Hyper‐Archimedean BL‐algebras are MV‐algebras

Generalizations of Boolean elements of a BL‐algebra L are studied. By utilizing the MV‐center MV(L) of L, it is reproved that an element x ∈ L is Boolean iff x ∨ x * = 1 . L is called semi‐Boolean if for all x ∈ L, x * is Boolean. An MV‐algebra L is semi‐Boolean iff L is a Boolean algebra. A BL‐algebra L is semi‐Boolean iff L is an SBL‐algebra. A BL‐algebra L is called hyper‐Archimedean if for all x ∈ L, xⁿ is Boolean for some finite n ≥ 1. It is proved that hyper‐Archimedean BL‐algebras are MV‐algebras. The study has application in mathematical fuzzy logics whose Lindenbaum algebras are MV‐algebras or BL‐algebras. (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Simple algebras of Weyl type

Over a fieldF of arbitrary characteristic, we define the associative and the Lie algebras of Weyl type on the same vector spaceA[D] =A⊗F[D] from any pair of a commutative associative algebra,A with an identity element and the polynomial algebraF[D] of a commutative derivation subalgebraD ofA We prove thatA[D], as a Lie algebra (modulo its center) or as an associative algebra, is simple if and only ifA isD-simple andA[D] acts faithfully onA. Thus we obtain a lot of simple algebras. Su, Y., Zhao, K., Second cohornology group of generalized Witt type Lie algebras and certain representations, submitted to publication     

π-Complementation in the Unitisation and Multiplication Algebras of a Semiprime Algebra

π-complemented algebras are defined as those (not necessarily associative or unital) algebras such that each annihilator ideal is complemented by other annihilator ideal. For a given semiprime algebra A, we discuss the π-complementation of the unitisation algebra A ¹ of A. Moreover, if in addition the multiplication algebra ?(A) of A is also semiprime, we study the π-complementation in the algebras ?(A) and ?^?(A) (the multiplication ideal of A). In associative setting, we prove that A is π-complemented if and only if ?^?(A) is π-complemented, and that A ¹ π-complemented if and only if ?(A) is π-complemented.     

On (∈, ∈ ∨ q)‐fuzzy filters of R0‐algebras

In this paper, we introduce the notions of (∈, ∈ ∨ q)‐fuzzy filters and (∈, ∈ ∨ q)‐fuzzy Boolean (implicative) filters in R₀‐algebras and investigate some of their related properties. Some characterization theorems of these generalized fuzzy filters are derived. In particular, we prove that a fuzzy set in R₀‐algebras is an (∈, ∈ ∨ q)‐fuzzy Boolean filter if and only if it is an (∈, ∈ ∨ q)‐fuzzy implicative filter. Finally, we consider the concepts of implication‐based fuzzy Boolean (implicative) filters of R₀‐algebras (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

A class of non-nilpotent 2-solvable n-Lie algebras

This article concerns a class of finite-dimensional minimal non-nilpotent 2-solvable n-Lie algebras. It is shown that if L is a finite-dimensional minimal non-nilpotent 2-solvable n-Lie algebra, then L can be decomposed into a semi-direct of an ideal A and an (n ? 1)-dimensional subalgebra H ₀ of L. Furthermore, H ₀ acts irreducibly on A/A ¹, and H ₀ + A ¹ is a self-normalizing maximal subalgebra of L with the core A ¹, the derived algebra of A.     

Algebraic geometry over free metabelian lie algebras. I. U-algebras and universal classes

This paper is the first in a series of three, the object of which is to lay the foundations of algebraic geometry over the free metabelian Lie algebra F. In the current paper, we introduce the notion of a metabelian U-Lie algebra and establish connections between metabelian U-Lie algebras and special matrix Lie algebras. We define the Δ-localization of a metabelian U-Lie algebra A and the direct module extension of the Fitting radical of A and show that these algebras lie in the universal closure of A. __________ Translated from Fundamentalnaya i Prikladnaya Matematika, Vol. 9, No. 3, pp. 37–63, 2003.     

