Coactions of cocommutative Hopf algebras on skew polynomial rings

We classify the cocommutative Hopf algebras which coact inner-faithfully on (one-parameter) skew polynomial rings $A_q(n) = \Bbbk \langle x_1,\dots,x_n \rangle/(x_j x_i - q x_i x_j \mid i < j)$ for $n = 2$ and $3$. As a direct corollary, we obtain a classification of group gradings on two- and three-variable skew polynomial rings, recovering a result of Crawford in the two-variable case. Our results are achieved via Manin's universal coacting Hopf algebra construction, often denoted $\underline{\operatorname{aut}}(A_q(n))$, by classifying all its cocommutative quotients. We therefore also give an explicit presentation of $\underline{\operatorname{aut}}(A_q(n))$ for arbitrary $q \in \Bbbk^*$ and $n \in \mathbb{N}$.

Homological Integrals for Weak Hopf Algebras

We introduce the notion of a homological integral for an infinite-dimensional weak Hopf algebra and use the homological integral to prove several structure theorems. For example, we prove that the Artin--Schelter property and the Van den Bergh condition are equivalent for a noetherian weak Hopf algebra, and that the antipode is automatically invertible in this case. We also prove a decomposition theorem that states that any weak Hopf algebra finite over an affine center is a direct sum of Artin--Schelter Gorenstein, Cohen--Macaulay, GK dimension homogeneous weak Hopf algebras.

Closed subcategories of quotient categories

We study the spectrum of closed subcategories in a quasi-scheme, i.e. a Grothendieck category $X$. The closed subcategories are the direct analogs of closed subschemes in the commutative case, in the sense that when $X$ is the category of quasi-coherent sheaves on a quasi-projective scheme $S$, then the closed subschemes of $S$ correspond bijectively to the closed subcategories of $X$. Many interesting quasi-schemes, such as the noncommutative projective scheme Qgr-$B$ = Gr-$B$/Tors-$B$ associated to a graded algebra $B$, arise as quotient categories of simpler abelian categories. In this paper we will show how to describe the closed subcategories of any quotient category $X/Y$ in terms of closed subcategories of $X$ with special properties, when $X$ is a category with a set of compact projective generators.

The domain and prime properties for Koszul rings and algebras

We establish a technique to prove that a Koszul graded ring is prime or a domain using information about its Koszul dual. This is based on a general categorical result that expands on methods of J.Y. Guo, which proves that certain orbital rings are prime or domains. We apply this method to prove that if $A = kQ/I$ is a Koszul twisted Calabi-Yau algebra of dimension 2, such that $Q$ is connected with every vertex having outdegree at least 2, then $A$ is a prime piecewise domain. In particular, the preprojective algebra of a connected quiver whose underlying graph has minimum degree at least 2 is a prime piecewise domain.

Artin-Schelter Regular Algebras

Artin-Schelter regular algebras can be thought of as noncommutative versions of commutative polynomial rings, modeled after the special homological properties polynomial rings have as graded rings. First defined by Artin and Schelter in 1987, their introduction formed the beginning of the subject of noncommutative projective geometry. Artin-Schelter regular algebras have continued to play a large role in that subject, since geometrically they represent noncommutative (weighted) projective spaces. This is a survey of Artin-Schelter regular algebras, based on a talk at the 2022 meeting "Recent Advances and New Directions in the Interplay of Noncommutative Algebra and Geometry" at the University of Washington, in honor of the 65th birthday of S. Paul Smith. We review the earliest foundational results in the subject, and then describe some of the major themes of the last 30 years of research.

Quivers supporting twisted Calabi-Yau algebras

We consider graded twisted Calabi-Yau algebras of dimension 3 which are derivation-quotient algebras of the form $A = \kk Q/I$, where $Q$ is a quiver and $I$ is an ideal of relations coming from taking partial derivatives of a twisted superpotential on $Q$. We define the type $(M, P, d)$ of such an algebra $A$, where $M$ is the incidence matrix of the quiver, $P$ is the permutation matrix giving the action of the Nakayama automorphism of $A$ on the vertices of the quiver, and $d$ is the degree of the superpotential. We study the question of what possible types can occur under the additional assumption that $A$ has polynomial growth. In particular, we are able to give a nearly complete answer to this question when $Q$ has at most 3 vertices.

