Asymptotics of the Codimensions <Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Subscript> in the Algebra <Emphasis Type="Italic">F</Emphasis><Superscript>(7)</Superscript>

The paper studies the additive structure of the algebra F⁽⁷⁾, i.e., a relatively free associative countably generated algebra with the identity [x₁,..., x₇] = 0 over an infinite field of characteristic ≠ 2, 3. First, the space of proper multilinear polynomials in this algebra is investigated. As an application, estimates for the codimensions c_n = dimF_n⁽⁷⁾ are obtained, where F_n⁽⁷⁾ stands for the subspace of multilinear polynomials of degree n in the algebra F⁽⁷⁾.     

Quasi-state rigidity for finite-dimensional Lie algebras

We say that a Lie algebra g is quasi-state rigid if every Ad-invariant continuous Lie quasi-state on it is the directional derivative of a homogeneous quasimorphism. Extending work of Entov and Polterovich, we show that every reductive Lie algebra, as well as the algebras C ⁿ ? u(n), n ≥ 1, are rigid. On the other hand, a Lie algebra which surjects onto the three-dimensional Heisenberg algebra is not rigid. For Lie algebras of dimension ≤ 3 and for solvable Lie algebras which split over a codimension one abelian ideal, we show that this is the only obstruction to rigidity.     

Gradings on Modules Over Lie Algebras of E Types

For any grading by an abelian group G on the exceptional simple Lie algebra \(\mathcal {L}\) of type E ₆ or E ₇ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, we compute the graded Brauer invariants of simple finite-dimensional modules, thus completing the computation of these invariants for simple finite-dimensional Lie algebras. This yields the classification of finite-dimensional G-graded simple \(\mathcal {L}\)-modules, as well as necessary and sufficient conditions for a finite-dimensional \(\mathcal {L}\)-module to admit a G-grading compatible with the given G-grading on \(\mathcal {L}\).     

A class of simple Lie algebras attached to unit forms

Let n ≥ 3. The complex Lie algebra, which is attached to a unit form q(x ₁, x ₂,..., x _n) = \({\sum\nolimits_{i = 1}^n {x_i^2 + \sum\nolimits_{1 \leqslant i \leqslant j \leqslant n} {\left( { - 1} \right)} } ^{j - i}}{x_i}{x_j}\) and defined by generators and generalized Serre relations, is proved to be a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra of type A _n , and realized by the Ringel-Hall Lie algebra of a Nakayama algebra of radical square zero. As its application of the realization, we give the roots and a Chevalley basis of the simple Lie algebra.     

Diagonal reduction algebra and the reflection equation

We describe the diagonal reduction algebra D(gl _n ) of the Lie algebra gl _n in the R-matrix formalism. As a byproduct we present two families of central elements and the braided bialgebra structure of D(gl _n ).     

A Characterization of Stem Algebras in Terms of Central Derivations

Let L be a Lie algebra, and Der _z (L) denote the set of all central derivations of L, that is, the set of all derivations of L mapping L into the center. In this paper, by using the notion of isoclinism, we study the center of Der _z (L) for nilpotent Lie algebras with nilindex 2. We also give a characterization of stem Lie algebras by their central derivations. In fact we show that for non-abelian nilpotent Lie algebras of finite dimension and any nilpotent Lie algebra with nilindex 2 (not finite dimensional in general), Der _z (L) is abelian if and only if L is a stem Lie algebra.     

Irreducible <Emphasis Type="Italic">A</Emphasis><Stack><Subscript>1</Subscript><Superscript>(1)</Superscript></Stack>-modules from modules over two-dimensional non-abelian Lie algebra

For any module V over the two-dimensional non-abelian Lie algebra b and scalar α ∈ C, we define a class of weight modules F ^α (V) with zero central charge over the affine Lie algebra A ₁ ⁽¹⁾ . These weight modules have infinitedimensional weight spaces if and only if V is infinite dimensional. In this paper, we will determine necessary and sufficient conditions for these modules F ^α(V) to be irreducible. In this way, we obtain a lot of irreducible weight A ₁ ⁽¹⁾ -modules with infinite-dimensional weight spaces.     

Graded Lie algebras with few nontrivial components

We prove that if a (?/n?)-graded Lie algebra L = ? _i=0 ^n?1 L _i has d nontrivial components L _i and the null component L ₀ has finite dimension m, then L has a homogeneous solvable ideal of derived length bounded by a function of d and of codimension bounded by a function of m and d. An analogous result holds also for the (?/n?)-graded Lie rings L = ? _i=0 ^n?1 with few nontrivial components L _i if the null component L ₀ has finite order m. These results generalize Kreknin’s theorem on the solvability of the (?/n?)-graded Lie rings L = ? _i=0 ^n?1 L _i with trivial component L ₀ and Shalev’s theorem on the solvability of such Lie rings with few nontrivial components L _i . The proof is based on the method of generalized centralizers which was created by E. I. Khukhro for Lie rings and nilpotent groups with almost regular automorphisms of prime order [1], as well as on the technique developed in the work of N. Yu. Makarenko and E. I. Khukhro on the almost solvability of Lie algebras with an almost regular automorphism of finite order [2].     

