GLOBALIZATION OF TWISTED PARTIAL ACTIONS

Let A be a unital ring which is a product of possibly infinitely many indecomposable rings. We establish a criteria for the existence of a globalization for a given twisted partial action of a group on A. If the globalization exists, it is unique up to a certain equivalence relation and, moreover, the crossed product corresponding to the twisted partial action is Morita equivalent to that corresponding to its globalization. For arbitrary unital rings the globalization problem is reduced to an extendibility property of the multipliers involved in the twisted partial action.

AUSLANDER GENERATORS OF ITERATED TILTED ALGEBRAS

Let A be an iterated tilted algebra. We will construct an Auslander generator M in order to show that the representation dimension of A is three in case A is representation infinite.

The structure of quantum Lie algebras for the classical series, B-l, C-l and D-l

The structure constants of quantum Lie algebras depend on a quantum deformation parameter q and they reduce to the classical structure constants of a Lie algebra at q = 1. We explain the relationship between the structure constants of quantum Lie algebras and quantum Clebsch-Gordan coefficients for adjoint x adjoint --> adjoint We present a practical method for the determination of these quantum Clebsch-Gordan coefficients and are thus able to give explicit expressions for the structure constants of the quantum Lie algebras associated to the classical Lie algebras B-l, C-l and D-l. In the quantum case the structure constants of the Cartan subalgebra are non-zero and we observe that they are determined in terms of the simple quantum roots. We introduce an invariant Killing form on the quantum Lie algebras and find that it takes values which are simple q-deformations of the classical ones.

Exactly solvable quantum spin ladders associated with the orthogonal and symplectic Lie algebras

We extend the results of spin ladder models associated with the Lie algebras su(2(n)) to the case of the orthogonal and symplectic algebras o(2(n)), sp(2(n)) where n is the number of legs for the system. Two classes of models are found whose symmetry, either orthogonal or symplectic, has an explicit n dependence. Integrability of these models is shown for an arbitrary coupling of XX-type rung interactions and applied magnetic field term.

Integrable generalized spin ladder models based on the SU(1|3) and SU(3|1) algebras

We present two integrable spin ladder models which possess a general free parameter besides the rung coupling J. The models are exactly solvable by means of the Bethe ansatz method and we present the Bethe ansatz equations. We analyze the elementary excitations of the models which reveal the existence of a gap for both models that depends on the free parameter. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics.

On universal central extensions of Hom-Leibniz algebras

In the category of Hom-Leibniz algebras we introduce the notion of Hom-corepresentation as adequate coefficients to construct the chain complex from which we compute the Leibniz homology of Hom-Leibniz algebras. We study universal central extensions of Hom-Leibniz algebras and generalize some classical results, nevertheless it is necessary to introduce new notions of α-central extension, universal α-central extension and α-perfect Hom-Leibniz algebra due to the fact that the composition of two central extensions of Hom-Leibniz algebras is not central. We also provide the recognition criteria for these kind of universal central extensions. We prove that an α-perfect Hom-Lie algebra admits a universal α-central extension in the categories of Hom-Lie and Hom-Leibniz algebras and we obtain the relationships between both of them. In case α = Id we recover the corresponding results on universal central extensions of Leibniz algebras.

Algebras de Lie de tipo H

Es mi intención centrar mis investigaciones en los próximos años en las álgebras de Lie tipo H. Es nuestro objetivo encontrar nuevas familias de álgebras regulares no de tipo H y verificar la existencia o no de irreducibles cumpliendo de estas propiedades. En particular es interesante plantear su cuantización, es decir encontrar estructuras de álgebras de Hopf que sean deformaciones del álgebra envolvente correspondiente al álgebra de Lie en estudio. En particular estudiaremos si existen cuantizaciones quasitriangulares lo que nos llevaría soluciones de la ecuación de Yang-Baxter cuántica. Hasta ahora hemos logrado la cuantización en ciertos casos particulares. Para comprender cómo deben ser hechas las cuantizaciones en forma más general es necesario realizar un estudio sistemático de las estructuras de la biálgebra de las álgebras de Lie de tipo H. En particular se tratarán de detectar estructuras de biálgebra quasitriangulares y por consiguientes soluciones de la ecuación de Yang-Baxter clásica. Es un resultado conocido que las funciones de theta se pueden expresar como coeficiente matricial de la representación de Stone-Von Neumann. De los teoremas de Stone-Von Neumann para álgebras de tipo H surgen entonces funciones que serían una generalización de las funciones theta; es nuestro objetivo encontrar propiedades de estas funciones que puedan ser de interés.

