Primitive Limit Algebras and C-Envelopes

In this paper, we study irreducible representations of regular limit subalgebras of AF-algebras. The main result is twofold: every closed prime ideal of a limit of direct sums of nest algebras (NSAF) is primitive, and every prime regular limit algebra is primitive. A key step is that the quotient of an NSAF algebra by any closed ideal has an AF C^*-envelope, and this algebra is exhibited as a quotient of a concretely represented AF-algebra. When the ideal is prime, the C^*-envelope is primitive. The GNS construction is used to produce algebraically irreducible (in fact n-transitive for all n1) representations for quotients of NSAF algebras by closed prime ideals. Thus the closed prime ideals of NSAF algebras coincide with the primitive ideals. Moreover, these representations extend to *-representations of the C^*-envelope of the quotient, so that a fortiori these algebras are also operator primitive. The same holds true for arbitrary limit algebras and the {0} ideal.     

Non-closed sums of closed ideals in Banach algebras

A major difficulty in Banach algebra theory is that sums of closed ideals need not be closed. We survey the known results and present examples showing that they are in most directions the best possible. We also give a new sufficient condition for closure in the uniform algebra setting.

     

Generalised Chain Conditions,Prime Ideals,and Classes of Locally Finite Lie Algebras

A Noetherian (Artinian) Lie algebra satisfies the maximal (minimal) condition for ideals.Generalisations include quasi-Noetherian and quasi-Artinian Lie algebras.We study conditions on prime ideals relating these properties.We prove that the radicalof any ideal of a quasi-Artinian Lie algebra is the intersection of finitely many prime ideals,and an ideally finite Lie algebra is quasi-Noetherian if and only if it is qussi-Artinian.Both properties are equivalent to soluble-by-finite.We also prove a structure theorem for serially finite Artinian Lie algebras.     

Real Closed Valuation Rings

The real closed valuation rings, i.e., convex subrings of real closed fields, form a proper subclass of the class of real closed domains. It is shown how one can recognize whether a real closed domain is a valuation ring. This leads to a characterization of the totally ordered domains whose real closure is a valuation ring. Real closures of totally ordered factor rings of coordinate rings of real algebraic varieties are very frequently valuation rings. In particular, the real closure of the coordinate ring of a curve is an SV-ring (i.e., the factor rings modulo prime ideals are valuation rings). Real closed valuation rings play a role in the definition of real closed rings, as well as in the construction of real closures of rings and porings. They can also be used for the study of univariate differentiable semi-algebraic functions. This leads to the notion of differentiablility of semi-algebraic functions along half branches of curves.     

Ideals of Finite-Dimensional Pointed Hopf Algebras of Rank One

Let H be a finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebra of rank one over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero.In this paper we show that any finite-dimensional indecomposable H-module is generated by one element.In particular,any indecomposable submodule of H under the adjoint action is generated by a special element of H.Using this result,we show that the Hopf algebra H is a principal ideal ring,i.e.,any two-sided ideal of H is generated by one element.As an application,we give explicitly the generators of ideals,primitive ideals,maximal ideals and completely prime ideals of the Taft algebras.     

量子代数模的张量积与不可分解模

令M是Z[v]的由v-1和奇素数p生成的理想,U是A=Z[v]M上相伴于对称Cartan矩阵的量子代数.k是特征为零的代数闭域,A→k(v(?)ξ)是环同态.U_k=U(?)_Ak,u_k是U_k的无穷小量子代数.令ξ是1的p次本原根.本文证明了:若有限维可积U_k模M,V中至少有一个是内射模,或者M,V中有一个模作为u_k模是平凡的,则有U_k模同构M(?)V≌V(?)M.我们还证明了:若有限维可积U_k模V作为u_k模是不可分解的,有限维可积U_k模M是不可分解的,且M|_(uk)是平凡的,则V(?)M是不可分解U_k模.令V和M是有限维可积U_k模,作为u_k模是同构的且具有单基座,本文证明V和M作为U_k模也是同构的.由此得到:不可分解内射u_k模提升为U_k模是唯一的.

