Using completions of certain universal enveloping algebras, we provide a natural setting for families of defining relations for the principal subspaces of standard modules for untwisted affine Lie algebras. We also use the theory of vertex operator algebras and intertwining operators to construct exact sequences among principal subspaces of certain standard [Formula: see text]-modules, n ≥ 3. As a consequence, we obtain the multigraded dimensions of the principal subspaces W(k1Λ1 + k2Λ2) and W(kn-2Λn-2 + kn-1Λn-1). This generalizes earlier work by Calinescu on principal subspaces of standard [Formula: see text]-modules.

This paper presents new generators for the center of the universal enveloping algebra of the symplectic Lie algebra. These generators are expressed in terms of the column-permanent and it is easy to calculate their eigenvalues on irreducible representations. We can regard these generators as the counterpart of central elements of the universal enveloping algebra of the orthogonal Lie algebra given in terms of the column-determinant by Wachi. The earliest prototype of all these central elements is the Capelli determinants in the universal enveloping algebra of the general linear Lie algebra.

In this paper, we show that there are only seven graded Lie algebras of dimension 5 generated in degree 1 up to isomorphism. By parameterizing the relations of the universal enveloping algebras of three of those graded Lie algebras, we construct some new Artin–Schelter regular algebras of global dimension 5. We prove that those algebras are all strongly noetherian, Auslander regular and Cohen–Macaulay, and describe their Nakayama automorphisms.

We introduce a concept of unique factorization for elements in the context of Noetherian rings which are not necessarily commutative. We will call an element p of such a ring R prime if (i) pR = Rp, (ii) pR is a height-1 prime ideal of R, and (iii) R/pR is an integral domain. We define a Noetherian u.f.d. to be a Noetherian integral domain R such that every height-1 prime P of R is principal and R/P is a domain, or equivalently every non-zero element of R is of the form cq, where q is a product of prime elements of R and c has no prime factors. Examples include the Noetherian u.f.d.'s of commutative algebra and also the universal enveloping algebras of solvable Lie algebras. The latter class provides a rich supply of genuinely non-commutative examples.
