Simple Lie Algebras Which Generalize Witt Algebras
We introduce a new class of simple Lie algebras W (n, m) (see Definition 1) that generalize the Witt algebra by using " exponential " functions, and also a subalgebra W * (n, m) thereof; and we show each derivation of W * (1, 0) can be written as a sum of an inner derivation and a scalar derivation (Theorem. 2) [10]. The Lie algebra W (n, m) is Z-graded and is infinite growth [4].
متن کاملShifted Witt Groups of Semi-local Rings
We show that the odd-indexed derived Witt groups of a semilocal ring with trivial involution vanish. We show that this is wrong when the involution is not trivial and we provide examples.
متن کاملLinear Groups and Square Properties in Rings
In [1] a proof was given of Fermat’s Two-Square Theorem using the group theoretical structure of the classical modular group. This has been extended in many directions and to other square properties in general rings. In particular in [2] a two-square theorem was given for the Gaussian integers in terms of when ii is a quadratic residue. In this note we examine and survey this technique and the ...
متن کاملWitt Rings and Matroids
The study of Witt rings of formally real fields in the algebraic theory of quadratic forms has led to a particularly good understanding of the finitely generated torsion free Witt rings. In this paper, we work primarily with a somewhat more general class of rings which can be completely characterized by (binary) matroids. The different types of standard constructions and invariants coming from ...
متن کاملWitt rings of quadratically presentable fields
This paper introduces an approach to the axiomatic theory of quadratic forms based on {tmem{presentable}} partially ordered sets, that is partially ordered sets subject to additional conditions which amount to a strong form of local presentability. It turns out that the classical notion of the Witt ring of symmetric bilinear forms over a field makes sense in the context of {tmem{quadratically p...
