Dear Colleague,
We are forwarding you the second announcement and the registration
form of the Ring Theory Conference to be held in Miskolc, Hungary, July
15-20, 1996. For your convenience we have included two versions of the
announcement: one in ordinary text format, and one in (Plain) TeX format.
We would appreciate if you could acknowledge receipt of this
message: this would save us the mailing cost, as we will send the
announcement also by ordinary mail to those addresses from which we
shall not have received an acknowledgemnent within two weeks.
We would also like to ask you to post this announcement at your
department so that other members who may have not received our letter
could also learn about the event. Thanking you for your help, sincerely
yours,
Laszlo Marki
for the organizers

---------------------------------------------------------------
| Ring Theory Conference
|
| Miskolc, Hungary, July 15--20, 1996
|
| A satellite conference of the
| Second European Congress of Mathematics
| (Budapest, July 21--27, 1996)
|
| Second Announcement
---------------------------------------------------------------
1. Site.
--------
The conference will take place at the University of Miskolc.
Miskolc, a town of over 200.000 inhabitants, lies in the North-East
of Hungary, about 200 km from Budapest, at the foot of the Bukk
mountains. The outskirts of Miskolc include many beautiful places,
among others the spa Miskolc--Tapolca, at a 15-minute walking
distance from the University -- this is where we have made all hotel
reservations (except the dormitories, which are on the campus).
Summer in Hungary is usually hot and dry but exceptions are possible.
Unless one comes by train or by car from Poland--Slovakia or Romania
or Ukraine, Miskolc is best to reach from Budapest. Trains go roughly
at 2-hour intervals, and it takes 2 to 3 hours to cover the distance.
2. Scientific program.
----------------------
The conference is intended to be a major event in ring theory, giving
information about recent progress in several branches of the theory.
We are making strong efforts to raise funds for ensuring
participation of a large number of colleagues from poor countries.
The program will begin on Monday in the morning and end on Saturday
presumably at noon; preferred arrival on Sunday (14th) afternoon,
suggested departure on Sunday (21st) morning. Half of the time
available will be devoted to invited 50-minute addresses. Here is the

3. Short talks.
---------------
Participants are invited to contribute 20-minute talks. Please
indicate wishes about the scheduling of your talk (if any).
Depending on their number, short talks will be given in parallel
sessions. Those who wish to use overhead projectors are asked to
bring their own transparencies.
4. Abstracts
------------
of talks will be distributed to all participants. They should not
exceed one page, should be prepared -- if possible -- following the
enclosed instructions, and received by May 31.
5. Proceedings.
---------------
We plan to publish proceedings of the conference. The publisher has
not been decided yet, negotiations are in process. We ask those who
wish to submit a paper to indicate a tentative title and length. All
papers will be refereed. Depending on funding, participants may get
the volume(s) at a reduced rate. Participants are strongly encouraged
to submit their manuscript at the conference. A firm deadline
(September 30) for submission will be set for later submissions.
6. Registration.
----------------
The participation fee covers conference materials including the
abstracts, free lunches from Monday to Saturday, a banquet and an
excursion. The participation fee is 100 US$ if sent by April 30 and
135 US$ (20000 HUF) afterwards. A reduced rate of 50 US$ (or 65
US$ after April 30) can be granted for students and unemployed or
for participants from 'economically troubled countries'. Reduced
rate must be applied for in advance, only students may get it on the
spot. Participants from countries with strong restrictions on money
transfers abroad may pay the fee on the spot if this circumstance is
indicated by April 30 and their request is approved by the
organizers.
Accompanying persons.
---------------------
Participation fee is 50 US$ before and 65 US$ after April 30 if
lunch is requested, 20$ resp. 30$ without lunch (this covers
banquet and excursion). No participation fee is required for children
below 12 years of age, except for the costs of lunch, which can be
paid upon arrival.
***** Early registration -- via E-mail -- is highly appreciated! *****
7. Accommodation.
-----------------
We have made agreements with three hotels in Miskolc--Tapolca. We
have reserved two of them completely and half of the rooms in the
third, partly at considerably reduced prices. Most rooms in these
hotels (and in Miskolc--Tapolca altogether) are two-bed rooms, and
some apartments (for couples with one or two children) are also
available. Here is a table of prices for double rooms including
breakfast. Rooms in hotels Flora and Park are equipped with shower,
those in Juno with bath. All rooms in Juno and the more expensive
ones in Park come with refrigerator, TV-set and telephone. In Hotel
Juno only a limited number of rooms will be available for single
occupancy price. Apartments are also in a comparable price category.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Hotel Double occupancy Single occupancy
----------------------------------------------------------------
Flora 3600 HUF -- 24 US$ 3300 HUF -- 22 US$
----------------------------------------------------------------
Juno 5400 HUF -- 36 US$ 4500 HUF -- 30 US$
----------------------------------------------------------------
Park 4500 HUF -- 30 US$ 4000 HUF -- 27 US$
6500 HUF -- 44 US$ 6000 HUF -- 40 US$
----------------------------------------------------------------
The student dormitory is rather poorly equipped, with common showers
and lavatories. A dormitory room for two persons costs 1000 HUF (=7
US$) without breakfast.
Those wishing to be lodged at one of these places should send their
order to the organizers on the enclosed registration form. Hotel
reservations (but not dormitory) will be considered only if a 50 US$
deposit is sent together with the registration fee. We shall allocate
rooms rougly on a 'first come first served' basis; please indicate a
second choice, too. Prices may be subject to some change. Without
reservations, rooms may be available at a higher rate.
8. Payment.
-----------
Please send the money by bank transfer to an account of OTP
(Hungarian National Savings Bank) at foreign banks shown in the
following list:

