The rational completion $\overline{M}$ of an $R$-module $M$ can be characterized as a ${\tau }_M$-injective hull of $M$ with respect to a (hereditary) torsion functor ${\tau }_M$ depending on $M$. Properties of a torsion functor depending on an $R$-module $M$ are studied.

In this paper we introduce the concept of $\tau$-extending modules by $\tau$-rational submodules and study some properties of such modules. It is shown that the set of all $\tau$-rational left ideals of ${}_{R}R$ is a Gabriel filter. An $R$-module $M$ is called $\tau$-extending if every submodule of $M$ is $\tau$-rational in a direct summand of $M$. It is proved that $M$ is $\tau$-extending if and only if $M=Re{j}_{M}E(R/\tau \left(R\right))\oplus N$, such that $N$ is a $\tau$-extending submodule of $M$. An example is given to show that the direct sum of $\tau$-extending modules need not...

Consider the families of curves $C^{n,A}:y²=xⁿ+Ax$ and $C_{n,A}:y²=xⁿ+A$ where A is a nonzero rational. Let $J^{n,A}$ and $J_{n,A}$ denote their respective Jacobian varieties. The torsion points of $C^{3,A}\left(\mathbb{Q}\right)$ and $C_{3,A}\left(\mathbb{Q}\right)$ are well known. We show that for any nonzero rational A the torsion subgroup of $J^{7,A}\left(\mathbb{Q}\right)$ is a 2-group, and for A ≠ 4a⁴,-1728,-1259712 this subgroup is equal to $J^{7,A}\left(\mathbb{Q}\right)\left[2\right]$ (for a excluded values of A, with the possible exception of A = -1728, this group has a point of order 4). This is a variant of the corresponding results for $J^{3,A}$ (A ≠ 4) and $J^{5,A}$. We...

Let $p$ be a prime number. This paper introduces the Roquette category ${ℛ}_p$ of finite $p$-groups, which is an additive tensor category containing all finite $p$-groups among its objects. In ${ℛ}_p$, every finite $p$-group $P$ admits a canonical direct summand $\partial P$, called the edge of $P$. Moreover $P$ splits uniquely as a direct sum of edges of Roquette $p$-groups, and the tensor structure of ${ℛ}_p$ can be described in terms of such edges. The main motivation for considering this category is that the additive functors...

Siano $d$, $g$, $t$ interi con $0\le t\le g$; se esiste in ${\mathbb{P}}_3(ℂ)$ una curva connessa, non singolare di grado $d$ e genere $g$, allora esiste in ${\mathbb{P}}_3(ℂ)$ una curva irriducibile di grado $d$, genere aritmetico $g$ e $t$ nodi.

Let $n,d$ be two non-negative integers. A left $R$-module $M$ is called $(n,d)$-injective, if ${\mathrm{Ext}}^{d+1}(N,M)=0$ for every $n$-presented left $R$-module $N$. A right $R$-module $V$ is called $(n,d)$-flat, if ${\mathrm{Tor}}_{d+1}(V,N)=0$ for every $n$-presented left $R$-module $N$. A left $R$-module $M$ is called weakly $n$-$FP$-injective, if ${\mathrm{Ext}}^n(N,M)=0$ for every $(n+1)$-presented left $R$-module $N$. A right $R$-module $V$ is called weakly $n$-flat, if ${\mathrm{Tor}}_n(V,N)=0$ for every $(n+1)$-presented left $R$-module $N$. In this paper, we give some characterizations and properties of $(n,d)$-injective modules and $(n,d)$-flat modules in...

Sia $K\subset \subset {ℝ}^n$ un compatto, $f\ge 0$ una funzione analitica all'intorno di $K$, ed $m$ la massima molteplicità in $K$ degli zeri di $f$; si prova che la potenza $f^{\lambda }$ ($\lambda \in ℂ$, $Re\lambda >\mathrm{—}\frac{1}{m}$) è integrabile in $K$. L'estensione meromorfa dell'applicazione $\lambda \to f^{\lambda }$ da $Re\lambda >0$ a tutto $ℂ$ (con valori in ${𝒟}^{\prime }(K)$ anziché in $L^1(K)$) era già stata provata in [1] e [2].

Ogni logica $L$ genera canonicamente la $L$-equivalenza ${\equiv }_L$e la $L$-immersione $\underset{𝐿}{\to }$ proprio come la logica del primo ordine genera l’equivalenza elementare $\equiv$ e l’immersione elementare $\lesssim$. Astraendo da $L$, è interessante studiare in sè relazioni d’equivalenza e di immersione generali tra strutture. Mostriamo che esiste una corrispondenza biunivoca tra relazioni d’equivalenza con la proprietà di Robinson e relazioni d’immersione con la proprietà di Amalgamazione Forte ($A{P}^{+}$). Caratterizziamo algebricamente...

