Some Homological Properties of Skew PBW Extensions

We prove that if R is a left Noetherian and left regular ring then the same is true for any bijective skew PBW extension A of R. From this we get Serre's Theorem for such extensions. We show that skew PBW extensions and its localizations include a wide variety of rings and algebras of interest for modern mathematical physics such as PBW extensions, well-known classes of Ore algebras, operator algebras, diffusion algebras, quantum algebras, quadratic algebras in 3-variables, skew quantum polynomials, among many others. We estimate the global, Krull and Goldie dimensions, and also Quillen's K-groups.     

The class of infinite dimensional neat reducts of quasi‐polyadic algebras is not axiomatizable

SC, CA, QA and QEA denote the classes of Pinter's substitution algebras, Tarski's cylindric algebras, Halmos' quasi‐polyadic algebras and quasi‐polyadic equality algebras, respectively. Let ω ≤ α < β and let K ∈ {SC,CA,QA,QEA}. We show that the class of α ‐dimensional neat reducts of algebras in K_β is not elementary. This solves a problem in [3]. Also our result generalizes results proved in [2] and [3]. (© 2006 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Complex Powers and Non-compact Manifolds

Abstract

We study the complex powers A ^z of an elliptic, strictly positive pseudodifferential operator A using an axiomatic method that combines the approaches of Guillemin and Seeley. In particular, we introduce a class of algebras, called “Guillemin algebras, ” whose definition was inspired by Guillemin [Guillemin, V. (1985). A new proof of Weyl's formula on the asymptotic distribution of eigenvalues. Adv. in Math. 55:131–160]. A Guillemin algebra can be thought of as an algebra of “abstract pseudodifferential operators.” Most algebras of pseudodifferential operators belong to this class. Several results typical for algebras of pseudodifferential operators (asymptotic completeness, construction of Sobolev spaces, boundedness between appropriate Sobolev spaces,…) generalize to Guillemin algebras. Most important, this class of algebras provides a convenient framework to obtain precise estimates at infinity for A ^z , when A > 0 is elliptic and defined on a non-compact manifold, provided that a suitable ideal of regularizing operators is specified (a submultiplicative Ψ*-algebra). We shall use these results in a forthcoming paper to study pseudodifferential operators and Sobolev spaces on manifolds with a Lie structure at infinity (a certain class of non-compact manifolds that has emerged from Melrose's work on geometric scattering theory [Melrose, R. B. (1995). Geometric Scattering Theory. Stanford Lectures. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press]).     

Identities of Conformal Algebras and Pseudoalgebras

For a given conformal algebra C, we write the correspondence between identities of the coefficient algebra Coeff C and identities of C itself as a pseudoalgebra. In particular, we write the defining relations of Jordan, alternative, and Mal'cev conformal algebras, and show that the analogue of the Artin's Theorem does not hold for alternative conformal algebras.     

A proof that commutative artinian rings are noetherian

Abstract

Integrals in Hopf algebras are an essential tool in studying finite dimensional Hopf algebras and their action on rings. Over fields it has been shown by Sweedler that the existence of integrals in a Hopf algebra is equivalent to the Hopf algebra being finite dimensional. In this paper we examine how much of this is true Hopf algebras over rings. We show that over any commutative ring R that is not a field there exists a Hopf algebra H over R containing a non-zero integral but not being finitely generated as R-module. On the contrary we show that Sweedler's equivalence is still valid for free Hopf algebras or projective Hopf algebras over integral domains. Analogously for a left H-module algebra A we study the influence of non-zero left A#H-linear maps from A to A#H on H being finitely generated as R-module. Examples and application to separability are given.     

On Two Families of Hopf Algebras of Dimension 2 m

Abstract

In this paper we construct two families of semisimple Hopf algebras of dimension 2 ⁿ⁺¹, n ≥ 3. They are all constructed as Radford's biproducts. For these examples and their duals we compute their grouplike elements, centers, character algebras and Grothendieck rings. Comparing these facts we are able to show that depending on the dimension, representatives of one of the families are selfdual. We also prove that Hopf algebras from these families are neither triangular nor cotriangular and that their cocycle deformations are trivial.     

