Homological algebra and module theory constitute a vibrant area of contemporary mathematics, interweaving concepts from algebra, topology and geometry. At its core, homological algebra studies chain ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. I write on the human/political issues surrounding college admissions.

The Virasoro vertex algebra arises as the symmetry algebra of a two-dimensional conformal field theory. The Virasoro irreducible modules are well-known, and they play a prominent role in rational ...

This paper is based on work of Rees on integral closures of modules and initiates the study of integrally closed modules over two-dimensional regular local rings in analogy with the classical theory ...

This module can be used by students to hone their mental math skills using a variety of mathematical operations. The game goes through multiplication, addition, subtraction, algebra, and exponent ...
