Malcev-Neumann series and the free field
نویسنده
چکیده
After reviewing some aspects of Cohn’s theory of the free field, we give another proof of a theorem of Lewin: the subfield of rational elements in the field of Malcev-Neumann series on the free group is isomorphic to the free field.

A Residue Theorem for Malcev-neumann Series
In this paper, we establish a residue theorem for Malcev-Neumann series that requires few constraints, and includes previously known combinatorial residue theorems as special cases. Our residue theorem identifies the residues of two formal series that are related by a change of variables. We obtain simple conditions for when a change of variables is possible, and find that the two related forma...
متن کاملDamage identification of structures using second-order approximation of Neumann series expansion
In this paper, a novel approach proposed for structural damage detection from limited number of sensors using extreme learning machine (ELM). As the number of sensors used to measure modal data is normally limited and usually are less than the number of DOFs in the finite element model, the model reduction approach should be used to match with incomplete measured mode shapes. The second-order a...
متن کاملDegree Estimate for Commutators
Let K〈X〉 be a free associative algebra over a field K of characteristic 0 and let each of the noncommuting polynomials f, g ∈ K〈X〉 generate its centralizer. Assume that the leading homogeneous components of f and g are algebraically dependent with degrees which do not divide each other. We give a counterexample to the recent conjecture of Jie-Tai Yu that deg([f, g]) = deg(fg − gf) > min{deg(f),...
متن کاملA Generalization of Stanley’s Monster Reciprocity Theorem
By studying the reciprocity property of linear Diophantine systems in light of Malcev-Neumann series, we present in this paper a new approach to and a generalization of Stanley’s monster reciprocity theorem. A formula for the “error term” is given in the case when the system does not have the reciprocity property. We also give a short proof of Stanley’s reciprocity theorem for linear homogeneou...
متن کاملOn Derivation Algebras of Malcev Algebras and Lie Triple Systems
W. H. Davenport has shown that the derivation algebra 3)(4) of a semisimple Malcev algebra A of characteristic 0 acts completely reducibly on A. The purpose of the present note is to characterize those Malcev algebras which have such derivation algebras as those whose radical is central and to obtain the same result for Lie triple systems. Analogous results are known to hold for standard and al...
