In this paper, we consider graded associative conformal algebras. The class of these objects includes pseudo-algebras over non-cocommutative Hopf algebras of regular functions on some linear algebraic groups. In particular, an associative…

A commutative algebra is exact if its multiplication endomorphisms are trace-free and is Killing metrized if its Killing type trace-form is nondegenerate and invariant. A Killing metrized exact commutative algebra is necessarily neither…

A hom-associative algebra is an algebra whose associativity is twisted by an algebra homomorphism. In this paper, we define a cup product on the cohomology of a hom-associative algebra. We show that the cup product together with the degree…

If a graded Lie algebra is the direct sum of two graded sub Lie algebras, its bracket can be written in a form that mimics a "double sided semidirect product". It is called the {\it knit product} of the two subalgebras then. The integrated…

There is a notion of non-commutative Lie algebra called "Leibniz algebra", which is characterized by the condition: left bracketing is a derivation. The purpose of this article is to introduce and study a new notion of algebra, called…

Suppose we wish to embed an (associative) $k$-algebra $A$ in a $k$-algebra $R$ generated in some specified way; e.g., by two elements, or by copies of given $k$-algebras $A_1,$ $A_2,$ $A_3.$ Several authors have obtained sufficient…

It is shown that every n-ary totally Hom-associative algebra with equal twisting maps yields an n-ary Hom-Nambu algebra via an n-ary version of the commutator bracket. The class of n-ary totally Hom-associative algebras is shown to be…

Let $S$ be a unital associative ring and $S[t;\sigma,\delta]$ be a skew polynomial ring, where $\sigma$ is an injective endomorphism of $S$ and $\delta$ a left $\sigma$-derivation. For each $f\in S[t;\sigma,\delta]$ of degree $m>1$ with a…

This paper investigates the homology of the Brauer algebras, interpreted as appropriate Tor-groups, and shows that it is closely related to the homology of the symmetric group. Our main results show that when the defining parameter of the…

In one of our recent papers, the associative and the Lie algebras of Weyl type $A[D]=A\otimes F[D]$ were defined and studied, where $A$ is a commutative associative algebra with an identity element over a field $F$ of any characteristic,…

In this note, we introduce a class of algebras that are in some sense related to conformal algebras. This class (called TC-algebras) includes Weyl algebras and some of their (associative and Lie) subalgebras. By a conformal algebra we…

In this paper, we consider associative algebras equipped with derivations. A pair consisting of an associative algebra and a distinguished derivation is called an AssDer pair. We study central extensions and formal one-parameter…

We present a new method of analysis of associative algebras. This method bears a certain resemblance to the famous analysis of commutative $C^*$-algebras in which an important role is played by multiplicative functionals over the algebra.…

Let $A=B+C$ be an associative algebra graded by a group $G$, which is a sum of two homogeneous subalgebras $B$ and $C$. We prove that if $B$ is an ideal of $A$, and both $B$ and $C$ satisfy graded polynomial identities, then the same…

With the help of the multigraded Nijenhuis-- Richardson bracket and the multigraded Gerstenhaber bracket from [7] for every $n\ge 2$ we define $n$-ary associative algebras and their modules and also $n$-ary Lie algebras and their modules,…

In this paper, we study three classes of subvarieties inside the variety of left-symmetric algebras. We show that these subvarieties are naturally related to some well-known varieties, such as alternative, assosymmetric and Zinbiel…

Let V be a vertex operator algebra. We construct a sequence of associative algebras A_n(V) (n=0,1,2,...) such that A_{n}(V) is a quotient of A_{n+1}(V) and a pair of functors between the category of A_n(V)-modules which are not…

We study $n$-ary commutative superalgebras and $L_{\infty}$-algebras that possess a skew-symmetric invariant form, using the derived bracket formalism. This class of superalgebras includes for instance Lie algebras and their $n$-ary…

An operad describes a category of algebras and a (co)homology theory for these algebras may be formulated using the homological algebra of operads. A morphism of operads $f:\mathcal{O}\rightarrow\mathcal{P}$ describes a functor allowing a…

In this article, we characterise the operadic variety of commutative associative algebras over a field via a (categorical) condition: the associativity of the so-called cosmash product. This condition, which is closely related to commutator…
