Related papers: A remark on the Dixmier Conjecture
In this paper, we study the algebra automorphisms and isomorphisms for a family of "symmetric" multiparameter quantized Weyl algebras $\A$ and some related algebras in the generic case. First, we compute the Nakayama automorphism for $\A$…
We prove that the Weyl algebra over $\mathbb{C}$ cannot be a fixed ring of any domain under a nontrivial action of a finite group by algebra automorphisms, thus settling a 30-year old problem. In fact, we prove the following much more…
Non-commutative Poisson algebras are the algebras having an associative algebra structure and a Lie algebra structure together with the Leibniz law. Let $P$ be a non-commutative Poisson algebra over some algebraically closed field of…
We continue with the investigation began in "The Dixmier conjecture and the shape of possible counterexamples". In that paper we introduced the notion of an irreducible pair (P,Q) as the image of the pair (X,Y) of the canonical generators…
Let k be a field of characteristic zero. Let phi be a k-endomorphism of the polynomial algebra k[x_1,...,x_n]. It is known that phi is an automorphism if and only if it maps irreducible polynomials to irreducible polynomials. In this paper…
An Ore extension over a polynomial algebra $\mathbb{F}[x]$ is either a quantum plane, a quantum Weyl algebra, or an infinite-dimensional unital associative algebra $\mathsf{A}_h$ generated by elements $x,y$, which satisfy $yx-xy = h$, where…
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero, and let $f: k[x,y] \to k[x,y]$, $f: (x,y) \mapsto (p,q)$, be a $k$-algebra endomorphism having an invertible Jacobian. Write $p=a_ny^n+\cdots+a_1y+a_0$, where $n=deg_y(p) \in \mathbb{N}$, $a_i \in…
The Veronese subalgebra $A_0$ of degree $d\geq 2$ of the polynomial algebra $A=K[x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n]$ over a field $K$ in the variables $x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n$ is the subalgebra of $A$ generated by all monomials of degree $d$ and the Veronese…
We describe the structure of the automorphism groups of algebras Morita equivalent to the first Weyl algebra $ A_1 $. In particular, we give a geometric presentation for these groups in terms of amalgamated products, using the Bass-Serre…
Let $A_{1} := k [t, \partial ]$ be the first algebra over a field $k$ of characteristic zero. One can associate to each right ideal $I$ of $A_1$ its Stafford subgroup, which is a subgroup of $\Aut_k(A_1)$, the automorphism group of the ring…
Using the author's inversion formula for automorphisms of the Weyl algebras with polynomial coefficients and the bound on its degree a slightly shorter (algebraic) proof is given of the result of A. Belov-Kanel and M. Kontsevich that the…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety defined on a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. On $X$ there is a special morphism $Fr_X$, which raises coordinates to exponent $q$: $t\mapsto t^q$. The two main results in this paper are: Result 1: If…
We prove that every monomorphism of the Lie algebra $\ggu_n$ of unitriangular derivations of the polynomial algebra $P_n=K[x_1,..., x_n]$ is an automorphism.
An Ore extension over a polynomial algebra F[x] is either a quantum plane, a quantum Weyl algebra, or an infinite-dimensional unital associative algebra A_h generated by elements x,y, which satisfy yx-xy = h, where h is in F[x]. When h is…
The group of automorphisms of the first Weyl algebra acts on commuting ordinary differential operators with polynomial coefficient. In this paper we prove that for fixed generic spectral curve of genus two the set of orbits is infinite.
Given a grading $\Gamma: A=\oplus_{g\in G}A_g$ on a nonassociative algebra $A$ by an abelian group $G$, we have two subgroups of the group of automorphisms of $A$: the automorphisms that stabilize each homogeneous component $A_g$ (as a…
Let $K$ be an {\em arbitrary} field of characteristic $p>0$, let $A$ be one of the following algebras: $P_n:= K[x_1, ..., x_n]$ is a polynomial algebra, $\CD (P_n)$ is the ring of differential operators on $P_n$, $\CD (P_n)\t P_m$, the…
We prove that the group of automorphisms of the Lie algebra $\Der_K (P_n)$ of derivations of a polynomial algebra $P_n=K[x_1,..., x_n]$ over a field of characteristic zero is canonically isomorphic to the the group of automorphisms of the…
Let P,Q be elements of the Weyl algebra W. We prove that if [Q,P]=1, then the centralizer of P is the polynomial algebra k[P].