Stably Noetherian Algebras of Polynomial Growth

Let $A$ be a right noetherian algebra over a field $k$. If the base field extension $A \otimes_k K$ remains right noetherian for all extension fields $K$ of $k$, then $A$ is called stably right noetherian over $k$. We develop an inductive method to show that certain algebras of finite Gelfand-Kirillov dimension are stably noetherian, using critical composition series. We use this to characterize which algebras satisfying a polynomial identity are stably noetherian. The method also applies to many $\mathbb{N}$-graded rings of finite global dimension; in particular, we see that a noetherian Artin-Schelter regular algebra must be stably noetherian. In addition, we study more general variations of the stably noetherian property where the field extensions are restricted to those of a certain type, for instance purely transcendental extensions.

Growth of Graded Twisted Calabi-Yau Algebras

We initiate a study of the growth and matrix-valued Hilbert series of non-negatively graded twisted Calabi-Yau algebras that are homomorphic images of path algebras of weighted quivers, generalizing techniques previously used to investigate Artin-Schelter regular algebras and graded Calabi-Yau algebras. Several results are proved without imposing any assumptions on the degrees of generators or relations of the algebras. We give particular attention to twisted Calabi-Yau algebras of dimension d at most 3, giving precise descriptions of their matrix-valued Hilbert series and partial results describing which underlying quivers yield algebras of finite GK-dimension. For d = 2, we show that these are algebras with mesh relations. For d = 3, we show that the resulting algebras are a kind of derivation-quotient algebra arising from an element that is similar to a twisted superpotential.

Graded twisted Calabi-Yau algebras are generalized Artin-Schelter regular

This is a general study of twisted Calabi-Yau algebras that are $\mathbb{N}$-graded and locally finite-dimensional, with the following major results. We prove that a locally finite graded algebra is twisted Calabi-Yau if and only if it is separable modulo its graded radical and satisfies one of several suitable generalizations of the Artin-Schelter regularity property, adapted from the work of Martinez-Villa as well as Minamoto and Mori. We characterize twisted Calabi-Yau algebras of dimension 0 as separable $k$-algebras, and we similarly characterize graded twisted Calabi-Yau algebras of dimension 1 as tensor algebras of certain invertible bimodules over separable algebras. Finally, we prove that a graded twisted Calabi-Yau algebra of dimension 2 is noetherian if and only if it has finite GK dimension.

Well-closed subschemes of noncommutative schemes

Van den Bergh has defined the blowup of a noncommutative surface at a point lying on a commutative divisor. We study one aspect of the construction, with an eventual aim of defining more general kinds of noncommutative blowups. Our basic object of study is a quasi-scheme X (a Grothendieck category). Given a closed subcategory Z, in order to define a blowup of X along Z one first needs to have a functor F which is an analog of tensoring with the defining ideal of Z. Following Van den Bergh, a closed subcategory Z which has such a functor is called well-closed. We show that well-closedness can be characterized by the existence of certain projective effacements for each object of X, and that the needed functor F has an explicit description in terms of such effacements. As an application, we prove that closed points are well-closed in quite general quasi-schemes.

Skew Calabi-Yau triangulated categories and Frobenius Ext-algebras

We investigate the conditions that are sufficient to make the Ext-algebra of an object in a (triangulated) category into a Frobenius algebra and compute the corresponding Nakayama automorphism. As an application, we prove the conjecture that hdet($μ_A$) = 1 for any noetherian Artin-Schelter regular (hence skew Calabi-Yau) algebra A.

Skew Calabi-Yau Algebras and Homological Identities

A skew Calabi-Yau algebra is a generalization of a Calabi-Yau algebra which allows for a non-trivial Nakayama automorphism. We prove three homological identities about the Nakayama automorphism and give several applications. The identities we prove show (i) how the Nakayama automorphism of a smash product algebra A # H is related to the Nakayama automorphisms of a graded skew Calabi-Yau algebra A and a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra H that acts on it; (ii) how the Nakayama automorphism of a graded twist of A is related to the Nakayama automorphism of A; and (iii) that Nakayama automorphism of a skew Calabi-Yau algebra A has trivial homological determinant in case A is noetherian, connected graded, and Koszul.

Idealizer Rings and Noncommutative Projective Geometry

We study some properties of graded idealizer rings with an emphasis on applications to the theory of noncommutative projective geometry. In particular we give examples of rings for which the $χ$-conditions of Artin and Zhang and the strong noetherian property have very different behavior on the left and right sides.

Generic Noncommutative Surfaces

We study a class of noncommutative surfaces and their higher dimensional analogues which provide answers to several open questions in noncommutative projective geometry. Specifically, we give the first known graded algebras which are noetherian but not strongly noetherian, answering a question of Artin, Small, and Zhang. In addition, these examples are maximal orders and satisfy the $χ_1$ condition but not $χ_i$ for $i \geq 2$, answering a questions of Stafford and Zhang and a question of Stafford and Van den Bergh. Finally, we show that these algebras have finite cohomological dimension.
