Additive Duality at Cosmall Injectives
Additive functions for quivers with relations extend the classical concept of additive functions for graphs. It is shown that the concept, recently introduced by T. Hübner in a special context, can be defined for different homological levels. The existence of such functions for level 2 resp. ∞ relates to a nonzero radical of the Tits resp. Euler form. We derive the existence of nonnegative additive functions from a family of stable tubes which stay tubes in the derived category, we investigate when...
The motivation for considering positive additive functions on trees was a characterization of extended Dynkin graphs (see I. Reiten [R]) and applications of additive functions in representation theory (see H. Lenzing and I. Reiten [LR] and T. Hübner [H]). We consider graphs equipped with integer-valued functions, i.e. valued graphs (see also [DR]). Methods are given for constructing additive functions on valued trees (in particular on Euclidean graphs) and for characterizing...
In 1950 N. Jacobson proved that if u is an element of a ring with unit such that u has more than one right inverse, then it has infinitely many right inverses. He also mentioned that I. Kaplansky proved this in another way. Recently, K. P. Shum and Y. Q. Gao gave a new (non-constructive) proof of the Kaplansky-Jacobson theorem for monoids admitting a ring structure. We generalize that theorem to monoids without any ring structure and we show the consequences of the generalized Kaplansky-Jacobson...
This paper contains the algebraic analog for idempotent matrices of the Chern-Weil theory of characteristic classes. This is used to show, algebraically, that the canonical line bundle on the complex projective space is not stably trivial. Also a theorem is proved saying that for any smooth manifold there is a canonical epimorphism from the even dimensional algebraic de Rham cohomology of its algebra of smooth functions onto the standard even dimensional de Rham cohomology of the manifold.
