Codimension growth for weak polynomial identities, and non-integrality of the PI exponent (Q824447): Difference between revisions

Let \(K\) be a field of characteristic zero. The authors study the asymptotic behavior of the codimensions for polynomial identities of representations of Lie algebras, also called weak identities. These identities are related to pairs of the form \((A,L)\) where \(A\) is an associative enveloping algebra for the Lie algebra \(L\). First, the authors obtain a characterization of ideals of weak identities with polynomial growth of the codimensions in terms of their cocharacter sequence. Moreover, the authors obtain examples of pairs that generate varieties of pairs of almost polynomial growth. Second, they show that any variety of pairs of associative type is generated by the Grassmann envelope of a finitely generated superpair. As a corollary, the authors prove that any special variety of pairs which does not contain pairs of type \((R,\mathfrak{sl}_2 )\), consists of pairs with a solvable Lie algebra. Finally, they provide an example of a pair with non-integral exponent, contradicting to the conjecture of Amitsur in case of Lie pairs. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1461.16003].
