Relative local control and the block source algebras

The local control of pointed groups is generalized to the concept of relative local control, and it is proved that there exists a lifting for a covering of a block source algebra if the relative local control holds. As an application, a result is proved on the source algebras of blocks, whose defect groups are direct products of a normal subgroup and a subgroup that gives a relative local control.

Groups of Exponential Algebras

In this paper we study groups corresponding a free exponential algebra, a free product of exponential algebras and a HNN-extension of exponential algebras over a field F of characteristic 0.     

Stably Calabi-Yau algebras and skew group algebras

Let G be a finite group and A be a finite-dimensional selfinjective algebra over an algebraically closed field. Suppose A is a left G-module algebra. Some suficient conditions for the skew group algebra AG to be stably Calabi-Yau are provided, and some new examples of stably Calabi-Yau algebras are given as well.     

A-扩张Lie Rinehart代数

The purpose of this paper is to give a brief introduction to the category of Lie Rinehart algebras and introduces the concept of smooth manifolds associated with a unitary, commutative,associative algebra A.It especially shows that the A-extended algebra as well as the action algebra can be realized as the space of A-left invariant vector fields on a Lie group,analogous to the well known relationship of Lie algebras and Lie groups.     

Cohen–Macaulay Auslander algebras of skewed-gentle algebras

For any skewed-gentle algebra, we characterize its indecomposable Gorenstein projective modules explicitly and describe its Cohen–Macaulay Auslander algebra. We prove that skewed-gentle algebras are always Gorenstein, which is independent of the characteristic of the ground field, and the Cohen–Macaulay Auslander algebras of skewed-gentle algebras are also skewed-gentle algebras.     

Quasi-Hereditary Extension Algebras

The paper is a continuation of the authors' study of quasi-hereditary algebras whose Yoneda extension algebras (homological duals) are quasi-hereditary. The so-called standard Koszul quasi-hereditary algebras, presented in this paper, have the property that their extension algebras are always quasi-hereditary. In the natural setting of graded Koszul algebras, the converse also holds: if the extension algebra of a graded Koszul quasi-hereditary algebra is quasi-hereditary, then the algebra must be standard Koszul. This implies that the class of graded standard Koszul quasi-hereditary algebras is closed with respect to homological duality. Another immediate consequence is the fact that all algebras corresponding to the blocks of the category O are standard Koszul.     

Classification of graded Hecke algebras for complex reflection groups

The graded Hecke algebra for a finite Weyl group is intimately related to the geometry of the Springer correspondence. A construction of Drinfeld produces an analogue of a graded Hecke algebra for any finite subgroup of GL(V). This paper classifies all the algebras obtained by applying Drinfeld's construction to complex reflection groups. By giving explicit (though nontrivial) isomorphisms, we show that the graded Hecke algebras for finite real reflection groups constructed by Lusztig are all isomorphic to algebras obtained by Drinfeld's construction. The classification shows that there exist algebras obtained from Drinfeld's construction which are not graded Hecke algebras as defined by Lusztig for real as well as complex reflection groups.

Classification of Lie algebras of specific type in complexified Clifford algebras

We give a full classification of Lie algebras of specific type in complexified Clifford algebras. These 16 Lie algebras are direct sums of subspaces of quaternion types. We obtain isomorphisms between these Lie algebras and classical matrix Lie algebras in the cases of arbitrary dimension and signature. We present 16 Lie groups: one Lie group for each Lie algebra associated with this Lie group. We study connection between these groups and spin groups.     

Quiver approach to some ordered semigroup algebras

The aim of this paper is to research the relation among generalized path algebras, pseudo-admissible ordered semigroup algebras and path algebras over algebras. First, the Gabriel theorem for contract pseudo-admissible ordered semigroup algebras is given. Second, a family of pseudo-admissible ordered semigroups is mixed together via the method of generalized path algebras to construct a new pseudo-admissible ordered semigroup as the extended version. Finally, we characterize the path algebra over an algebra in two ways through normal and non-normal generalized path algebras, respectively, over a field.     

Wakimoto modules, opers and the center at the critical level

Wakimoto modules are representations of affine Kac-Moody algebras in Fock modules over infinite-dimensional Heisenberg algebras. In this paper, we present the construction of the Wakimoto modules from the point of view of the vertex algebra theory. We then use Wakimoto modules to identify the center of the completed universal enveloping algebra of an affine Kac-Moody algebra at the critical level with the algebra of functions on the space of opers for the Langlands dual group on the punctured disc, giving another proof of the theorem of B. Feigin and the author.     

