Algebras, hyperalgebras, nonassociative bialgebras and loops

Sabinin algebras are a broad generalization of Lie algebras that include Lie, Malcev and Bol algebras as very particular examples. We present a construction of a universal enveloping algebra for Sabinin algebras, and the corresponding Poincaré-Birkhoff-Witt Theorem. A nonassociative counterpart of Hopf algebras is also introduced and a version of the Milnor-Moore Theorem is proved. Loop algebras and universal enveloping algebras of Sabinin algebras are natural examples of these nonassociative Hopf algebras. Identities of loops move to identities of nonassociative Hopf algebras by a linearizing process. In this way, nonassociative algebras and Hopf algebras interlace smoothly.     

Infinite-dimensional 3-Lie algebras and their connections to Harish-Chandra modules

We construct two kinds of infinite-dimensional 3-Lie algebras from a given commutative associative algebra, and show that they are all canonical Nambu 3-Lie algebras. We relate their inner derivation algebras to Witt algebras, and then study the regular representations of these 3-Lie algebras and the natural representations of the inner derivation algebras. In particular, for the second kind of 3-Lie algebras, we find that their regular representations are Harish-Chandra modules, and the inner derivation algebras give rise to intermediate series modules of the Witt algebras and contain the smallest full toroidal Lie algebras without center.

Representations of Frobenius-type triangular matrix algebras

The aim of this paper is mainly to build a new representation-theoretic realization of finite root systems through the so-called Frobenius-type triangular matrix algebras by the method of reflection functors over any field. Finally, we give an analog of APR-tilting module for this class of algebras. The major conclusions contains the known results as special cases, e.g., that for path algebras over an algebraically closed field and for path algebras with relations from symmetrizable cartan matrices. Meanwhile, it means the corresponding results for some other important classes of algebras, that is, the path algebras of quivers over Frobenius algebras and the generalized path algebras endowed by Frobenius algebras at vertices.     

Centroids of Zinbiel Algebras

Zinbiel algebras were introduced by a way of Koszul dual to Leibniz algebras and connected with commutative associate algebras, pre-Lie algebras and dendriform algebras etc. In this article, the centroids of Zinbiel algebra are discussed. We study the proprieties of centroids and also determinate the centroids of Zinbiel algebras up to dimension ≤4. As consequent, we get the conclusion that the centroids of 2-dimensional Zinbiel algebras are not small and 3,4-dimensional Zinbiel algebras are almost small.     

Realizing ultragraph Leavitt path algebras as Steinberg algebras

In this article, we realize the finite range ultragraph Leavitt path algebras as Steinberg algebras. This realization allows us to use the groupoid approach to obtain structural results about these algebras. Using the skew product of groupoids, we show that ultragraph Leavitt path algebras are graded von Neumann regular rings. We characterize strongly graded ultragraph Leavitt path algebras and show that every ultragraph Leavitt path algebra is semiprimitive. Moreover, we characterize irreducible representations of ultragraph Leavitt path algebras. We also show that ultragraph Leavitt path algebras can be realized as Cuntz-Pimsner rings.     

Cylindric algebras and finite polyadic algebras

In this survey paper the short history of cylindric and finitary polyadic algebras (term-definitionally equivalent to quasi-polyadic algebras) is sketched, and the two concepts are compared. Roughly speaking, finitary polyadic algebras constitute a subclass of cylindric algebras that include a transposition operator being strong enough. We discuss the following question: should the definition of cylindric algebras include a transposition operator? Results confirm that the existence of a transposition operator ensures representability (by relativised set algebras). The different variants of cylindric algebras including a transposition operator play an important role in the theory of cylindric-like algebras.     

Operator algebras of functions

We present some general theorems about operator algebras that are algebras of functions on sets, including theories of local algebras, residually finite-dimensional operator algebras and algebras that can be represented as the scalar multipliers of a vector-valued reproducing kernel Hilbert space. We use these to further develop a quantized function theory for various domains that extends and unifies Agler's theory of commuting contractions and the Arveson-Drury-Popescu theory of commuting row contractions. We obtain analogous factorization theorems, prove that the algebras that we obtain are dual operator algebras and show that for many domains, supremums over all commuting tuples of operators satisfying certain inequalities are obtained over all commuting tuples of matrices.     

Affine cellular algebras

Graham and Lehrer have defined cellular algebras and developed a theory that allows in particular to classify simple representations of finite dimensional cellular algebras. Many classes of finite dimensional algebras, including various Hecke algebras and diagram algebras, have been shown to be cellular, and the theory due to Graham and Lehrer successfully has been applied to these algebras.We will extend the framework of cellular algebras to algebras that need not be finite dimensional over a field. Affine Hecke algebras of type A and infinite dimensional diagram algebras like the affine Temperley–Lieb algebras are shown to be examples of our definition. The isomorphism classes of simple representations of affine cellular algebras are shown to be parameterised by the complement of finitely many subvarieties in a finite disjoint union of affine varieties. In this way, representation theory of non-commutative algebras is linked with commutative algebra. Moreover, conditions on the cell chain are identified that force the algebra to have finite global cohomological dimension and its derived category to admit a stratification; these conditions are shown to be satisfied for the affine Hecke algebra of type A if the quantum parameter is not a root of the Poincaré polynomial.     

