AbstractThis article studies algebras R over a simple artinian ring A, presented by a quiver and relations and graded by a semigroup Σ. Suitable semigroups often arise from a presentation of R. Throughout, the algebras need not be finite dimensional. The graded K0, along with the Σ-graded Cartan endomorphisms and Cartan matrices, is examined. It is used to study homological properties.A test is found for finiteness of the global dimension of a monomial algebra in terms of the invertibility of the Hilbert Σ-series in the associated path incidence ring.The rationality of the Σ-Euler characteristic, the Hilbert Σ-series and the Poincaré-Betti Σ-series is studied when Σ is torsion-free commutative and A is a division ring. These results are then applied to the classical series. Finally, we find new finite dimensional algebras for which the strong no loops conjecture holds.

It was shown by Baer in [1] that every soluble group satisfying Min-n, the minimal condition for normal subgroups, is a torsion group. Examples of non-soluble locally soluble groups satisfying Min-n have been known for some time (see McLain [2]), and these examples too are periodic. This raises the question whether all locally soluble groups with Min-n are torsion groups. We prove here that this is not the case, by establishing the existence of non-trivial locally soluble torsion-free groups satisfying Min-n. Rather than exhibiting one such group G, we give a general method for constructing examples; the reader will then be able to see that a variety of additional conditions may be imposed on G. It will follow, for instance, that G may be a Hopf group whose normal subgroups are linearly ordered by inclusion and are all complemented in G; further, that the countable groups G with these properties fall into exactly isomorphism classes. Again, there are exactly isomorphism classes of countable groups G which have hypercentral nonnilpotent Hirsch-Plotkin radical, and which at the same time are isomorphic to all their non-trivial homomorphic images.

We classify irreducible unitary representations of the group of all infinite matrices over a p p -adic field ( p ≠ 2 p\ne 2 ) with integer elements equipped with a natural topology. Any irreducible representation passes through a group G L GL of infinite matrices over a residue ring modulo p k p^k . Irreducible representations of the latter group are induced from finite-dimensional representations of certain open subgroups.

In \cite{levin}, Levin conjectured that every equation is solvable over a torsion free group. In this paper we consider a nonsingular equation $g_{1}tg_{2}t g_{3}t g_{4} t g_{5} t g_{6} t^{-1} g_{7} t g_{8}t \\ g_{9}t^{-1} = 1$ of length $9$ and show that it is solvable over torsion free groups modulo some exceptional cases.
