Homotopy algebras and the inverse of the normalization functor

In this paper, we investigate multiplicative properties of the classical Dold-Kan correspondence. The inverse of the normalization functor maps commutative differential graded algebras to E_∞-algebras. We prove that it in fact sends algebras over arbitrary differential graded E_∞-operads to E_∞-algebras in simplicial modules and is part of a Quillen adjunction. More generally, this inverse maps homotopy algebras to weak homotopy algebras. We prove the corresponding dual results for algebras under the conormalization, and for coalgebra structures under the normalization resp. the inverse of the conormalization.     

Lusztig isomorphisms for Drinfel'd doubles of bosonizations of Nichols algebras of diagonal type

In the structure theory of quantized enveloping algebras, the algebra isomorphisms determined by Lusztig led to the first general construction of PBW bases of these algebras. Also, they have important applications to the representation theory of these and related algebras. In the present paper the Drinfel'd double for a class of graded Hopf algebras is investigated. Various quantum algebras, including small quantum groups and multiparameter quantizations of semisimple Lie algebras and of Lie superalgebras, are covered by the given definition. For these Drinfel'd doubles Lusztig maps are defined. It is shown that these maps induce isomorphisms between doubles of bosonizations of Nichols algebras of diagonal type. Further, the obtained isomorphisms satisfy Coxeter type relations in a generalized sense. As an application, the Lusztig isomorphisms are used to give a characterization of Nichols algebras of diagonal type with finite root system.     

Geometric combinatorial algebras: cyclohedron and simplex

In this paper we report on results of our investigation into the algebraic structure supported by the combinatorial geometry of the cyclohedron. Our new graded algebra structures lie between two well known Hopf algebras: the Malvenuto–Reutenauer algebra of permutations and the Loday–Ronco algebra of binary trees. Connecting algebra maps arise from a new generalization of the Tonks projection from the permutohedron to the associahedron, which we discover via the viewpoint of the graph associahedra of Carr and Devadoss. At the same time, that viewpoint allows exciting geometrical insights into the multiplicative structure of the algebras involved. Extending the Tonks projection also reveals a new graded algebra structure on the simplices. Finally this latter is extended to a new graded Hopf algebra with basis all the faces of the simplices.     

Bialgebra cohomology, pointed Hopf algebras, and deformations

We give explicit formulas for maps in a long exact sequence connecting bialgebra cohomology to Hochschild cohomology. We give a sufficient condition for the connecting homomorphism to be surjective. We apply these results to compute all bialgebra two-cocycles of certain Radford biproducts (bosonizations). These two-cocycles are precisely those associated to the finite dimensional pointed Hopf algebras in the recent classification of Andruskiewitsch and Schneider, in an interpretation of these Hopf algebras as graded bialgebra deformations of Radford biproducts.     

The structures on the universal enveloping algebras of differential graded Poisson Hopf algebras

In this paper, the so-called differential graded (DG for short) Poisson Hopf algebra is introduced, which can be considered as a natural extension of Poisson Hopf algebras in the differential graded setting. The structures on the universal enveloping algebras of differential graded Poisson Hopf algebras are discussed.     

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)).     

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.     

c-Graded filiform Lie algebras

In this paper we generalize naturally graded filiform Lie algebras as well as filiform Lie algebras admitting a connected gradation of maximal length, by introducing the concept of c-graded complex filiform Lie algebras. We deal with the particular case of 3-graded filiform Lie algebras and we obtain their classification in arbitrary dimension. We finally show a link among derived algebras, graded filiform and rigid solvable Lie algebras.     

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.

Prime radicals of graded Ω-groups

In this paper, we introduce the class of graded Ω-groups, which includes: groups; associative, conformal and vertex algebras; Lie algebras and graded algebras. The graded prime radical of a graded Ω-group is defined, and its elementwise characterization is given. It is shown that the graded prime radical of a graded Ω-groups with a finiteness condition coincides with the lower weakly solvable (in the Parfyonov sense) radical. __________ Translated from Fundamentalnaya i Prikladnaya Matematika, Vol. 12, No. 2, pp. 159–174, 2006.     

