The main aim of the paper is to classify the discrete derived categories of bounded complexes of modules over finite dimensional algebras.

An interesting topic in the ring theory is the classification of finite rings. Although rings of certain orders have already been classified, a full description of all rings of a given order remains unknown. The purpose of this paper is to classify all finite rings (up to isomorphism) of a given order. In doing so, we introduce a new concept of quasi basis for certain type of modules, which is a useful computational tool for dealing with finite rings. Then, using this concept, we give structure...

Let $H_{m,n}$ be the $m{n}^2$-dimensional Radford Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We give the classification of all ideals of $8$-dimensional Radford Hopf algebra $H_{2,2}$ by generators.

We classify the affine varieties of dimension at most 4 which occur as orbit closures with an invariant point in varieties of representations of quivers. Moreover, we show that they are normal and Cohen-Macaulay.

Let $R$ be an associative ring with identity $1$ and $J\left(R\right)$ the Jacobson radical of $R$. Suppose that $m\ge 1$ is a fixed positive integer and $R$ an $m$-torsion-free ring with $1$. In the present paper, it is shown that $R$ is commutative if $R$ satisfies both the conditions (i) $[x^m,y^m]=0$ for all $x,y\in R\setminus J\left(R\right)$ and (ii) $[x,[x,y^m]]=0$, for all $x,y\in R\setminus J\left(R\right)$. This result is also valid if (ii) is replaced by (ii)’ $[{\left(yx\right)}^m{x}^m-x^m{\left(xy\right)}^m,x]=0$, for all $x,y\in R\setminus N\left(R\right)$. Our results generalize many well-known commutativity theorems (cf. [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [9], [10], [11] and [14]).

We continue the study started recently by Agore, Bontea and Militaru in “Classifying bicrossed products of Hopf algebras” (2014), by describing and classifying all Hopf algebras $E$ that factorize through two Sweedler’s Hopf algebras. Equivalently, we classify all bicrossed products $H_4\bowtie H_4$. There are three steps in our approach. First, we explicitly describe the set of all matched pairs $(H_4,H_4,▹,◃)$ by proving that, with the exception of the trivial pair, this set is parameterized by the ground field $k$. Then, for...

A matrix $A\in M_n\left(R\right)$ is $e$-clean provided there exists an idempotent $E\in M_n\left(R\right)$ such that $A-E\in {\mathrm{GL}}_n\left(R\right)$ and $detE=e$. We get a general criterion of $e$-cleanness for the matrix $\left[[a_1,a_2,\cdots ,a_{n+1}]\right]$. Under the $n$-stable range condition, it is shown that $\left[[a_1,a_2,\cdots ,a_{n+1}]\right]$ is $0$-clean iff $(a_1,a_2,\cdots ,a_{n+1})=1$. As an application, we prove that the $0$-cleanness and unit-regularity for such $n\times n$ matrix over a Dedekind domain coincide for all $n\ge 3$. The analogous for $(s,2)$ property is also obtained.

It is well known that a semigroup S is a Clifford semigroup if and only if S is a strong semilattice of groups. We have recently extended this important result from semigroups to semirings by showing that a semiring S is a Clifford semiring if and only if S is a strong distributive lattice of skew-rings. In this paper, we introduce the notions of Clifford semidomain and Clifford semifield. Some structure theorems for these semirings are obtained.

Si considerano le estensioni chiuse $B$ di un $R$-modulo $A$ mediante un $R$-modulo $C$ nel caso in cui $R$ sia un anello semi-artiniano, cioè un anello $R$ con la proprietà che per ogni quoziente $(R{/}_I)\ne 0$ sia soc $(R/I)\ne 0$. Tali estensioni sono caratterizzate dal fatto che $A$ deve essere un sottomodulo semi-puro di $B$.

We consider rings equipped with a closure operation defined in terms of a collection of commuting idempotents, generalising the idea of a topological closure operation defined on a ring of sets. We establish the basic properties of such rings, consider examples and construction methods, and then concentrate on rings which have a closure operation defined in terms of their lattice of central idempotents.
