Monoidal Hom–Hopf Algebras

Hom-structures (Lie algebras, algebras, coalgebras, Hopf algebras) have been investigated in the literature recently. We study Hom-structures from the point of view of monoidal categories; in particular, we introduce a symmetric monoidal category such that Hom-algebras coincide with algebras in this monoidal category, and similar properties for coalgebras, Hopf algebras, and Lie algebras.     

Quadratic Lie Algebras

In this article, the notion of universal enveloping algebra introduced in Ardizzoni [4 Ardizzoni , A. On primitively generated braided bialgebras . Algebr. Represent. Theory , to appear. (doi:10.1007/s10468-010-9257-z)  [Google Scholar]] is specialized to the case of braided vector spaces whose Nichols algebra is quadratic as an algebra. In this setting, a classification of universal enveloping algebras for braided vector spaces of dimension not greater than 2 is handled. As an application, we investigate the structure of primitively generated connected braided bialgebras whose braided vector space of primitive elements forms a Nichols algebra, which is a quadratic algebra.

We classify the primitive ideals of noetherian generalized down-up algebras.     

Powers of the Vertex Cover Ideal of a Chordal Graph

In this article, Cohen–Macaulay chordal graphs and generalized star graphs are studied to show that all powers of the vertex cover ideal of such graphs have linear quotients. Moreover, it is shown that the Alexander dual of the clique complex of any chordal graph is vertex decomposable.     

Ore Extensions of Multiplier Hopf Algebras

The goal of this article is to generalize the theory of Hopf–Ore extensions on Hopf algebras to multiplier Hopf algebras. First the concept of a Hopf–Ore extension of a multiplier Hopf algebra is introduced. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for Ore extensions to become a multiplier Hopf algebra. Finally, *-structures are constructed on Hopf–Ore extensions, and certain isomorphisms between Hopf–Ore extensions are discussed.     

On the Factorial Closure of Certain Monomial Modules

Abstract

Let R = K[y ₁,…,y _t ] be an affine domain over a field K and I be a nonzero proper ideal of R. In Sec. 1 of this note, we characterize when (K + I, R) is a Mori pair. In Sec. 2 of this note, we prove the following theorem: Let A ? B be domains such that C/Q is Mori for each subring C of B containing A and for any prime ideal Q of C. Then dim A ? 1 ≤ dim B ≤ dim A + 1 and if dim A > 1 or dim B > 1 then dim A = dim B.     

Asymptotic Sequences over a Module

Let (R, 𝔪) be a Noetherian local ring and M be a submodule of the free module F = R ^r with height(I _r (M)) > 0. Asymptotic sequences over M will be defined analogous to Rees’ definition of asymptotic sequences over an ideal. It is then shown that all maximal asymptotic sequences over M have the same length. This length gives a bound on the analytic spread of M. Namely, if s is the length of a maximal asymptotic sequence over M then l(M) ≤dim R + rank M ? 1 ? s. Equality holds if R is quasi-unmixed.
