Subgroups of a finitary linear group

Let FL_s(K) be the finitary linear group of degree s over an associative ring K with unity. We prove that the torsion subgroups of FL_s(K) are locally finite for certain classes of rings K. A description of some f.g. solvable subgroups of FL_s(K) are given.

Completely simple endomorphism rings of modules

It is proved that if A_p is a countable elementary abelian p-group, then: (i) The ring End(A_p) does not admit a nondiscrete locally compact ring topology. (ii) Under (CH) the simple ring End(A_p)/I, where I is the ideal of End(A_p) consisting of all endomorphisms with finite images, does not admit a nondiscrete locally compact ring topology. (iii) The finite topology on End(A_p) is the only second metrizable ring topology on it. Moreover, a characterization of completely simple endomorphism rings of the endomorphism rings of modules over commutative rings is also obtained.

Reduction of a pair of skew-symmetric matrices to its canonical form under congruence

Let $(A,B)$ be a pair of skew-symmetric matrices over a field of characteristic not 2. Its regularization decomposition is a direct sum \[ (\underline{\underline A},\underline{\underline B})\oplus (A_1,B_1)\oplus\dots\oplus(A_t,B_t) \] that is congruent to $(A,B)$, in which $(\underline{\underline A},\underline{\underline B})$ is a pair of nonsingular matrices and $(A_1,B_1),$ $\dots,$ $(A_t,B_t)$ are singular indecomposable canonical pairs of skew-symmetric matrices under congruence. We give an algorithm that constructs a regularization decomposition. We also give a constructive proof of the known canonical form of $(A,B)$ under congruence over an algebraically closed field of characteristic not 2.
