We compare the restriction to the context of weak Hopf algebras of the notion of crossed product with a Hopf algebroid introduced in cite{BB} with the notion of crossed product with a weak Hopf algebra introduced in~cite{AG}
A Lie algebra $L$ over a field $mathbb{F}$ is said to be zero product determined (zpd) if every bilinear map $f:Ltimes Lto mathbb{F}$ with the property that $f(x,y)=0$ whenever $x$ and $y$ commute is a coboundary. The main goal of the paper is to determine whether or not some important Lie algebras are zpd. We show that the Galilei Lie algebra $mathfrak{sl}_2ltimes V$, where $V$ is a simple $mathfrak{sl}_2$-module, is zpd if and only if $dim V =2$ or $dim V$ is odd. The class of zpd Lie algebras also includes the quantum torus Lie algebras $mathcal{L}_q$ and $mathcal{L}^+_q$, the untwisted affine Lie algebras, the Heisenberg Lie algebras, and all Lie algebras of dimension at most $3$, while the class of non-zpd Lie algebras includes the ($4$-dimensional) aging Lie algebra $mathfrak {age}(1)$ and all Lie algebras of dimension more than $3$ in which only linearly dependent elements commute. We also give some evidence of the usefulness of the concept of a zpd Lie algebra by using it in the study of commutativity preserving linear maps.
Let $H$ be a weak Hopf algebra that is a finitely generated module over its affine center. We show that $H$ has finite self-injective dimension and so the Brown--Goodearl Conjecture holds in this special weak Hopf setting.
We construct comparison morphisms between two well-known projective resolutions of a monomial algebra $A$: the bar resolution and Bardzells resolution; the first one is used to define the cup product and the Lie bracket on the Hochschild cohomology $HH^*(A)$ and the second one has been shown to be an efficient tool for computations of these cohomology groups. The constructed comparison morphisms allow us to show that the cup product restricted to even degrees of the Hochschild cohomology has a very simple description. Moreover, for $A=k Q/I$ a monomial algebra such that $dim_k e_i A e_j = 1$ whenever there exists an arrow $alpha: i to j in Q_1$, we describe the Lie action of the Lie algebra $HH^1(A)$ on $HH^{ast}(A)$.
We introduce a notion of $n$-Lie Rinehart algebras as a generalization of Lie Rinehart algebras to $n$-ary case. This notion is also an algebraic analogue of $n$-Lie algebroids. We develop representation theory and describe a cohomology complex of $n$-Lie Rinehart algebras. Furthermore, we investigate extension theory of $n$-Lie Rinehart algebras by means of $2$-cocycles. Finally, we introduce crossed modules of $n$-Lie Rinehart algebras to gain a better understanding of their third dimensional cohomology groups.
We introduce various notions of rank for a symmetric tensor, namely: rank, border rank, catalecticant rank, generalized rank, scheme length, border scheme length, extension rank and smoothable rank. We analyze the stratification induced by these ranks. The mutual relations between these stratifications, allow us to describe the hierarchy among all the ranks. We show that strict inequalities are possible between rank, border rank, extension rank and catalecticant rank. Moreover we show that scheme length, generalized rank and extension rank coincide.