**********************************************************************
Should you have problems, you can send the money directly to OTP
(S.W.I.F.T.: OTPVHUHB), account nr. 11707024-55555555, with the
remark: for Algebra Association, account nr. B75009. Please try the
other way first because this one goes with long delays.
You are expected to pay for the transfer up to an OTP account of your
choice. You may pay the equivalent of US$ prices in the home
currency of the bank chosen from the above list.
Refunds.
--------
Before June 15, 80% of the paid registration fee (minus transfer
costs) is refundable. After June 15 there is no refund. Hotel
deposits are fully refundable if the order is cancelled before June
1, unless there is a high number of cancellations. All refunds will
be handled in August.
9. Lunch
--------
will be provided, from Monday to Saturday, for all participants in
two or three restaurants at a walking distance from the University.
Please indicate on the registration form if you follow some diet
(say, vegetarian); we will try to meet your wishes.
10. Excursion.
--------------
On Wednesday afternoon there will be an excursion to the Aggtelek
stalactite and stalagmite cave at an hour's drive from Miskolc. This
is a huge and spectacular cave, with 21 km overall length the second
largest of its kind in Europe. Of course, we shall visit only
part(s) of it. No special equipment is needed, but you are well
advised to bring along a sweater.
11. Computer algebra.
----------------------
In case of interest, we may organize a session about computer
software developped for ring theoretic manipulations. PC-s will be
available in very limited numbers on the spot.
12. Third announcement
----------------------
will be in mail around June 15. Please, let us know your address at
that time. By the end of March a Web site will be set at
http://www.math-inst.hu/conferences/rings/home.html
containing updated information about the conference (e.g. list of
registered participants).
13. Support.
------------
Partly depending on our success in raising funds, a limited amount of
financial support may be avaliable for participants from
'economically troubled countries'. Those who wish to ask for such
support are requested to send a short application by March 15. This
application should contain: full name and address (including E-mail
and FAX number if available), age, scientific degree, instituiton,
position held, number of publications, bibliographical data of five
most important papers and what kind of support the applicant would
like to get: waiving the registration fee, free accomodation, travel
support (specify the amount). We would appreciate getting these
applications both by E-mail and regular mail. A decision will
probably be made early in May. In any case, we intend to inform
applicants about the outcome as soon as possible. Participants
getting free accomodation will normally be lodged in double rooms,
partly in the dormitory. -- We encourage everyone to apply also for
other funds since we have only limited resources. Applying for less
support may improve your chances.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMISSION OF ABSTRACTS
Abstracts should be printed or typed and be of good quality, not
exceeding one page. The typing area is 6.5 inches times 9 inches
(16.5 cm times 22.8 cm). The name of the authors (each followed by a
postal address) and the title of the talk should appear (in this
order) on the top of the abstract. In case of multiple authors an
asterisque should indicate the speaker. In this header 3 cm space on
the left hand side should be left for additional information.
Theorems, corollaries etc. should be typed using italics or
underlined letters. A reference list may be included at the end of
the text.
Authors (especially those using TeX, Latex or AmSTeX) are encouraged
to submit also the file of their abstracts (either by E-mail or on a
floppy disk -- IBM PC or Macintosh format; please make sure that your
mailer does not use any nonstandard encoding of the text). In each
case, however, we need also a hardcopy of the abstract. Receipt of
the abstract will be acknowledged by E-mail or with the third
announcement.
Please, send your abstracts to the following address:

A generalization of a theorem by R. Module
The aim of the talk is to give a generalized version of a well-known
theorem by R. Module (cf. [1]). The notion of light rings is
introduced. We also define heavy and portable modules in terms of
flatness properties of the corresponding purse structure. Then the
following theorem holds.
THEOREM 1. Let R be an arbitrary ring with 1. The following
conditions are equivalent:
(i) R is light;
(ii) every heavy module over R is portable.
As a consequence of this theorem we show that a wide class of
(associative) rings appearing in Lie theory is light. In turn this
will imply the heaviness of certain Lie-algebra representations.

