Let N be the set of positive integers and A a subset of N. For n∈N, let p(A,n) denote the number of partitions of n with parts in A. In the paper J. Number Theory 73 (1998) 292, Nicolas et al. proved that, given any N∈N and B⊂{1,2,…,N}, there is a unique set A=A0(B,N), such that p(A,n) is even for n>N. Soon after, Ben Saı¨d and Nicolas (Acta Arith. 106 (2003) 183) considered σ(A,n)=∑d∣n,d∈Ad, and proved that for all k≥0, the sequence (σ(A,2kn) mod 2k+1)n≥1 is periodic on n. In this paper, we generalise the above works for any formal power series f in F2[z] with f(0)=1, by constructing a set A such that the generating function fA of A is congruent to f modulo 2, and by showing that if f=P/Q, where P and Q are in F2[z] with P(0)=Q(0)=1, then for all k≥0 the sequence (σ(A,2kn) mod 2k+1)n≥1 is periodic on n.

Abstract: In this paper we define the notion of “graded algebra with symmetries”. This notion is a generalization of the extended differential forms. We prove that for a graded algebra with symmetries T, we associate a subalgebra which generalizes the noncommutative differential forms. Using this algebra , we can define the Hochschild and cyclic homologies, cup i-products and the Steenrod squares. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Abstract: Let p be an odd prime and , where m is a positive integer. Let be a qth primitive root of 1 and be the ring of integers in . In [I. Gaál, L. Robertson, Power integral bases in prime-power cyclotomic fields, J. Number Theory 120 (2006) 372–384] I. Gaál and L. Robertson show that if , where is the class number of , then if is a generator of (in other words ) either α is equals to a conjugate of an integer translate of or is an odd integer. In this paper we show that we can remove the hypothesis over . In other words we show that if is a generator of then either α is a conjugate of an integer translate of or is an odd integer.

Abstract: This paper shows a mean (using multilinear alternating forms) of getting unimodular vectors in a module over a commutative ring, without noetheriannity hypothesis. We show an elementary approach of Serre''s splitting off theorem, Bass''s stable range and cancellation theorems and Forster–Swan''s theorem. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Given any commutative field k, denote R=Oq(Mn(k)) the coordinate ring of quantum n×n matrices over k and assume q is a nonzero element in k which is not a root of unity. Recall that R is generated by n2 variables Xi,α ((i,α)∈⟦1,n〉2) subject (only) to the following relations:If xyzt is any 2×2 sub-matrix of X=(Xi,α), then: (a) yx=q−1xy, zx=q−1xz, tz=q−1zt, ty=q−1yt, zy=yz; (b) tx=xt−(q−q−1)yz.Denote R the k-algebra generated by the same variables Xi,α subject to the same relations, except relations (b) which are replaced by: (c) tx=xt; so that R is just the algebra of regular functions on some quantum affine space of dimension n2 over k.The theory of “derivative elimination” defines a natural embedding ϕ :Spec(R)→Spec(R) and asserts that:
