Central Automorphisms

Let [Formula: see text] be the free nilpotent Lie algebra of finite rank [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] and nilpotency class [Formula: see text] over a field of characteristic zero. We give a characterization of central automorphisms of [Formula: see text] and we find sufficient conditions for an automorphism of [Formula: see text] to be a central automorphism.

Ascending Chain Condition

In [2], we considered a class of Lie algebras generalizing the classical simple Lie algebras. Using a field Φ of characteristic zero and a square matrix (Aij) of integers with the properties (1) Aii = 2, (2) Aij ≦ 0 if i ≠ j, (3) Aij = 0 if and only if Ajt = 0, and (4) is symmetric for some appropriate non-zero rational a Lie algebra E = E((Aij)) over Φ can be constructed, together with the usual accoutrements: a root system, invariant bilinear form, and Weyl group.For indecomposable (A ij), E is simple except when (Aij) is singular and removal of any row and corresponding column of (Aij) leaves a Cartan matrix. The non-simple Es, Euclidean Lie algebras, were our object of study in [3] as well as in the present paper. They are infinite-dimensional, have ascending chain condition on ideals, and proper ideals are of finite codimension.

AbstractLet R be a commutative integral unital domain and L a free noncommutative Lie algebra over R. In this article we show that the ring R and its action on L are 0-interpretable in L, viewed as a ring with the standard ring language $+ , \cdot ,0$. Furthermore, if R has characteristic zero then we prove that the elementary theory $Th\left( L \right)$ of L in the standard ring language is undecidable. To do so we show that the arithmetic ${\Bbb N} = \langle {\Bbb N}, + , \cdot ,0\rangle $ is 0-interpretable in L. This implies that the theory of $Th\left( L \right)$ has the independence property. These results answer some old questions on model theory of free Lie algebras.

Highest Weight Categories

AbstractQuasi-hereditary algebras were introduced by Cline-Parshall-Scott (see [CPS] or [PS]) to deal with highest weight categories which occur in the study of semi-simple complex Lie algebras and algebraic groups. In fact, the quasi-hereditary algebras which appear in these applications enjoy a number of additional properties. The objective of this brief note is to describe a class of lean quasi-hereditary algebras [ADL] which possess such typical characteristics. A study of these questions originated in collaboration with C. M. Ringel (see [DR]).

The grading is by integers modulo 2 and we refer to it as 2-grading. For the definition of 2-graded Lie algebras L and their properties we refer the reader to the papers [1; 2; 3]. All algebras considered here are finite-dimensional over a field F of characteristic zero.

Generalized Cartan Matrix

Our aim in this paper is to study a certain class of Lie algebras which arose naturally in (4). In (4), we showed that beginning with an indecomposable symmetrizable generalized Cartan matrix (A ij) and a field Φ of characteristic zero, we could construct a Lie algebra E((A ij)) over Φ patterned on the finite-dimensional split simple Lie algebras. We were able to show that E((A ij)) is simple providing that (A ij) does not fall in the list given in (4, Table). We did not prove the converse, however.The diagrams of the table of (4) appear in Table 2. Call the matrices that they represent Euclidean matrices and their corresponding algebras Euclidean Lie algebras. Our first objective is to show that Euclidean Lie algebras are not simple.

Linear Differential

We extend and apply the Galois theory of linear differential equations equipped with the action of an endomorphism. The Galois groups in this Galois theory are difference algebraic groups, and we use structure theorems for these groups to characterize the possible difference algebraic relations among solutions of linear differential equations. This yields tools to show that certain special functions are difference transcendent. One of our main results is a characterization of discrete integrability of linear differential equations with almost simple usual Galois group, based on a structure theorem for the Zariski dense difference algebraic subgroups of almost simple algebraic groups, which is a schematic version, in characteristic zero, of a result due to Z. Chatzidakis, E. Hrushovski, and Y. Peterzil.
