Let $L_i(R)$ denote the $i^{\text{th}}$ term of the lower central series of an associative algebra $R$, and let $B_i(R)=L_i(R)/L_{i+1}(R)$. We show that $B_2(\mathbb{C}<x, y>/ P)\cong \Omega^2((\mathbb{C}<x, y>/ P)_{ab})$, for all…

Given a graded associative algebra $A$, its lower central series is defined by $L_1 = A$ and $L_{i+1} = [L_i, A]$. We consider successive quotients $N_i(A) = M_i(A) / M_{i+1}(A)$, where $M_i(A) = AL_i(A) A$. These quotients are direct sums…

Let $A$ be an associative unital algebra, $B_k$ its successive quotients of lower central series and $N_k$ the successive quotients of ideals generated by lower central series. The geometric and algebraic aspects of $B_k$ and $N_k$ have…

Consider the free algebra A_n generated over Q by n generators x_1, ..., x_n. Interesting objects attached to A = A_n are members of its lower central series, L_i = L_i(A), defined inductively by L_1 = A, L_{i+1} = [A,L_{i}], and their…

We study the lower central series filtration L_k for a symplectic quotient A=A_{2n}/<w> of the free algebra A_{2n} on 2n generators, where w=\sum [x_i,x_{i+n}]. We construct an action of the Lie algebra H_{2n} of Hamiltonian vector fields…

This paper concerns the associative lower central series ideals $M_i$ of the free algebra $A_n$ on $n$ generators. Namely, we study the successive quotients $N_i=M_i/M_{i+1}$, which admit an action of the Lie algebra $W_n$ of vector fields…

We continue the study of the lower central series of a free associative algebra, initiated by B. Feigin and B. Shoikhet (arXiv:math/0610410). We generalize via Schur functors the constructions of the lower central series to any symmetric…

We study the quotient Q_i(A) of a free algebra A by the ideal M_i(A) generated by relation that the i-th commutator of any elements is zero. In particular, we completely describe such quotient for i=4 (for i<=3 this was done previously by…

We continue the study of the lower central series and its associated graded components for a free associative algebra with n generators, as initiated by B. Feigin and B. Shoikhet. We establish a linear bound on the degree of tensor field…

We give an accessible introduction into the theory of lower central series of associative algebras, exhibiting the interplay between algebra, geometry and representation theory that is characteristic for this subject, and to discuss some…

By a theorem of Dixmier, primitive quotients of enveloping algebras of finite-dimensional complex nilpotent Lie algebras are isomorphic to Weyl algebras. In view of this result, it is natural to consider simple quotients of positive parts…

In this paper we show that non abelian extensions of an associative algebra $\mathcal{B}$ by an associative algebra $\mathcal{A}$ can be viewed as Maurer-Cartan elements of a suitable differential graded Lie algebra $L$. In particular we…

In this paper we examine how the notion of algebra of quotients for Lie algebras ties up with the corresponding well-known concept in the associative case. Specifically, we completely characterize when a Lie algebra $Q$ is an algebra of…

The quotients $G_k/G_{k+1}$ of the lower central series of a finitely presented group $G$ are an important invariant of this group. In this work we investigate the ranks of these quotients in the case of a certain class of conjugation-free…

We consider the free ${\bf C}$-algebra ${\cal B}_q$ with $N$ generators $\{\xi_i\}_{i = 1,...,N}$, together with a set of $N$ differential operators $\{\partial_i\}_{i = 1,...,N}$ that act as twisted derivations on ${\cal B}_q$ according to…
