Abstract
We present old and new results about Capelli polynomials, \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded Capelli polynomials, Capelli polynomials with involution and their asymptotics.
Let \(Cap_m = \sum _{\sigma \in S_m} \text{(sgn} \sigma )t_{\sigma (1)}x_1t_{\sigma (2)}\cdots t_{\sigma (m-1)} x_{m-1}t_{\sigma (m)} \) be the m-th Capelli polynomial of rank m. In the ordinary case (see Giambruno and Zaicev, Israel J Math 135:125–145, 2003) it was proved the asymptotic equality between the codimensions of the T-ideal generated by the Capelli polynomial \(Cap_{k^2+1}\) and the codimensions of the matrix algebra M k(F). In (Benanti, Algebr Represent Theory 18:221–233, 2015) this result was extended to superalgebras proving that the \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded codimensions of the T 2-ideal generated by the \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded Capelli polynomials \(Cap_{M+1}^0\) and \(Cap_{L+1}^1\) for some fixed M, L, are asymptotically equal to the \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded codimensions of a simple finite dimensional superalgebra. Recently, the authors proved that the ∗-codimensions of a ∗-simple finite dimensional algebra are asymptotically equal to the ∗-codimensions of the T-∗-ideal generated by the ∗-Capelli polynomials \(Cap_{M+1}^{+}\) and \(Cap_{L+1}^{-}\), for some fixed natural numbers M and L.

1 Introduction
From Kemer’s theory (see [35]), the polynomial identities of the matrix algebra M k(F) over a field F of characteristic zero are among the most intriguing topics in the PI-theory. There are a lot of open problems and conjectures concerning the bases of polynomial identities of M k(F), the minimal degree of identities which do not follow from the standard polynomial, the numerical invariants of polynomial identities, etc. Similar problems are also to consider for matrix algebras with additional structure as \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-gradings, group gradings or involution. The Capelli polynomial plays a central role in the combinatorial PI-theory and in particular in the study of polynomial identities of the matrix algebra M k(F) in fact it was determinated a precise relation between the growth of the corresponding T-ideal and the growth of the T-ideal of the matrix algebra. Moreover the Capelli polynomials characterize the algebras having the cocharacter contained in a given strip (see [41]). Let us recall that, for any positive integer m, the m-th Capelli polynomial is the element of the free algebra F〈X〉 defined as
where S m is the symmetric group on {1, …, m}. It is an alternating polynomial and every polynomial which is alternating on t 1, …, t m can be written as a linear combination of Capelli polynomials obtained by specializing the x i’s. These polynomials were first introduced by Razmyslov (see [39]) in his construction of central polynomials for k × k matrices. It is easy to show that if A is a finite dimensional algebra A and dim A = m − 1 then A satisfies Cap m. Moreover, any finitely generated PI-algebra A satisfies Cap m for some m (see, for example, Theorem 2.2 in [35]). Then the matrix algebra M k(F) satisfies \(Cap_{k^2+1}\) and k 2 + 1 is actually the minimal degree of a Capelli polynomial satisfied by M k(F).
The main purpose of this paper is to present a survey on old and new results concerning the Capelli polynomials. In particular, in Sect. 2 we recall the results about the T-ideal generated by the m-th Capelli polynomial Cap m and in Sect. 3 the results concerning the T 2-ideal generated by the \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded Capelli polynomials \(Cap_{M+1}^0\) and \(Cap_{L+1}^1.\) We show their relations with the T-ideal of the polynomial identities of M k(F) and, respectively, with the T 2-ideals of the \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded identities of the simple finite dimensional superalgebra M k(F), M k,l(F) and M s(F ⊕ tF). In Sect. 4 we present the recent results obtained by the authors about the study of the ∗-codimensions of the T-∗-ideal generated by the ∗-Capelli polynomials \(Cap_{M+1}^+\) and \(Cap_{L+1}^-.\) These results has been announced in a complete version at the preprint server of Cornell University (https://arxiv.org/pdf/1911.04193.pdf) and has been submitted elsewhere.
