Free actions on semiprime rings

Muhammad Anwar Chaudhry, Mohammad S. Samman (2008)

Mathematica Bohemica

We identify some situations where mappings related to left centralizers, derivations and generalized ( α , β ) -derivations are free actions on semiprime rings. We show that for a left centralizer, or a derivation T , of a semiprime ring R the mapping ψ R R defined by ψ ( x ) = T ( x ) x - x T ( x ) for all x R is a free action. We also show that for a generalized ( α , β ) -derivation F of a semiprime ring R , with associated ( α , β ) -derivation d , a dependent element a of F is also a dependent element of α + d . Furthermore, we prove that for a centralizer f and...

Generalized E-algebras via λ-calculus I

Rüdiger Göbel, Saharon Shelah (2006)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

An R-algebra A is called an E(R)-algebra if the canonical homomorphism from A to the endomorphism algebra E n d R A of the R-module R A , taking any a ∈ A to the right multiplication a r E n d R A by a, is an isomorphism of algebras. In this case R A is called an E(R)-module. There is a proper class of examples constructed in [4]. E(R)-algebras arise naturally in various topics of algebra. So it is not surprising that they were investigated thoroughly in the last decades; see [3, 5, 7, 8, 10, 13, 14, 15, 18, 19]. Despite...

Hochschild homology and cohomology of generalized Weyl algebras

Marco A. Farinati, Andrea L. Solotar, Mariano Suárez-Álvarez (2003)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We compute Hochschild homology and cohomology of a class of generalized Weyl algebras, introduced by V. V. Bavula in St. Petersbourg Math. Journal, 4 (1) (1999), 71-90. Examples of such algebras are the n-th Weyl algebras, 𝒰 ( 𝔰 𝔩 2 ) , primitive quotients of 𝒰 ( 𝔰 𝔩 2 ) , and subalgebras of invariants of these algebras under finite cyclic groups of automorphisms. We answer a question of Bavula–Jordan (Trans. A.M.S., 353 (2) (2001), 769-794) concerning the generators of the group of automorphisms of a generalized Weyl...
