Abstract Given a symmetric operad $\mathcal{P}$ and a $\mathcal{P}$-algebra $V$, the associative universal enveloping algebra ${\textsf{U}_{\mathcal{P}}}$ is an associative algebra whose category of modules is isomorphic to the abelian category of $V$-modules. We study the notion of PBW property for universal enveloping algebras over an operad. In case $\mathcal{P}$ is Koszul a criterion for the PBW property is found. A necessary condition on the Hilbert series for $\mathcal{P}$ is discovered. Moreover, given any symmetric operad $\mathcal{P}$, together with a Gröbner basis $G$, a condition is given in terms of the structure of the underlying trees associated with leading monomials of $G$, sufficient for the PBW property to hold. Examples are provided.

We describe a type of Lie colour algebra, which we call generic, whose universal enveloping algebra is a domain with finite global dimension. Moreover, it is an iterated Ore extension. We provide an application and show Gröbner basis methods can be used to study universal enveloping algebras of factors of generic Lie colour algebras.

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.

AbstractWe continue our investigation of the general notion of universal enveloping algebra introduced in [A. Ardizzoni, A Milnor–Moore type theorem for primitively generated braided Bialgebras, J. Algebra 327(1) (2011), 337–365]. Namely, we study a universal enveloping algebra when it is of Poincaré–Birkhoff–Witt (PBW) type, meaning that a suitable PBW-type theorem holds. We discuss the problem of finding a basis for a universal enveloping algebra of PBW type: as an application, we recover the PBW basis both of an ordinary universal enveloping algebra and of a restricted enveloping algebra. We prove that a universal enveloping algebra is of PBW type if and only if it is cosymmetric. We characterise braided bialgebra liftings of Nichols algebras as universal enveloping algebras of PBW type.

The concept of the universal enveloping algebra of a (not necessarily associative) algebra X is basic to the study of the representations of X, because there is a one-to-one correspondence between the representations of X and . If one is only interested in studying a certain class of the representations of X, the thought occurs that there may exist a more suitable universal object.

Recently, the first author and, independently, A. V. Jategaonkar have shown that every factor ring of U(g), the universal enveloping algebra of a finite dimensional complex Lie algebra, has a primary decomposition if g is solvable and almost algebraic. On the other hand, a suitable factor ring of U(SL(2, ℂ) fails to have a primary decomposition (1).

In this work we are concerned with the universal associative envelope of a finite-dimensional simple symplectic anti-Jordan triple system (AJTS). We prove that if 𝕋 is a triple system as above, then there exists an associative algebra U(𝕋) and an injective homomorphism ε : 𝕋 → U(𝕋), where U(𝕋) is an AJTS under the triple product defined by (a,b,c) = abc - cba. Moreover, U(𝕋) is a universal object with respect to such homomorphisms. We explicitly determine the PBW-basis of U(𝕋), the center Z(U(𝕋)) and the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension of U(𝕋).

Lie color algebras are generalizations of Lie superalgebras and graded Lie algebras. The properties of a Lie color algebra can often be related directly to the ring structure of its universal enveloping algebra. We study the effects of torsion elements and torsion subspaces. Let [Formula: see text] denote a Lie color algebra. If [Formula: see text] is homogeneous and torsion then x2 = 0 in [Formula: see text]. If no homogeneous element of [Formula: see text] is torsion, then [Formula: see text] so [Formula: see text] is semiprime. In this case we can give a test which uses Gröbner basis methods to determine when [Formula: see text] is a domain. This is applied in an example to show [Formula: see text] may be a domain even if [Formula: see text] contains torsion elements and torsion subspaces.

We study the interaction between the block decompositions of reduced enveloping algebras in positive characteristic, the Poincaré-Birkhoff-Witt (PBW) filtration, and the nilpotent cone. We provide two natural versions of the PBW filtration on the block subalgebra [Formula: see text] of the restricted universal enveloping algebra [Formula: see text] and show these are dual to each other. We also consider a shifted PBW filtration for which we relate the associated graded algebra to the algebra of functions on the Frobenius neighborhood of [Formula: see text] in the nilpotent cone and the coinvariants algebra corresponding to [Formula: see text]. In the case of [Formula: see text] in characteristic [Formula: see text] we determine the associated graded algebras of these filtrations on block subalgebras of [Formula: see text]. We also apply this to determine the structure of the adjoint representation of [Formula: see text].

AbstractThe universal enveloping algebra, U(𝔤), of a Lie algebra 𝔤 supports some norms and seminorms that have arisen naturally in the context of heat kernel analysis on Lie groups. These norms and seminorms are investigated here from an algebraic viewpoint. It is shown that the norms corresponding to heat kernels on the associated Lie groups decompose as product norms under the natural isomorphism . The seminorms corresponding to Green's functions are examined at a purely Lie algebra level for sl (2, ℂ). It is also shown that the algebraic dual space U′ is spanned by its finite rank elements if and only if 𝔤 is nilpotent.

International audience Noncommutative algebras, defined by the generators and relations, are considered. The definition and main results connected with the Gröbner basis, Hilbert series and Anick's resolution are formulated. Most attention is paid to universal enveloping algebras. Four main examples illustrate the main concepts and ideas. Algorithmic problems arising in the calculation of the Hilbert series are investigated. The existence of finite state automata, defining thebehaviour of the Hilbert series, is discussed. The extensions of the BERGMAN package for IBM PC compatible computers are described. A table is provided permitting a comparison of the effectiveness of the calculations in BERGMAN with the other systems.
