A universal coefficient theorem is proved for C*-algebras over an arbitrary finite T_0-space X which have vanishing boundary maps. Under bootstrap assumptions, this leads to a complete classification of unital/stable real-rank-zero…

We show, using a ranbow construction for cylindric algebras, that for any class K between diagonal free cylindric algebras and polyadic equality algebras of finite dimension > 2, there is no finite variable universal axiomatization for the…

We prove that for an arbitrary field $k,$ a complete, associative $k^r$-algebra $\hat H$ augmented over $k^r$ has exactly $r$ maximal two-sided ideals and deserves the name $r$-pointed. If $A$ is any $k$-algebra, $M=\{M_i\}_{i=1}^r$ is a…

Jacobian conjectures (that nonsingular implies invertible) for rational everywhere defined maps of real n-space to itself are considered, with no requirement for a constant Jacobian determinant or a rational inverse. The associated…

We solve two longstanding major problems in Free Probability. This is achieved by generalising the theory to one with values in arbitrary commutative algebras. We prove the existence of the multi-variable $S$-transform, and show that it is…

For every field $F$ which has a quadratic extension $E$ we show there are non-metabelian infinite-dimensional thin graded Lie algebras all of whose homogeneous components, except the second one, have dimension $2$. We construct such Lie…

In commutative algebra, if $\delta$ is a locally nilpotent derivation of the polynomial algebra $K[x_1,\ldots,x_d]$ over a field $K$ of characteristic 0 and $w$ is a nonzero element of the kernel of $\delta$, then $\Delta=w\delta$ is also a…

One of the natural ways to prove that the Hall words (Philip Hall, 1933) consist of a basis of a free Lie algebra is a direct construction: to start with a linear space spanned by Hall words, to define the Lie product of Hall words, and…

We find the minimal dimension for a truncated polynomial algebra over an arbitrary field for which there exists a "non-thin" subalgebra. Moreover, we discuss examples of subalgebras, and count them in low dimensions.

Let $n$ be a positive integer, and let $k$ be a field (of arbitrary characteristic) accessible to symbolic computation. We describe an algorithmic test for determining whether or not a finitely presented $k$-algebra $R$ has infinitely many…

It is proved that for any natural number $n$ the subalgebra of a free finitely generated alternative algebra generated by all the words on generators whose length is a multiple of $n$ (the Veronese $n$-subalgebra), is finitely generated.

We consider the relation between higher spin gauge fields and real Kac-Moody Lie algebras. These algebras are obtained by double and triple extensions of real forms g_0 of the finite-dimensional simple algebras g arising in dimensional…

Let G be a group and k a field of characteristic zero. We prove that if the Farrell-Jones conjecture for the K-theory of R[G] is satisfied for every smooth k-algebra R, then it is also satisfied for every commutative k-algebra R.

The hyperbolic (and more generally, Lorentzian) Kac-Moody (KM) Lie algebras $\cA$ of rank $r+2 > 2$ are shown to have a rich structure of indefinite KM subalgebras which can be described by specifying a subset of positive real roots of…

In this paper, we prove that the multiplicative group of a unital non-commutative Leavitt path algebra $L_K(E)$ and Cohn path algebra $C_K(E)$ contain a non-cyclic free subgroup, provided $K$ is a non-absolute field. We also provide a…

With a minor change made in the previous construction we observe that any reduced HNN extension is precisely a compressed algebra of a certain reduced amalgamated free product in both the von Neumann algebra and the $C^*$-algebra settings.…

Let g be a finite dimensional simple Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We show that if the Gelfand-Kirillov conjecture holds for g, then g has type A_n, C_n or G_2.

We establish a characterization of supernilpotent Mal'cev algebras which generalizes the affine structure of abelian Mal'cev algebras and the recent characterization of 3-supernilpotent Mal'cev algebras. We then show that for varieties in…

Let K<X> be a free associative algebra over a field K of characteristic 0 and let each of the noncommuting polynomials f,g generate its centralizer in K<X>. Assume that the leading homogeneous components of f and g are algebraically…

Let k be a base commutative ring, R a commutative ring of coefficients, X a quasi-compact quasi-separated k-scheme, A a sheaf of Azumaya algebras over X of rank r, and Hmo(R) the category of noncommutative motives with R-coefficients.…