2 Ordinary Case
Let F be a field of characteristic zero and let F〈X〉 = F〈x 1, x 2, …〉 be the free associative algebra on a countable set X over F. Recall that an ideal I of F〈X〉 is a T-ideal if it is invariant under all endomorphisms of F〈X〉. Let A be an associative algebra over F, then an element f = f(x 1, …, x n) ∈ F〈X〉 is a polynomial identity for A if f(a 1, …, a n) = 0 for any a 1, …, a n ∈ A. If f is a polynomial identity for A we usually write f ≡ 0 in A. Let Id(A) = {f ∈ F〈X〉 | f ≡ 0 in A} be the ideal of polynomial identities of A. When A satisfies a non trivial identity (i.e. Id(A) ≠ (0)), we say that A is a PI- algebra. The connection between T-ideals of F〈X〉 and PI-algebras is well understood: for any F-algebra A, Id(A) is a T-ideal of F〈X〉 and every T- ideal I of F〈X〉 is the ideal of identities of some F-algebra A. For I = Id(A) we denote by var(I) = var(A) the variety of all associative algebras having the elements of I as polynomial identities. The language of varieties is effective for investigations of PI-algebras.
An important class of T-ideals is given by the so-called verbally prime T-ideals. They were introduced by Kemer (see [35]) in his solution of the Specht problem as basic blocks for the study of arbitrary T-ideals. Recall that a T-ideal I ⊆ F〈X〉 is verbally prime if for any T-ideals I 1, I 2 such I 1 I 2 ⊆ I we must have I 1 ⊆ I or I 2 ⊆ I. A PI-algebra A is called verbally prime if its T-ideal of identities I = Id(A) is verbally prime. Also, the corresponding variety of associative algebras var(A) is called verbally prime. By the structure theory of T-ideals developed by Kemer (see [35]) and his classification of verbally prime T-ideals in characteristic zero, the study of an arbitrary T-ideal can be reduced to the study of the T-ideals of identities of the following verbally prime algebras
where G is the infinite dimensional Grassmann algebra, M k(F), M k(G) are the algebras of k × k matrices over F and G, respectively, and
Recall that G is the algebra generated by a countable set {e 1, e 2, …} subject to the conditions e i e j = −e j e i for all i, j = 1, 2, …, and G = G 0 ⊕ G 1 is the natural \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-grading on G, where G 0 and G 1 are the spaces generated by all monomials in the generators e i’s of even and odd length, respectively.
It is well known that in characteristic zero every T-ideal is completely determined by its multilinear elements. Hence, if P n is the space of multilinear polynomials of degree n in the variables x 1, …, x n, the relatively free algebra F〈X〉∕Id(A) is determined by the sequence of subspaces {P n∕(P n ∩ Id(A))}n≥1. The integer \(c_n( A) =\dim P_n /(P_n \cap Id( A))\) is called the n-th codimension of A and gives a quantitative estimate of the polynomial identities satisfied by A.
Thus to each T-ideal I = Id(A) one can associate the numerical sequence of codimensions {c n(I)}n≥1 = {c n(A)}n≥1 of I, or A, that plays an important role in the study of Id(A). It is well known that A is a PI-algebra if and only if c n(A) < n! for some n ≥ 1. Regev in [40] showed that if A is an associative PI-algebra, then c n(A) is exponentially bounded i.e., there exist constants α, β which depend on A such that c n(A) ≤ αβ n for any n ≥ 1 (see also [36] and [42] for the best known estimates). Giambruno and Zaicev improved this result and, in [23] and [24], proved that for a PI-algebra A
exists and is an integer; exp(A) is called the PI-exponent of the algebra A. For the verbally prime algebras we have (see [14, 43, 44] and [24])
In [43] Regev obtained the precise asymptotic behavior of the codimensions of the verbally prime algebra M k(F). It turns out that
where C is a certain constant explicitly computed. For the other verbally prime algebras M k(G), M k,l(G) there are only some partially results (see [14] and [16]). More precisely,
with α = (k + l)2, \(g=-\frac {1}{2}(k^2+l^2-1)\), β = 2k 2, \(h=-\frac {1}{2}(k^2-1)\), and a and b are undetermined constants. It turns out that it is in general a very hard problem to determine the precise asymptotic behavior of such sequences.
In [29] and in [10] it was found a relation among the asymptotics of codimensions of the verbally prime T-ideals and the T-ideals generated by Capelli polynomials or Amitsur’s Capelli-type polynomials.
