Noncommutative uniform algebras

noncommutative algebras

In this lecture 1 I would like to address the following question: given an associative algebra A 0 , what are the possible ways to deform it? Consideration of this question for concrete algebras often leads to interesting mathematical discoveries. I will discuss several approaches to this question, and examples of applying them. 1. Deformation theory 1.1. Formal deformations. The most general a...

Actions of Hopf algebras on noncommutative algebras

Often A is called H-module algebra. We refer reader to [11, 6] for the basic information concerning Hopf algebras and their actions on associative algebras. Definition 1.2 The invariants of H in A is the set AH of those a ∈ A, that ha = ε(h)a for each h ∈ H. Straightforward computations show, that AH is subalgebra of A. The notion of action of Hopf algebra on associative algebra generalize the ...

M-IDEAL STRUCTURE IN UNIFORM ALGEBRAS

It is proved that if A is aregular uniform algebra on a compact Hausdorff space X in which every closed ideal is an M-ideal, then A = C(X).
