A Lie property in group rings

Lie Group Representations on Polynomial Rings

0. Introduction. 1. Let G be a group of linear transformations on a finite dimensional real or complex vector space X. Assume X is completely reducible as a G-module. Let 5 be the ring of all complexvalued polynomials on X, regarded as a G-module in the obvious way, and let J C 5 be the subring of all G-invariant polynomials on X. Now let J be the set of all ƒ £ J having zero constant term and ...

Lie Ideals and Generalized Derivations in Semiprime Rings

Let R be a 2-torsion free ring and L a Lie ideal of R. An additive mapping F : R ! R is called a generalized derivation on R if there exists a derivation d : R to R such that F(xy) = F(x)y + xd(y) holds for all x y in R. In the present paper we describe the action of generalized derivations satisfying several conditions on Lie ideals of semiprime rings.

A Property of Ideals in Polynomial Rings

Every ideal in the polynomial ring in n variables over an infinite field has a reduction generated by n elements. Eisenbud and Evans [2] proved that every ideal in k[Xx,...,Xn] can be generated up to radical by n elements (where k is a field). Avinash Sathaye [7] and Mohan Kumar [5] proved a locally complete intersection in k[ Xv ..., Xn] can be generated by n elements. In this short note we sh...

A Note on Moufang-lie Rings

A Lie Group

These notes introduce SU (2) as an example of a compact Lie group. The definition of SU (2) is SU (2) = A A a 2 × 2 complex matrix, det A = 1, AA * = A * A = 1l In the name SU (2), the " S " stands for " special " and refers to the condition det A = 1 and the " U " stands for " unitary " and refers to the conditions AA * = A * A = 1l. The adjoint matrix A * is the complex conjugate of the trans...