Realizing ultragraph Leavitt path algebras as Steinberg algebras

In this article, we realize the finite range ultragraph Leavitt path algebras as Steinberg algebras. This realization allows us to use the groupoid approach to obtain structural results about these algebras. Using the skew product of groupoids, we show that ultragraph Leavitt path algebras are graded von Neumann regular rings. We characterize strongly graded ultragraph Leavitt path algebras and show that every ultragraph Leavitt path algebra is semiprimitive. Moreover, we characterize irreducible representations of ultragraph Leavitt path algebras. We also show that ultragraph Leavitt path algebras can be realized as Cuntz-Pimsner rings.

Exact and Semisimple Differential Graded Algebras

In this paper we provide a classification theorem and a structure theorem for exact differential graded algebras, and we use the classification theorem to show that a differential graded algebra A is semisimple (as a differential graded algebra) precisely when the graded algebra Z(A) is semisimple (as a graded algebra) and A is an exact complex. We also relate exact differential graded algebras with a graded version of Hochschild cohomology.     

A Model for the Orbifold Chow Ring of Weighted Projective Spaces

We construct an isomorphism of graded Frobenius algebras between the orbifold Chow ring of weighted projective spaces and graded algebras of groups of roots of the unity.     

Group actions on algebras and the graded Lie structure of Hochschild cohomology

Hochschild cohomology governs deformations of algebras, and its graded Lie structure plays a vital role. We study this structure for the Hochschild cohomology of the skew group algebra formed by a finite group acting on an algebra by automorphisms. We examine the Gerstenhaber bracket with a view toward deformations and developing bracket formulas. We then focus on the linear group actions and polynomial algebras that arise in orbifold theory and representation theory; deformations in this context include graded Hecke algebras and symplectic reflection algebras. We give some general results describing when brackets are zero for polynomial skew group algebras, which allow us in particular to find noncommutative Poisson structures. For abelian groups, we express the bracket using inner products of group characters. Lastly, we interpret results for graded Hecke algebras.

Graded group schemes and graded group varieties

We define graded group schemes and graded group varieties and develop their theory. Graded group schemes are the graded analogue of a?ne group schemes and are in correspondence with graded Hopf algebras. Graded group varieties take the place of infinitesimal group schemes. We generalize the result that connected graded bialgebras are graded Hopf algebra to our setting and we describe the algebra structure of graded group varieties. We relate these new objects to the classical ones providing a new and broader framework for the study of graded Hopf algebras and a?ne group schemes.     

Linear maps on operator algebras that preserve elements annihilated by a polynomial

In this paper some purely algebraic results are given concerning linear maps on algebras which preserve elements annihilated by a polynomial of degree greater than 1 and with no repeated roots and applied to linear maps on operator algebras such as standard operator algebras, von Neumann algebras and Banach algebras. Several results are obtained that characterize such linear maps in terms of homomorphisms, anti-homomorphisms, or, at least, Jordan homomorphisms.

     

Self-dual hopf algebras

We introduce the notions of self-dual (graded) Hopf algebras and of structurally simple (graded) Hopf algebras. We prove that the self-dual Hopf algebras are structurally simple and provide a construction of self-dual Hopf algebras. Finally, we classify the self-dual quotients of the form T_B (M)/I, where T_B (M) is a path algebra with a graded Hopf algebra structure, and I is a graded admissible Hopf ideal.     

Rapidly converging approximations and regularity theory

We consider distributions on a closed compact manifold $M$ as maps on smoothing operators. Thus spaces of maps between ${{\Psi }^{\!-\!\infty }}(M)$ and $\mathcal{C ^{\infty }}(M)$ are considered as generalized functions. For any collection of regularizing processes we produce various algebras of generalized functions and equivariant embeddings of distributions into such algebras. The regularity for such generalized functions is provided in terms of a certain tameness of maps between graded Frechét spaces. This also recovers the singularity behaviour of distributions (singular support/wavefront sets) in terms of certain subalgebras of the algebra of generalized functions. This notion of regularity is compared with the regularity in Colombeau algebras in the $\mathcal{G }^{\infty }$ sense.
