Algebras of pseudodifferential operators on complete manifolds

2003

In several influential works, Melrose has studied examples of non-compact manifolds M 0 M_0 whose large scale geometry is described by a Lie algebra of vector fields V ⊂ Γ ( M ; T M ) \mathcal V \subset \Gamma (M;TM) on a compactification of M 0 M_0 to a manifold with corners M M . The geometry of these manifolds—called “manifolds with a Lie structure at infinity”—was studied from an axiomatic point of view in a previous paper of ours. In this paper, we define and study an algebra Ψ 1 , 0 , V ∞ ( M 0 ) \Psi _{1,0,\mathcal V}^\infty (M_0) of pseudodifferential operators canonically associated to a manifold M 0 M_0 with a Lie structure at infinity V ⊂ Γ ( M ; T M ) \mathcal V \subset \Gamma (…

The graded identities of upper triangular matrices of size two

2002

AbstractLet UT2 be the algebra of 2×2 upper triangular matrices over a field F. We first classify all possible gradings on UT2 by a group G. It turns out that, up to isomorphism, there is only one non-trivial grading and we study all the graded polynomial identities for such algebra. In case F is of characteristic zero we give a complete description of the space of multilinear graded identities in the language of Young diagrams through the representation theory of the hyperoctahedral group. We finally establish a result concerning the rate of growth of the identities for such algebra by proving that its sequence of graded codimensions has almost polynomial growth.

An extension of the algebra of sets

1973

We shall explain the aim which leads us in the construction of an extended system of the algebra of sets1. The symbol 1. {*:?(*)} denoting the set of these and only these elements of domain of the variable x which satisfy the propositional condition (propositional function or form) ?9 (x)" is in com? mon use nowadays, so that it is adopted in school courses of mathematics in many countries, and in Poland as well. This condition will be said to define the set 1. However, if we admit propositional conditions which are meaningless for some values of their variables then we encounter some difficulties connected with the ex? pression 1. The formulae 2. {x : 9 (*)} = {x : 9 (*)}' 3. {x : 9 (s) v …

POLYNOMIAL IDENTITIES ON SUPERALGEBRAS AND ALMOST POLYNOMIAL GROWTH

2001

Let A be a superalgebra over a field of characteristic zero. In this paper we investigate the graded polynomial identities of A through the asymptotic behavior of a numerical sequence called the sequence of graded codimensions of A. Our main result says that such sequence is polynomially bounded if and only if the variety of superalgebras generated by A does not contain a list of five superalgebras consisting of a 2-dimensional algebra, the infinite dimensional Grassmann algebra and the algebra of 2 × 2 upper triangular matrices with trivial and nontrivial gradings. Our main tool is the representation theory of the symmetric group.

Graded polynomial identities and Specht property of the Lie algebrasl2

2013

Abstract Let G be a group. The Lie algebra sl 2 of 2 × 2 traceless matrices over a field K can be endowed up to isomorphism, with three distinct non-trivial G-gradings induced by the groups Z 2 , Z 2 × Z 2 and Z . It has been recently shown (Koshlukov, 2008 [8] ) that for each grading the ideal of G-graded identities has a finite basis. In this paper we prove that when char ( K ) = 0 , the algebra sl 2 endowed with each of the above three gradings has an ideal of graded identities Id G ( sl 2 ) satisfying the Specht property, i.e., every ideal of graded identities containing Id G ( sl 2 ) is finitely based.

The Virasoro Algebra

1989

In this chapter we shall study the Lie algebra Vect S1 of vector fields on a circle and some of its generalizations. The Lie algebra Vect S1 has a central extension, the Virasoro algebra. The representation theory of the Virasoro algebra is closely related to the representation theory of affine Lie algebras. In fact, through the Sugawara construction, to be defined below, a highest weight representation of an affine Lie algebra carries always a highest weight representation of the Virasoro algebra. All the irreducible highest weight representations of the Virasoro algebra are known and they can be exponentiated to representations of associated infinite-dimensional Lie groups. The representa…

The Bohm-Aharonov effect: A seven-dimensional structural group

1996

We realize a nonfaithful representation of a seven-dimensional Lie algebra, the extension of which to its universal enveloping algebra contains most of the observables of the scattering Aharonov-Bohm effect, as essentially self-adjoint operators: the scattering Hamiltonian, the total and kinetic angular momenta, the positions and the kinetic momenta. By restriction, we obtain the model introduced in Lett. Math. Phys.1 (1976), 155–163.

Quantum and Braided Integrals

2001

We give a pedagogical introduction to integration techniques appropriate for non-commutative spaces while presenting some new results as well. A rather detailed discussion outlines the motivation for adopting the Hopf algebra language. We then present some trace formulas for the integral on Hopf algebras and show how to treat the $\int 1=0$ case. We extend the discussion to braided Hopf algebras relying on diagrammatic techniques. The use of the general formulas is illustrated by explicitly worked out examples.

On the graded identities and cocharacters of the algebra of 3×3 matrices

2004

Abstract Let M2,1(F) be the algebra of 3×3 matrices over an algebraically closed field F of characteristic zero with non-trivial Z 2 -grading. We study the graded identities of this algebra through the representation theory of the hyperoctahedral group Z 2 ∼S n . After splitting the space of multilinear polynomial identities into the sum of irreducibles under the Z 2 ∼S n -action, we determine all the irreducible Z 2 ∼S n -characters appearing in this decomposition with non-zero multiplicity. We then apply this result in order to study the graded cocharacter of the Grassmann envelope of M2,1(F). Finally, using the representation theory of the general linear group, we determine all the grade…
