On the Automorphism Group of the First Weyl Algebra

Let A ₁: = 𝕜[t, ?] be the first algebra over a field 𝕜 of characteristic zero. Let Aut_𝕜(A ₁) be the automorphism group of the ring A ₁. One can associate to each right ideal I of A ₁ a subgroup of Aut_𝕜(A ₁) called the isomorphism subgroup of I. In this article, we show that each such isomorphism subgroup is equal to its normalizer. For that, we study when the isomorphism subgroup of a right ideal of A ₁ contains a given isomorphism subgroup.     

Weak Cayley table groups III: PSL(2,q)

A weak Cayley table isomorphism is a bijection φ:G→H of groups such that φ(xy)～φ(x)φ(y) for all x,y∈G. Here ～ denotes conjugacy. When G = H the set of all weak Cayley table isomorphisms φ:G→G forms a group 𝒲(G) that contains the automorphism group Aut(G) and the inverse map I:G→G,x?x^?1. Let 𝒲₀(G) = ?Aut(G),I?≤𝒲(G) and say that G has trivial weak Cayley table group if 𝒲(G) = 𝒲₀(G). We show that PSL(2,pⁿ) has trivial weak Cayley table group, where p≥5 is a prime and n≥1.     

A Construction Method for Albert Algebras over Algebraic Varieties

We construct cubic Jordan algebras over an integral proper scheme X such that 2, 3 ∈ H ⁰(X, 𝒪 _X ), generalizing a construction by B. N. Allison and J. R. Faulkner. In the process, we obtain admissible cubic algebras and pseudocomposition algebras over X. Results on the structure of these algebras are obtained, as well as examples over elliptic curves.     

Point-primitive linear spaces with number of points being a product of two primes

This work is a part of the general program to classify point-primitive finite linear spaces. Let 𝒮 be a non-trivial finite regular linear space with mp points and G≤Aut(𝒮) be point-primitive, here m and p are two primes with m≤p. In this paper, we give a classification of the pairs (G,𝒮). For a small positive integer k≥3 and a non-regular transitive group G on 𝒫, where |𝒫| = v, we also present an algorithm to sift all 2-(v,k,1) designs with point-set 𝒫, and admitting G as an automorphism group.     

Generalized skew derivations on triangular algebras determined by action on zero products

For a triangular algebra 𝒜 and an automorphism σ of 𝒜, we describe linear maps F,G:𝒜→𝒜 satisfying F(x)y+σ(x)G(y) = 0 whenever x,y∈𝒜 are such that xy = 0. In particular, when 𝒜 is a zero product determined triangular algebra, maps F and G satisfying the above condition are generalized skew derivations of the form F(x) = F(1)x+D(x) and G(x) = σ(x)G(1)+D(x) for all x∈𝒜, where D:𝒜→𝒜 is a skew derivation. When 𝒜 is not zero product determined, we show that there are also nonstandard solutions for maps F and G.     

Restrictions of Symmetric Invariants of a Complex Semisimple Lie Algebra and Some Applications

Let 𝔤 be a finite-dimensional complex semisimple Lie algebra and σ an arbitrary semisimple automorphism of 𝔤. Let 𝔱 be a Cartan subalgebra of 𝔨 = 𝔤^σ and 𝔥 =Z _𝔤(𝔱) be the centralizer of 𝔱 in 𝔤. Then 𝔥 is a σ-invariant Cartan subalgebra of 𝔤 and 𝔱 = 𝔥^σ. Let W(𝔤, 𝔥) be the Weyl group. One knows that Δ(𝔤, 𝔱), the set of roots of 𝔤 in 𝔱, is also a root system. It is proved that the corresponding Weyl group W(𝔤, 𝔱) is isomorphic to W(𝔤, 𝔥)^σ, which is the subgroup of W(𝔤, 𝔥) consisting of those elements commuting with σ. It is also shown that the image of the restriction map S(𝔥*) ^{W(𝔤, 𝔥)} → S(𝔱*) ^{W(𝔨, 𝔱)}, where S(𝔥*) and S(𝔱*) are the polynomial algebras on 𝔥 and 𝔱, respectively, is exactly S(𝔱*) ^{W(𝔤, 𝔱)}. Based on the above result, we also get a complete classification of the pairs (𝔤, σ) such that 𝔤^σ is noncohomologous to zero in 𝔤.     

Cyclic Groups as Autocommutator Groups

This article classifies the groups X whose autocommutator subgroup [X, Aut(X)] is isomorphic to ? and the finite groups X for which [X, Aut(X)] ? C _p has a prime number p of elements.     

On Finite n-Acentralizer Groups

Let G be a group and Aut(G) be the group of automorphisms of G. Then the Acentralizer of an automorphism α ∈Aut(G) in G is defined as C _G (α) = {g ∈ G∣α(g) = g}. For a finite group G, let Acent(G) = {C _G (α)∣α ∈Aut(G)}. Then for any natural number n, we say that G is n-Acentralizer group if |Acent(G)| =n. We show that for any natural number n, there exists a finite n-Acentralizer group and determine the structure of finite n-Acentralizer groups for n ≤ 5.     