\centerline{\bf For Algebra Association, 11707024-55555555/B75009}
\smallskip
Should you have problems, you can send the money directly to OTP
(S.W.I.F.T.: OTPVHUHB), account nr. 11707024-55555555, with the
remark: for Algebra Association, account nr. B75009. Please try the
other way first because this one goes with long delays.
You are expected to pay for the transfer up to an OTP account of your
choice. You may pay the equivalent of US\$ prices in the home currency
of the bank chosen from the above list.
\titleb{Refunds.} Before June 15, 80\% of the paid registration
fee (minus transfer costs) is refundable. After June 15 there is no
refund. Hotel deposits are fully refundable if the order is cancelled
before June 1, unless there is a high number of cancellations. All refunds
will be handled in August.
\titleb{9.~Lunch} will be provided, from Monday to Saturday, for all
participants in two or three restaurants at a walking distance from the
University. Please indicate on the registration form if you follow some
diet (say, vegetarian); we will try to meet your wishes.
\titleb{10.~Excursion.} On Wednesday afternoon there will be an excursion
to the Aggtelek stalactite and stalagmite cave at an hour's drive from
Miskolc. This is a huge and spectacular cave, with 21 km overall length
the second largest of its kind in Europe. Of course, we shall visit only
part(s) of it. No special equipment is needed, but you are well advised
to bring along a sweater.
\titleb{11.~Computer algebra.} In case of interest, we may organize a
session about computer software developped for ring theoretic
manipulations. PC-s will be available in very limited numbers on the spot.
\titleb{12.~Third announcement} will be in mail around June 15. Please,
let us know your address at that time. By the end
of March a Web site will be set at
\centerline{\tt http://www.math-inst.hu/conferences/rings/home.html}
\noindent containing updated information about the conference (e.g. list
of registered participants).
\titleb{13.~Support.} Partly depending on our success in raising funds, a
limited amount of financial support may be avaliable for participants from
\lq economically troubled countries\rq. Those who wish to ask for such
support are requested to send a short application by March 15. This
application should contain: full name and address (including E-mail
and FAX number if available), age, scientific degree, instituiton,
position held, number of publications, bibliographical data of five most
important papers and what kind of support the applicant would like to
get: waiving the registration fee, free accomodation, travel support
(specify the amount). We would appreciate getting these applications both
by E-mail and regular mail. A decision will probably be made early in May.
In any case, we intend to inform applicants about the outcome as soon as
possible. Participants getting free accomodation will normally be lodged
in double rooms, partly in the dormitory. -- We encourage everyone to
apply also for other funds since we have only limited resources. Applying
for less support may improve your chances.

\titlea{Instructions for submission of abstracts}
Abstracts should be printed or typed and be of good quality, not exceeding
one page. The typing area is 6.5 inches $\times$ 9 inches (16.5 cm
$\times$ 22.8 cm). The name of the authors (each followed by a postal
address) and the title of the talk should appear (in this order) on the
top of the abstract. In case of multiple authors an asterisque should
indicate the speaker. In this header 3 cm space on the left hand side
should be left for additional information.
Theorems, corollaries etc. should be typed using {\it italics} or
$\underline{\rm\vphantom{y}underlined}$ letters. A reference list may be
included at the end of the text.
Authors (especially those using \TeX, Latex or AmSTeX) are encouraged to
submit also the file of their abstracts (either by E-mail or on a
floppy disk -- IBM PC or Macintosh format; please make
sure that your mailer does not use any nonstandard encoding of the text).
In each case, however, we need also a hardcopy of the abstract. Receipt of
the abstract will be acknowledged by E-mail or with the third announcement.
Please, send your abstracts to the following address:

\talk{A generalization of a theorem by R. Module}
\head
The aim of the talk is to give a generalized version of a well-known
theorem by R. Module (cf. \refmark{1}). The notion of
light rings is introduced. We also define heavy and portable modules in
terms of flatness properties of the corresponding purse structure.
Then the following theorem holds.
\theorem{1.}
{Let $R$ be an arbitrary ring with $1$. The following conditions are
equivalent:
\item{(i)} $R$ is light;
\item{(ii)} every heavy module over $R$ is portable.\par
}
As a consequence of this theorem we show that a wide class of
(associative) rings appearing in Lie theory is light. In turn this will
imply the heaviness of certain Lie-algebra representations.