Now, if f ∈ F〈X〉 we denote by 〈f〉T the T-ideal generated by f. Also for V ⊂ F〈X〉 we write 〈V 〉T to indicate the T-ideal generated by V . Let C m be the set of 2m polynomials obtained from the m-th Capelli polynomial Cap m by deleting any subset of variables x i (by evaluating the variables x i to 1 in all possible ways) and let 〈C m〉T denotes the T-ideal generated by C m. If U m = var(C m) is the variety corresponding to 〈C m〉T then exp(C m) = exp(U m). In case m = k 2, it follows from [43] that
Mishchenko, Regev and Zaicev in [37] computed the exp(C m), for an arbitrary m, and in particular they proved (see also [30, Theorem 9.1.5])
Theorem 1 ([37, Theorem])
-
(1)
m − 3 ≤exp(C m+1) ≤ m.
-
(2)
exp(C m+1) = max{a 1, a 2, a 3, a 4} where
\(a_j=max\{d_1^2+\cdots + d_j^2 \, | \, d_1, \ldots , d_j \in \mathbb {Z}, d_1, \ldots , d_j>0, d_1^2+\cdots + d_j^2 +j\leq m+1\}\).
-
(3)
exp(C m+1) ≤ m ⇔ m = q 2, for some q.
The proof applies, in an essential way, the classical Lagrange’s four square theorem.
In [29] Giambruno and Zaicev proved that the codimensions of \(U_{k^2+1}\) are asymptotically equal to the codimensions of the verbally prime algebra M k(F)
Theorem 2 ([29, Theorem 3, Corollary 4])
Let m = k 2 . Then var(C m+1) = var(M k(F) ⊕ B) for some finite dimensional algebra B such that exp(B) < k 2 . In particular
This result has been extended to the others verbally prime algebras by the so called Amitsur’s Capelli-type polynomials.
Let L and M be two natural numbers, let \(\hat {n}=(L+1)(M+1)\) and let μ be a partition of \(\hat {n}\) with associated rectangular Young diagram, \(\mu =((L+1)^{M+1})\vdash \hat {n}\). In [6] the following polynomials, denoted Amitsur’s Capelli-type polynomials, were introduced
where χ μ(σ) is the value of the irreducible character χ μ corresponding to the partition \(\mu \vdash \hat {n}\) on the permutation σ. We note that for L = 0 we have \(\mu =(1^{\hat {n}})\) and \( e^*_{M, L}=Cap_{\hat {n}}\) is the \(\hat {n}\)-th Capelli polynomial. The Amitsur’s Capelli-type polynomials generalize the Capelli polynomials in the sense that the Capelli polynomials characterize the algebras having the cocharacter contained in a given strip (see [41]) and the Amitsur’s polynomials characterize the algebras having a cocharacter contained in a given hook (see [6, Theorem B]).
Let \(E^*_{M, L}\) denote the set of \(2^{\hat {n}-1}\) polynomials obtained from \(E^*_{M, L}\) by evaluating the variables x i to 1 in all possible ways. Also we denote by \(\Gamma _{M, L}=\langle E^*_{M, L}\rangle _T\) the T-ideal generated by \(E^*_{M, L}\). Moreover we write \(\mathcal {V}_{M, L}=\mathrm{var}(E^*_{M, L})= \mathrm{var}(\Gamma _{M, L})\), \(c_n(E^*_{M, L})=c_n(\Gamma _{M, L})\) and \(\text{exp}(E^*_{M, L})=\text{exp}(\Gamma _{M, L})\). The following relations between the exponent of the Capelli-type polynomials and the exponent of the verbally prime algebras are well known (see [15])
In [15] (see also [30]) Berele and Regev, by using the generalized-six-square theorem [17], proved that
Theorem 3 ([15, Proposition 4.4.])
Let l ≤ k. Then \( k+l-3\leq \mathrm {exp}(E^*_{k,l})\leq k+l. \)
Finally, in [10] it was shown the following asymptotical equalities
Theorem 4 ([10, Theorem 5])
Let \(k,l \in \mathbb {N}.\) Then \(\mathrm {var}(E^*_{k^2+l^2,2kl})=\mathrm {var}(M_{k,l}(G)\oplus G(D'))\) , where D′ is a finite dimensional superalgebra such that exp(D′) < (k + l)2 . In particular
Theorem 5 ([10, Theorem 10])
Let \(k \in \mathbb {N}\) , k > 0. Then \(\mathrm {var}(E^*_{k^2,k^2})=\mathrm {var}(M_{k}(G)\oplus G(D'))\) , where D′ is a finite dimensional superalgebra such that exp(D′) < 2k 2 . In particular
3 \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-Graded Case
Recall that an algebra A is a superalgebra (or \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded algebra) with grading (A (0), A (1)) if A = A (0) ⊕ A (1), where A (0), A (1) are subspaces of A satisfying:
The elements of A (0) and of A (1) are called homogeneous of degree zero (or even elements) and of degree one (or odd elements), respectively. If we write X = Y ∪ Z as the disjoint union of two countable sets, then the free associative algebra \(F\langle X\rangle =F\langle Y \cup Z \rangle ={\mathcal F}^{(0)}\oplus {\mathcal F}^{(1)}\) has a natural structure of free superalgebra with grading \(({\mathcal F}^{(0)},{\mathcal F}^{(1)})\), where \({\mathcal F}^{(0)}\) is the subspace generated by the monomials of even degree with respect to Z and \({\mathcal F}^{(1)}\) is the subspace generated by the monomials having odd degree in Z.
