We prove that the multiplicity of a simple module as a composition factor in a composition series for a primitive band module over a domestic string algebra is at most two.

We construct bar-invariant $\mathbb{Z}\left[q^{\pm 1/2}\right]$-bases of the quantum cluster algebra of the valued quiver $A_2^{\left(2\right)}$, one of which coincides with the quantum analogue of the basis of the corresponding cluster algebra discussed in P. Sherman, A. Zelevinsky: Positivity and canonical bases in rank 2 cluster algebras of finite and affine types, Moscow Math. J., 4, 2004, 947–974.

In the present paper, we will show that the set of minimal elements of a full affine semigroup $A\hookrightarrow {\mathbb{N}}_0^k$ contains a free basis of the group generated by $A$ in ${\mathbb{Z}}^k$. This will be applied to the study of the group ${\text{K}}_0\left(R\right)$ for a semilocal ring $R$.

Suppose $R$ is a commutative ring with identity of prime characteristic $p$ and $G$ is an arbitrary abelian $p$-group. In the present paper, a basic subgroup and a lower basic subgroup of the $p$-component $U_p\left(RG\right)$ and of the factor-group $U_p\left(RG\right)/G$ of the unit group $U\left(RG\right)$ in the modular group algebra $RG$ are established, in the case when $R$ is weakly perfect. Moreover, a lower basic subgroup and a basic subgroup of the normed $p$-component $S\left(RG\right)$ and of the quotient group $S\left(RG\right)/G_p$ are given when $R$ is perfect and $G$ is arbitrary whose $G/G_p$ is $p$-divisible....

Let $S\left(RG\right)$ be a normed Sylow $p$-subgroup in a group ring $RG$ of an abelian group $G$ with $p$-component $G_p$ and a $p$-basic subgroup $B$ over a commutative unitary ring $R$ with prime characteristic $p$. The first central result is that $1+I(RG;B_p)+I(R\left(p^i\right)G;G)$ is basic in $S\left(RG\right)$ and $B[1+I(RG;B_p)+I(R\left(p^i\right)G;G)]$ is $p$-basic in $V\left(RG\right)$, and $[1+I(RG;B_p)+I(R\left(p^i\right)G;G)]G_p/G_p$ is basic in $S\left(RG\right)/G_p$ and $[1+I(RG;B_p)+I(R\left(p^i\right)G;G)]G/G$ is $p$-basic in $V\left(RG\right)/G$, provided in both cases $G/G_p$ is $p$-divisible and $R$ is such that its maximal perfect subring $R^{p^i}$ has no nilpotents whenever $i$ is natural. The second major result is that $B(1+I(RG;B_p))$ is $p$-basic in $V\left(RG\right)$ and $(1+I(RG;B_p))G/G$ is $p$-basic in $V\left(RG\right)/G$,...

Suppose $F$ is a perfect field of $\mathrm{c}harF=p\ne 0$ and $G$ is an arbitrary abelian multiplicative group with a $p$-basic subgroup $B$ and $p$-component $G_p$. Let $FG$ be the group algebra with normed group of all units $V\left(FG\right)$ and its Sylow $p$-subgroup $S\left(FG\right)$, and let $I_p(FG;B)$ be the nilradical of the relative augmentation ideal $I(FG;B)$ of $FG$ with respect to $B$. The main results that motivate this article are that $1+I_p(FG;B)$ is basic in $S\left(FG\right)$, and $B(1+I_p(FG;B))$ is $p$-basic in $V\left(FG\right)$ provided $G$ is $p$-mixed. These achievements extend in some way a result of N. Nachev (1996) in Houston...

Let $M$ be any compact simply-connected oriented $d$-dimensional smooth manifold and let $𝔽$ be any field. We show that the Gerstenhaber algebra structure on the Hochschild cohomology on the singular cochains of $M$, $H{H}^{*}(S^{*}\left(M\right),S^{*}\left(M\right))$, extends to a Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra. Such Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra was conjectured to exist and is expected to be isomorphic to the Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra on the free loop space homology on $M$, $H_{*+d}\left(LM\right)$ introduced by Chas and Sullivan. We also show that the negative cyclic cohomology $H{C}_{-}^{*}\left(S^{*}\left(M\right)\right)$...

We first prove that every countably presented module is a pure epimorphic image of a countably generated pure-projective module, and by using this we prove that if every countably generated pure-projective module is pure-injective then every module is pure-injective, while if in any countably generated pure-projective module every countably generated pure-projective pure submodule is a direct summand then every module is pure-projective.

In a braided monoidal category C we consider Hopf bimodules and crossed modules over a braided Hopf algebra H. We show that both categories are equivalent. It is discussed that the category of Hopf bimodule bialgebras coincides up to isomorphism with the category of bialgebra projections over H. Using these results we generalize the Radford-Majid criterion and show that bialgebra cross products over the Hopf algebra H are precisely described by H-crossed module bialgebras. In specific braided monoidal...

Let $G$ be a group generated by a set of finite order elements. We prove that any bicrossed product $H_{m,d}\left(q\right)\bowtie k\left[G\right]$ between the generalized Taft algebra $H_{m,d}\left(q\right)$ and group algebra $k\left[G\right]$ is actually the smash product $H_{m,d}\left(q\right)♯k\left[G\right]$. Then we show that the classification of these smash products could be reduced to the description of the group automorphisms of $G$. As an application, the classification of $H_{m,d}\left(q\right)\bowtie k[C_{n_1}\times C_{n_2}]$ is completely presented by generators and relations, where $C_n$ denotes the $n$-cyclic group.
