Relative determinant of a bilinear module
Journal Title: Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications - Year 2014, Vol 34, Issue 2
Abstract
The aim of the paper is to generalize the (ultra-classical) notion of the determinant of a bilinear form to the class of bilinear forms on projective modules without assuming that the determinant bundle of the module is free. Successively it is proved that this new definition preserves the basic properties, one expects from the determinant. As an example application, it is shown that the introduced tools can be used to significantly simplify the proof of a recent result by B. Rothkegel. Keywords: determinant, bilinear forms, projective modules. 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: 11E39, 15A63, 13C10.

RELATION BETWEEN (FUZZY) GODEL IDEALS AND ¨ (FUZZY) BOOLEAN IDEALS IN BL-ALGEBRAS
In this paper, we study relationships between among (fuzzy) Boolean ideals, (fuzzy) G¨odel ideals, (fuzzy) implicative filters and (fuzzy) Boolean filters in BL-algebras. In [9], there is an example which shows that a G¨...
Some properties of the zero divisor graph of a commutative ring
Let Γ(R) be the zero divisor graph for a commutative ring with identity. The k-domination number and the 2-packing number of Γ(R), where R is an Artinian ring, are computed. k-dominating sets and 2-packing sets for the z...
The Clifford semiring congruences on an additive regular semiring
A congruence ρ on a semiring S is called a (generalized)Clifford semiring congruence if S/ρ is a (generalized)Clifford semiring. Here we characterize the (generalized)Clifford congruences on a semiring whose additive red...
Jordan numbers, Stirling numbers and sums of powers
In the paper a new combinatorical interpretation of the Jordan numbers is presented. Binomial type formulae connecting both kinds of numbers mentioned in the title are given. The decomposition of the product of polynomia...
THE ARMENDARIZ GRAPH OF A RING
In this paper we initiate the study of Armendariz graph of a commutative ring R and investigate the basic properties of this graph such as diameter, girth, domination number, etc. The Armendariz graph of a ring R, denote...
