AbstractIt is shown that the following conditions on a finite-dimensional algebra A over a real closed field or an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero are equivalent: (i) A admits a special involution, in the sense of Easdown and Munn, (ii) A admits a proper involution, (iii) A is semisimple.

Let A be a basic connected finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field k. Assuming that A is monomial and that the ordinary quiver Q of A has no oriented cycle and no multiple arrows, we prove that A admits a universal cover with group the fundamental group of the underlying space of Q.

In this paper, we prove that the rings of quaternions and of octonions over an arbitrary real closed field are algebraically closed in the sense of Eilenberg and Niven. As a consequence, we infer that some reasonable algebraic closure conditions, including the one of Eilenberg and Niven, are equivalent on the class of centrally finite alternative division rings. Furthermore, we classify centrally finite alternative division rings satisfying such equivalent algebraic closure conditions: up to isomorphism, they are either the algebraically closed fields or the rings of quaternions over real closed fields or the rings of octonions over real closed fields.

This paper contributes to the classification of finite dimensional Hopf algebras. It is shown that every Hopf algebra of dimension 30 over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero is semisimple and thus isomorphic to a group algebra or the dual of a group algebra.

Let [Formula: see text] be a finite-dimensional algebra. If [Formula: see text] is self-injective, then all modules are reflexive. Marczinzik recently has asked whether [Formula: see text] has to be self-injective in case all the simple modules are reflexive. Here, we exhibit an 8-dimensional algebra which is not self-injective, but such that all simple modules are reflexive (actually, for this example, the simple modules are the only non-projective indecomposable modules which are reflexive). In addition, we present some properties of simple reflexive modules in general. Marczinzik had motivated his question by providing large classes [Formula: see text] of algebras such that any algebra in [Formula: see text] which is not self-injective has simple modules which are not reflexive. However, as it turns out, most of these classes have the property that any algebra in [Formula: see text] which is not self-injective has simple modules which are not even torsionless.

AbstractLet F be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let A be an associative unitary F-algebra graded by a group of prime order. We prove that if A is finite dimensional then the graded exponent of A exists and is an integer.

Let A be a finite dimensional algebra over an algebraic closed field k. In this note, we will show that if T is a separating and splitting tilting A-module, then τ-complexities of A and B are equal, where B=EndA(T).

AbstractA module over a finite-dimensional algebra is called a ‘diamond’ if it has a simple top and a simple socle. Using covering theory, the classification of all diamonds for algebras of finite representation type over algebraically closed fields can be reduced to representation-directed algebras. The author proves a criterion referring to the positive roots of the corresponding Tits quadratic form, which makes it easy to check whether a representation-directed algebra has a faithful diamond. Using an implementation of this criterion in the CREP program system on representation theory, he is able to classify all exceptional representation-directed algebras having a faithful diamond. He obtains a list of 157 algebras up to isomorphism and duality. The 52 maximal members of this list are presented at the end of this paper.

AbstractWe show that for any real number, the class of real numbers less random than it, in the sense of rK-reducibility, forms a countable real closed subfield of the real ordered field. This generalizes the well-known fact that the computable reals form a real closed field.With the same technique we show that the class of differences of computably enumerable reals (d.c.e. reals) and the class of computably approximable reals (c.a. reals) form real closed fields. The d.c.e. result was also proved nearly simultaneously and independently by Ng (Keng Meng Ng, Master's Thesis, National University of Singapore, in preparation).Lastly, we show that the class of d.c.e. reals is properly contained in the class or reals less random than Ω (the halting probability), which in turn is properly contained in the class of c.a. reals, and that neither the first nor last class is a randomness class (as captured by rK-reducibility).

AbstractLet K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and S a nonempty subset of K such that S Q = Ø and card S < card K, where Q is the field of rational numbers. By Zorn's Lemma, there exist subfields F of K which are maximal with respect to the property of being disjoint from S. This paper examines such subfields and investigates the Galois group Gal K/F along with the lattice of intermediate subfields.