The Maximal Graded Left Quotient Algebra of a Graded Algebra1)

We construct the maximal graded left quotient algebra of every graded algebra A without homogeneous total right zero divisors as the direct limit of graded homomorphisms （of left A-modules） from graded dense left ideals of A into a graded left quotient algebra of A. In the case of a superalgebra, and with some extra hypothesis, we prove that the component in the neutral element of the group of the maximal graded left quotient algebra coincides with the maximal left quotient algebra of the component in the neutral element of the group of the superalgebra.     

A topology induced by uniformity on BL‐algebras

In this paper, we consider a collection of filters of a BL‐algebra A. We use the concept of congruence relation with respect to filters to construct a uniformity which induces a topology on A. We study the properties of this topology regarding different filters. (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

The Magnus Embedding for Right-Symmetric Algebras

We construct a basis for the universal multiplicative enveloping algebra U(A) of a right-symmetric algebra A. We prove an analog of the Magnus embedding for right-symmetric algebras; i.e., we prove that a right-symmetric algebra A/R ², where A is a free right-symmetric algebra, is embedded into the algebra of triangular matrices of the second order.     

Actions of Ore extensions and growth of polynomial H-identities

We show that if A is a finite-dimensional associative H-module algebra for an arbitrary Hopf algebra H, then the proof of the analog of Amitsur’s conjecture for H-codimensions of A can be reduced to the case when A is H-simple. (Here we do not require that the Jacobson radical of A is an H-submodule.) As an application, we prove that if A is a finite-dimensional associative H-module algebra where H is a Hopf algebra H over a field of characteristic 0 such that H is constructed by an iterated Ore extension of a finite-dimensional semisimple Hopf algebra by skew-primitive elements (e.g., H is a Taft algebra), then there exists integer PIexp^H(A). In order to prove this, we study the structure of algebras simple with respect to an action of an Ore extension.     

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.     

There do not exist minimal algebras between C*(X) and C(X) with prescribed real maximal ideal spaces

Let C(X) be the algebra of all real-valued continuous functions on a completely regular Hausdorff space X, and C*(X) the subalgebra of bounded functions. We prove that for any intermediate algebra A between C*(X) and C(X), other than C*(X), there exists a smaller intermediate algebra with the same real maximal ideals as in A. The space X is called A-compact if any real maximal ideal in A corresponds to a point in X. It follows that, for a noncompact space X, there does not exist any minimal intermediate algebra A for which A is A-compact. This completes the answer to a question raised by Redlin and Watson in 1987.     

Tree Oriented Pullback

Given two epimorphisms of algebras A ? B and C ? B, we consider the pullback R. We introduce a particular class of algebras, the tree oriented pullback, where there is a close relationship between the category of indecomposable modules of these algebras. This leads us to prove that if A and C are hereditary algebras, then R is a tilted algebra.     

Finite vs affine W-algebras

In Section 1 we review various equivalent definitions of a vertex algebra V. The main novelty here is the definition in terms of an indefinite integral of the λ-bracket. In Section 2 we construct, in the most general framework, the Zhu algebra Zhu_ΓV, an associative algebra which “controls” Γ-twisted representations of the vertex algebra V with a given Hamiltonian operator H. An important special case of this construction is the H-twisted Zhu algebra Zhu_H V. In Section 3 we review the theory of non-linear Lie conformal algebras (respectively non-linear Lie algebras). Their universal enveloping vertex algebras (resp. universal enveloping algebras) form an important class of freely generated vertex algebras (resp. PBW generated associative algebras). We also introduce the H-twisted Zhu non-linear Lie algebra Zhu_H R of a non-linear Lie conformal algebra R and we show that its universal enveloping algebra is isomorphic to the H-twisted Zhu algebra of the universal enveloping vertex algebra of R. After a discussion of the necessary cohomological material in Section 4, we review in Section 5 the construction and basic properties of affine and finite W-algebras, obtained by the method of quantum Hamiltonian reduction. Those are some of the most intensively studied examples of freely generated vertex algebras and PBW generated associative algebras. Applying the machinery developed in Sections 3 and 4, we then show that the H-twisted Zhu algebra of an affine W-algebra is isomorphic to the finite W-algebra, attached to the same data. In Section 6 we define the Zhu algebra of a Poisson vertex algebra, and we discuss quasiclassical limits. In the Appendix, the equivalence of three definitions of a finite W-algebra is established. “I am an old man, and I know that a definition cannot be so complicated.” I.M.