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $p\>0$. Let $D_m$ be a ${BT}_m$ over $k$ (i.e., an $m$-truncated Barsotti–Tate group over $k$). Let $S$ be a $k$-scheme and let $X$ be a ${BT}_m$ over $S$. Let $S_{D_m}\left(X\right)$ be the subscheme of $S$ which describes the locus where $X$ is locally for the fppf topology isomorphic to $D_m$. If $p\ge 5$, we show that $S_{D_m}\left(X\right)$ is pure in $S$, i.e. the immersion $S_{D_m}\left(X\right)\hookrightarrow S$ is affine. For $p\in \{2,3\}$, we prove purity if $D_m$ satisfies a certain technical property depending only on its $p$-torsion $D_m\left[p\right]$. For $p\ge 5$, we apply the developed techniques to show that...

Si considera l’equazione astratta $B{A}_{1}u+A_{0}u=h$, dove $A_i$ $(i=0,1)$ e $B$ sono convenienti operatori lineari chiusi fra spazi di Banach, $A_i$ non è necessariamente invertibile, e $A_0$, $A_1$ non commutano con $B$. Si studiano esistenza ed unicità delle soluzioni. Si indicano alcune applicazioni a certe equazioni differenziali degeneri o singolari.

We describe all ${ℱ}^2{ℳ}_{m_1,m_2,n_1,n_2}$-natural operators $D:Q_{proj-proj}^{\tau }⇝Q{T}^{*}$ transforming projectable-projectable classical torsion-free linear connections $\nabla$ on fibred-fibred manifolds $Y$ into classical linear connections $D\left(\nabla \right)$ on cotangent bundles $T^{*}Y$ of $Y$. We show that this problem can be reduced to finding ${ℱ}^2{ℳ}_{m_1,m_2,n_1,n_2}$-natural operators $D:Q_{proj-proj}^{\tau }⇝(T^{*},{\otimes }^p{T}^{*}\otimes {\otimes }^{q}T)$ for $p=2$, $q=1$ and $p=3$, $q=0$.

Let $G$ be a group and $m$ be an integer greater than or equal to $2$. $G$ is said to be $m$-permutable if every product of $m$ elements can be reordered at least in one way. We prove that, if $G$ has a centre of finite index $z$, then $G$ is $(1+[z/2])$-permutable. More bounds are given on the least $m$ such that $G$ is $m$-permutable.

Let $M$ be an $m$-dimensional manifold and $A={𝔻}_k^r/I=ℝ\oplus N_A$ a Weil algebra of height $r$. We prove that any $A$-covelocity $T_x^{A}f\in T_x^{A*}M$, $x\in M$ is determined by its values over arbitrary $max\{\mathrm{width}A,m\}$ regular and under the first jet projection linearly independent elements of $T_x^{A}M$. Further, we prove the rigidity of the so-called universally reparametrizable Weil algebras. Applying essentially those partial results we give the proof of the general rigidity result $T^{A*}M\simeq T^{r*}M$ without coordinate computations, which improves and generalizes the partial...

In 1955, Roth established that if $\xi$ is an irrational number such that there are a positive real number $\epsilon$ and infinitely many rational numbers $p/q$ with $q\ge 1$ and $|\xi -p/q|\<q^{-2-\epsilon }$, then $\xi$ is transcendental. A few years later, Cugiani obtained the same conclusion with $\epsilon$ replaced by a function $q\mapsto \epsilon \left(q\right)$ that decreases very slowly to zero, provided that the sequence of rational solutions to $|\xi -p/q|\<q^{-2-\epsilon \left(q\right)}$ is sufficiently dense, in a suitable sense. We give an alternative, and much simpler, proof of Cugiani’s Theorem and extend it...

Let $X$ be the wonderful compactification of a connected adjoint semisimple group $G$ defined over a number field $K$. We prove Manin’s conjecture on the asymptotic (as $T\to \infty$) of the number of $K$-rational points of $X$ of height less than $T$, and give an explicit construction of a measure on $X\left(𝔸\right)$, generalizing Peyre’s measure, which describes the asymptotic distribution of the rational points $𝐆\left(K\right)$ on $X\left(𝔸\right)$. Our approach is based on the mixing property of $L^2(𝐆\left(K\right)\setminus 𝐆\left(𝔸\right))$ which we obtain with a rate of convergence. ...
