Commuting traces of multilinear maps on invertible elements

Let R be a unital simple ring. Under some technical restrictions, we characterize m-linear mappings G:R^m→R satisfying [G(u,…,u),u]?=?0 for all unit u∈R.     

A Note on Range-Inclusive Maps in Rings with Idempotents

Let A be a ring, let M be an A-bimodule, and let C be the center of M. A map F: A → M is said to be range-inclusive if [F(x), A] ? [x, M] for every x ? A. Recently, Bre?ar proved that if A is a unital ring and M a unital A-bimodule such that A contains wide idempotents, then every range-inclusive additive map F: A → M is of the form F(x) = λx + μ(x) for some λ ?C and μ: A → C. Our main purpose is to remove the assumption of unitality in the above result.     

Range-Inclusive Maps in Rings with Idempotents

Let 𝒜 be a ring, let ? be an 𝒜-bimodule, and let 𝒞 be the center of ?. A map F:𝒜 → ? is said to be range-inclusive if [F(x), 𝒜] ? [x, ?] for every x ∈ 𝒜. We show that if 𝒜 contains idempotents satisfying certain technical conditions (which we call wide idempotents), then every range-inclusive additive map F:𝒜 → ? is of the form F(x) = λx + μ(x) for some λ ∈ 𝒞 and μ:𝒜 → 𝒞. As a corollary we show that if 𝒜 is a prime ring containing an idempotent different from 0 and 1, then every range-inclusive additive map from 𝒜 into itself is commuting (i.e., [F(x), x] = 0 for every x ∈ 𝒜).     

Invertible Linear Maps on Simple Lie Algebras Preserving Solvability

Let 𝔤 be a (finite-dimensional) complex simple Lie algebra of rank l. An invertible linear map ? on 𝔤 is said to preserve solvability in both directions if ?, as well as ?^?1, sends every solvable subalgebra to some solvable one. In this article, it is shown that an invertible linear map ? on 𝔤 preserves solvability in both directions if and only if it can be decomposed into the product of an inner automorphism, a graph automorphism, a scalar multiplication map and a diagonal automorphism.     

Nonlinear Maps on Simple Lie Algebras Preserving Lie Products

Let 𝔤 be a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. It is proved in this article that a bijective map ? on 𝔤 preserves Lie products if and only if it is a composition of a Lie algebra automorphism and a bijective map extended by an automorphism of the base field.     

Nonlinear Strong Commutativity Preserving Maps on Prime Rings

Let 𝒜 be a unital prime ring containing a nontrivial idempotent P. Assume that Φ: 𝒜 → 𝒜 is a nonlinear surjective map. It is shown that Φ preserves strong commutativity if and only if Φ has the form Φ(A) = αA + f(A) for all A ∈ 𝒜, where α ∈ {1, ?1} and f is a map from 𝒜 into 𝒵(𝒜). As an application, a characterization of nonlinear surjective strong commutativity preserving maps on factor von Neumann algebras is obtained.

Commuting traces and commutativity preserving maps on triangular algebras

Let A be a triangular algebra. The problem of describing the form of a bilinear map satisfying B(x,x)x=xB(x,x) for all xA is considered. As an application, commutativity preserving maps and Lie isomorphisms of certain triangular algebras (e.g., upper triangular matrix algebras and nest algebras) are determined.     

Additive Maps Preserving Similarity of Operators on Banach Spaces

Let X be an infinite-dimensional complex Banach space and denote by B（X） the algebra of all bounded linear operators acting on X. It is shown that a surjective additive map Φ from B（X） onto itself preserves similarity in both directions if and only if there exist a scalar c, a bounded invertible linear or conjugate linear operator A and a similarity invariant additive functional ψ on B（X） such that either Φ（T） = cATA^-1 ＋ ψ（T）I for all T, or Φ（T） = cAT＊A^-1 ＋ ψ（T）I for all T. In the case where X has infinite multiplicity, in particular, when X is an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, the above similarity invariant additive functional ψ is always zero.     

Uniformly Distributed Systems of Elements on Metabelian Lie Rings

In this article, the notion of a uniformly distributed systems of elements on the variety of metabelian Lie algebras is introduced. This notion is analogous to one of a measure preserving systems of elements on group varieties. As the main result of the article, it was shown that on the variety of metabelian Lie algebras a system of elements is primitive iff it is uniformly distributed.     

Chern Forms on Mapping Spaces

We state a Chern–Weil type theorem which is a generalization of a Chern–Weil type theorem for Fredholm structures stated by Freed in [4]. Using this result, we investigate Chern forms on based manifold of maps following two approaches, the first one using the Wodzicki residue, and the second one using renormalized traces of pseudo-differential operators along the lines of [1, 19, 20]. We specialize to the case to study current groups. Finally, we apply these results to a class of holomorphic connections on the loop group . In this last example, we precise Freed's construction [5] on the loop group: The cohomology of the first Chern form of any holomorphic connection in the class considered is given by the Kähler form.

Exceptional Families of Elements for Variational Inequalities in Banach Spaces

In keeping with very recent efforts to establish a useful concept of an exceptional family of elements for variational inequality problems rather than complementarity problems as in the past, we propose such a concept. It generalizes previous ones to multivalued variational inequalities in general normed spaces and allows us to obtain several existence results for variational inequalities corresponding to earlier ones for complementarity problems. Compared with the existing literature, we consider problems in more general spaces and under considerably weaker assumptions on the defining map.
