R$-module $L$, $H_{𝔞}^i\left(L\right)$ is the $i$th local cohomology module of $L$ with respect...

Let $(R,𝔪)$ be a complete local ring, $𝔞$ an ideal of $R$ and $N$ and $L$ two Matlis reflexive $R$-modules with $\mathrm{Supp}\left(L\right)\subseteq V\left(𝔞\right)$. We prove that if $M$ is a finitely generated $R$-module, then ${\mathrm{Ext}}_R^i(L,H_{𝔞}^j(M,N))$ is Matlis reflexive for all $i$ and $j$ in the following cases: (a) $\dim R/𝔞=1$; (b) $\mathrm{cd}\left(𝔞\right)=1$; where $\mathrm{cd}$ is the cohomological dimension of $𝔞$ in $R$; (c) $\dim R\le 2$. In these cases we also prove that the Bass numbers of $H_{𝔞}^j(M,N)$ are finite.

We study matrix factorizations of a potential W which is a section of a line bundle on an algebraic stack. We relate the corresponding derived category (the category of D-branes of type B in the Landau-Ginzburg model with potential W) with the singularity category of the zero locus of W generalizing a theorem of Orlov. We use this result to construct push-forward functors for matrix factorizations with relatively proper support.

Working over an algebraically closed field k of any characteristic, we determine the matrix factorizations for the-suitably graded-triangle singularities $f=x^a+y^b+z^c$ of domestic type, that is, we assume that (a,b,c) are integers at least two satisfying 1/a + 1/b + 1/c > 1. Using work by Kussin-Lenzing-Meltzer, this is achieved by determining projective covers in the Frobenius category of vector bundles on the weighted projective line of weight type (a,b,c). Equivalently, in a representation-theoretic context,...

In this article, we formalize a matrix of ℤ-module and its properties. Specially, we formalize a matrix of a linear transformation of ℤ-module, a bilinear form and a matrix of the bilinear form (Gramian matrix). We formally prove that for a finite-rank free ℤ-module V, determinant of its Gramian matrix is constant regardless of selection of its basis. ℤ-module is necessary for lattice problems, LLL (Lenstra, Lenstra and Lovász) base reduction algorithm and cryptographic systems with lattices [22]...

We introduce the notion of a matroid $M$ over a commutative ring $R$, assigning to every subset of the ground set an $R$-module according to some axioms. When $R$ is a field, we recover matroids. When $R=\mathbb{Z}$, and when $R$ is a DVR, we get (structures which contain all the data of) quasi-arithmetic matroids, and valuated matroids, i.e. tropical linear spaces, respectively. More generally, whenever $R$ is a Dedekind domain, we extend all the usual properties and operations holding for matroids (e.g., duality), and...

Lakshmibai, Mehta and Parameswaran (LMP) introduced the notion of maximal multiplicity vanishing in Frobenius splitting. In this paper we define the algebraic analogue of this concept and construct a Frobenius splitting vanishing with maximal multiplicity on the diagonal of the full flag variety. Our splitting induces a diagonal Frobenius splitting of maximal multiplicity for a special class of smooth Schubert varieties first considered by Kempf. Consequences are Frobenius splitting of tangent bundles,...

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unity. The notion of maximal non valuation domain in an integral domain is introduced and characterized. A proper subring $R$ of an integral domain $S$ is called a maximal non valuation domain in $S$ if $R$ is not a valuation subring of $S$, and for any ring $T$ such that $R\subset T\subset S$, $T$ is a valuation subring of $S$. For a local domain $S$, the equivalence of an integrally closed maximal non VD in $S$ and a maximal non local subring of $S$ is established. The relation between $dim(R,S)$ and the number...

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unity. The notion of maximal non $\lambda$-subrings is introduced and studied. A ring $R$ is called a maximal non $\lambda$-subring of a ring $T$ if $R\subset T$ is not a $\lambda$-extension, and for any ring $S$ such that $R\subset S\subseteq T$, $S\subseteq T$ is a $\lambda$-extension. We show that a maximal non $\lambda$-subring $R$ of a field has at most two maximal ideals, and exactly two if $R$ is integrally closed in the given field. A determination of when the classical $D+M$ construction is a maximal non $\lambda$-domain is given. A necessary condition is given...

A domain R is called a maximal non-Jaffard subring of a field L if R ⊂ L, R is not a Jaffard domain and each domain T such that R ⊂ T ⊆ L is Jaffard. We show that maximal non-Jaffard subrings R of a field L are the integrally closed pseudo-valuation domains satisfying dimv R = dim R + 1. Further characterizations are given. Maximal non-universally catenarian subrings of their quotient fields are also studied. It is proved that this class of domains coincides with the previous class when R is integrally...

We give an explicit upper bound for the number of isolated intersections between an integral curve of a polynomial vector field in Rn and an affine hyperplane.The problem turns out to be closely related to finding an explicit upper bound for the length of ascending chains of polynomial ideals spanned by consecutive derivatives.This exposition constitutes an extended abstract of a forthcoming paper: only the basic steps are outlined here, with all technical details being either completely omitted...
