On the injectivity of evaluation maps induced by polynomials on certain algebras

Rings and Algebras 2025-08-26 v1

Abstract

We explore the injectivity of the evaluation map eva f,A from Am A to A, where A is an associative algebra over a field F, and f is a polynomial in m \ge 1 variables with coefficients in F. Our investigation reveals that injectivity is possible only when m equal 1 and f has degree one; for functions in two or more variables, such injectivity is impossible.
