Equivalence of idempotents and projective modules over nonunital rings
For a nonunital ring $R$ (or "rng") one has to be a little bit careful when considering the category of (left or right) $R$-module and, furthermore, the standard equivalent definitions of projective m …

How to prove that a projective module is not free?
Let $A$ be a noncommutative (perhaps $\ast$-) algebra (over $\mathbb{C}$) and let $M$ be a projective module defined via a projector $P\in M_n(A)$; i.e. $M=P(A^n)$. Furthermore, assume that all object …

Skew fraction fields of *-algebras
Let $R$ be a (non-commutative) domain satisfying the (right) Ore condition; i.e. for all $a,b\in R$ one can find $\beta_1,\beta_2\in R$ such that $a\beta_1=b\beta_2$. In the well known construction of …

Which concept of dimension of a ring of functions on a manifold, gives the dimension of the ...
Let $R$ be a ring of (smooth?) functions on a (connected?) manifold of dimension $n$. What concept of dimension (of the ring $R$) gives the dimension of the manifold? To what class of rings does this …

When are two projective modules of equal rank isomorphic?
Let $R$ be a commutative ring and let $M,N$ be two finitely generated projective $R$-modules which have equal rank (not necessarily constant). What kind of general results are there concerning the que …

Trace of the identity map in a projective module
Let $A$ be a commutative algebra (over the complex numbers, with a unit) and let $M$ be a finitely generated projective $A$-module, and let $m_1,\ldots,m_n$ be a set of generators of $M$. The Dual Bas …

Positive matrices matrices over commutative rings
Assume that $R$ is a commutative ring with a ring compatible ordering and let $A$ and $B$ be symmetric $n\times n$ matrices with entries in $R$ such that $\sum x_iA_{ij}x_j\geq 0$ and $\sum x_iB_{ij}x …
