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.

Representation Rings of Lie Superalgebras

Given a Lie superalgebra g, we introduce several variants of the representation ring, built as subrings and quotients of the ring RZ2(g) of virtual g-supermodules, up to (even) isomorphisms. In particular, we consider the ideal R+(g) of virtual g-supermodules isomorphic to their own parity reversals, as well as an equivariant K-theoretic super representation ring SR(g) on which the parity rever...

nilpotent quotients in finitely presented Lie rings †

A nilpotent quotient algorithm for finitely presented Lie rings over Z (LIENQ) is described. The paper studies the graded and non-graded cases separately. The algorithm computes the so-called nilpotent presentation for a finitely presented, nilpotent Lie ring. A nilpotent presentation consists of generators for the abelian group and the products expressed as linear combinations for pairs formed...

On Rings Whose Associated Lie Rings Are Nilpotent

We call (i?) 1 the Lie ring associated with R, and denote it by 9Î. The question of how far the properties of SR determine those of R is of considerable interest, and has been studied extensively for the case when R is an algebra, but little is known of the situation in general. In an earlier paper the author investigated the effect of the nilpotency of 9î upon the structure of R if R contains ...
