for two algebras $a$ and $b$, a linear map $t:a longrightarrow b$ is called separating, if $xcdot y=0$ implies $txcdot ty=0$ for all $x,yin a$. the general form and the automatic continuity of separating maps between various banach algebras have been studied extensively. in this paper, we first extend the notion of separating map for module case and then we give a description of a linear separa...

We prove that every Lie algebra can be decomposed into a solvable Lie algebra and a semisimple Lie algebra. Then we show that every complex semisimple Lie algebra is a direct sum of simple Lie algebras. Finally, we give a complete classification of simple complex Lie algebras.

We prove an explicit formula for the invariant μ(g) for finite-dimensional semisimple, and reductive Lie algebras g over C. Here μ(g) is the minimal dimension of a faithful linear representation of g. The result can be used to study Dynkin’s classification of maximal reductive subalgebras of semisimple Lie algebras.

The problem of non-solvable contractions of Lie algebras is analyzed. By means of a stability theorem, the problem is shown to be deeply related to the embeddings among semisimple Lie algebras and the resulting branching rules for representations. With this procedure, we determine all deformations of indecomposable Lie algebras having a nontrivial Levi decomposition onto semisimple Lie algebras...

This paper studies the representations of semisimple Lie algebras, with care given to the case of sln(C). We develop and utilize various tools, including the adjoint representation, the Killing form, root space decomposition, and the Weyl group to classify the irreducible representations of semisimple Lie algebras.

We connect the dual adjunction between MV-algebras and Tychonoff spaces with the general theory of natural dualities, and provide a number of applications. In doing so, we simplify the aforementioned construction by observing that there is no need of using presentations of MV-algebras in order to obtain the adjunction. We also provide a description of the dual maps that is intrinsically geometr...

The goal of Section 2 is to provide a proof of Theorem 2.0.1. Section 3 introduces the necessary facts about Lie algebras and representation theory, with the goal being the proof of Proposition 3.5.7 (ultimately as an application of Theorem 2.0.1), and Proposition 3.3.1. In Section 4 we prove the main theorem, using Propositions 3.3.1 and 3.5.7. In Section 5, we apply the theorem to the special...

In this paper, we define the higher Frobenius-Schur (FS-)indicators for finite-dimensional modules of a semisimple quasi-Hopf algebra H via the categorical counterpart developed in a 2005 preprint. When H is an ordinary Hopf algebra, we show that our definition coincides with that introduced by Kashina, Sommerhäuser, and Zhu. We find a sequence of gauge invariant central elements of H such that...

We show that semisimple Hopf algebras having a self-dual faithful irreducible comodule of dimension 2 are always obtained as abelian extensions with quotient Z2. We prove that nontrivial Hopf algebras arising in this way can be regarded as deformations of binary polyhedral groups and describe its category of representations. We also prove a strengthening of a result of Nichols and Richmond on c...
