Tensor product of two transcendental flat algebras is not a field?
I'm considering the correctness of the following assertion, which is related to linear disjointness (I'm trying to generalize it to subalgebras), What does "linearly disjoint" mean for ...

System of linear equations in positive characteristic
Let $K$ be a field of positive characteristic $p$. Consider the system of $\mathbb F_p$-linear equations
$$\left\{\begin{array}{ccl}
a_{11}x_1+a_{12}x_2+\cdots+a_{1n}x_n&=&b_1\\
a_{11}x^p_1+a_{...

Is there a symmetric basis for $\mathbf{Q}(x,y)$?
Consider $\mathbf{Q}(x,y)$, the rational functions in $x$ and $y$, as a vector space over $\mathbf{Q}$.
Let $\sigma$ be the map interchanging $x$ and $y$. Is there a basis for $\mathbf{Q}(x,y)$ ...

Frobenius twist of a field
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $p>0$ (not necessarily perfect). Consider the Frobenius endomorphism $F : k \to k$, $x \mapsto x^p$. I am curious about what happens when we take $k$ as a $k$-...

Determinant and restriction of scalar
Let $E/F$ be a finite separable extension of fields, and $V$ a finite dimensional vector space over $E$. Let $T\in\operatorname{End}_EV$ be a linear operator on $V$, and let $\det(T)$ be its ...

Complementation in an extension field
If $E$ is an extension field of $F$, is $F$ necessarily (without assuming the axiom of choice) complemented as a vector subspace of $E$? (Of course the answer is easily yes if the extension is finite....

Generalization of SVD algorithm
Let $K$ be a field, $A\in K^{n\times m}$ and $\lVert \cdot \rVert$ the Euclidean norm. Consider the problem: Find a $v\in K^m$ such that
\begin{align}
\lVert Av\rVert=\min_{\lVert x\rVert=1}\lVert Ax\...