Ideal Structure and Stable Rank of $${\mathbb {C} e+ \ell^2(I)}$$ with the Hadamard Product

Let I be any index set. We consider the Banach algebra \mathbb C e+ l²(I){\mathbb {C} e+ \ell^2(I)} with the Hadamard product, and prove that its Bass and topological stable ranks are both equal to 1. We also characterize divisors, maximal ideals, closed ideals and closed principal ideals. For I=\mathbb N{I=\mathbb {N}} we also characterize all prime z-ideals in this Banach algebra.     

Galois theory for sets of operations closed under permutation,cylindrification, and composition

A set of operations on A is shown to be the set of linear term operations of some algebra on A if and only if it is closed under permutation of variables, addition of inessential variables, and composition, and if it contains all projections. A Galois framework is introduced to describe the sets of operations that are closed under the operations mentioned above, not necessarily containing all projections. The dual objects of this Galois connection are systems of pointed multisets, and the Galois closed sets of dual objects are described accordingly. Moreover, the closure systems associated with this Galois connection are shown to be uncountable (even if the closed sets of operations are assumed to contain all projections).     

Ideals of factors

Every primitive C*-algebra is prime. An old theorem of Dixmier shows that the converse is true if the algebra is separable. Recently Weaver has shown that without separability this is false. AW* -factors are easily seen to be prime. Are all their ideals primitive? A number of partial results have appeared recently. It turns out that the answer is always positive and that this follows immediately from a theorem of FB Wright proved nearly 50 years ago. His proof was hard and complicated. He works in a more general setting but when his result is specialised to the class of operator algebras investigated here, we are able to give a new, easy proof that the ideals of an AW* -factor form a well-ordered set; from this, it follows swiftly that every proper ideal of an AW*-factor is primitive.     

Reductions and special parts of closures

We provide an axiomatic framework for working with a wide variety of closure operations on ideals and submodules in commutative algebra, including notions of reduction, independence, spread, and special parts of closures. This framework is applied to tight, Frobenius, and integral closures. Applications are given to evolutions and special Briançon–Skoda theorems.

Winding-invariant prime ideals in quantum 3×3 matrices

A complete determination of the prime ideals invariant under winding automorphisms in the generic 3×3 quantum matrix algebra is obtained. Explicit generating sets consisting of quantum minors are given for all of these primes, thus verifying a general conjecture in the 3×3 case. The result relies heavily on certain tensor product decompositions for winding-invariant prime ideals, developed in an accompanying paper. In addition, new methods are developed here, which show that certain sets of quantum minors, not previously manageable, generate prime ideals in .     

Integrally Closed Domains with Only Finitely Many Star Operations

We prove that an integrally closed domain R admits only finitely many star operations if and only if R satisfies each of the following conditions: (1) R is a Prüfer domain with finite character, (2) all but finitely many maximal ideals of R are divisorial, (3) only finitely many maximal ideals of R contain a nonzero prime ideal that is contained in some other maximal ideal of R, and (4) if P ≠ (0) is the largest prime ideal contained in a (necessarily finite) collection of maximal ideals of R, then the prime spectrum of R/P is finite.     

Lie algebras whose lattice of ideals is closely related with a subspace lattice

Relationships between the structure of a Lie algebra and that of its lattice of ideals is studied for those Lie algebras whose ideal lattice is very close to that of an almost-abelian Lie algebra. It is shown here that if the base field is algebraically closed, finite or the real one, for any n ≥3 the only solvable Lie algebra whose lattice of ideals is isomorphic to that of the (n+l)-dimensional almost-abelian Lie algebra is itself.     

Description of bilateral ideals in a class of noncommutative rings. II

For generalized Weyl algebras containing the universal enveloping algebra Usl (2,K) of the Lie algebra sl (2) over a field with characteristic zero, bilateral ideals are classified. We show that a product of ideals is commutative and any proper ideal can be uniquely decomposed into a product of primary ideals.     

Projective bundle ideals and Poincaré duality algebras

The study of maximal-primary irreducible ideals in a commutative graded connected Noetherian algebra over a field is in principle equivalent to the study of the corresponding quotient algebras. Such algebras are Poincaré duality algebras. A prototype for such an algebra is the cohomology with field coefficients of a closed oriented manifold. Topological constructions on closed manifolds often lead to algebraic constructions on Poincaré duality algebras and therefore also on maximal-primary irreducible ideals. It is the purpose of this note to examine several of these and develop some of their basic properties.