Compact DG modules and Gorenstein DG algebras

When the base connected cochain DG algebra is cohomologically bounded, it is proved that the difference between the amplitude of a compact DG module and that of the DG algebra is just the projective dimension of that module. This yields the unboundedness of the cohomology of non-trivial regular DG algebras. When A is a regular DG algebra such that H(A) is a Koszul graded algebra, H(A) is proved to have the finite global dimension. And we give an example to illustrate that the global dimension of H(A) may be infinite, if the condition that H(A) is Koszul is weakened to the condition that A is a Koszul DG algebra. For a general regular DG algebra A, we give some equivalent conditions for the Gorensteiness. For a finite connected DG algebra A, we prove that D^c(A) and D^c(A ^op) admit Auslander-Reiten triangles if and only if A and A ^op are Gorenstein DG algebras. When A is a non-trivial regular DG algebra such that H(A) is locally finite, D^c(A) does not admit Auslander-Reiten triangles. We turn to study the existence of Auslander-Reiten triangles in D_lf^b(A) and D_lf^b (A ^op) instead, when A is a regular DG algebra.

Boolean products of R0‐algebras

In this paper, the (weak) Boolean representation of R₀‐algebras are investigated. In particular, we show that directly indecomposable R₀‐algebras are equivalent to local R₀‐algebras and any nontrivial R₀‐algebra is representable as a weak Boolean product of local R₀‐algebras (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Polynomial Identities of Finite Dimensional Simple Algebras

Let F be an algebraically closed field and let A and B be arbitrary finite dimensional simple algebras over F. We prove that A and B are isomorphic if and only if they satisfy the same identities.     

Power-Central Elements in Tensor Products of Symbol Algebras

Let A be a central simple algebra over a field F. Let k₁,…, k_r be cyclic extensions of F such that k₁ ?_F… ?_Fk_r is a field. We investigate conditions under which A is a tensor product of symbol algebras where each field k_i lies in a symbol F-algebra factor of the same degree as k_i over F. As an application, we give an example of an indecomposable algebra of degree 8 and exponent 2 over a field of 2-cohomological dimension 4.     

Rank one quotients of vector groups

ABSTRACT

In this paper we study the possible torsion in even-dimensional higher class groups Cl _2n (Λ)(n ≥ 1) of an order Λ in a semisimple algebra A over a number field F with a ring of integers 𝒪 _F . We show that for certain orders, called generalized Eichler orders, bip-torsion in Cl _2n (Λ) can only occur for primes p dividing prime ideals ? of 𝒪 _F , at which Λ is not maximal. In particular, the results apply to Eichler orders in quaternion algebras and to hereditary orders.     

Gelfand–Kirillov dimension of generalized Weyl algebras (In memory of Guenter Rudolf Krause (1941–2015))

Given a generalized Weyl algebra A of degree 1 with the base algebra D, we prove that the difference of the Gelfand–Kirillov dimension of A and that of D could be any positive integer or infinity. Under mild conditions, this difference is exactly 1. As applications, we calculate the Gelfand–Kirillov dimensions of various algebras of interest, including the (quantized) Weyl algebras, ambiskew polynomial rings, noetherian (generalized) down-up algebras, iterated Ore extensions, quantum Heisenberg algebras, universal enveloping algebras of Lie algebras, quantum GWAs, etc.
