Equivariant deformations of the affine multicone over a flag variety

We prove that the invariant Hilbert scheme parameterising the equivariant deformations of the affine multicone over a flag variety is, under certain hypotheses, an affine space. More specifically, we obtain that the isomorphism classes of equivariant deformations of such a multicone are in correspondence with the orbits of a well-determined wonderful variety.     

Deformation of isolated hypersurface singularities and their moduli algebras

By the using of determinantal varieties from moduli algebras of hypersurface singularites the relation of the deformation of hypersurface singularities and the deformation of their moduli algebras is studied. For a type of hypersurface singularities a weak Torelli type result is proved. This weak Torelli type result showes that for families of hypersurface singularities the moduli algebras can be used to distinguish the complex structures of singularities at least in some weak sence.

Operads and varieties of algebras defined by polylinear identities

We show that varieties of algebras over abstract clones and over the corresponding operads are rationally equivalent. We introduce the class of operads (which we call commutative for definiteness) such that the varieties of algebras over these operads resemble in a sense categories of modules over commutative rings. In particular, the notions of a polylinear mapping and the tensor product of algebras. The categories of modules over commutative rings and the category of convexors are examples of varieties over commutative operads. By analogy with the theory of linear multioperator algebras, we develop a theory of C-linear multioperator algebras; in particular, of algebras, defined by C-polylinear identities (here C is a commutative operad). We introduce and study symmetric C-linear operads. The main result of this article is as follows: A variety of C-linear multioperator algebras is defined by C-polylinear identities if and only if it is rationally equivalent to a variety of algebras over a symmetric C-linear operad.     

Infinite independent systems of the identities of the associative algebra over an infinite field of characteristic <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis> > 0

In this paper some infinitely based varieties of groups are constructed and these results are transferred to the associative algebras (or Lie algebras) over an infinite field of an arbitrary positive characteristic.     

Grothendieck topologies and deformation Theory II

Starting from a sheaf of associative algebras over a scheme we show thatits deformation theory is described by cohomologies of a canonical object,called the cotangent complex, in the derived category of sheaves ofbi-modules over this sheaf of algebras. The passage from deformations tocohomology is based on considering a site which is naturally constructed outof our sheaf of algebras. It turns out that on the one hand, cohomology ofcertain sheaves on this site control deformations, and on the other hand,they can be rewritten in terms of the category of sheaves of bi-modules.     

LS algebras and application to Schubert varieties

In this paper we introduce LS algebras. We study their general properties and apply these results to Schubert varieties. Our main achievement is that any Schubert variety admits a flat deformation to a union of normal toric varieties. A new proof of Cohen-Macaulayness (and thus normality) for Schubert varieties is also obtained.     

Necessary and sufficient conditions of polynomial growth of varieties of Leibniz-Poisson algebras

Leibniz-Poisson algebras are generalizations of Poisson algebras. We give equivalent conditions of polynomial growth of a variety of Leibniz-Poisson algebras over a field of characteristic zero. We find all varieties of Leibniz-Poisson algebras with almost polynomial growth belonging to a certain class of varieties.     

Algebraic coalitions

The idea of an algebra in is introduced. Within congruence modular varieties such algebras are shown to be the abelian algebras with a one-element subalgebra. This leads on to the notion of algebraic coalition, which is characterized for congruence modular varieties and for varieties of Jónsson–Tarski algebras. This characterization displays an intimate relationship between algebraic coalitions, Gumm difference terms, and the centre of an algebra.

Construction of dialgebras through bimodules over algebras

The varieties of dialgebras (also known as Loday-type algebras) over a given type of algebra have been the subject of multiple recent developments. We provide here a construction of such dialgebra varieties via bimodules over an algebra and a surjective equivariant map. Our construction is equivalent to the KP construction (Kolesnikov–Pozhidaev construction) when departing from the set of linearized identities of the algebra variety. The novel construction simplifies the obtention of the dialgebra equations without forcing a complete linearization of the algebra identities. We illustrate the use of the novel construction providing the dialgebras associated to several varieties of algebras, including those over diverse Lie admissible algebras. We provide some novel explorations on the structure of the dialgebras which are easily articulated through our construction.     

Spectral characterization of multicone graphs

A multicone graph is defined to be the join of a clique and a regular graph. Based on Zhou and Cho’s result [B. Zhou, H.H. Cho, Remarks on spectral radius and Laplacian eigenvalues of a graph, Czech. Math. J. 55 (130) (2005), 781–790], the spectral characterization of multicone graphs is investigated. Particularly, we determine a necessary and sufficient condition for two multicone graphs to be cospectral graphs and investigate the structures of graphs cospectral to a multicone graph. Additionally, lower and upper bounds for the largest eigenvalue of a multicone graph are given.     

