On the identities of the Grassmann algebras in characteristicp>0
2001
In this note we exhibit bases of the polynomial identities satisfied by the Grassmann algebras over a field of positive characteristic. This allows us to answer the following question of Kemer: Does the infinite dimensional Grassmann algebra with 1, over an infinite fieldK of characteristic 3, satisfy all identities of the algebraM 2(K) of all 2×2 matrices overK? We give a negative answer to this question. Further, we show that certain finite dimensional Grassmann algebras do give a positive answer to Kemer's question. All this allows us to obtain some information about the identities satisfied by the algebraM 2(K) over an infinite fieldK of positive odd characteristic, and to conjecture ba…
Polynomial identities with involution, superinvolutions and the Grassmann envelope
2017
Let A be an algebra with involution ∗ over a field of characteristic zero. We prove that in case A satisfies a non-trivial ∗-identity, then A has the same ∗-identities as the Grassmann envelope of a finite dimensional superalgebra with superinvolution. As a consequence we give a positive answer to the Specht problem for algebras with involution, i.e., any T-ideal of identities of an algebra with involution is finitely generated as a T-ideal.