Modal operators on bounded commutative residuated <Emphasis Type="Italic">ℓ</Emphasis>-monoids

Bounded commutative residuated lattice ordered monoids (Rℓ-monoids) are a common generalization of, e.g., Heyting algebras and BL-algebras, i.e., algebras of intuitionistic logic and basic fuzzy logic, respectively. Modal operators (special cases of closure operators) on Heyting algebras were studied in [MacNAB, D. S.: Modal operators on Heyting algebras, Algebra Universalis 12 (1981), 5–29] and on MV-algebras in [HARLENDEROVá,M.—RACHŮNEK, J.: Modal operators on MV-algebras, Math. Bohem. 131 (2006), 39–48]. In the paper we generalize the notion of a modal operator for general bounded commutative Rℓ-monoids and investigate their properties also for certain derived algebras.

Polynomial Time Uniform Word Problems

We have two polynomial time results for the uniform word problem for a quasivariety Q: (a) The uniform word problem for Q can be solved in polynomial time iff one can find a certain congruence on finite partial algebras in polynomial time. (b) Let Q* be the relational class determined by Q. If any universal Horn class between the universal closure S(Q*) and the weak embedding closure S?(Q*) of Q* is finitely axiomatizable then the uniform word problem for Q is solvable in polynomial time. This covers Skolem's 1920 solution to the uniform word problem for lattices and Evans' 1953 applications of the weak embeddability property for finite partial V algebras.     

Bounded degree of algebraic topological algebras

We give a short proof of theorems of Kaplansky and Slin'ko concerning the bounded degree of certain associative or Jordan algebraic topological algebras. This new proof even works for power-associative algebras.     

Homology of Centralizers

Given a group Π, we study the group homology of centralizers Π _g , g ? Π, and of their central quotients Π _g /〈 g〉. This study is motivated by the structure of the Hochschild and the cyclic homology of group algebras, and is based on Quillen's approach to the cyclic homology of algebras via algebra extensions. A method of computing the de Rham complex of a group algebra by means of a Gruenberg resolution is also developed.     

Generalizations of Strassen's Equations for Secant Varieties of Segre Varieties

In this article, we compute the center of the infinitesimal Hecke algebras H _z associated to 𝔰𝔩₂; then using nontriviality of the center, we study representations of these algebras in the framework of the BGG category 𝒪. We also discuss central elements in infinitesimal Hecke algebras over 𝔤𝔩 _n and 𝔰𝔭(2n) for all n. We end by proving an analogue of Duflo's theorem for H _z .     

Nilpotent Ideals in Graded Lie Algebras and Almost Constant-Free Derivations

It is proved that if a (?/p ?)-graded Lie algebra L, where p is a prime, has exactly d nontrivial grading components and dim L ₀ = m, then L has a nilpotent ideal of d-bounded nilpotency class and of finite (m,d)-bounded codimension. As a consequence, Jacobson's theorem on constant-free nilpotent Lie algebras of derivations is generalized to the almost constant-free case. Another application is for Lie algebras with almost fixed-point-free automorphisms.     

Generalized Shuffles Related to Nijenhuis and TD-Algebras

Shuffle type products are well known in mathematics and physics. They are intimately related to Loday's dendriform algebras and were extensively used to give explicit constructions of free Rota–Baxter algebras. In the literature there exist at least two other Rota–Baxter type algebras, namely, the Nijenhuis algebra and the so-called TD-algebra. The explicit construction of the free unital commutative Nijenhuis algebra uses a modified quasi-shuffle product, called the right-shift shuffle. We show that another modification of the quasi-shuffle, the so-called left-shift shuffle, can be used to give an explicit construction of the free unital commutative TD-algebra. We explore some basic properties of TD-operators. Our construction is related to Loday's unital commutative tridendriform algebra, including the involutive case. The concept of Rota–Baxter, Nijenhuis and TD-bialgebras is introduced at the end, and we show that any commutative bialgebra provides such objects.     