Standard Monomial Theory for Wonderful Varieties

A general setting for a standard monomial theory on a multiset is introduced and applied to the Cox ring of a wonderful variety. This gives a degeneration result of the Cox ring to a multicone over a partial flag variety. Further, we deduce that the Cox ring has rational singularities.     

Stability of the Blok Theorem

W. Blok proved that varieties of boolean algebras with a single unary operator uniquely determined by their class of perfect algebras (i.e., duals of Kripke frames) are exactly those which are intersections of conjugate varieties of splitting algebras. The remaining ones share their class of perfect algebras with uncountably many other varieties. This theorem is known as the Blok dichotomy or the Blok alternative. We show that the Blok dichotomy holds when perfect algebras in the formulation are replaced by ω-complete algebras, atomic algebras with completely additive operators or algebras admitting residuals. We also generalize the Blok dichotomy for lattices of varieties of boolean algebras with finitely many unary operators. In addition, we answer a question posed by W. Dziobiak and show that classes of lattice-complete algebras or duals of Scott-Montague frames in a given variety are not determined by their subdirectly irreducible members.

Equivalent conditions of polynomial growth of a variety of Poisson algebras

Equivalent conditions of the polynomial codimension growth of a variety of Poisson algebras over a field of characteristic zero are presented and it is shown that there are only two varieties of Poisson algebras with almost polynomial growth.     

Equivalence for varieties in general and for $ {\cal BOOL} $ in particular

The varieties equivalent to a given variety are characterized in a purely categorical way. In fact they are described as the models of those Lawvere theories which are Morita equivalent to the Lawvere theory of which therefore are characterized first. Along this way the conceptual meanings of the n-th matrix power construction of a variety and McKenzie's σ-modification of classes of algebras [22] become transparent. Besides other applications not only the well known equivalences between the varieties of Post algebras of fixed orders m and the variety of Boolean algebras are obtained; moreover it can be shown that the varieties are the only varieties equivalent to . The results then are generalized to quasivarieties and more general classes of algebras. Received November 4, 1998; accepted in final form September 15, 1999.     

A radical splitting theorem for bernstein algebras

We introduce the notion of radical in Bernstein algebras and prove a splitting theorem, that is an analog of a well-known statement in classical varieties of algebras. Note that in this situation Bernstein algebras are more similar to solvable Lie and Malcev algebras (see [4], [6]) than to associative, Jordan or Binary Lie ones.

Throughout the paper all algebras and vector spaces are finite dimensional over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0.     

Correlation of Poisson algebras and Lie algebras in the language of identities

In the paper, the varieties of Poisson algebras whose ideals of identities contain the identity {x, y}· {z, t} = 0 are studied, and the correlation of these varieties with varieties of Lie algebras is investigated. A variety of Poisson algebras of almost exponential growth is presented. An example of a variety of Poisson algebras with fractional exponent is also given.     

Quantized Weyl algebras at roots of unity

We classify the centers of the quantized Weyl algebras that are polynomial identity algebras and derive explicit formulas for the discriminants of these algebras over a general class of polynomial central subalgebras. Two different approaches to these formulas are given: one based on Poisson geometry and deformation theory, and the other using techniques from quantum cluster algebras. Furthermore, we classify the PI quantized Weyl algebras that are free over their centers and prove that their discriminants are locally dominating and effective. This is applied to solve the automorphism and isomorphism problems for this family of algebras and their tensor products.     

On the Kurosh problem in varieties of algebras

We consider a couple of versions of the classical Kurosh problem (whether there is an infinite-dimensional algebraic algebra) for varieties of linear multioperator algebras over a field. We show that, given an arbitrary signature, there is a variety of algebras of this signature such that the free algebra of the variety contains polylinear elements of arbitrarily large degree, while the clone of every such element satisfies some nontrivial identity. If, in addition, the number of binary operations is at least 2, then each such clone may be assumed to be finite-dimensional. Our approach is the following: we cast the problem in the language of operads and then apply the usual homological constructions in order to adopt Golod’s solution to the original Kurosh problem. This paper is expository, so that some proofs are omitted. At the same time, the general relations of operads, algebras, and varieties are widely discussed.     

Interpolation properties in the extensions of the logic of inequality

We consider the modal logics wK4 and DL as well as the corresponding weakly transitive modal algebras and DL-algebras. We prove that there exist precisely 16 amalgamable varieties of DL-algebras. We find a criterion for the weak amalgamation property of varieties of weakly transitive modal algebras, solve the deductive interpolation problem for extensions of the logic of inequality DL, and obtain a weak interpolation criterion over wK4.