Estructura, representaciones y cohomología de álgebras de Lie nilpotents. Structure, represntations and cohomology of nilpotent Lie algebras.

El objetivo de este proyecto es obtener resultados de calidad en el área de las representaciones y cohomología de álgebras de Lie complejas nilpotentes de dimensión finita. Los objetivos específicos son (1) Demostrar que la familia de nilradicales parabólicos de las subálgebras de Lie semisimples satisfacen la conjetura del rango toral. (2) Calcular explícitamente la cohomología, aunque sea en grados bajos, de las álgebras de Lie 3-pasos nilpotentes libres y las álgebras $\mathfrak{gl}(2,A_{k})$ donde $A_{k}$ es el álgebra de quiver truncada en $k$ asociada a un quiver cíclico de $k$ flechas (y $k$ vértices). (3) Determinar explícitamente qué diagramas de Young aparecen en la cohomología, calculada por Kostant, de los nilradicales parabólicos de las subálgebras de Lie semisimples. (4) Mejorar las actuales cotas para las representaciones fieles de dimensión mínima de álgebras de Lie 3-pasos nilpotentes.

The Cuntz semigroup, the Elliott conjecture, and dimension functions on C*-Algebras

We prove that the Cuntz semigroup is recovered functorially from the Elliott invariant for a large class of C¤-algebras. In particular, our results apply to the largest class of simple C¤-algebras for which K-theoretic classification can be hoped for. This work has three significant consequences. First, it provides new conceptual insight into Elliott's classification program, proving that the usual form of the Elliott conjecture is equivalent, among Z-stable algebras, to a conjecture which is in general substantially weaker and for which there are no known counterexamples. Second and third, it resolves, for the class of algebras above, two conjectures of Blackadar and Handelman concerning the basic structure of dimension functions on C¤-algebras. We also prove in passing that the Kuntz-Pedersen semigroup is recovered functorially from the Elliott invariant for all simple unital C¤-algebras of interest.

Real rank zero algebras have the corona factorization property

The purpose of this short note is to prove that a stable separable C*-algebra with real rank zero has the so-called corona factorization property, that is, all the full multiplier projections are properly in finite. Enroute to our result, we consider conditions under which a real rank zero C*-algebra admits an injection of the compact operators (a question already considered in [21]).

Chain conditions for Leavitt path algebras

In this paper, results known about the artinian and noetherian conditions for the Leavitt path algebras of graphs with finitely many vertices are extended to all row-finite graphs. In our first main result, necessary and sufficient conditions on a row-finite graph E are given so that the corresponding (not necessarily unital) Leavitt path K-algebra L(E) is semisimple. These are precisely the algebras L(E)for which every corner is left (equivalently, right)artinian. They are also precisely the algebras L(E) for which every finitely generated left (equivalently, right) L(E)-module is artinian. In our second main result, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for every corner of L(E) to be left (equivalently, right) noetherian. They also turn out to be precisely those algebras L(E) for which every finitely generated left(equivalently, right) L(E)-module is noetherian. In both situations, isomorphisms between these algebras and appropriate direct sums of matrix rings over K or K[x, x−1] are provided. Likewise, in both situations, equivalent graph theoretic conditions on E are presented.

A relative double commutant theorem for hereditary sub-C*-algebras

We prove a double commutant theorem for hereditary subalgebras of a large class of C*-algebras, partially resolving a problem posed by Pedersen[8]. Double commutant theorems originated with von Neumann, whose seminal result evolved into an entire field now called von Neumann algebra theory. Voiculescu proved a C*-algebraic double commutant theorem for separable subalgebras of the Calkin algebra. We prove a similar result for hereditary subalgebras which holds for arbitrary corona C*-algebras. (It is not clear how generally Voiculescu's double commutant theorem holds.)

Strongly non-degenerate Lie algebras

Let A be a semiprime 2 and 3-torsion free non-commutative associative algebra. We show that the Lie algebra Der(A) of(associative) derivations of A is strongly non-degenerate, which is a strong form of semiprimeness for Lie algebras, under some additional restrictions on the center of A. This result follows from a description of the quadratic annihilator of a general Lie algebra inside appropriate Lie overalgebras. Similar results are obtained for an associative algebra A with involution and the Lie algebra SDer(A) of involution preserving derivations of A
