A family of deformed Hopf algebras corresponding to the classical maximal isometry algebras of zero-curvature N-dimensional spaces (the inhomogeneous algebras iso(p,q), p+q=N, as well as some of their contractions) are shown to have a…
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 $(M, q)$ be a quadratic projective module of an odd rank over an commutative ring, where the form $q$ is semiregular, with global Witt index of at least $2$, and with $\mathrm{rk}(M) \ge 7$. We prove standard commutator formulae and…
Kumjian and Pask introduced an aperiodicity condition for higher rank graphs. We present a detailed analysis of when this occurs in certain rank 2 graphs. When the algebra is aperiodic, we give another proof of the simplicity of…
We study central simple algebras with involution of the first kind that become hyperbolic over the function field of the conic associated to a given quaternion algebra $Q$. We classify these algebras in degree~4 and give an example of such…
Lie bialgebra contractions are introduced and classified. A non-degenerate coboundary bialgebra structure is implemented into all pseudo-orthogonal algebras $so(p,q)$ starting from the one corresponding to $so(N+1)$. It allows to introduce…
In this paper we study division algebras over the function fields of curves over $\Q_p$. The first and main tool is to view these fields as function fields over nonsingular $S$ which are projective of relative dimension 1 over the $p$ adic…
The concept of a quantum algebra is made easy through the investigation of the prototype algebras $u_{qp}(2)$, $su_q(2)$ and $u_{qp}(1,1)$. The latter quantum algebras are introduced as deformations of the corresponding Lie algebras~; this…
A new algebra, hitherto not encountered in the usual Lie algebraic varieties or supervarieties, is introduced. The paper explores the rich and novel structure of the algebra, and it compares it on the one hand with the Jordan-Lie…
In this paper, theory and construction of spinor representations of real Clifford algebras $\cl_{p,q}$ in minimal left ideals are reviewed. Connection with a general theory of semisimple rings is shown. The actual computations can be found…
This is a revised and corrected version of a preprint circulated in 1990 in which various non-self-adjoint limit algebras are classified. The principal invariant is the scaled $K_0$ group together with the algebraic order on the scale…
Milliet asks the following question: given two prime numbers $p\neq q$, is there a division algebra of characteristic $p$ which is of dp-rank $q^2$ and of dimension $q^2$ over its center? We answer in the affirmative. We also give an…
The "$10$-fold way" refers to the combined classification of the $3$ associative division algebras (of real, complex and quaternionic numbers) and of the $7$, ${\mathbb Z}_2$-graded, superdivision algebras (in a superdivision algebra each…
We prove that the alternative Clifford algebra of a nondegenerate ternary quadratic form is an octonion algebra over the ring of polynomials in one variable over the field of definition.
This work is a continuation of the description of some classes of nilpotent Zinbiel algebras. We focus on the study of Zinbiel algebras with restrictions to gradation and characteristic sequence. Namely, the classification of naturally…
In this article we analyze the quotients of the maximal compact subalgebras of the split real Kac-Moody algebras of the En series resulting from the generalized spin representations introduced in part 1. It turns out that these quotients…
The Clifford algebra over the three-dimensional real linear space includes its linear structure and its exterior algebra, the subspaces spanned by multivectors of the same degree determine a gradation of the Clifford algebra. Through these…
A real representation theory of real Clifford algebra has been studied in further detail, especially in connection with Fierz identities. As its application, we have constructed real octonion algebras as well as related octonionic triple…
The notions of left-right noncommutative Poisson algebra ($\NP^{lr}$-algebra) and left-right algebra with bracket $\AWB^{lr}$ are introduced. These algebras are special cases of $\NLP$-algebras and algebras with bracket $\AWB$,…
We study a class of noncommutative surfaces and their higher dimensional analogues which provide answers to several open questions in noncommutative projective geometry. Specifically, we give the first known graded algebras which are…