Finitistic dimension and Igusa–Todorov algebras

The notion of Igusa–Todorov algebras is introduced in connection with the (little) finitistic dimension conjecture, and the conjecture is proved for those algebras. Such algebras contain many known classes of algebras over which the finitistic dimension conjecture holds, e.g., algebras with the representation dimension at most 3, algebras with radical cube zero, monomial algebras and left serial algebras, etc. It is an open question whether all artin algebras are Igusa–Todorov. We provide some methods to construct many new classes of (2-)Igusa–Todorov algebras and thus obtain many algebras such that the finitistic dimension conjecture holds. In particular, we show that the class of 2-Igusa–Todorov algebras is closed under taking endomorphism algebras of projective modules. Hence, if all quasi-hereditary algebras are 2-Igusa–Todorov, then all artin algebras are 2-Igusa–Todorov by [V. Dlab, C.M. Ringel, Every semiprimary ring is the endomorphism ring of a projective module over a quasihereditary ring, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 107 (1) (1989) 1–5] and have finite finitistic dimension.     

Nijenhuis algebras, NS algebras, and N-dendriform algebras

In this paper, we study (associative) Nijenhuis algebras, with emphasis on the relationship between the category of Nijenhuis algebras and the categories of NS algebras and related algebras. This is in analogy to the well-known theory of the adjoint functor from the category of Lie algebras to that of associative algebras, and the more recent results on the adjoint functor from the categories of dendriform and tridendriform algebras to that of Rota-Baxter algebras. We first give an explicit construction of free Nijenhuis algebras and then apply it to obtain the universal enveloping Nijenhuis algebra of an NS algebra. We further apply the construction to determine the binary quadratic nonsymmetric algebra, called the N-dendriform algebra, that is compatible with the Nijenhuis algebra. As it turns out, the N-dendriform algebra has more relations than the NS algebra.     

The structure of AS-Gorenstein algebras

In this paper, we define a notion of AS-Gorenstein algebra for N-graded algebras, and show that symmetric AS-regular algebras of Gorenstein parameter 1 are exactly preprojective algebras of quasi-Fano algebras. This result can be compared with the fact that symmetric graded Frobenius algebras of Gorenstein parameter −1 are exactly trivial extensions of finite-dimensional algebras. The results of this paper suggest that there is a strong interaction between classification problems in noncommutative algebraic geometry and those in representation theory of finite-dimensional algebras.

Affine and degenerate affine BMW algebras: actions on tensor space

The affine and degenerate affine Birman–Murakami–Wenzl (BMW) algebras arise naturally in the context of Schur–Weyl duality for orthogonal and symplectic quantum groups and Lie algebras, respectively. Cyclotomic BMW algebras, affine and cyclotomic Hecke algebras, and their degenerate versions are quotients of the affine and degenerate affine BMW algebras. In this paper, we explain how the affine and degenerate affine BMW algebras are tantalizers (tensor power centralizer algebras) by defining actions of the affine braid group and the degenerate affine braid algebra on tensor space and showing that, in important cases, these actions induce actions of the affine and degenerate affine BMW algebras. We then exploit the connection to quantum groups and Lie algebras to determine universal parameters for the affine and degenerate affine BMW algebras. Finally, we show that the universal parameters are central elements—the higher Casimir elements for orthogonal and symplectic enveloping algebras and quantum groups.     

Congenial algebras: Extensions and examples

We study the congeniality property of algebras, as defined by Bao, He, and Zhang, to establish a version of Auslander’s theorem for various families of filtered algebras. It is shown that the property is preserved under homomorphic images and tensor products under some mild conditions. Examples of congenial algebras in this paper include enveloping algebras of Lie superalgebras, iterated differential operator rings, quantized Weyl algebras, down-up algebras, and symplectic reflection algebras.

ETALE DESCENT OF DERIVATIONS

We study étale descent of derivations of algebras with values in a module. The algebras under consideration are twisted forms of algebras over rings, and apply to all classes of algebras, notably associative and Lie algebras, such as the multiloop algebras that appear in the construction of extended affine Lie algebras. The main result is Theorem 2.7.     

Cellularity and the Jones basic construction

We establish a framework for cellularity of algebras related to the Jones basic construction. Our framework allows a uniform proof of cellularity of Brauer algebras, ordinary and cyclotomic BMW algebras, walled Brauer algebras, partition algebras, and others. Our cellular bases are labeled by paths on certain branching diagrams rather than by tangles. Moreover, for the class of algebras that we study, we show that the cellular structures are compatible with restriction and induction of modules.     

Inductions and restrictions on towers of cellularly stratified diagram algebras

Hartmann et al. defined the concept of cellularly stratified algebras that combine the features of both cellular algebras and stratified algebras. Many important diagram algebras in mathematics and physics, such as some Brauer, partition and BMW algebras, are cellularly stratified algebras, and each of these forms a tower of algebras. This article gives the concept of towers of cellularly stratified algebras in an axiomatic manner, and studies it in terms of induction and restriction functors. In particular, for certain towers of cellularly stratified algebras, we provide a criterion for semi-simplicity by using the cohomology groups of cell modules.     

Geometric invariants for nilpotent metric Lie algebras with applications to moduli spaces of nilsoliton metrics

We present new tools for determining whether two nilpotent metric Lie algebras are in the same isometry class. We exhibit new examples of continuous families of nilsoliton metric Lie algebras, including deformations of uniform metric Lie algebras. We show that all algebras of generalized Heisenberg type except for Heisenberg algebras and two others admit deformations by nilsoliton metric Lie algebras.
