We begin a study of torsion theories for representations of an important class of associative algebras over a field which includes all finite W-algebras of type A, in particular the universal enveloping algebra of gl(n) (or sl(n)) for all…

We investigate commutator operations on compatible uniformities of an algebra. We present a commutator operation for compatible uniformities of an algebra in a congruence-modular variety which extends the commutator on congruences, and…

We determine the product structure on Hochschild cohomology of commutative algebras in low degrees, obtaining the answer in all degrees for complete intersection algebras. As applications, we consider cyclic extension algebras as well as…

A ring is called a commutator ring if every element is a sum of additive commutators. In this paper we give examples of such rings. In particular, we show that given any ring R, a right R-module N, and a set X, End_R(\bigoplus_X N) and…

The author has previously associated to each commutative ring with unit $\Bbbk$ and \'etale groupoid $\mathscr G$ with locally compact, Hausdorff, totally disconnected unit space a $\Bbbk$-algebra $\Bbbk\mathscr G$. The algebra…

In this paper, we define an invariant, which we believe should be the substitute for total K-theory in the case when there is one distinguished ideal. Moreover, some diagrams relating the new groups to the ordinary K-groups with…

Classical spectral theory gives a complete description of a single normal operator, but it fails for noncommuting operators, where no canonical joint spectrum or simultaneous diagonalization exists. Existing approaches provide only partial…

Fix a commutative ring $\mathbf{k}$, two elements $\beta,\alpha\in\mathbf{k}$ and a positive integer $n$. Let $\mathcal{X}$ be the polynomial ring over $\mathbf{k}$ in the $n(n-1)/2$ indeterminates $x_{i,j}$ for all $1\leq i<j\leq n$.…

We show that in any symmetric monoidal category, if a weight for colimits is absolute, then the resulting colimit of any diagram of dualizable objects is again dualizable. Moreover, in this case, if an endomorphism of the colimit is induced…

Cumulants are a notion that comes from the classical probability theory, they are an alternative to a notion of moments. We adapt the probabilistic concept of cumulants to the setup of a linear space equipped with two multiplication…

This article discusses the representation theory of noncommutative algebras reality-based algebras with positive degree map over their field of definition. When the standard basis contains exactly two nonreal elements, the main result…

We extend the classical concept of deformation of an associative algebra, as introduced by Gerstenhaber, by using monoidal linear categories and cocommutative coalgebras as foundational tools. To achieve this goal, we associate to each…

By using the notion of a rigid R-matrix in a monoidal category and the Reshetikhin--Turaev functor on the category of tangles, we review the definition of the associated invariant of long knots. In the framework of the monoidal categories…

The universal enveloping algebra of any simple Lie algebra g contains a family of commutative subalgebras, called the quantum shift of argument subalgebras math.RT/0606380, math.QA/0612798. We prove that generically their action on…

We propose a generalization of a conjecture of D. Quillen, on the vanishing of Andr\'e-Quillen homology, to simplicial commutative rings. This conjecture characterizes a notion of local complete intersection, extended to the simplicial…

There is a commutative algebra of differential-difference operators, with two parameters, associated to any dihedral group with an even number of reflections. The intertwining operator relates this algebra to the algebra of partial…

This is an introduction to algebraic combinatorics, written for a quarter-long graduate course. It starts with a rigorous introduction to formal power series with some combinatorial applications, then discusses integer partitions (proving…

We consider algebras in a modular tensor category C. If the trace pairing of an algebra A in C is non-degenerate we associate to A a commutative algebra Z(A), called the full centre, in a doubled version of the category C. We prove that two…

For any additive functor from modules (or, more generally, from an abelian category with enough projectives or injectives), we construct long sequences tying up together the derived functors, the satellites, and the stabilizations of the…

Given a variety of universal algebras. A method is suggested for describing automorphisms of a category of free algebras of this variety. Applying this general method all automorphisms of such categories are found in two cases: 1) for the…