Recall that an element f(y 1, …, y n, z 1, …, z m) of F〈Y ∪ Z〉 is a \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded identity or a superidentity for A if f(a 1, …, a n, b 1, …, b m) = 0, for all a 1, …, a n ∈ A (0) and b 1, …, b m ∈ A (1). The set Id sup(A) of all \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded identities of A is a T 2-ideal of F〈Y ∪ Z〉 i.e., an ideal invariant under all endomorphisms of F〈Y ∪ Z〉 preserving the grading. Moreover, every T 2-ideal Γ of F〈Y ∪ Z〉 is the ideal of \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded identities of some superalgebra A = A (0) ⊕ A (1), Γ = Id sup(A). For Γ = Id sup(A) a T 2-ideal of F〈Y ∪ Z〉, we denote by supvar( Γ) or supvar(A) the supervariety of superalgebras having the elements of Γ as \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded identities.
As it was shown by Kemer (see [34, 35]), superalgebras and their \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded identities play a basic role in the study of the structure of varieties of associative algebras over a field of characteristic zero. More precisely Kemer showed that any variety is generated by the Grassmann envelope of a suitable finite dimensional superalgebra (see Theorem 3.7.8 [30]) and moreover he established that an associative variety is a prime variety if and only if it is generated by the Grassmann envelope of a simple finite dimensional superalgebra.
Recall that, if F is an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, then a simple finite dimensional superalgebra over F is isomorphic to one of the following algebras (see [30, 35]):
-
1.
M k(F) with trivial grading (M k(F), 0);
-
2.
M k,l(F) with grading \(\left (\left ( \begin {array}{cc} F_{11} & 0 \\ 0 & F_{22} \\ \end {array}\right ), \left ( \begin {array}{cc} 0 & F_{12} \\ F_{21} & 0 \\ \end {array}\right )\right )\), where F 11, F 12, F 21, F 22 are k × k, k × l, l × k and l × l matrices respectively, k ≥ 1 and l ≥ 1;
-
3.
M s(F ⊕ tF) with grading (M s(F), tM s(F)), where t 2 = 1.
Thus an important problem in the theory of PI-algebras is to describe the T 2-ideals of \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded identities of finite dimensional simple superalgebra: Id sup(M k(F)), Id sup(M k,l(F)), Id sup(M s(F ⊕ tF)).
In case charF = 0, it is well known that Id sup(A) is completely determined by its multilinear polynomials and an approach to the description of the \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded identities of A is based on the study of the \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded codimensions sequence of this superalgebra. If \(P^{sup}_n\) denotes the space of multilinear polynomials of degree n in the variables y 1, z 1, …, y n, z n (i.e., y i or z i appears in each monomial at degree 1), then the sequence of spaces \(\{P^{sup}_n \cap Id^{sup}(A) \}_{n\geq 1}\) determines Id sup(A) and
is called the n-th \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded codimension of A. The asymptotic behaviour of the \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded codimensions plays an important role in the PI-theory of superalgebras. In 1985, Giambruno e Regev (see [22]) proved that the sequence \(\{c_n^{sup}(A)\}_{n\geq 1}\) is exponentially bounded if and only if A satisfies an ordinary polynomial identity. In [12] it was proved that if A is a finitely generated superalgebra satisfying a polynomial identity, then \(\displaystyle {\lim _{n\rightarrow \infty }\root n \of {c_n^{sup}(A)}}\) exists and is a non negative integer. It is called superexponent (or \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-exponent) of A and it is denoted by
We remark that in [21] the existence of the G-exponent has been proved when G is a group of prime order and, in general, in [2, 31] and [1] for an arbitrary PI-algebras graded by a finite abelian group G.
