Filter Dimension

Intuitively, the filter dimension of an algebra or a module measures how `close' standard filtrations of the algebra or the module are. In particular, for a simple algebra it also measures the growth of how `fast' one can prove that the algebra is simple. The filter dimension appears naturally when one wants to generalize the Bernstein's inequality for the Weyl algebras to the class of simple finitely generated algebras. This paper is a review of the author's results on the filter dimension and its connections with the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension, the Krull dimension, the representation theory of simple finitely generated algebras and the `size' of their maximal commutative subalgebras.

Dixmier's Problem 6 for the Weyl Algebra (the Generic type Problem)

A short proof is given to Dixmier's 6'th problem for the Weyl algebra (and other algebras of Gelfand-Kirillov dimension which is less than 3 like rings of differential operators on smooth irreducible algebraic curves).

Gelfand-Kirillov dimension of commutative subalgebras of simple infinite dimensional algebras and their quotient division algebras

For central simple finitely generated algebras of finite Gelfand-Kirillov dimension and for their division algebras upper bounds are obtained for the transcendence degree of their commutative subalgebras and subfields respectively. In the formulae for the upper bounds are used only two dimensions of the algebras: the Gelfand-Kirillov and the filter dimension. In the case of the ring of differential operators on a smooth irreducible affine algebraic variety the upper bounds are the exact upper bounds. A similar upper bound is given for the transcendence degree of isotropic subalgebras of strongly simple Poisson algebras.