THE STRUCTURE OF THE TANGENT CONE: AN INTERESTING BIJECTION#

ABSTRACT

Let X = Spec(R) be a reduced equidimensional algebraic variety over an algebraically closed field k. Let Y = Spec(R/𝔮) be a codimension one ordinary multiple subvariety, where 𝔮 is a prime ideal of height 1 of R. If U is a nonempty open subset of Y and 𝔪 a closed point of U, we denote by A ? R _𝔪 its local ring in X, by 𝔭 the extension of 𝔮 in A, and by K the algebraic closure of the residue field k(𝔭).

Then there exists a bijection γ^𝔪:Proj(G _𝔭(A) ?  _A/𝔭 k) → Proj(G(A _𝔭) ?  _k(𝔭)K) such that for every subset Σ of Proj(G _𝔭(A) ?  _A/𝔭 k), the Hilbert function of Σ coincides with the Hilbert function of γ^𝔪(Σ). We examine some applications. We study the structure of the tangent cone at a closed point of a codimension one ordinary multiple subvariety.     

Examples of groups which have a graphical regular representation

A group G is said to have a graphical regular representation if there exists a simple graph X such that (i) G · Aut(X), the full automorphism group of X, and (ii) G is regular as a permutation group on the sea V(X) of the vertices of X. Many papers studying which groups have a graphical regular representation have been published. The purpose of this note is to add some examples of groups which have a graphical regular representation.     

Tensor Product Representations of the Lie Superalgebra 𝔭(n) and Their Centralizers

Abstract

We construct an associative algebra A _k and show that there is a representation of A _k on V ^?k , where V is the natural 2n-dimensional representation of the Lie superalgebra 𝔭(n). We prove that A _k is the full centralizer of 𝔭(n) on V ^?k , thereby obtaining a “Schur-Weyl duality” for the Lie superalgebra 𝔭(n). This result is used to understand the representation theory of the Lie superalgebra 𝔭(n). In particular, using A _k we decompose the tensor space V ^?k , for k = 2 or 3, and show that V ^?k is not completely reducible for any k ≥ 2.     

Nonlinear generalized Lie triple derivation on triangular algebras

Let ? be a commutative ring with identity and let 𝔄 = Tri(𝒜,?,?) be a triangular algebra consisting of unital algebras 𝒜,? over ? and an (𝒜,?)-bimodule ? which is faithful as a left 𝒜-module as well as a right ?-module. In this paper, we prove that under certain assumptions every nonlinear generalized Lie triple derivation G_L:𝔄→𝔄 is of the form G_L = δ+τ, where δ:𝔄→𝔄 is an additive generalized derivation on 𝔄 and τ is a mapping from 𝔄 into its center which annihilates all Lie triple products [[x,y],z].     

A GENERALIZATION OF AUSLANDER–BUCHSBAUM AND BASS FORMULAS

Abstract

Given a contravariant functor F : 𝒞 → 𝒮ets for some category 𝒞, we say that F (𝒞) (or F) is generated by a pair (X, x) where X is an object of 𝒞 and x ∈ F(X) if for any object Y of 𝒞 and any y ∈ F(Y), there is a morphism f : Y → X such that F(f)(x) = y. Furthermore, when Y = X and y = x, any f : X → X such that F(f)(x) = x is an automorphism of X, we say that F is minimally generated by (X, x). This paper shows that if the ring R is left noetherian, then there exists a minimal generator for the functor ?xt (?, M) : ? → 𝒮ets, where M is a left R-module and ? is the class (considered as full subcategory of left R-modules) of injective left R-modules.     

Some Maximal Function Fields and Additive Polynomials

We derive explicit equations for the maximal function fields F over 𝔽 _{q ²ⁿ} given by F = 𝔽 _{q ²ⁿ} (X, Y) with the relation A(Y) = f(X), where A(Y) and f(X) are polynomials with coefficients in the finite field 𝔽 _{q ²ⁿ} , and where A(Y) is q-additive and deg(f) = q ⁿ  + 1. We prove in particular that such maximal function fields F are Galois subfields of the Hermitian function field H over 𝔽 _{q ²ⁿ} (i.e., the extension H/F is Galois).     

Right Coideal Subalgebras of Quantized Universal Enveloping Algebras of Type G 2*

In this article we describe the right coideal subalgebras containing all group-like elements of the two-parameter quantum group U _q (𝔤), where 𝔤 is a simple Lie algebra of type G ₂, while the main parameter of quantization q is not a root of 1. As a consequence, we determine that there are precisely 60 different right coideal subalgebras containing all group-like elements. If the multiplicative order t of q is finite, t > 4, t ≠ 6, then the same classification remains valid for homogeneous right coideal subalgebras of the two-parameter version of the small Lusztig quantum group u _q (𝔤).
