Abstract: Let A1:=Klanglex,fracddxangle be the Weyl algebra and mI1:=Klanglex,fracddx,intangle be the algebra of polynomial integro-differential operators over a field K of characteristic zero. The Conjecture/Problem of Dixmier (1968) [still open]: {em is an algebra endomorphism of the Weyl algebra A1 an automorphism?} The aim of the paper is to prove that {em each algebra endomorphism of the algebra mI1 is an automorphism}. Notice that in contrast to the Weyl algebra A1 the algebra mI1 is a non-simple, non-Noetherian algebra which is not a domain. Moreover, it contains infinite direct sums of nonzero left and right ideals.


The associative algebra \(\mathbb I_1\) over a field of characteristic zero is the algebra of polynomial integro-differential operators generated by elements \(\partial,x,\int\) with defining relations \[ \partial\int =1,\quad\left[H,\int\right]=\int,\quad H\left(1-\int\partial\right)=\left(1-\int\partial\right)H=\left(1-\int\partial\right), \] where \(H=\partial x\). It is proved that any algebra endomorphism of \(\mathbb I_1\) is an automorphism.
