Hochschild homology and cohomology of generalized Weyl algebras
We compute Hochschild homology and cohomology of a class of generalized Weyl algebras, introduced by V. V. Bavula in St. Petersbourg Math. Journal, 4 (1) (1999), 71-90. Examples of such algebras are the n-th Weyl algebras, , primitive quotients of , and subalgebras of invariants of these algebras under finite cyclic groups of automorphisms. We answer a question of Bavula–Jordan (Trans. A.M.S., 353 (2) (2001), 769-794) concerning the generators of the group of automorphisms of a generalized Weyl...

Hopfian and co-Hopfian objects.
The aim of the present paper is to study Hopfian and Co-Hopfian objects in categories like the category of rings, the module categories A-mod and mod-A for any ring A. Using Stone's representation theorem any Boolean ring can be regarded as the ring A of clopen subsets of compact Hausdorff totally disconnected space X. It turns out that the Boolean ring A will be Hopfian (resp. co-Hopfian) if and only if the space X is co-Hopfian (resp. Hopfian) in the category Top. For any compact Hausdorff space...
