This article contains a noncommutative generalization of the topological path lifting problem. Noncommutative geometry has no paths and even points. However there are paths of *-automorphisms. It is proven that paths of *-automorphisms…
We consider some special type extensions of an arbitrary Lie algebra, which we call universal extensions. We show that these extensions are in one-to-one correspondence with finite dimensional associative commutative algebras. We also…
We give a conceptual explanation of universal deformation formulas for unital associative algebras and prove some results on the structure of their moduli spaces. We then generalize universal deformation formulas to other types of algebras…
It is proved that that every nilpotent contraction in a quotient C*-algebra can be lifted to a nilpotent contraction. As a consequence we get that the universal C*-algebra generated by a nilpotent contraction is projective. This answers the…
We characterize vertex algebras (in a suitable sense) as algebras over a certain graded co-operad. We also discuss some examples and categorical implications of this characterization.
We solve a class of lifting problems involving approximate polynomial relations (soft polynomial relations). Various associated C*-algebras are therefore projective. The technical lemma we need is a new manifestation of Akemann and…
This paper presents a selected tour through the theory and applications of lifts of convex sets. A lift of a convex set is a higher-dimensional convex set that projects onto the original set. Many convex sets have lifts that are…
We introduce generalised orbit algebras. The purpose here is to measure how some combinatorial properties can characterize the action of a group of permutations on the subsets. The similarity with orbit algebras is such that it took the…
We define lifting properties for universal algebras, which we study in this general context and then particularize to various such properties in certain classes of algebras. Next we focus on residuated lattices, in which we investigate…
By recasting metrical geometry in a purely algebraic setting, both Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometries can be studied over a general field with an arbitrary quadratic form. Both an affine and a projective version of this new theory are…
A Universal Mapping Property is generally described as a characterization of an object up to a unique isomorphism by considering its relation to every other object; however, the term "by considering its relation to every other object" is…
In this paper, we find a criterium for universal equivalence of partially commutative Lie algebras whose defining graphs are trees. Besides, we obtain bases for partially commutative metabelian Lie algebras.
Let p be a polynomial in one variable. It is shown that the universal C*-algebra of the relation p(x)=0, \|x\| \le C is semiprojective, residually finite-dimensional and has trivial extension group.
We discuss the noncommutative generalizations of polynomial algebras which after appropriate completions can be used as coordinate algebras in various noncommutative settings, (noncommutative differential geometry, noncommutative algebraic…
We develop a general framework for working with structured lifting problems, establishing closure and uniqueness properties of their solutions. In a subsequent paper, we apply these results to axiomatize computation rules of cubical type…
The problem of quantizing theories defined over configuration spaces described by non-commuting parameters is considered. In this paper we describe the first step in this direction, that is the definition of an integral over a general…
Several structural properties of a universal algebra can be seen from the higher commutators of its congruences. Even on a finite algebra, the sequence of higher commutator operations is an infinite object. In the present paper, we exhibit…
Inspired by the commutator and anticommutator algebras derived from algebras graded by groups, we introduce noncommutatively graded algebras. We generalize various classical graded results to the noncommutatively graded situation concerning…
We characterize the existence of horizontal path lifts for general connections on arbitrary fiber bundles with a new property that also gives fresh insight into linear and $G$-connections.
The underlying algebra for a noncommutative geometry is taken to be a matrix algebra, and the set of derivatives the adjoint of a subset of traceless matrices. This is sufficient to calculate the dual 1-forms, and show that the space of…