Peckness of Edge Posets

For any graded poset P, we define a new graded poset, ??(P), whose elements are the edges in the Hasse diagram of P. For any group G acting on the boolean algebra B _n in a rank-preserving fashion we conjecture that ??(B _n /G) is Peck. We prove that the conjecture holds for “common cover transitive” actions. We give some infinite families of common cover transitive actions and show that the common cover transitive actions are closed under direct and semidirect products.     

On lie algebras of affine vector fields of ideal realizations of holomorphic linear connections

We study the properties of real realizations of holomorphic linear connections over associative commutative algebras \(\mathbb{A}\) _m with unity. The following statements are proved.If a holomorphic linear connection ? on M _n over \(\mathbb{A}\) _m (m ≥ 2) is torsion-free and R ≠ 0, then the dimension over ? of the Lie algebra of all affine vector fields of the space (M _mn ^? , ?^?) is no greater than (mn)² ? 2mn + 5, where m = dim_? \(\mathbb{A}\), \(n = dim_\mathbb{A} \) M _n , and ?^? is the real realization of the connection ?.Let ?^? =¹ ? ײ ? be the real realization of a holomorphic linear connection ? over the algebra of double numbers. If the Weyl tensor W = 0 and the components of the curvature tensor ¹ R ≠ 0, ² R ≠ 0, then the Lie algebra of infinitesimal affine transformations of the space (M _2n ^? , ?^?) is isomorphic to the direct sum of the Lie algebras of infinitesimal affine transformations of the spaces ( ^a M _n , ^a ?) (a = 1, 2).     

A character relationship on GLn(ℂ)

In this paper we consider the character of an irreducible finite-dimensional algebraic representation of GL_mn(?) restricted to a particular disconnected component of the normalizer of the Levi subgroup GL_m(?)ⁿ of GL_mn(?), generalizing a theorem of Kostant on the character values at the Coxeter element.     

Family algebras and generalized exponents for polyvector representations of simple Lie algebras of type <Emphasis Type="Italic">B</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Subscript>

We give an explicit formula for the exterior powers ∧ ^k π ₁ of the defining representation π ₁ of the simple Lie algebra ?ο(2n + 1, ?). We use the technique of family algebras. All representations in question are children of the spinor representation σ of g2ο(2n + 1, ?). We also give a survey of main results on family algebras.     

On the Classification of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Adic UHF Banach Algebras

For any prime number p let Ω_p be the p-adic counterpart of the complex numbers C. In this paper we investigate the class of p-adic UHF Banach algebras. A p-adic UHF Banach algebra is any unital p-adic Banach algebra A of the form \(A = \overline {U{M_n}} \), where (M_n) is an increasing sequence of p-adic Banach subalgebras of M such that each M_n is generated over Ω_p by an algebraic system of matrix units {e _ij ^{( n)} | 1 ≤ i, j ≤ p_n }. The main result is that the supernatural number associated to a p-adic TUHF Banach algebra is an invariant of the algebra.     

Central polynomials and growth functions

The growth of central polynomials for the algebra of n × n matrices in characterstic zero was studied by Regev in [13]. Here we study the growth of central polynomials for any finite-dimensional algebra over a field of characteristic zero. For such an algebra A we prove the existence of two limits called the central exponent and the proper central exponent of A. They give a measure of the exponential growth of the central polynomials and the proper central polynomials of A. We study the range of such limits and we compare them with the PI-exponent of the algebra.     

Characterization of 2-Local Derivations and Local Lie Derivations on Some Algebras

We prove that each 2-local derivation from the algebra M_n(A ) (n > 2) into its bimodule M_n(M) is a derivation, where A is a unital Banach algebra and M is a unital A -bimodule such that each Jordan derivation from A into M is an inner derivation, and that each 2-local derivation on a C*-algebra with a faithful traceable representation is a derivation. We also characterize local and 2-local Lie derivations on some algebras such as von Neumann algebras, nest algebras, the Jiang–Su algebra, and UHF algebras.     

ABELIAN BALANCED HERMITIAN STRUCTURES ON UNIMODULAR LIE ALGEBRAS

Let g be a 2n-dimensional unimodular Lie algebra equipped with a Hermitian structure (J; F) such that the complex structure J is abelian and the fundamental form F is balanced. We prove that the holonomy group of the associated Bismut connection reduces to a subgroup of SU(n – k), being 2k the dimension of the center of g. We determine conditions that allow a unimodular Lie algebra to admit this particular type of structures. Moreover, we give methods to construct them in arbitrary dimensions and classify them if the Lie algebra is 8-dimensional and nilpotent.     

