Abstract

Let $A=kQ/I$ be a finite dimensional basic algebra over an algebraically closed field $k$ which is a gentle algebra with the marked ribbon surface $(\mathcal{S}_A,\mathcal{M}_A,\Gamma_A)$. It is known that $\mathcal{S}_A$ can be divided into some elementary polygons $\{\Delta_i\mid 1\le i\le d\}$ by $\Gamma_A$ which has exactly one side in the boundary of $\mathcal{S}_A$. Let $\mathfrak{C}(\Delta_i)$ be the number of sides of $\Delta_i$ belonging to $\Gamma_A$ if the unmarked boundary component of $\mathcal{S}_A$ is not a side of $\Delta_i$; otherwise, $\mathfrak{C}(\Delta_i)=\infty$, and let $\mathsf{f}\text{-}\Delta$ be the set of all non-$\infty$-elementary polygons and $\mathcal{F}_A$ (respectively, ${\mathsf{f}\text{-}\mathcal{F}}_A$) the set of all forbidden threads (respectively, of finite length). Then we have \begin{enumerate} \item[{\rm (1)}] The global dimension of $A=\max\limits_{1\leq i\leq d}{\mathfrak{C}(\Delta_i)}-1 =\max\limits_{\mathit{\Pi}\in\mathcal{F}_A} l(\mathit{\Pi})$, where $l(\mathit{\Pi})$ is the length of $\mathit{\Pi}$. \item[{\rm (2)}] The left and right self-injective dimensions of $A=$ \begin{center} $\begin{cases} 0,\ \mbox{\text{if {\it Q} is either a point or an oriented cycle with full relations};}\\ \max\limits_{\Delta_i\in{\mathsf{f}\text{-}\Delta}}\big\{1, {\mathfrak{C}(\Delta_i)}-1 \big\}= \max\limits_{\mathit{\Pi}\in{\mathsf{f}\text{-}\mathcal{F}}_A} l(\mathit{\Pi}),\ \mbox{\text{otherwise}.} \end{cases}$ \end{center} \end{enumerate} As a consequence, we get that the finiteness of the global dimension of gentle algebras is invariant under AG-equivalence. In addition, we get that the number of indecomposable non-projective Gorenstein projective modules over gentle algebras is also invariant under AG-equivalence.

Invariants of Nilpotent Lie Algebras via Geometry and Algebra with a Focus on Computation

We consider the problem of computing rational invariants of nilpotent Lie algebras. We compare two methods that are commonly used for this task: the method of integral curves and the Dixmier map. Given a derivation of a rational function field with polynomial coefficients, we formulate a condition under which the kernel can be recovered from a family of rational integral curves, and we show that triangular derivations satisfy this hypothesis. This yields an explicit description of the kernel as a purely transcendental extension and produces algebraically independent generators. We also show that, in the triangular case, the resulting generators agree with those obtained from the Dixmier map via a local slice. A careful analysis of the generating set obtained from this method leads to an algorithm for computing generators of the rational invariant field of a nilpotent Lie algebra. An implementation of the methods is available in the SageMath system.

Quasilinear multiplication in the real Cayley--Dickson tower

Direct evaluation of the defining product in the real Cayley--Dickson algebra $A_n$, of dimension $N=2^n$, has quadratic arithmetic complexity. This paper gives a uniform algorithm for multiplication using $O(N\log N)$ real arithmetic operations and $O(N)$ auxiliary storage. The algorithm reduces multiplication to the alternating product on the imaginary subspace, then evaluates that product by a two-call recursion over one fixed quadratic coefficient extension. For $n\ge1$, the resulting bilinear algorithm uses at most $(9n-15)2^{n-1}+10$ input-dependent real multiplications, and for $n\ge3$, the specified arithmetic schedule uses $(34n-83)2^{n-1}+50$ real operations in total. Under this counting convention, the quasilinear schedule uses fewer operations than direct multiplication for $N\ge16$ and than the uniform Cariow--Cariowa method for $N\ge32$. The algorithm is implemented in the MIT-licensed C11 library fastCD, with a NumPy-backed Python interface, and its results are checked against an independent implementation of the defining recursion. In single-core benchmarks against direct multiplication and the uniform Cariow--Cariowa method, the quasilinear implementation had the lowest mean time of the three at every tested dimension $N\ge32$, for both single and batched products, and was roughly $16$ times faster than direct multiplication at $N=1024$.

Graded classification of Leavitt path algebras in terms of strong shift equivalence

Given two finite essential adjacency matrices $A$ and $B$, Hazrat's graded classification conjectures posit that an order preserving $\mathbb{Z}[x,x^{-1}]$-module isomorphism of $K_0$ groups implies graded Morita equivalence of the Leavitt path algebras of $A$ and $B$, while the pointed version predicts a graded isomorphism of the Leavitt path algebras when the $K_0$ group isomorphism additionally preserves the class of the regular module. For any field $k$, we show that the Leavitt path algebras over $k$ of $A$ and $B$ are graded Morita equivalent if and only if $A$ and $B$ are strong shift equivalent. By appealing to counterexamples of Kim and Roush from symbolic dynamics, this shows that Hazrat's graded classification conjectures are false.
