On the distribution of prime divisors in Krull monoid algebras

In the present work, we prove that every class of the divisor class group of a Krull monoid algebra contains infinitely many prime divisors. Several attempts to this result have been made in the literature so far, unfortunately with open gaps. We present a complete proof of this fact.     

A note on GK dimension of skew polynomial extensions

Let be a finitely generated commutative domain over an algebraically closed field , an algebra endomorphism of , and a -derivation of . Then if and only if is locally algebraic in the sense that every finite dimensional subspace of is contained in a finite dimensional -stable subspace.

Similarly, if is a finitely generated field over , a -endomorphism of , and a -derivation of , then if and only if is an automorphism of finite order.

     

On ideal extensions of partial monounary algebras

In the present paper we introduce the notion of an ideal of a partial monounary algebra. Further, for an ideal (I, f _I ) of a partial monounary algebra (A, f _A ) we define the quotient partial monounary algebra (A, f _A )/(I, f _I ). Let (X, f _X ), (Y, f _Y ) be partial monounary algebras. We describe all partial monounary algebras (P, f _P ) such that (X, f _X ) is an ideal of (P, f _P ) and (P, f _P )/(X, f _X ) is isomorphic to (Y, f _Y ).

Essential extensions, excellent extensions and finitely presented dimension

In Section 1 of this paper, we investigate the finitely presented dimension of an essential extension for a module, and obtain results concerning an essential extension of a torsion-free module. We partially answer the question: When is an essential extension of a finitely presented module (an almost finitely presented module) also finitely presented (almost finitely presented)? In Section 2, we study theC-excellent extensions and the finitely presented dimensions. We obtain some results on the homological dimensions of matrix rings and group rings.     

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.     

Enveloping algebras of double Poisson-Ore extensions

It is proved that the Poisson enveloping algebra of a double Poisson-Ore extension is an iterated double Ore extension. As an application, properties that are preserved under iterated double Ore extensions are invariants of the Poisson enveloping algebra of a double Poisson-Ore extension.     

Subalgebra extensions of partial monounary algebras

For a subalgebra B of a partial monounary algebra A we define the quotient partial monounary algebra A/B. Let B, B, C be partial monounary algebras. In this paper we give a construction of all partial monounary algebras A such that B is a subalgebra of A and C ≅ A/B.     

Graded-division algebras and Galois extensions

Graded-division algebras are building blocks in the theory of finite-dimensional associative algebras graded by a group G. If G is abelian, they can be described, using a loop construction, in terms of central simple graded-division algebras.On the other hand, given a finite abelian group G, any central simple G-graded-division algebra over a field $\mathbb{F}$ is determined, thanks to a result of Picco and Platzeck, by its class in the (ordinary) Brauer group of $\mathbb{F}$ and the isomorphism class of a G-Galois extension of $\mathbb{F}$.This connection is used to classify the simple G-Galois extensions of $\mathbb{F}$ in terms of a Galois field extension $\mathbb{L}/\mathbb{F}$ with Galois group isomorphic to a quotient $G/K$ and an element in the quotient ${\mathrm{\text{Z}}}^2(K,{\mathbb{L}}^{\times })/{\mathrm{\text{B}}}^2(K,{\mathbb{F}}^{\times })$ subject to certain conditions. Non-simple G-Galois extensions are induced from simple T-Galois extensions for a subgroup T of G. We also classify finite-dimensional G-graded-division algebras and, as an application, finite G-graded-division rings.     

Central extensions of some Lie algebras

We consider three Lie algebras: , the Lie algebra of all derivations on the algebra of formal Laurent series; the Lie algebra of all differential operators on ; and the Lie algebra of all differential operators on We prove that each of these Lie algebras has an essentially unique nontrivial central extension.

     

Dorroh extensions of algebras and coalgebras

We study Dorroh extensions of algebras and Dorroh extensions of coalgebras. Their structures are described. Some properties of these extensions are presented. We also introduce the finite duals of algebras and modules which are not necessarily unital. Using these finite duals, we determine the dual relations between the two kinds of extensions.     

Ideal extensions of graph algebras

Let A and B be graph algebras. In this paper we present the notion of an ideal in a graph algebra and prove that an ideal extension of A by B always exists. We describe (up to isomorphism) all such extensions.     

Injective dimension of Weyl algebras over affine coefficient rings

The concern of this paper is to derive formulas for the injective dimension of then- th Weyl algebraA _n (R) in casek is a field of characteristic zero andR is a commutative affinek-algebra of finite injective dimension. For the casen=1 we prove a more general result from which the above result follows. Such formulas can be viewed as generalizations of the corresponding results given by J. C. McConnell in the caseR has finite global dimension.Project supported in part by the National Natural Science Foundation for Youth
