The abelianization of hypercyclic groups

B. Wehrfritz (2007)

Open Mathematics

Let G be a hypercyclic group. The most substantial results of this paper are the following. a) If G/G′ is 2-divisible, then G is 2-divisible. b) If G/G′ is a 2′-group, then G is a 2′-group. c) If G/G′ is divisible by finite-of-odd-order, then G/V is divisible by finite-of-odd-order, where V is the intersection of the lower central series (continued transfinitely) of O 2′ (G).

The abelianization of the Johnson kernel

Alexandru Dimca, Richard Hain, Stefan Papadima (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We prove that the first complex homology of the Johnson subgroup of the Torelli group T g is a non-trivial, unipotent T g -module for all g 4 and give an explicit presentation of it as a S y m . H 1 ( T g , C ) -module when g 6 . We do this by proving that, for a finitely generated group G satisfying an assumption close to formality, the triviality of the restricted characteristic variety implies that the first homology of its Johnson kernel is a nilpotent module over the corresponding Laurent polynomial ring, isomorphic to the...

The adjoint representation of group algebras and enveloping algebras.

Donald S. Passman (1992)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

In this paper we study the Hopf adjoint action of group algebras and enveloping algebras. We are particularly concerned with determining when these representations are faithful. Delta methods allow us to reduce the problem to certain better behaved subalgebras. Nevertheless, the problem remains open in the finite group and finite-dimensional Lie algebra cases.

The algebra of the subspace semigroup of M ( q )

Jan Okniński (2002)

Colloquium Mathematicae

The semigroup S = S ( M ( q ) ) of subspaces of the algebra M ( q ) of 2 × 2 matrices over a finite field q is studied. The ideal structure of S, the regular -classes of S and the structure of the complex semigroup algebra ℂ[S] are described.
