In this paper we study the existence of gradings on finite dimensional associative algebras. We prove that a connected algebra $A$ does not have a non-trivial grading if and only if $A$ is basic, its quiver has one vertex, and its group of…

Clifford algebras are naturally associated with quadratic forms. These algebras are Z_2-graded by construction. However, only a Z_n-gradation induced by a choice of a basis, or even better, by a Chevalley vector space isomorphism Cl(V) <->…

We give a full classification, up to equivalence, of finite-dimensional graded division algebras over the field of real numbers. The grading group is any abelian group.

It is shown that the ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric quantum mechanics (SQM) can be extended to a $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$-graded superalgebra. This is done by presenting quantum mechanical models which realize, with the aid of Clifford gamma matrices,…

Using the Polya Enumeration Theorem, we count with particular attention to C^3/Gamma up to C^6/Gamma, abelian orbifolds in various dimensions which are invariant under cycles of the permutation group S_D. This produces a collection of…

An almost commutative algebra, or a $\rho$-commutative algebra, is an algebra which is graded by an abelian group and whose commutativity is controlled by a function called a commutation factor. The same way as a formulation of a…

A classification of idempotents in Clifford algebras C(p,q) is presented. It is shown that using isomorphisms between Clifford algebras C(p,q) and appropriate matrix rings, it is possible to classify idempotents in any Clifford algebra into…

We consider central simple $K$-algebras which happen to bedifferential graded $K$-algebras. Two such algebras $A$ and $B$are considered equivalent if there are bounded complexes of finite dimensional$K$-vector spaces $C_A$ and $C_B$ such…

It is shown that classical Clifford algebras are group algebras of cyclic subgroups of arrowy rermutations. It is established that Euclidean 3-space, Pauli and Dirac algebras and groups of global guage transformations are corollary from the…

Is there more to Dirac's gamma matrices than meets the eye? It turns out that gamma zero can be factorized into a product of three operators. This revelation facilitates the expansion of Dirac's space-time algebra to Clifford algebra…

Many previously studied path algebras or self-similar group algebras may be viewed as Steinberg algebras of self-similar groupoids. By way of inverse semigroup algebras, we characterize when the Steinberg algebra of a self-similar groupoid…

We give a graphical calculus for a categorification of a Clifford algebra and its Fock space representation via differential graded categories. The categorical action is motivated by the gluing action between the contact categories of…

Positively graded algebras are fairly natural objects which are arduous to be studied. In this article we query quotients of non-standard graded polynomial rings with combinatorial and commutative algebra methods.

The purpose of this paper is a partial progress towards classification of simple infinite dimensional Jordan superalgebras. First, we prove that the only simple infinite dimensional Jordan superalgebras with finite dimensional even parts…

The Clifford algebra of a n-dimensional Euclidean vector space provides a general language comprising vectors, complex numbers, quaternions, Grassman algebra, Pauli and Dirac matrices. In this work, we present an introduction to the main…

For two derived equivalent $k$-algebras $\bar\Lambda$ and $\bar\Gamma$, we introduce a correspondence between $\OO$-orders reducing to $\bar\Lambda$ and $\OO$-orders reducing to $\bar\Gamma$. We outline how this may be used to transfer…

Let G be a group and let W be an algebra over a field K. We will say that W is a G-graded twisted algebra if W can be written as a direct sum over the elements of G of one dimensional K-vector spaces. It is also assumed that W has no…

We investigate the notion of associated graded coalgebra (algebra) of a bialgebra with respect to a subbialgebra (quotient bialgebra) and characterize those which are bialgebras of type one in the framework of abelian braided monoidal…

Let A be a commutative ring with 1/2 in A. In this paper, we define new characteristic classes for finitely generated projective A-modules V provided with a non degenerate quadratic form. These classes belong to the usual K-theory of A.…

Let $K$ be a field, $\Gamma $ a finite group of field automorphisms of $K$, $F$ the $\Gamma $-fixed field in $K$ and $G\leq $GL$_v(K)$ a finite matrix group. Then the action of $\Gamma $ defines a grading on the symmetric algebra of the…
