Isomorphism Classes of Algebras with Radical Cube Zero II

We study to classify, up to isomorphism, algebras Λ over a field k such that the radical cubed is zero and Λ modulo the radical is a product of copies of k. The number of local quasi-Frobenius k-algebras with the condition is shown to be not less than the cardinality of k. In particular, the canonical forms of those algebras of dimension 5 are presented and their isomorphism classes are completely determined under some conditions on k.      

Symmetric Elements,Hermitian Forms,and Cyclic Involutions

Let k be a field, K/k be a quadratic separable field extension, and 𝒜 a finite dimensional central simple algebra over K. If k is global or the field of fractions of a two-dimensional excellent henselian local domain with an algebraically closed residue field of characteristic zero and the degree of 𝒜 is odd, we prove that all K/k-involutions on 𝒜 are cyclic.     

Algebras Versus Coalgebras

Algebras and coalgebras are fundamental notions for large parts of mathematics. The basic constructions from universal algebra are now expressed in the language of categories and thus are accessible to classical algebraists and topologists as well as to logicians and computer scientists. Some of them have developed specialised parts of the theory and often reinvented constructions already known in a neighbouring area. One purpose of this survey is to show the connection between results from different fields and to trace a number of them back to some fundamental papers in category theory from the early 1970s. Another intention is to look at the interplay between algebraic and coalgebraic notions. Hopf algebras are one of the most interesting objects in this setting. While knowledge of algebras and coalgebras are folklore in general category theory, the notion of Hopf algebras is usually only considered for monoidal categories. In the course of the text we do suggest how to overcome this defect by defining a Hopf monad on an arbitrary category as a monad and comonad satisfying some compatibility conditions and inducing an equivalence between the base category and the category of the associated bimodules. For a set G, the endofunctor G× – on the category of sets shares these properties if and only if G admits a group structure. Finally, we report about the possibility of subsuming algebras and coalgebras in the notion of ( F , G )-dimodules associated to two functors between different categories. This observation, due to Tatsuya Hagino, was an outcome from the theory of categorical data types and may also be of use in classical algebra.      

Complexity of admissible rules

We investigate the computational complexity of deciding whether a given inference rule is admissible for some modal and superintuitionistic logics. We state a broad condition under which the admissibility problem is coNEXP-hard. We also show that admissibility in several well-known systems (including GL, S4, and IPC) is in coNE, thus obtaining a sharp complexity estimate for admissibility in these systems.

A new approach for admissibility analysis of the direct discontinuous Galerkin method through Hilbert matrices

This article continues the study of the so‐called direct discontinuous Galerkin (DDG) method for diffusion problems as developed in [Liu and Yan, SIAM J Numer Anal 47 (2009), 475–698;, Liu and Yan, Commun Comput Phys 8 (2010), 541–564; C. Vidden and J. Yan, J Comput Math 31 (2013), 638–662; H. Liu, Math Comp (in press)]. A key feature of the DDG method lies with the numerical flux design which includes two (or more) free parameters. This article identifies the class of all admissible numerical flux choices (Theorem 2.2) for degree n polynomial approximations for the symmetric DDG method [C. Vidden and J. Yan, J Comput Math 31 (2013), 638–662], guaranteeing stability of the resulting method. Our main contribution is the new technique of analysis for the DDG admissibility condition. The strategy is to directly evaluate the admissibility condition (Lemma 2.4) by choosing a simple polynomial basis. The admissibility condition is then transformed into an eigenvalue problem resulting in showing needed properties of inverse Hilbert matrices (Lemma 2.3, Appendix). Numerical tests are provided to confirm theoretical results. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq 32: 350–367, 2016     

Classification of Some Graded not Necessarily Associative Division Algebras I

We study not necessarily associative (NNA) division algebras over the reals. We classify in this paper series those that admit a grading over a finite group G, and have a basis {v _g |g ∈ G} as a real vector space, and the product of these basis elements respects the grading and includes a scalar structure constant with values only in {1, ? 1}. We classify here those graded by an abelian group G of order |G| ≤8 with G non–isomorphic to ?/8?. We will find the complex, quaternion, and octonion algebras, but also a remarkable set of novel non–associative division algebras.     

Graded polynomial identities for matrices with the transpose involution over an infinite field

Let F be an infinite field and let M_n(F) be the algebra of n×n matrices over F endowed with an elementary grading whose neutral component coincides with the main diagonal. In this paper, we find a basis for the graded polynomial identities of M_n(F) with the transpose involution. Our results generalize for infinite fields of arbitrary characteristic previous results in the literature, which were obtained for the field of complex numbers and for a particular class of elementary G-gradings.     

