We present new examples of deformations of smash product algebras that arise from Hopf algebra actions on pairs of module algebras. These examples involve module algebras that are Koszul, in which case a PBW theorem we established…

In recent years PBW degenerations of Demazure modules and Schubert varieties were defined and studied in several papers. Various interesting properties (such as these PBW degenerations embedding naturally into the corresponding degenerate…

We prove in a very general framework several versions of the classical Poincar\'e-Birkhoff-Witt Theorem, which extend results from [BeGi, BrGa, CS, HvOZ, WW]. Applications and examples are discussed in the last part of the paper.

The paper [9] by Bocklandt, Schedler and Wemyss considers path algebras with relations given by the higher derivations of a superpotential, giving a condition for such an algebra to be Calabi-Yau. In this paper we extend these results,…

For ungraded quotients of an arbitrary $\mathbb{Z}$-graded ring, we define the general PBW property, that covers the classical PBW property and the $N$-type PBW property studied via the $N$-Koszulity by several authors ([BG1], BG2], [FV]).…

We investigate deformations of a skew group algebra that arise from a finite group acting on a polynomial ring. When the characteristic of the underlying field divides the order of the group, a new type of deformation emerges that does not…

The survey is devoted to associative $\Z_{\ge0}$-graded algebras presented by n generators and n(n-1)/2 quadratic relations and satisfying the so-called Poincare-Birkhoff-Witt condition (PBW-algebras). We consider examples of such algebras…

Let $K$ be a field, and $A=K[a_1,\ldots ,a_n]$ a finitely generated $K$-algebra with the PBW $K$-basis ${\cal B}=\{a_{1}^{\alpha_1}\cdots a_{n}^{\alpha_n}~|~(\alpha_1,\ldots ,\alpha_n)\in\mathbb{N}^n\}$. It is shown that if $L$ is a nonzero…

We propose a simple approach to formal deformations of associative algebras. It exploits the machinery of multiplicative coresolutions of an associative algebra A in the category of A-bimodules. Specifically, we show that certain…

For the algebraic group $SL_{l+1}(\mathbb{C})$ we describe a system of positive roots associated to conjugacy classes in its Weyl group. Using this we explicitly describe the algebra of regular functions on certain transverse slices to…

We show that there exists a constant K such that for any PI- algebra W and any nondegenerate G-grading on W where G is any group (possibly infinite), there exists an abelian subgroup U of G with $[G : U] \leq exp(W)^K$. A G-grading $W =…

The deformed $W$-algebra is a quantum deformation of the $W$-algebra ${\cal W}_\beta(\mathfrak{g})$ in conformal field theory. Using the free field construction, we obtain a closed set of quadratic relations of the $W$-currents of the…

If A is a cocommutative algebra with coproduct, then so is the smash product algebra of a symmetric algebra Sym(V) with A, where V is an A-module. Such smash product algebras, with A a group ring or a Lie algebra, have families of…

Let $H_{2n^2}$ be the Kac-Paljutkin type Hopf algebra of dimension $2n^2$, $A$ its graded Koszul Artin-Schelter regular $H_{2n^2}$-module algebra of dimension $2$, $A^!$ the Koszul dual of $A$, and $A^{\mathrm{op}}_c$ the braided-opposite…

This paper is based on the author's paper "Koszul duality in deformation quantization, I", with some improvements. In particular, an Introduction is added, and the convergence of the spectral sequence in Lemma 2.1 is rigorously proven. Some…

Let $F$ be an algebraically closed field. We show that if a quantum formal deformation $A$ of a commutative domain $A_0$ over $F$ is a PI algebra, then $A$ is commutative if ${\rm char}(F)=0$, and has PI degree a power of $p$ if ${\rm…

This paper discusses the notion of a deformation quantization for an arbitrary polynomial Poisson algebra A. We examine the Hochschild cohomology group H^3(A) and find that if a deformation of A exists it can be given by bidifferential…

We generalize the theory of Koszul complexes and Koszul algebras (in particular, Koszul duality between symmetric and exterior algebras) to symmetric tensor categories. In characteristic $p\ge 5$, this theory exhibits peculiar effects, not…

The aim of the paper is twofold. First, we introduce analogs of (partial) derivatives on certain Noncommutative algebras, including some enveloping algebras and their "braided counterparts", namely, the so-called modified Reflection…

We investigate formal deformations of certain classes of nonassociative algebras including classes of K[{\Sigma}3]-associative algebras, Lie-admissible algebras and anti-associative algebras. In a process which is similar to Poisson algebra…
