Special Issue Information

Dear colleagues,

The Development of Associative Algebra during the last century has resulted in the emergence of numerous theories or specialties that have given solution to many of the needs of the society we live in, increasingly developed from the technological point of view.

These needs fall into two broad groups: purely technological needs, and theoretical needs associated with developments in both applied algebra and other branches of mathematics. After all, it is not unreasonable to think that algebra is something like the "mathematics of mathematics".

There are many branches of algebra whose contributions solve problems posed by the scientific challenges arising from the advancement of technology. Two of them also stand out for their popularity in society: Cryptography and Coding Theory.

And from the theoretical point of view it is remarkable the momentum that some disciplines have had in the last 20 years. Thus, Homological Algebra has been given a big push with the emergence of the different classes of Gorenstein modules, and especially in recent years, of the relative Gorenstein modules. And the emergence of Hopf Algebras has made a huge impact on many branches of mathematics and physics. And of course, one cannot forget very active branches with immense applications at all times: Module Theory and Quivers Representation Theory.

Thus, we present this special issue of Mathematics as a tool to show recent and interesting results on the branches of Homological Algebra, Module Theory, Quivers Representation Theory, Hopf Algebras, Cryptography and Coding Theory.

Abstract
Inspired by the multiplier Hopf algebra theory introduced by A. Van Daele, this paper introduces a new algebraic structure, a multiplier Hopf coquasigroup, by constructing the integral dual of an infinite-dimensional Hopf quasigroup with faithful integrals.

Inspired by the multiplier Hopf algebra theory introduced by A. Van Daele, this paper introduces a new algebraic structure, a multiplier Hopf coquasigroup, by constructing the integral dual of an infinite-dimensional Hopf quasigroup with faithful integrals. Then, it shows that the biduality theorem also holds for Hopf quasigroups and multiplier Hopf coquasigroups of the discrete type. Full article

The paper is concerned with h-pure-N-high submodules of QTAG-modules. Here, we characterize the submodules N of an h-reduced QTAG-module for which all h-pure-N-high submodules are bounded. We also discuss some interesting properties of subsocles and consequently give a characterization of the direct sum of uniserial modules. Full article

This paper introduces skew dihedral group rings and their applications for public-key cryptography. We present a specific skew group ring that is the underlying algebraic platform for our cryptographic constructions. We then build a two-party key exchange protocol and present an analysis of its security. We then exploit it to derive a group key agreement protocol, a probabilistic public-key scheme, and a key encapsulation mechanism. In addition to the security analysis of our cryptographic constructions, we present a proof-of-concept implementation. Full article

In this paper we introduce a Group Key Management protocol following the idea of the classical protocol that extends the well-known Diffie–Hellman key agreement to a group of users. The protocol is defined in a non-commutative setting, more precisely, in a twisted dihedral group ring. The protocol is defined for an arbitrary cocycle, extending previous key agreements considered for two users. The main objective of this work is to show that there is no lack of security derived from the fact that a larger amount of public information is known by an external observer. Full article

Let A and B be rings, U a (B,A)-bimodule, and T=A0UB the triangular matrix ring. In this paper, several notions in relative Gorenstein algebra over a triangular matrix ring are investigated. We first study how to construct w-tilting (tilting, semidualizing) over T using the corresponding ones over A and B. We show that when U is relative (weakly) compatible, we are able to describe the structure of GC-projective modules over T. As an application, we study when a morphism in T-Mod is a special GCP(T)-precover and when the class GCP(T) is a special precovering class. In addition, we study the relative global dimension of T. In some cases, we show that it can be computed from the relative global dimensions of A and B. We end the paper with a counterexample to a result that characterizes when a T-module has a finite projective dimension. Full article

In this paper, we prove that for any pair of weak Hopf monoids H and B in a symmetric monoidal category where every idempotent morphism splits, the category of H-B-Long dimodules HBLong is monoidal. Moreover, if H is quasitriangular and B coquasitriangular, we also prove that HBLong is braided. As a consequence of this result, we obtain that if H is triangular and B cotriangular, HBLong is an example of a symmetric monoidal category. Full article
