Varieties of algebras with pseudoinvolution and polynomial growth
2017
Let A be an associative algebra with pseudoinvolution (Formula presented.) over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and let (Formula presented.) be its sequence of (Formula presented.) -codimensions. We shall prove that such a sequence is polynomially bounded if and only if the variety generated by A does not contain five explicitly described algebras with pseudoinvolution. As a consequence, we shall classify the varieties of algebras with pseudoinvolution of almost polynomial growth, i.e. varieties of exponential growth such that any proper subvariety has polynomial growth and, along the way, we shall give also the classification of their subvarieties. Finally, we shall de…
Group graded algebras and almost polynomial growth
2011
Let F be a field of characteristic 0, G a finite abelian group and A a G-graded algebra. We prove that A generates a variety of G-graded algebras of almost polynomial growth if and only if A has the same graded identities as one of the following algebras: (1) FCp, the group algebra of a cyclic group of order p, where p is a prime number and p||G|; (2) UT2G(F), the algebra of 2×2 upper triangular matrices over F endowed with an elementary G-grading; (3) E, the infinite dimensional Grassmann algebra with trivial G-grading; (4) in case 2||G|, EZ2, the Grassmann algebra with canonical Z2-grading.

Polynomial identities on superalgebras: Classifying linear growth
2006
Abstract We classify, up to PI-equivalence, the superalgebras over a field of characteristic zero whose sequence of codimensions is linearly bounded. As a consequence we determine the linear functions describing the graded codimensions of a superalgebra.
Polynomial codimension growth of algebras with involutions and superinvolutions
2017
Abstract Let A be an associative algebra over a field F of characteristic zero endowed with a graded involution or a superinvolution ⁎ and let c n ⁎ ( A ) be its sequence of ⁎-codimensions. In [4] , [12] it was proved that if A is finite dimensional such sequence is polynomially bounded if and only if A generates a variety not containing a finite number of ⁎-algebras: the group algebra of Z 2 and a 4-dimensional subalgebra of the 4 × 4 upper triangular matrices with suitable graded involutions or superinvolutions. In this paper we focus our attention on such algebras since they are the only finite dimensional ⁎-algebras, up to T 2 ⁎ -equivalence, generating varieties of almost polynomial gr…
Polynomial growth of the codimensions: a characterization
2009
Let A A be a not necessarily associative algebra over a field of characteristic zero. Here we characterize the T-ideal of identities of A A in case the corresponding sequence of codimensions is polynomially bounded.
Characterizing varieties of colength ≤4
2009
Let A be an associative algebra over a field F of characteristic zero, and let χ n (A), n = 1,2,…, be the sequence of cocharacters of A. For every n ≥ 1, let l n (A) denote the nth colength of A, counting the number of S n -irreducibles appearing in χ n (A). In this article, we classify the algebras A such that the sequence of colengths l n (A), n = 1,2,…, is bounded by four. Moreover we construct a finite number of algebras A 1,…, A d , such that l n (A) ≤ 4 if and only if A 1,…, A d ∉ var(A).
Superalgebras with Involution or Superinvolution and Almost Polynomial Growth of the Codimensions
2018
Let A be a superalgebra with graded involution or superinvolution ∗ and let $c_{n}^{*}(A)$, n = 1,2,…, be its sequence of ∗-codimensions. In case A is finite dimensional, in Giambruno et al. (Algebr. Represent. Theory 19(3), 599–611 2016, Linear Multilinear Algebra 64(3), 484–501 2016) it was proved that such a sequence is polynomially bounded if and only if the variety generated by A does not contain the group algebra of $\mathbb {Z}_{2}$ and a 4-dimensional subalgebra of the 4 × 4 upper-triangular matrices with suitable graded involutions or superinvolutions. In this paper we study the general case of ∗-superalgebras satisfying a polynomial identity. As a consequence we classify the varie…
Star-fundamental algebras: polynomial identities and asymptotics
2020
We introduce the notion of star-fundamental algebra over a field of characteristic zero. We prove that in the framework of the theory of polynomial identities, these algebras are the building blocks of a finite dimensional algebra with involution ∗ * . To any star-algebra A A is attached a numerical sequence c n ∗ ( A ) c_n^*(A) , n ≥ 1 n\ge 1 , called the sequence of ∗ * -codimensions of A A . Its asymptotic is an invariant giving a measure of the ∗ * -polynomial identities satisfied by A A . It is well known that for a PI-algebra such a sequence is exponentially bounded and exp ∗ ( A ) = lim n → ∞ c n ∗ ( A ) n \exp ^*(A)=\lim _{n\to \infty }\sqrt [n]{c_n^*(A)} can be explicitly compute…
Standard polynomials and matrices with superinvolutions
2016
Abstract Let M n ( F ) be the algebra of n × n matrices over a field F of characteristic zero. The superinvolutions ⁎ on M n ( F ) were classified by Racine in [12] . They are of two types, the transpose and the orthosymplectic superinvolution. This paper is devoted to the study of ⁎-polynomial identities satisfied by M n ( F ) . The goal is twofold. On one hand, we determine the minimal degree of a standard polynomial vanishing on suitable subsets of symmetric or skew-symmetric matrices for both types of superinvolutions. On the other, in case of M 2 ( F ) , we find generators of the ideal of ⁎-identities and we compute the corresponding sequences of cocharacters and codimensions.
