The representation dimension of domestic weakly symmetric algebras

Rafał Bocian, Thorsten Holm, Andrzej Skowroński (2004)

Open Mathematics

Auslander’s representation dimension measures how far a finite dimensional algebra is away from being of finite representation type. In [1], M. Auslander proved that a finite dimensional algebra A is of finite representation type if and only if the representation dimension of A is at most 2. Recently, R. Rouquier proved that there are finite dimensional algebras of an arbitrarily large finite representation dimension. One of the exciting open problems is to show that all finite dimensional algebras...

The rings which are Boolean

Ivan Chajda, Filip Švrček (2011)

Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications

We study unitary rings of characteristic 2 satisfying identity x p = x for some natural number p. We characterize several infinite families of these rings which are Boolean, i.e., every element is idempotent. For example, it is in the case if p = 2 n - 2 or p = 2 n - 5 or p = 2 n + 1 for a suitable natural number n. Some other (more general) cases are solved for p expressed in the form 2 q + 2 m + 1 or 2 q + 2 m where q is a natural number and m 1 , 2 , . . . , 2 q - 1 .

The semiring of 1-preserving endomorphisms of a semilattice

Jaroslav Ježek, Tomáš Kepka (2009)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We prove that the semirings of 1-preserving and of 0,1-preserving endomorphisms of a semilattice are always subdirectly irreducible and we investigate under which conditions they are simple. Subsemirings are also investigated in a similar way.
