چکیده

We begin the study of simple finite-dimensional prime representations of quantum affine algebras from a homological perspective. Namely, we explore the relation between self extensions of simple representations and the property of being prime. We show that every nontrivial simple module has a nontrivial self extension. Conversely, if a simple representation has a unique nontrivial self extension up to isomorphism, then its Drinfeld polynomial is a power of the Drinfeld polynomial of a prime representation. It turns out that, in the sl(2) case, a simple module is prime if and only if it has a unique nontrivial self extension up to isomorphism. It is tempting to conjecture that this is true in general and we present a large class of prime representations satisfying this homological property.

In this paper we study the problem of approximation of the L-topological invariants by their finite dimensional analogues. We obtain generalizations of the theorem of Lück [L], dealing with towers of finitely sheeted normal coverings. We prove approximation theorems, establishing relations between the homological invariants, corresponding to infinite dimensional representations and sequences of...

Balancing noise and plasticity in gene expression

Coupling the control of expression stochasticity (noise) with the capacity to expression change (plasticity) can constrain gene function and limit adaptation. Which factors contribute then to modulate this coupling? Transcription re-initiation is generally associated to coupling and this is commonly related to strong chromatin regulation. We alternatively show how strong regulation can however ...

This paper studies the homological determinants and Nakayama automorphisms of not-necessarily-noetherian m-Koszul twisted Calabi-Yau or, equivalently, m-Koszul Artin-Schelter regular, algebras. Dubois-Violette showed that such an algebra is isomorphic to a derivation quotient algebra D(w, i) for a unique-up-to-scalar-multiples twisted superpotential w. By definition, D(w, i) is the quotient of ...
