The central polynomials for the finite dimensional Grassmann algebras
In this note we describe the central polynomials for the finite dimensional unitary Grassmann algebras Gk over an infinite field F of characteristic ≠2. We exhibit a set of generators of C(Gk), the T-space of the central polynomials of Gk in a free associative F-algebra
Ideals of identities of representations of nilpotent Lie algebras
Let L be a Lie algebra, nilpotent of class 2, over an infinite field It, and suppose that the centre C of L is one dimensional; such Lie algebras are called Heisenberg algebras. Let rho:L --> hom(K) V be a finite dimensional representation of the Heisenberg algebra L such that rho(C) contains non-singular linear transformations of V, and denote I(rho) the ideal of identities for the representation rho. We prove that the ideals of identities of representations containing I(rho) and generated by multilinear polynomials satisfy the ACC. Let sl(2)(K) be the Lie algebra of the traceless 2 x 2 matrices over K, and suppose the characteristic of K equals 2. As a corollary we obtain that the ideals of identities of representations of Lie algebras containing that of the regular representation of sl(2)(K) and generated by multilinear polynomials, are finitely based. In addition we show that one cannot simply dispense with the condition of multilinearity. Namely, we show that the ACC is violated for the ideals of representations of Lie algebras lover an infinite field of characteristic 2) that contain the identities of the regular representation of sl(2)(K).2873095311
Finitely based ideals of weak polynomial identities
Let K be a field, char K not equal 2, and let V-k be a k-dimensional vector space over K equipped with a nondegenerate symmetric bilinear form. Denote C-k the Clifford algebra of V-k. We study the polynomial identities for the pair (C-k, V-k). A basis of the identities for this pair is found. It is proved that they are consequences of the single identity [x(2), y] = 0 when k = infinity. It is shown that when k < infinity the identities for (C-k, V-k) follow from [x(2), y] = 0 and Wk+1 = 0 where Wk+1 is an analog of the standard polynomial St(k+1). Denote M-2(K) the matrix algebra of order two over K, and let sl(2)(K) be the Lie algebra of all traceless 2 x 2 matrices over K. As an application, new proof of the fact that the identity [x(2), y] = 0 is a basis of the weak Lie identities for the pair (M-2(K),sl(2)(K)) is given.26103335335
Basis Of The Identities Of The Matrix Algebra Of Order Two Over A Field Of Characteristic P ≠ 2
In this paper we prove that the polynomial identities of the matrix algebra of order 2 over an infinite field of characteristic p≠2 admit a finite basis. We exhibit a finite basis consisting of four identities, and in "almost" all cases for p we describe a minimal basis consisting of two identities. The only possibilities for p where we do not exhibit minimal bases of these identities are p=3 and p=5. We show that when p=3 one needs at least three identities, and we conjecture a minimal basis in this case. In the course of the proof we construct an explicit basis of the vector space of the central commutator polynomials modulo the ideal of the identities of the matrix algebra of order two. © 2001 Academic Press.2411410434Asparouhov, T., Drensky, V., Koev, P., Tsiganchev, D., Generic 2 × 2 matrices in positive characteristic (2000) J.

Graded polynomial identities for the Lie algebra sl(2)(K)
Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq)Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)The Lie algebra sl(2)( K) over a field K has a natural grading by Z(2), the cyclic group of order 2. We describe the graded polynomial identities for this grading when the base. eld is infinite and of characteristic different from 2. We exhibit a basis of these identities that consists of one polynomial. In order to obtain this basis we employ methods and results from Invariant theory. As a by-product we obtain finite bases of the graded identities for sl(2)( K) graded by other groups such as Z(2) x Z(2), and by the integers Z.185825836Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq)Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq)Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)CNPq [302655/2005-0]FAPESP [2004/13766-2, 2005/60337-2
Identities and isomorphisms of graded simple algebras
Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq)Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)Let G be an arbitrary abelian group and let A and B be two finite dimensional G-graded simple algebras over an algebraically closed field F such that the orders of all finite subgroups of G are invertible in F. We prove that A and B are isomorphic if and only if they satisfy the same G-graded identities. We also describe all isomorphism classes of finite dimensional G-graded simple algebras.

Gk Dimension Of The Relatively Free Algebra For Sl2
Let sl2(K) be the Lie algebra of the 2 × 2 traceless matrices over an infinite field K of characteristic different from 2, denote by Rm = Rm(sl2(K)) the relatively free (also called universal) algebra of rankm in the variety of Lie algebras generated by sl2(K). In this paper we compute the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension of the Lie algebra Rm(sl2(K)). It turns out that whenever m ≥ 2 one has GK dim Rm = 3(m − 1). In order to compute it we use the explicit form of the Hilbert series of Rm described by Drensky. This result is new for m > 2; the case m = 2 was dealt with by Bahturin in 1979.1754543553Bahturin, Y.A., Two-variable identities in the Lie Algebra sl(2, k) (Russian). Trudy Sem.

Polynomial identities for the Jordan algebra of upper triangular matrices of order 2
AbstractThe associative algebras UTn(K) of the upper triangular matrices of order n play an important role in PI theory. Recently it was suggested that the Jordan algebra UJ2(K) obtained by UT2(K) has an extremal behaviour with respect to its codimension growth. In this paper we study the polynomial identities of UJ2(K). We describe a basis of the identities of UJ2(K) when the field K is infinite and of characteristic different from 2 and from 3. Moreover we give a description of all possible gradings on UJ2(K) by the cyclic group Z2 of order 2, and in each of the three gradings we find bases of the corresponding graded identities. Note that in the graded case we need only an infinite field K, charK≠2
A Basis For The Graded Identities Of The Matrix Algebra Of Order Two Over A Finite Field Of Characteristics P ≠ 2
Let K be a finite field of characteristic p > 2, and let M2(K) be the matrix algebra of order two over K. We describe up to a graded isomorphism the 2-gradings of M2(K). It turns out that there are only two nonisomorphic nontrivial such gradings. Furthermore, we exhibit finite bases of the graded polynomial identities for each one of these two gradings. One can distinguish these two gradings by means of the graded polynomial identities they satisfy. © 2002 Elsevier Science (USA).84597609de Concini, C., Procesi, C., A characteristic free approach to invariant theory (1976) Adv. in Math., 21, pp. 330-354Di Vincenzo, O.M., On the graded identities of M1,1 (E) (1992) Israel J.
