It is proved that the C*-algebra of a graph is residually finite dimensional (RFD) if and only if the graph has no infinite receiver, no cycle with an exit, no infinite ackward chain and from each vertex, there is a finite path to a sink or…
Let $S \subset \mathbb{Z}^{d}$ be a finitely generated subsemigroup. Let $E$ be a product system over $S$. We show that there exists an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ and a semigroup $\alpha:=\{\alpha_x\}_{x \in…
Let $f_i$ be polynomials in $n$ variables without a common zero. Hilbert's Nullstellensatz says that there are polynomials $g_i$ such that $\sum g_if_i=1$. The effective versions of this result bound the degrees of the $g_i$ in terms of the…
Let $f$ be a Hochschild $2$-cocycle and let $A_f$ be an infinitesimal deformation of an associative finite dimensional algebra $A$ over an algebraically closed field $\Bbbk$. We investigate the algebra structure of the Ext-algebra of $A_f$…
In \cite{SSZ}, the authors proved that an Artin algebra $A$ with infinite global dimension has an indecomposable module with infinite projective and infinite injective dimension, giving a new characterisation of algebras with finite global…
The genus gen(D) of a finite-dimensional central division algebra D over a field F is defined as the collection of classes [D'] in the Brauer group Br(F), where D' is a central division F-algebra having the same maximal subfields as D. For…
In this paper we introduce an intrinsic version of the classical induction of representations for a subgroup $H$ of a (finite) group $G$, called here {\em geometric induction}, which associates to any, not necessarily transitive, $G$-set…
We observe that a finitely generated algebraic algebra R (over a field) is finite dimensional if and only if the associated graded ring grR is right noetherian, if and only if grR has right Krull dimension, if and only if grR satisfies a…
A differential graded algebra can be viewed as an A-infinity algebra. By a theorem of Kadeishvili, a dga over a field admits a quasi-isomorphism from a minimal A-infinity algebra. We introduce the notion of a derived A-infinity algebra and…
The variety of bicommutative algebras consists of all nonassociative algebras satisfying the polynomial identities of right- and left-commutativity $(x_1x_2)x_3=(x_1x_3)x_2$ and $x_1(x_2x_3)=x_2(x_1x_3)$. Let $F_d$ be the free $d$-generated…
Given a locally nilpotent derivation on an affine algebra $B$ over a field $k$ of characteristic zero, we consider a finitely generated $B$-module $M$ which admits a locally nilpotent module derivation $\delta_M$ (see Definition 1.1 below).…
In this paper we introduce a family of examples that can be regarded as spaces of nonpositive curvature, but with the distinct quality that they are not complete as metric spaces. This amounts to the fact that they are modelled on a finite…
Given a finite set $S$ of places of a number field, we prove that the field of totally $S$-adic algebraic numbers is not Hilbertian.
Let $\mathfrak g$ be a simple Lie algebra over $\mathbb C$ and let $e \in \mathfrak g$ be nilpotent. We consider the finite $W$-algebra $U(\mathfrak g,e)$ associated to $e$ and the problem of determining the variety $\mathcal E(\mathfrak…
A group $G$ is invariably generated (IG) if there is a subset $S \subseteq G$ such that for every subset $S' \subseteq G$, obtained from $S$ by replacing each element with a conjugate, $S'$ generates $G$. $G$ is finitely invariably…
In this work, we study multiplicity-free induced representations of finite groups. We analyze in great detail the structure of the Hecke algebra corresponding to the commutant of an induced representation and then specialize to the…
This paper gives the first explicit example of a finite separating set in an invariant ring which is not finitely generated, namely, for Daigle and Freudenburg's 5-dimensional counterexample to Hilbert's Fourteenth Problem.
Let $A$ be a finitely generated $K$-algebra that is a domain of GK dimension less than 3, and let $Q(A)$ denote the quotient division algebra of $A$. We show that if $D$ is a division subalgebra of $Q(A)$ of GK dimension at least 2 then…
Let A be an associative algebra of arbitrary dimension over a field F and G a finite soluble group of automorphisms of A oforder n, prime to the characteristic of F. We prove that if the fixed-point subalgebra of A under the action of G…
We study general nilpotent algebras. The results obtained are new even for the classical algebras, such as associative or Lie algebras. We single out certain generic properties of finite-dimensional algebras, mostly over infinite fields.…
