Semigroup graded algebras and graded PI-exponent

Let S be a semigroup. We study the structure of graded-simple S-graded algebras A and the exponential rate PIexp ^S-gr(A):= lim_n→∞ \(\sqrt[n]{{c_n^{S - gr}\left( A \right)}}\) of growth of codimensions c _n ^S-gr (A) of their graded polynomial identities. This is of great interest since such algebras can have non-integer PIexp ^S-gr(A) despite being finite dimensional and associative. In addition, such algebras can have a non-trivial Jacobson radical J(A). All this is in strong contrast with the case when S is a group since in the group case J(A) is trivial, PIexp ^S-gr(A) is always integer and, if the base field is algebraically closed, then PIexp ^S-gr(A) equals dimA. Without any restrictions on the base field F, we classify graded-simple S-graded algebras A for a class of semigroups S which is complementary to the class of groups. We explicitly describe the structure of J(A) showing that J(A) is built up of pieces of a maximal S-graded semisimple subalgebra of A which turns out to be simple. When F is algebraically closed, we get an upper bound for \({\overline {\lim } _{n \to \infty }}\sqrt[n]{{c_n^{S - gr}\left( A \right)}}\). If A/J(A) ≈ M ₂(F) and S is a right zero band, we show that this upper bound is sharp and PIexp ^S-gr(A) indeed exists. In particular, we present an infinite family of graded-simple algebras A with arbitrarily large non-integer PIexp ^S-gr(A).     

Nil ideals of finite codimension in alternative Noetherian algebras

Alternative (right) Noetherian algebras are considered. It is proved that, in these algebras, the nil ideals of finite codimension are nilpotent, which generalizes the corresponding Zhevlakov’s result. As a corollary, we describe just infinite alternative nonassociative algebras (for the field characteristic distinct from 2).     

On -differential graded algebras

We introduce the concept of N-differential graded algebras (N-dga), and study the moduli space of deformations of the differential of an N-dga. We prove that it is controlled by what we call the (M,N)-Maurer–Cartan equation.     

Gorenstein differential graded algebras

We propose a definition of Gorenstein Differential Graded Algebra. In order to give examples, we introduce the technical notion of Gorenstein morphism. This enables us to prove the following: Theorem:Let A be a noetherian local commutative ring, let L be a bounded complex of finitely generated projective A-modules which is not homotopy equivalent to zero, and let ɛ=Hom _A (L, L)be the endomorphism Differential Graded Algebra of L. Then ɛ is a Gorenstein Differential Graded Algebra if and only if A is a Gorenstein ring. Theorem:Let A be a noetherian local commutative ring with a sequence of elements a=(a ₁,…,a _n )in the maximal ideal, and let K(a)be the Koszul complex of a.Then K(a)is a Gorenstein Differential Graded Algebra if and only if A is a Gorenstein ring. Theorem:Let A be a noetherian local commutative ring containing a field k, and let X be a simply connected topological space with dim _k H*(X;k)<∞,which has poincaré duality over k. Let C*(X;A)be the singular cochain Differential Graded Algebra of X with coefficients in A. Then C*(X; A)is a Gorenstein Differential Graded Algebra if and only if A is a Gorenstein ring. The second of these theorems is a generalization of a result by Avramov and Golod from [4].     

Stable equivalences of graded algebras

We extend the notion of stable equivalence to the class of locally finite graded algebras. For such an algebra Λ, we focus on the Krull–Schmidt category gr_Λ of finitely generated -graded Λ-modules with degree 0 maps, and the stable category obtained by factoring out those maps that factor through a graded projective module. We say that Λ and Γ are graded stably equivalent if there is an equivalence that commutes with the grading shift. Adapting arguments of Auslander and Reiten involving functor categories, we show that a graded stable equivalence α commutes with the syzygy operator (where defined) and preserves finitely presented modules. As a result, we see that if Λ is right noetherian (resp. right graded coherent), then so is any graded stably equivalent algebra. Furthermore, if Λ is right noetherian or k is artinian, we use almost split sequences to show that a graded stable equivalence preserves finite length modules. Of particular interest in the nonartinian case, we prove that any graded stable equivalence involving an algebra Λ with socΛ=0 must be a graded Morita equivalence.     

Epsilon multiplicity for graded algebras

The notion of ε-multiplicity was originally defined by Ulrich and Validashti as a limsup and they used it to detect integral dependence of modules. It is important to know if it can be realized as a limit. In this article we show that the relative ε-multiplicity of reduced standard graded algebras over an excellent local ring exists as a limit. We also obtain some important special cases of Cutkosky's results concerning ε-multiplicity, as corollaries of our main theorem.     

Hilbert norms for graded algebras

This paper presents a solution to a problem from superanalysis about the existence of Hilbert-Banach superalgebras. Two main results are derived:

1) There exist Hilbert norms on some graded algebras (infinite-dimensional superalgebras included) with respect to which the multiplication is continuous.

2) Such norms cannot be chosen to be submultiplicative and equal to one on the unit of the algebra.

     

Idempotent comultiplications on graded algebras

We classify all idempotent comultiplications on a graded anticommutative algebra up to degree 3, provided its components are torsion free, and topologically realize all algebraic possibilities. Then we extend some results to dimension n and obtain topological consequences about closed n-manifolds with cohomology of special type.     

The graded modules for the graded contact cartan algebras

In this paper we investigate the graded modules for the graded contact Cartan algebras K(n, m) and K(n). For a canonical basis of uPTG module, we derive a commutator formula and then realize Shen's mixed product module in uPTG module ν(n, m) for H(n, m). Considering the Poisson subalgebra K as 1-dimensional central extension of H(n,m), we describe the irreducible PTG modules for K(n,m) and K(n) respectively. In particular, for arbitrary K(n,m), we recover Holmes' work for K(n,1)     

Lie ideals of graded associative algebras

We study the Lie structure of graded associative algebras. Essentially, we analyze the relation between Lie and associative graded ideals, and between Lie and associative graded derivations. Gathering together results on both directions, we compute maximal graded algebras of quotients of graded Lie algebras that arise from associative algebras. We also show that the Lie algebra Der _gr (A) of graded derivations of a graded semiprime associative algebra is strongly non-degenerate (modulo a certain ideal containing the center of Der _gr (A)).     

Lifts as isomorphisms of graded algebras

Lifts of tensor fields from a manifold to a tangent fiber of this manifold are investigated under the condition that there are connections in the manifold.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 9, No. 3, pp. 239–247, March, 1971.
