On the Codimension Growth of Finite-Dimensional Lie Algebras

1999

Abstract We study the exponential growth of the codimensions cn(L) of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra L over a field of characteristic zero. We show that if the solvable radical of L is nilpotent then lim n → ∞ c n ( L ) exists and is an integer.

Standard polynomials are characterized by their degree and exponent

2011

Abstract By the Giambruno–Zaicev theorem (Giambruno and Zaicev, 1999) [5] , the exponent exp ( A ) of a p.i. algebra A exists, and is always an integer. In Berele and Regev (2001) [2] it was shown that the exponent exp ( St n ) of the standard polynomial St n of degree n is not smaller than the exponent of any polynomial of degree n. Here it is proved that exp ( St n ) is strictly larger than the exponent of any other polynomial of degree n which is not a multiple of St n .

Involution codimensions and trace codimensions of matrices are asymptotically equal

1996

We calculate the asymptotic growth oft n (M p (F),*) andc n (M p (F),*), the trace and ordinary *-codimensions ofp×p matrices with involution. To do this we first calculate the asymptotic growth oft n and then show thatc n ⋍t n .
