 Affine Completeness of Generalised Dihedral Groups In this paper we study affine completeness of generalised dihedral groups. We give a formula for the number of unary compatible functions on these groups, and we characterise for every $k \in~\N$ the $k$-affine complete generalised dihedral groups. We find that the direct product of a $1$-affine complete group with itself need not be $1$-affine complete. Finally, we give an example of a nonabelian solvable affine complete group. For nilpotent groups we find a strong necessary condition for $2$-affine completeness. Categories:08A40, 16Y30, 20F05

 Endomorphisms That Are the Sum of a Unit and a Root of a Fixed Polynomial If $C=C(R)$ denotes the center of a ring $R$ and $g(x)$ is a polynomial in C[x]$, Camillo and Sim\'{o}n called a ring$g(x)$-clean if every element is the sum of a unit and a root of$g(x)$. If$V$is a vector space of countable dimension over a division ring$D,$they showed that$\end {}_{D}V$is$g(x)$-clean provided that$g(x)$has two roots in$C(D)$. If$g(x)=x-x^{2}$this shows that$\end {}_{D}V$is clean, a result of Nicholson and Varadarajan. In this paper we remove the countable condition, and in fact prove that$\Mend {}_{R}M$is$g(x)$-clean for any semisimple module$M$over an arbitrary ring$R$provided that$g(x)\in (x-a)(x-b)C[x]$where$a,b\in C$and both$b$and$b-a$are units in$R$.

Separation of Variables for$U_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}_{n+1})^{+}$Let$U_{q}(\SL)^{+}$be the positive part of the quantized enveloping algebra$U_{q}(\SL)$. Using results of Alev--Dumas and Caldero related to the center of$U_{q}(\SL)^{+}$, we show that this algebra is free over its center. This is reminiscent of Kostant's separation of variables for the enveloping algebra$U(\g)$of a complex semisimple Lie algebra$\g$, and also of an analogous result of Joseph--Letzter for the quantum algebra$\Check{U}_{q}(\g)$. Of greater importance to its representation theory is the fact that$\U{+}$is free over a larger polynomial subalgebra$N$in$n$variables. Induction from$N$to$\U{+}$provides infinite-dimensional modules with good properties, including a grading that is inherited by submodules. Categories:17B37, 16W35, 17B10, 16D60 29. CMB 2005 (vol 48 pp. 445) Patras, Frédéric; Reutenauer, Christophe; Schocker, Manfred  On the Garsia Lie Idempotent The orthogonal projection of the free associative algebra onto the free Lie algebra is afforded by an idempotent in the rational group algebra of the symmetric group$S_n$, in each homogenous degree$n$. We give various characterizations of this Lie idempotent and show that it is uniquely determined by a certain unit in the group algebra of$S_{n-1}$. The inverse of this unit, or, equivalently, the Gram matrix of the orthogonal projection, is described explicitly. We also show that the Garsia Lie idempotent is not constant on descent classes (in fact, not even on coplactic classes) in$S_n$. Categories:17B01, 05A99, 16S30, 17B60 30.

On Maps Preserving Products Maps preserving certain algebraic properties of elements are often studied in Functional Analysis and Linear Algebra. The goal of this paper is to discuss the relationships among these problems from the ring-theoretic point of view. Categories:16W20, 16N50, 16N60 31. CMB 2005 (vol 48 pp. 275) Smith, Patrick F.  Krull Dimension of Injective Modules Over Commutative Noetherian Rings Let$R$be a commutative Noetherian integral domain with field of fractions$Q$. Generalizing a forty-year-old theorem of E. Matlis, we prove that the$R$-module$Q/R$(or$Q$) has Krull dimension if and only if$R$is semilocal and one-dimensional. Moreover, if$X$is an injective module over a commutative Noetherian ring such that$X$has Krull dimension, then the Krull dimension of$X$is at most$1$. Categories:13E05, 16D50, 16P60 32.

Trivial Units for Group Rings with$G$-adapted Coefficient Rings For each finite group$G$for which the integral group ring$\mathbb{Z}G$has only trivial units, we give ring-theoretic conditions for a commutative ring$R$under which the group ring$RG$has nontrivial units. Several examples of rings satisfying the conditions and rings not satisfying the conditions are given. In addition, we extend a well-known result for fields by showing that if$R$is a ring of finite characteristic and$RG$has only trivial units, then$G$has order at most 3.

Biprojectivity and Biflatness for Convolution Algebras of Nuclear Operators For a locally compact group$G$, the convolution product on the space$\nN(L^p(G))$of nuclear operators was defined by Neufang \cite{Neuf_PhD}. We study homological properties of the convolution algebra$\nN(L^p(G))$and relate them to some properties of the group$G$, such as compactness, finiteness, discreteness, and amenability.

Like all previously known examples, our examples are contracted semigroup algebras and the underlying semigroups are unions of locally nilpotent subsemigroups. In our constructions we make more transparent than in the past the close relationship between the considered problem and combinatorics of words.

CMB 2002 (vol 45 pp. 451) Allison, Bruce; Smirnov, Oleg  Coordinatization Theorems For Graded Algebras In this paper we study simple associative algebras with finite$\mathbb{Z}$-gradings. This is done using a simple algebra$F_g$that has been constructed in Morita theory from a bilinear form$g\colon U\times V\to A$over a simple algebra$A$. We show that finite$\mathbb{Z}$-gradings on$F_g$are in one to one correspondence with certain decompositions of the pair$(U,V)$. We also show that any simple algebra$R$with finite$\mathbb{Z}$-grading is graded isomorphic to$F_g$for some bilinear from$g\colon U\times V \to A$, where the grading on$F_g$is determined by a decomposition of$(U,V)$and the coordinate algebra$A$is chosen as a simple ideal of the zero component$R_0$of$R$. In order to prove these results we first prove similar results for simple algebras with Peirce gradings. Category:16W50 38. CMB 2002 (vol 45 pp. 711) Yoshii, Yoji  Classification of Quantum Tori with Involution Quantum tori with graded involution appear as coordinate algebras of extended affine Lie algebras of type$\rmA_1$,$\rmC$and$\BC$. We classify them in the category of algebras with involution. From this, we obtain precise information on the root systems of extended affine Lie algebras of type$\rmC$. Category:16W50 39.

Group Gradings on Matrix Algebras Let$\Phi$be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero,$G$a finite, not necessarily abelian, group. Given a$G$-grading on the full matrix algebra$A = M_n(\Phi)$, we decompose$A$as the tensor product of graded subalgebras$A = B\otimes C$,$B\cong M_p (\Phi)$being a graded division algebra, while the grading of$C\cong M_q (\Phi)$is determined by that of the vector space$\Phi^n$. Now the grading of$A$is recovered from those of$A$and$B$using a canonical induction'' procedure. Category:16W50 40.