On Cartan Invariants and Blocks of Zassenhaus Algebras #

In this article, we determine the Cartan invariants for Zassenhaus algebras W(1,n). This is done by reducing representations of generalized restricted Cartan type Lie algebra W(1,n) to representations of restricted Lie algebras W(1,1) and of ± b𝔰 ± b𝔩(2), and then extending Feldvoss-Nakano's argument on W(1,1) to the case W(1,n).     

A Characterization of (2, n)-Semigroup of n-Place Functions and De Morgan (2, n)-Semigroup of n-Place Functions

In this article, by defining n Mann's compositions and one unary operation on the set of n-place functions over some set, we construct a De Morgan (2, n)-semigroup of n-place functions and so find an abstract characterization of this algebras.     

Cohomology of Oriented Tree Diagram Lie Algebras

Xu introduced a family of root-tree-diagram nilpotent Lie algebras of differential operators, in connection with evolution partial differential equations. We generalized his notion to more general oriented tree diagrams. These algebras are natural analogues of the maximal nilpotent Lie subalgebras of finite-dimensional simple Lie algebras. In this article, we use Hodge Laplacian to study the cohomology of these Lie algebras. The “total rank conjecture” and “b ₂-conjecture” for the algebras are proved. Moreover, we find the generating functions of the Betti numbers by means of Young tableaux for the Lie algebras associated with certain tree diagrams of single branch point. By these functions and Euler–Poincaré principle, we obtain analogues of the denominator identity for finite-dimensional simple Lie algebras. The result is a natural generalization of the Bott's classical result in the case of special linear Lie algebras.     

Little jordan clofford algebras

Unital quadratic Jordan algebras J(q, I) determined by nondegenerate quadratic forms with basepoints over a field axe called full Jordan Clifford algebras. In characteristic 2 they have ample outer ideals which are also simple; they come in 3 sizes, tiny, small, and large, where the large are full Clifford algebras but the tiny and small algebras are lacking some of their parts. The simple algebras played a role in Zelmanov's solution of the Burnside Problem. In this paper we will analyze these in more detail, determining their centroids and their local algebras; this is important in the classification of prime Jordan triples of Clifford type in arbitrary char-acterstics. In addition we make a careful charcterization of the tiny, small, and large Clifford algebras. We use this to straighten one or two missteps in a proof from the classification of simple algebras. An important role in our characterization is played by commutators, and we describe the Jor­dan commutator products and Bergmann formulas for Clifford algebras in general.     

Conservative algebras of 2-dimensional algebras,II

In 1990 Kantor defined the conservative algebra W(n) of all algebras (i.e. bilinear maps) on the n-dimensional vector space. If n>1, then the algebra W(n) does not belong to any well-known class of algebras (such as associative, Lie, Jordan, or Leibniz algebras). We describe automorphisms, one-sided ideals, and idempotents of W(2). Also similar problems are solved for the algebra W₂ of all commutative algebras on the 2-dimensional vector space and for the algebra S₂ of all commutative algebras with trace zero multiplication on the 2-dimensional vector space.     

Graded extended Lie-type algebras

The class of extended Lie-type algebras contains the ones of associative algebras, Lie algebras, Leibniz algebras, dual Leibniz algebras, pre-Lie algebras, and Lie-type algebras, etc. We focus on the class of extended Lie-type algebras graded by an Abelian group G and study its structure, by stating, under certain conditions, a second Wedderburn-type theorem for this class of algebras.     

The Validity Range of Two Complex Analysis Theorems

In this article we give complete characterizations of shift-invariant uniform algebras A_S on compact abelian groups, in which two of the classical theorems for analytic functions hold, namely, Radó's theorem for analytic extension and Riemann's theorem for removable singularities. Our characterization is in terms of algebraical properties of the semigroup S of non-zero Fourier coefficients of the functions in A_S .
