Non-associative Ore extensions

Abstract: We introduce non-associative Ore extensions,

S = R [X; s i g m a, d e l t a]

, for any non-associative unital ring

R

and any additive maps

s i g m a, d e l t a : R i g h t a r r o w R

satisfying

s i g m a (1) = 1

and

d e l t a (1) = 0

. In the special case when

d e l t a

is either left or right

R_{d e l t a}

-linear, where

R_{d e l t a} = k e r (d e l t a)

, and

R

is

d e l t a

-simple, i.e.

0

and

R

are the only

d e l t a

-invariant ideals of

R

, we determine the ideal structure of the non-associative differential polynomial ring

D = R [X; m a t h r m {i d}_{R}, d e l t a]

. Namely, in that case, we show that all ideals of

D

are generated by monic polynomials in the center

Z (D)

of

D

. We also show that

Z (D) = R_{d e l t a} [p]

for a monic

p i n R_{d e l t a} [X]

, unique up to addition of elements from

Z (R)_{d e l t a}

. Thereby, we generalize classical results by Amitsur on differential polynomial rings defined by derivations on associative and simple rings. Furthermore, we use the ideal structure of

D

to show that

D

is simple if and only if

R

is

d e l t a

-simple and

Z (D)

equals the field

R_{d e l t a} c a p Z (R)

. This provides us with a non-associative generalization of a result by "{O}inert, Richter, and Silvestrov. This result is in turn used to show a non-associative version of a classical result by Jordan concerning simplicity of

D

in the cases when the characteristic of the field

R_{d e l t a} c a p Z (R)

is either zero or a prime. We use our findings to show simplicity results for both non-associative versions of Weyl algebras and non-associative differential polynomial rings defined by monoid/group actions on compact Hausdorff spaces.