Stochastic differential equations for multi-dimensional domain with reflecting boundary

Summary In this paper we prove that there exists a unique solution of the Skorohod equation for a domain inR ^d with a reflecting boundary condition. We remove the admissibility condition of the domain which is assumed in the work [4] of Lions and Sznitman. We first consider a deterministic case and then discuss a stochastic case.     

On some class of nonseparable continuous wavelet transforms

It is well-known that only a single condition (called the admissibility condition) is sufficient for L ₂-convergence of multiple continuous wavelet transforms (MCWT). However known results suggest that to guarantee the pointwise convergence of MCWT for L _p -functions wavelets should vanish quite rapidly at infinity. In this article, we consider the class of nonseparable multiple wavelets with square-symmetric Fourier transforms. For these wavelets ψ we prove that the admissibility condition and the condition ψ∈L ₁(R ⁿ ) are sufficient for the convergence of corresponding MCWT almost everywhere.     

Homogenized Down-Up Algebras

Abstract

This paper studies two homogenizations of the down-up algebras introduced in Benkart and Roby (Benkart, G., Roby, T. (1998 Benkart, G. and Roby, T. 1998. Down-up algebras. J. Algebra, 209: 305–344. [Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]). Down-up Algebras. J. Algebra 209:305–344). We show that in all cases the homogenizing variable is not a zero-divisor, and that when the parameter β is non-zero, the homogenized down-up algebra is a Noetherian domain and a maximal order, and also Artin-Schelter regular, Auslander regular, and Cohen-Macaulay. We show that all homogenized down-up algebras have global dimension 4 and Gelfand-Kirillov dimension 4, and with one exception all homogenized down-up algebras are prime rings. We also exhibit a basis for homogenized down-up algebras and provide a necessary condition for a Noetherian homogenized down-up algebra to be a Hopf algebra.     

A note on admissibility of closed Galois structures

Abstract

We present a new admissibility theorem for Galois structures in the sense of G. Janelidze. It applies to relative exact categories satisfying a suitable relative modularity condition, and extends the known admissibility theorem in the theory of generalized central extensions. We also show that our relative modularity condition holds in every relative exact Goursat category.     

Heisenberg Lie Color Algebras

In this article, we give a sufficient condition for a Lie color algebra to be complete. The color derivation algebra Der(?) and the holomorph L of finite dimensional Heisenberg Lie color algebra ? graded by a torsion-free abelian group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero are determined. We prove that Der(?) and Der(L) are simple complete Lie color algebras, but L is not a complete Lie color algebra.     

Clifford Algebra-Valued Wavelet Transform on Multivector Fields

This paper presents a construction of the n = 2 (mod 4) Clifford algebra Cl _n,0-valued admissible wavelet transform using the admissible similitude group SIM(n), a subgroup of the affine group of \mathbbRⁿ{\mathbb{R}^{n}} . We express the admissibility condition in terms of the Cl _n,0 Clifford Fourier transform (CFT). We show that its fundamental properties such as inner product, norm relation, and inversion formula can be established whenever the Clifford admissible wavelet satisfies a particular admissibility condition. As an application we derive a Heisenberg type uncertainty principle for the Clifford algebra Cl _n,0-valued admissible wavelet transform. Finally, we provide some basic examples of these extended wavelets such as Clifford Morlet wavelets and Clifford Hermite wavelets.     

On Composition series relative to a module

ABSTRACT

A commutative algebra with the identity (a * b) * (c * d) ? (a * d) * (c * b) = (a, b, c) * d ? (a, d, c) * b is called Novikov–Jordan. Example: K[x] under multiplication a * b = ?(ab) is Novikov–Jordan. A special identity for Novikov–Jordan algebras of degree 5 is constructed. Free Novikov–Jordan algebras with q generators are exceptional for any q ≥ 1.

     

Generalization of the B *‐algebra (C0(X),∥ ∥∞)

We give a generalization of the Stone–Weierstrass property for subalgebras of C (X), with X a completely regular Hausdorff space. In particular, we study in this paper some subalgebras of C₀(X), with X a locally compact Hausdorff space, provided with weighted norm topology. By using the Stone–Weierstrass property, we then describe the ideal structure of these algebras. (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Commutative Algebras with Radical Cube Zero

Abstract

We present “canonical forms” of finite dimensional (quasi-Frobenius) commutative algebras Λ over a field k such that the radical cubed is zero and Λ modulo the radical is a product of copies of k. We also determine the isomorphism classes of the algebras Λ over some typical fields.