On ℤ<Subscript>2</Subscript>-graded identities of the super tensor product of <Emphasis Type="Italic">UT</Emphasis><Subscript>2</Subscript>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">F</Emphasis>) by the Grassmann algebra

Let F be a field of characteristic zero and E be the unitary Grassmann algebra generated over an infinite-dimensional F-vector space L. Denote by \(\mathcal{E} = \mathcal{E}^{(0)} \oplus \mathcal{E}^{(1)}\) an arbitrary ?₂-grading of E such that the subspace L is homogeneous. Given a superalgebra A = A ⁽⁰⁾ ⊕ A ⁽¹⁾, define the superalgebra \(A\hat \otimes \mathcal{E}\) by \(A\hat \otimes \mathcal{E} = (A^{(0)} \otimes \mathcal{E}^{(0)} ) \oplus (A^{(1)} \otimes \mathcal{E}^{(1)} )\). Note that when E is the canonical grading of E then \(A\hat \otimes \mathcal{E}\) is the Grassmann envelope of A. In this work we find bases of ?₂-graded identities and we describe the ?₂-graded codimension and cocharacter sequences for the superalgebras \(UT_2 (F)\hat \otimes \mathcal{E}\), when the algebra UT ₂(F) of 2 ×2 upper triangular matrices over F is endowed with its canonical grading.     

Cyclic cohomology of certain nuclear Fréchet algebras and DF algebras

We give explicit formulae for the continuous Hochschild and cyclic homology and cohomology of certain \(\hat \otimes\)-algebras. We use well-developed homological techniques together with some niceties of the theory of locally convex spaces to generalize the results known in the case of Banach algebras and their inverse limits to wider classes of topological algebras. To this end we show that, for a continuous morphism ?: x → y of complexes of complete nuclear DF-spaces, the isomorphism of cohomology groups H ⁿ(?): H ⁿ (x) → H ⁿ (y) is automatically topological. The continuous cyclic-type homology and cohomology are described up to topological isomorphism for the following classes of biprojective \(\hat \otimes\)-algebras: the tensor algebra E \(\hat \otimes\) F generated by the duality (E,F,<·,·>) for nuclear Fréchet spaces E and F or for nuclear DF-spaces E and F; nuclear biprojective Köthe algebras λ(P) which are Fréchet spaces or DF-spaces; the algebra of distributions ε^*(G) on a compact Lie group G.     

On canonical embeddings of complex projective spaces in real projective spaces

In this paper, we construct a natural embedding \(\sigma :\mathbb{C}P_\mathbb{R}^{n} \to \mathbb{R}P^{n^2 + 2n} \) of the complex projective space ?P ⁿ considered as a 2n-dimensional, real-analytic manifold in the real projective space \(\mathbb{R}P^{n^2 + 2n} \). The image of the embedding σ is called the ?P ⁿ-surface. To construct the embedding, we consider two equivalent approaches. The first approach is based on properties of holomorphic bivectors in the realification of a complex vector space. This approach allows one to prove that a ?P-surface is a flat section of a Grassman manifold. In the second approach, we use the adjoint representation of the Lie group U(n + 1) and the canonical decomposition of the Lie algebra u(n). This approach allows one to state a gemetric characterization of the canonical decomposition of the Lie algebra u(n). Moreover, we study properties of the embedding constructed. We prove that this embedding determines the canonical Kähler structure on ?P _? ⁿ . In particular, the Fubini-Study metric is exactly the first fundamental form of the embedding and the complex structure on ?P _? ⁿ is completely defined by its second fundamental form; therefore, this embedding is said to be canonical. Moreover, we describe invariant and anti-invariant completely geodesic submanifolds of the complex projective space.     

Operator algebras associated with multiplicative convolutions of arithmetic functions

The action of N on l~2(N) is studied in association with the multiplicative structure of N. Then the maximal ideal space of the Banach algebra generated by N is homeomorphic to the product of closed unit disks indexed by primes, which reflects the fundamental theorem of arithmetic. The C*-algebra generated by N does not contain any non-zero projection of finite rank. This assertion is equivalent to the existence of infinitely many primes. The von Neumann algebra generated by N is B(l~2(N)), the set of all bounded operators on l~2(N).Moreover, the differential operator on l~2(N,1/n(n+1)) defined by ▽f = μ * f is considered, where μ is the Mbius function. It is shown that the spectrum σ(▽) contains the closure of {ζ(s)-1: Re(s) 1}. Interesting problems concerning are discussed.
