Abstract

The nn-dimensional quantum torus Oq((F×)n)\mathcal O_{\mathbf q}((F^\times)^n) is defined as the associative FF-algebra generated by x1,,xnx_1, \cdots, x_n together with their inverses satisfying the relations xixj=qijxjxix_ix_j = q_{ij}x_jx_i, where q=(qij)\mathbf q = (q_{ij}). We show that the modules that are finitely generated over certain commutative sub-algebras B\mathscr B are B\mathscr B-torsion-free and have finite length. We determine the Gelfand-Kirillov dimensions of simple modules in the case when \Kdim(Oq((F×)n))=n1, \Kdim(\mathcal O_{\mathbf q}((F^\times)^n)) = n - 1, where \Kdim\Kdim stands for the Krull dimension. In this case if MM is a simple Oq((F×)n)\mathcal O_{\mathbf q}((F^\times)^n)-module then \gk(M)=1 \gk(M) = 1 or \gk(M)\gk(Oq((F×)n))\gk(Z(Oq((F×)n)))1, \gk(M) \ge \gk(\mathcal O_{\mathbf q}((F^\times)^n)) - \gk(\mathcal Z(\mathcal O_{\mathbf q}((F^\times)^n))) - 1, where Z(C)\mathcal Z(C) stands for the center of an algebra CC. We also show that there always exists a simple F\sAF \s A-module satisfying the above inequality.
