Multialternating graded polynomials and growth of polynomial identities. (Q2845455)

Let \(G\) be a finite group and \(F\) a field of characteristic 0. The authors consider \(G\)-graded associative algebras over \(F\) and their graded polynomial identities. Let \(A\) be a finite dimensional \(G\)-graded algebra over \(F\) that is simple as a \(G\)-graded algebra. The authors construct multialternating graded polynomials that do not vanish on \(A\). Probably the most interesting and important result of the paper is a corollary to the above mentioned fact. It states that if \(A\) is an arbitrary \(G\)-graded algebra satisfying an ordinary polynomial identity then its \(G\)-graded exponent exists and is an integer.NEWLINENEWLINE We recall that the above corollary was obtained in the case when \(G\) is Abelian, in the papers by \textit{E. Aljadeff}, \textit{A. Giambruno} and \textit{D. La Mattina}, [J. Reine Angew. Math. 650, 83-100 (2011; Zbl 1215.16014)], and \textit{A. Giambruno} and \textit{D. La Mattina}, [Adv. Math. 225, No. 2, 859-881 (2010; Zbl 1203.16021)].
