Let $k$ be a field. We show that a finitely generated simple Goldie $k$-algebra of quadratic growth is noetherian and has Krull dimension 1. Thus a simple algebra of quadratic growth is left noetherian if and only if it is right noetherian.…

We study growth and complexity of \'etale groupoids in relation to growth of their convolution algebras. As an application, we construct simple finitely generated algebras of arbitrary Gelfand-Kirillov dimension $\ge 2$ and simple finitely…

We study prime algebras of quadratic growth. Our first result is that if $A$ is a prime monomial algebra of quadratic growth then $A$ has finitely many prime ideals $P$ such that $A/P$ has GK dimension one. This shows that prime monomial…

Let $H$ be a pointed Hopf algebra. We show that under some mild assumptions $H$ and its associated graded Hopf algebra $\gr H$ have the same Gelfand-Kirillov dimension. As an application, we prove that the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension of a…

In this note, we give a new proof of the fact that an affine semiprime algebra R of Gelfand-Kirillov dimension 1 satisfies a polynomial identity. Our proof uses only the growth properties of the algebra and yields an explicit upper bound…

We study the existence of free subalgebras in division algebras, and prove the following general result: if $A$ is a noetherian domain which is countably generated over an uncountable algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic 0, then…

Let $K$ be a field and let $A$ be a finitely generated prime $K$-algebra. We generalize a result of Smith and Zhang, showing that if $A$ is not PI and does not have a locally nilpotent ideal, then the extended centre of $A$ has…

Let $A$ be a right noetherian algebra over a field $k$. If the base field extension $A \otimes_k K$ remains right noetherian for all extension fields $K$ of $k$, then $A$ is called stably right noetherian over $k$. We develop an inductive…

We consider the infinite dimensional Grassmann algebra E over a field F of characteristic 0 or p, where p>2, and we compute its Z_2-graded Gelfand-Kirillov dimension as a Z_2-graded PI-algebra.

We classify pointed Hopf algebras with finite Gelfand-Kirillov dimension, which are domains, whose groups of group-like elements are finitely generated and abelian, and whose infinitesimal braidings are positive.

Between the braided vector spaces of diagonal type there exist some families whose associated Nichols algebras are infinite dimensional but with finite Gelfand-Kirillov dimension, called one-parameter families. We show that every…

Bartholdi and Smoktunowicz constructed finitely generated monomial algebras with prescribed sufficiently fast growth types. We show that their construction need not result in a prime algebra, but it can be modified to provide prime algebras…

An almost PI algebra is a generalisation of a just infinite algebra which does not satisfy a polynomial identity. An almost PI algebra has some nice properties: It is prime, has a countable cofinal subset of ideals and when satisfying…

Rehren proved that a primitive 2-generated axial algebra of Monster type $(\alpha,\beta)$ has dimension at most eight if $\alpha\notin\{2\beta,4\beta\}$. In this note we construct an infinite-dimensional 2-generated primitive axial algebra…

Let K be a field of characteristic 0 and L be a G-graded Lie PI-algebra, where G is a finite group. We define the graded Gelfand-Kirillov dimension of L. Then we measure the growth of the Z_n-graded polynomial identities of the Lie algebra…

Let G be a finite group and A a finite dimensional G-graded algebra over a field of characteristic zero. When A is simple as a G-graded algebra, by mean of Regev central polynomials we construct multialternating graded polynomials of…

We define a transcendence degree for division algebras, by modifying the lower transcendence degree construction of Zhang. We show that this invariant has many of the desirable properties one would expect a noncommutative analogue of the…

Hecke-Kiselman algebras $A_{\Theta}$, over a field $k$, associated to finite oriented graphs $\Theta$ are considered. It has been known that every such algebra is an automaton algebra in the sense of Ufranovskii. In particular, its…

We study prime monomial algebras. Our main result is that a prime finitely presented monomial algebra is either primitive or it has GK dimension one and satisfies a polynomial identity. More generally, we show this result holds for the…

A non-nilpotent variety of algebras is almost nilpotent if any proper subvariety is nilpotent. Let the base field be of characteristic zero. It has been shown that for associative or Lie algebras only one such variety exists. Here we…
