Abstract

Suppose AA is a graded associative algebra over a field, II is its ideal generated by a set α\alpha of homogeneous elements, and B = A/I. In this note, some inequalities between Hilbert series of algebras A,BA,B and the number of elements of the set α\alpha are announced. As in the Golod--Shafarevich inequality as in our case the equality in every estimate is exact iff the set α\alpha is strongly free: so we obtain some new characterizations of such sets. As a consequence it is proved that over a field of zero characteristic for the class of finitely defined graded algebras there is no algorithm to answer the following question: for an algebra AA and a rational number RR, is the convergence radius of the Hilbert series of AA equal to RR?
