The Golod Shafarevich counter-example without Hilbert series

Rings and Algebras 2009-01-13 v1

Abstract

Let FF be an arbitrary field. The Golod-Shafarevich example of a finitely generated nil FF-algebra which is infinite dimensional -- is revisited. Here we offer a rather elementary treatment of that example, in which induction replaces Hilbert series techniques. This note also contains a detailed exposition of the construction of that example.
