Quasi-factorially closed subalgebras of Laurent polynomial rings
Shinya Kumashiro, Takanori Nagamine
Let be a domain and the Laurent polynomial ring over . In this paper we study pre-factorially closed (pfc) and quasi-factorially closed (…
Remarks on retracts of polynomial rings in three variables in any characteristic
Hideo Kojima, Takanori Nagamine, Riko Sasagawa
Let be a retract of the polynomial ring in three variables over a field . It is known that if or then is a polynomial…
Affine and Unirational unique factorial domains with unmixed gradings
Gene Freudenburg, Takanori Nagamine
This paper studies the class of unique factorial domains over an algebraically closed field which are affine or unirational over and which admit an effective unmixed $\…
Retracts of Laurent polynomial rings
Neena Gupta, Takanori Nagamine
Let be an integral domain and be the polynomial ring. In this paper, we consider retracts of for a monomial . We show that (1) if $M=\prod_{i=…
Generalizations of Samuel's criteria for a ring to be a unique factorization domain
Daniel Daigle, Gene Freudenburg, Takanori Nagamine
We give several criteria for a ring to be a UFD including generalizations of some criteria due to P. Samuel. These criteria are applied to construct, for any field k, (1) a Z-grade…
Smooth factorial affine surfaces of logarithmic Kodaira dimension zero with trivial units
Gene Freudenburg, Hideo Kojima, Takanori Nagamine
This paper considers the family of smooth affine factorial surfaces of logarithmic Kodaira dimension 0 with trivial units over an algebraically closed field . Ou…
Higher derivations of Jacobian type in positive characteristic
Takanori Nagamine
In this paper, we study higher derivations of Jacobian type in positive characteristic. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for -tuples of polynomials to be extenda…
Factorial rational varieties which admit or fail to admit an elliptic -action
Gene Freudenburg, Takanori Nagamine
Over a field , we study rational UFDs of finite transcendence degree over . We classify such UFDs when , is algebraically closed, and admits a positive $…
A note on retracts of polynomial rings in three variables
Takanori Nagamine
In Costa's paper published in 1977, he asks us whether every retract of is also the polynomial ring or not, where is a field. In this paper, we give an affirmative an…
Closed polynomials and their applications for computations of kernels of monomial derivations
Chiaki Kitazawa, Hideo Kojima, Takanrori Nagamine
In this paper, we give some results on closed polynomials and factorially closed polynomial in variables. In particular, we give a characterization of factorially closed polyno…
