Group algebras and Lie nilpotence
2013
Abstract Let ⁎ be an involution of a group algebra FG induced by an involution of the group G. For char F ≠ 2 , we classify the groups G with no 2-elements and with no nonabelian dihedral groups involved whose Lie algebra of ⁎-skew elements is nilpotent.
Codimension growth and minimal superalgebras
2003
A celebrated theorem of Kemer (1978) states that any algebra satisfying a polynomial identity over a field of characteristic zero is PI-equivalent to the Grassmann envelope G(A) of a finite dimensional superalgebra A. In this paper, by exploiting the basic properties of the exponent of a PI-algebra proved by Giambruno and Zaicev (1999), we define and classify the minimal superalgebras of a given exponent over a field of characteristic zero. In particular we prove that these algebras can be realized as block-triangular matrix algebras over the base field. The importance of such algebras is readily proved: A is a minimal superalgebra if and only if the ideal of identities of G(A) is a product…
The parameterized local deduction theorem for quasivarieties of algebras and its application
1996
Let τ be an algebraic type. To each classK of τ-algebras a consequence relation ⊧ K defined on the set of τ-equations is assigned. Some weak forms of the deduction theorem for ⊧ K and their algebraic counterparts are investigated. The (relative) congruence extension property (CEP) and its variants are discussed.CEP is shown to be equivalent to a parameter-free form of the deduction theorem for the consequence ⊧ K .CEP has a strong impact on the structure ofK: for many quasivarietiesK,CEP implies thatK is actually a variety. This phenomenon is thoroughly discussed in Section 5. We also discuss first-order definability of relative principal congruences. This property is equivalent to the fact…
Maximal function estimates and self-improvement results for Poincaré inequalities
2018
Our main result is an estimate for a sharp maximal function, which implies a Keith–Zhong type self-improvement property of Poincaré inequalities related to differentiable structures on metric measure spaces. As an application, we give structure independent representation for Sobolev norms and universality results for Sobolev spaces. peerReviewed
Quasi-conformal mapping theorem and bifurcations
1998
LetH be a germ of holomorphic diffeomorphism at 0 ∈ ℂ. Using the existence theorem for quasi-conformal mappings, it is possible to prove that there exists a multivalued germS at 0, such thatS(ze 2πi )=H○S(z) (1). IfH λ is an unfolding of diffeomorphisms depending on λ ∈ (ℂ,0), withH 0=Id, one introduces its ideal $$\mathcal{I}_H$$ . It is the ideal generated by the germs of coefficients (a i (λ), 0) at 0 ∈ ℂ k , whereH λ(z)−z=Σa i (λ)z i . Then one can find a parameter solutionS λ (z) of (1) which has at each pointz 0 belonging to the domain of definition ofS 0, an expansion in seriesS λ(z)=z+Σb i (λ)(z−z 0) i with $$(b_i ,0) \in \mathcal{I}_H$$ , for alli. This result may be applied to the…
Finite-dimensional non-associative algebras and codimension growth
2011
AbstractLet A be a (non-necessarily associative) finite-dimensional algebra over a field of characteristic zero. A quantitative estimate of the polynomial identities satisfied by A is achieved through the study of the asymptotics of the sequence of codimensions of A. It is well known that for such an algebra this sequence is exponentially bounded.Here we capture the exponential rate of growth of the sequence of codimensions for several classes of algebras including simple algebras with a special non-degenerate form, finite-dimensional Jordan or alternative algebras and many more. In all cases such rate of growth is integer and is explicitly related to the dimension of a subalgebra of A. One…
Varieties of almost polynomial growth: classifying their subvarieties
2007
Let G be the infinite dimensional Grassmann algebra over a field F of characteristic zero and UT2 the algebra of 2 x 2 upper triangular matrices over F. The relevance of these algebras in PI-theory relies on the fact that they generate the only two varieties of almost polynomial growth, i.e., they grow exponentially but any proper subvariety grows polynomially. In this paper we completely classify, up to PI-equivalence, the associative algebras A such that A is an element of Var(G) or A is an element of Var(UT2).
Matrix algebras of polynomial codimension growth
2007
We study associative algebras with unity of polynomial codimension growth. For any fixed degree $k$ we construct associative algebras whose codimension sequence has the largest and the smallest possible polynomial growth of degree $k$. We also explicitly describe the identities and the exponential generating functions of these algebras.
A class of nilpotent Lie algebras admitting a compact subgroup of automorphisms
2017
Abstract The realification of the ( 2 n + 1 ) -dimensional complex Heisenberg Lie algebra is a ( 4 n + 2 ) -dimensional real nilpotent Lie algebra with a 2-dimensional commutator ideal coinciding with the centre, and admitting the compact algebra sp ( n ) of derivations. We investigate, in general, whether a real nilpotent Lie algebra with 2-dimensional commutator ideal coinciding with the centre admits a compact Lie algebra of derivations. This also gives us the occasion to revisit a series of classic results, with the expressed aim of attracting the interest of a broader audience.
An almost nilpotent variety of exponent 2
2013
We construct a non-associative algebra A over a field of characteristic zero with the following properties: if V is the variety generated by A, then V has exponential growth but any proper subvariety of V is nilpotent. Moreover, by studying the asymptotics of the sequence of codimensions of A we deduce that exp(V) = 2.
