Semigroup Algebras of the Full Matrix Semigroup Over a Finite Field

چکیده
Let M denote the multiplicative semigroup of all n-by-n matrices over a finite field F and K a commutative ring with an identity element in which the characteristic of F is a unit. It is proved here that the semigroup algebra K[M] is the direct sum of n + 1 algebras, namely, of one full matrix algebra over each of the group algebras K[GL(r, F)] with r = 0, 1, ..., n . The degree of the relevant matrix algebra over K[GL(r, F)] is the number of r-dimensional subspaces in an n-dimensional vector space over F. For K a field of characteristic different from that of F, this result was announced by Faddeev in 1976. He only published an incomplete sketch of his proof, which relied on details from the representation theory of finite general linear groups. The present proof is self-contained.

Derivations on Certain Semigroup Algebras
In the present paper we give a partially negative answer to a conjecture of Ghahramani, Runde and Willis. We also discuss the derivation problem for both foundation semigroup algebras and Clifford semigroup algebras. In particular, we prove that if S is a topological Clifford semigroup for which Es is finite, then H1(M(S),M(S))={0}.
متن کاملFaithful Linear Representations of Bands
A band is a semigroup consisting of idempotents. It is proved that for any field K and any band S with finitely many components, the semigroup algebra K[S] can be embedded in upper triangular matrices over a commutative K-algebra. The proof of a theorem of Malcev [4, Theorem 10] on embeddability of algebras into matrix algebras over a field is corrected and it is proved that if S = F ∪ E is a b...
متن کاملModule cohomology group of inverse semigroup algebras
Let $S$ be an inverse semigroup and let $E$ be its subsemigroup of idempotents. In this paper we define the $n$-th module cohomology group of Banach algebras and show that the first module cohomology group $HH^1_{ell^1(E)}(ell^1(S),ell^1(S)^{(n)})$ is zero, for every odd $ninmathbb{N}$. Next, for a Clifford semigroup $S$ we show that $HH^2_{ell^1(E)}(ell^1(S),ell^1(S)^{(n)})$ is a Banach sp...
متن کاملAPPROXIMATE IDENTITY IN CLOSED CODIMENSION ONE IDEALS OF SEMIGROUP ALGEBRAS
Let S be a locally compact topological foundation semigroup with identity and Ma(S) be its semigroup algebra. In this paper, we give necessary and sufficient conditions to have abounded approximate identity in closed codimension one ideals of the semigroup algebra $M_a(S)$ of a locally compact topological foundationsemigroup with identity.
