The Chevalley-Eilenberg differential calculus and differential operators over N-graded commutative rings are constructed. This is a straightforward generalization of the differential calculus over commutative rings, and it is the most general case of the differential calculus over rings that is not the non-commutative geometry. Since any N-graded ring possesses the associated Z_2-graded structure, this also is the case of the graded differential calculus over Grassmann algebras and the supergeometry and field theory on graded manifolds.
ZX-calculus is a strict mathematical formalism for graphical quantum computing which is based on the field of complex numbers. In this paper, we extend its power by generalising ZX-calculus to such an extent that it is universal both in an arbitrary commutative ring and in an arbitrary commutative semiring. Furthermore, we follow the framework of arXiv:2007.13739 to prove respectively that the proposed ZX-calculus over an arbitrary commutative ring (semiring) is complete for matrices over the same ring (semiring), via a normal form inspired from matrix elementary operations such as row addition and row multiplication. This work could lead to various applications including doing elementary number theory in string diagrams.
This paper contains a set of lecture notes on manifolds with boundary and corners, with particular attention to the space of quantum states. A geometrically inspired way of dealing with these kind of manifolds is presented,and explicit examples are given in order to clearly illustrate the main ideas.
We consider $G$-graded commutative algebras, where $G$ is an abelian group. Starting from a remarkable example of the classical algebra of quaternions and, more generally, an arbitrary Clifford algebra, we develop a general viewpoint on the subject. We then give a recent classification result and formulate an open problem.
Let $R$ be a commutative local ring. It is proved that $R$ is Henselian if and only if each $R$-algebra which is a direct limit of module finite $R$-algebras is strongly clean. So, the matrix ring $mathbb{M}_n(R)$ is strongly clean for each integer $n>0$ if $R$ is Henselian and we show that the converse holds if either the residue class field of $R$ is algebraically closed or $R$ is an integrally closed domain or $R$ is a valuation ring. It is also shown that each $R$-algebra which is locally a direct limit of module-finite algebras, is strongly clean if $R$ is a $pi$-regular commutative ring.
Let $R$ be a commutative ring. We investigate $R$-modules which can be written as emph{finite} sums of {it {second}} $R$-submodules (we call them emph{second representable}). We provide sufficient conditions for an $R$-module $M$ to be have a (minimal) second presentation, in particular within the class of lifting modules. Moreover, we investigate the class of (emph{main}) emph{second attached prime ideals} related to a module with such a presentation.
