A ug 2 00 7 Division algebras of Gelfand - Kirillov transcendence degree 2 Jason

چکیده
Let A be a finitely generated K-algebra that is a domain of GK dimension less than 3, and let Q(A) denote the quotient division algebra of A. We show that if D is a division subalgebra of Q(A) of GK dimension at least 2 then Q(A) is finite dimensional as a left D-vector space. We use this to show that if A is a finitely generated domain of GK dimension less than 3 over an algebraically closed field K then any division subalgebra D of Q(A) is either a finitely generated field extension of K of transcendence degree at most one, or Q(A) is finite dimensional as a left D-vector space.

Centralizers in Domains of Gelfandkirillov Dimension 2
Given an affine domain of Gelfand–Kirillov dimension 2 over an algebraically closed field, it is shown that the centralizer of any non-scalar element of this domain is a commutative domain of Gelfand–Kirillov dimension 1 whenever the domain is not polynomial identity. It is shown that the maximal subfields of the quotient division ring of a finitely graded Goldie algebra of Gelfand– Kirillov di...
متن کامل6 A ug 2 00 5 HOMOLOGICAL TRANSCENDENCE DEGREE
Let D be a division algebra over a base field k. The homological transcendence degree of D, denoted by HtrD, is defined to be the injective dimension of the algebra D⊗k D ◦. We show that Htr has several useful properties which the classical transcendence degree has. We extend some results of Resco, Rosenberg, Schofield and Stafford, and compute Htr for several classes of division algebras. The ...
متن کاملThe amenability and non-amenability of skew fields
We investigate the amenability of skew field extensions of the complex numbers. We prove that all skew fields of finite Gelfand-Kirillov transcendence degree are amenable. However there are both amenable and non-amenable finitely generated skew fields of infinite Gelfand-Kirillov transcendence degree. AMS Subject Classifications: 12E15, 43A07

We construct functorially a class of algebras using the formalism of double derivations. These algebras extend to higher dimensions Crawley-Boevey and Holland's construction of deformed preprojective algebras and encompass symplectic reflection algebras associated to wreath products. We use this construction to show that the quotient field of a symplectic reflection algebra is " rational " , co...
متن کاملOn the transcendence degree of subfields of division algebras
Abstract We study subfields of quotient division algebras of domains of finite GK dimension and introduce a combinatorial property we call the straightening property. We show that many classes of algebras have this straightening property and show that if A is a domain of GK dimension d with this property that is not PI, then the maximal subfields of the quotient division algebra of A have trans...