Poisson color algebras of arbitrary degree

A Poisson algebra is a Lie algebra endowed with a commutative associative product in such a way that the Lie and associative products are compatible via a Leibniz rule. If we part from a Lie color algebra, instead of a Lie algebra, a graded-commutative associative product and a graded-version Leibniz rule we get a so-called Poisson color algebra (of degree zero). This concept can be extended to any degree, so as to obtain the class of Poisson color algebras of arbitrary degree. This class turns out to be a wide class of algebras containing the ones of Lie color algebras (and so Lie superalgebras and Lie algebras), Poisson algebras, graded Poisson algebras, z-Poisson algebras, Gerstenhaber algebras, and Schouten algebras among other classes of algebras. The present paper is devoted to the study of structure of Poisson color algebras of degree g₀, where g₀ is some element of the grading group G such that g₀ = 0 or 4g₀≠0, and with restrictions neither on the dimension nor the base field, by stating a second Wedderburn-type theorem for this class of algebras.     

Lie Representations and an Algebra Containing Solomon's

We introduce and study a Hopf algebra containing the descent algebra as a sub-Hopf-algebra. It has the main algebraic properties of the descent algebra, and more: it is a sub-Hopf-algebra of the direct sum of the symmetric group algebras; it is closed under the corresponding inner product; it is cocommutative, so it is an enveloping algebra; it contains all Lie idempotents of the symmetric group algebras. Moreover, its primitive elements are exactly the Lie elements which lie in the symmetric group algebras.     

Good Gradings on Upper Block Triangular Matrix Algebras

We investigate group gradings of upper block triangular matrix algebras over a field such that all the matrix units lying there are homogeneous elements. We describe these gradings as endomorphism algebras of graded flags and classify them as orbits of a certain biaction of a Young subgroup and the group G on the set G ⁿ , where G is the grading group and n is the size of the matrix algebra. In particular, the results apply to algebras of upper triangular matrices.     

Composition algebras of the second kind

The concept of a composition algebra of the second kind is introduced. We prove that such algebras are non-degenerate monocomposition algebras without unity. A big number of these algebras in any finite dimension are constructed, as well as two algebras in a countable dimension. The constructed algebras each contains a non-isotropic idempotent e² = e. We describe all orthogonally non-isomorphic composition algebras of the second kind in the following forms: (1) a two-dimensional algebra (which has turned out to be unique); (2) three-dimensional algebras in the constructed series. For every algebra A, the group Ortaut A of orthogonal automorphisms is specified. __________ Translated from Algebra i Logika, Vol. 46, No. 4, pp. 428–447, July–August, 2007.     

Representation theory of q-rook monoid algebras

We show that, over an arbitrary field, q-rook monoid algebras are iterated inflations of Iwahori-Hecke algebras, and, in particular, are cellular. Furthermore we give an algebra decomposition which shows a q-rook monoid algebra is Morita equivalent to a direct sum of Iwahori-Hecke algebras. We state some of the consequences for the representation theory of q-rook monoid algebras.Supported by EPSRC grant GR/S18151/01

Isomorphism classes and automorphism groups of algebras of Weyl type

In one of our recent papers, the associative and the Lie algebras of Weyl typeA[D]=A⊗F[D] were defined and studied, whereA is a commutative associative algebra with an identity element over a field F of any characteristic, and F[D] is the polynomial algebra of a commutative derivation subalgebraD ofA. In the present paper, a class of the above associative and Lie algebrasA[D] with F being a field of characteristic 0,D consisting of locally finite but not locally nilpotent derivations ofA, are studied. The isomorphism classes and automorphism groups of these associative and Lie algebras are determined     

Cocommutative Hopf Algebras of Permutations and Trees

Consider the coradical filtrations of the Hopf algebras of planar binary trees of Loday and Ronco and of permutations of Malvenuto and Reutenauer. We give explicit isomorphisms showing that the associated graded Hopf algebras are dual to the cocommutative Hopf algebras introduced in the late 1980's by Grossman and Larson. These Hopf algebras are constructed from ordered trees and heap-ordered trees, respectively. These results follow from the fact that whenever one starts from a Hopf algebra that is a cofree graded coalgebra, the associated graded Hopf algebra is a shuffle Hopf algebra.
