A theory for generalized morphisms and beyond

Abstract

Some sorts of generalized morphisms are defined from very basic mathematical objects such as sets, functions, and partial functions. A wide range of mathematical notions such as continuous functions between topological spaces, ring homomorphisms, module homomorphisms, group homomorphisms, and covariant functors between categories can be characterized in terms of the generalized morphisms. We show that the inverse of any bijective generalized morphism is also a generalized morphism (of the same kind), and hence a generalized isomorphism can be defined as a bijective generalized morphism. Galois correspondences are established and studied, not only for the Galois groups of the generalized automorphisms, but also for the "Galois monoids" of the generalized endomorphisms. Ways to construct the generalized morphisms and the generalized isomorphisms are studied. New interpretations on solvability of polynomials and solvability of homogeneous linear differential equations are introduced, and these ideas are roughly generalized for "general" equation solving in terms of our theory for the generalized morphisms. Some more results are presented. For example, we generalize the algebraic notions of transcendental elements over a field and purely transcendental field extensions, we obtain an isomorphism theorem that generalizes the first isomorphism theorems (for groups, rings, and modules), and we show that a part of our theory is closely related to dynamical systems.

Maximal tails,character fibres and induced modules for pullback Kumjian-Pask algebras

Let $f:\N^{k}\to\N^{\ell}$ be a surjective monoid homomorphism and let $Γ$ be a row-finite $\ell$-graph with no sources and finitely many vertices. We give an explicit graded isomorphism from the Kumjian--Pask algebra of the pullback $f^{*}Γ$ onto the tensor product of $\KP_{\K}(Γ)$ and the group algebra of the kernel of the group completion of $f$. When $Γ$ is strongly aperiodic, but need not be cofinal, every maximal tail $T$ and every maximal ideal $\mathfrak m$ of the kernel group algebra determine an explicit primitive ideal and primitive quotient. If, in addition, $\K$ is uncountable and algebraically closed, these ideals exhaust the primitive spectrum. We prove that the resulting parametrisation is a homeomorphism for the product of the maximal-tail and Zariski topologies. Each primitive ideal is realised as the annihilator of a simple module induced from the isotropy of a path which is cofinal in $T$, and the character fibres are algebraic tori. Two examples exhibit, respectively, a single character fibre and the non-Hausdorff gluing of two such fibres.

A classification of group gradings on incidence algebras over commutative rings

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with 1, $P$ a locally finite partially ordered set, and $G$ a group. We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for an $R$-algebra isomorphism between the incidence algebra $I(P,R)$ and the group algebra $RG$. Then, for an indecomposable ring $R$, a finite poset $P$ and an arbitrary group $G$, we classify the $G$-gradings of $I(P,R)$ up to graded isomorphism. The classification rests on a complete set of primitive orthogonal homogeneous idempotents. The corner algebras are split group algebras of finite abelian subgroups of $G$, and the off-diagonal Peirce blocks are multiplicity-free sums of bimodules induced from characters of double coset stabilizers. Graded isomorphisms are shown to have a rigid form, and a grading is determined up to graded isomorphism by the poset of idempotents, the corner groups, the types of the atomic bimodules and the structure constants of their multiplication. The data which occur are characterized by polynomial conditions, and over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero only finitely many graded isomorphism classes share given partial invariants. An example shows that the structure constants cannot be omitted. Some previous results are extended and enhanced, while providing alternative proofs for some known facts.