Now, if f ∈ F〈Y ∪ Z〉 we denote by \(\langle f\rangle _{T_2}\) the T 2-ideal generated by f. Also for a set of polynomials V ⊂ F〈Y ∪ Z〉 we write \(\langle V\rangle _{T_2}\) to indicate the T 2-ideal generated by V. Let denote by Cap m[Y, X] = Cap m(y 1, …, y m;x 1, …, x m−1) and Cap m[Z, X] = Cap m(z 1, …, z m;x 1, …, x m−1) the m-th \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded Capelli polynomial in the alternating variables of homogeneous degree zero y 1, …, y m and of homogeneous degree one z 1, …, z m, respectively. Then \(Cap_m^0\) indicates the set of 2m−1 polynomials obtained from Cap m[Y, X] by deleting any subset of variables x i (by evaluating the variables x i to 1 in all possible way). Similarly, we define by \(Cap_m^1\) the set of 2m−1 polynomials obtained from Cap m[Z, X] by deleting any subset of variables x i.
If L and M are two natural numbers, let ΓM+1,L+1 be the T 2-ideal generated by the polynomials \(Cap_{M+1}^0, Cap_{L+1}^1\), \(\Gamma _{M+1,L+1}=\langle Cap_{M+1}^0, Cap_{L+1}^1 \rangle _{T_2}.\) We also write \(\mathcal {U}^{sup}_{M+1,L+1}=\mathrm{supvar}(\Gamma _{M+1,L+1})\).
In [8] it was calculated the \(\mathrm{supexp}(\mathcal {U}^{\mathrm{sup}}_{M+1,L+1})\). We recall the following
Definition 1 (see [8])
Let M and L be fixed. Then, for any integers s, t ≥ 0, r ≥ 1 such that r − 1 = r 0 + r 1 for some non-negative integers r 0, r 1, we define the set
Also, given integers s, t ≥ 0 (r = 0), we define the set
Moreover, let
and
then we define
Theorem 6 ([8, Theorem 4])
If M ≥ L ≥ 0, then
-
(1)
\(\mathrm {supexp}(\mathcal {U}^{\mathrm {sup}}_{M+1,L+1})=a_0\);
-
(2)
\((M+L)-10\leq \mathrm {supexp}(\mathcal {U}^{\mathrm {sup}}_{M+1,L+1})\leq (M+L)\).
This result was inspirated by the ordinary case. Moreover, we should mention that in the previous theorem an essential tool is the generalized-six-square theorem proved in [17] (see also Appendix A of [30]).
The following relations between the superexponent of the \(\mathbb {Z}_2\)-graded Capelli polynomials and the superexponent of the simple finite dimensional superalgebras are well known (see [8, 12, 28])
In [9] it was found a close relation among the asymptotics of \(\mathcal {U}^{sup}_{k^2+l^2+1,2k l+1}\) and M k,l(F) and the asymptotics of \(\mathcal {U}^{sup}_{s^{2+1},s^{2+1}}\) and M s(F ⊕ tF). More precisely it was showed that
Theorem 7 ([9, Theorem 9])
Let M = k 2 + l 2 and L = 2kl with \(k,l \in \mathbb {N}\) , k > l > 0. Then \(\mathcal {U}^{sup}_{M+1,L+1}=supvar(\Gamma _{M+1,L+1})=supvar(M_{k,l}(F)\oplus D')\) , where D′ is a finite dimensional superalgebra such that supexp(D′) < M + L. In particular
Theorem 8 ([9, Theorem 14])
Let M = L = s 2 with \(s \in \mathbb {N}\) , s > 0. Then \(\mathcal {U}^{sup}_{M+1,L+1}=supvar(\Gamma _{M+1,L+1})=\) supvar(M s(F ⊕ tF) ⊕ D″), where D″ is a finite dimensional superalgebra such that supexp(D″) < M + L. In particular
In [29] Giambruno and Zaicev proved that \(c^{sup}_n(\Gamma _{k^2+1,1})\simeq c^{sup}_n(M_{k}(F))\).
4 Involution Case
Let \(F\langle X, \ast \rangle =F\langle x_1,x_1^\ast , x_2, x_2^\ast , \ldots \rangle \) denote the free associative algebra with involution ∗ generated by the countable set of variables \(X=\{x_1, x_1^\ast , x_2, x_2^\ast , \ldots \}\) over a field F of characteristic zero. Let (A, ∗) be an algebra with involution ∗ over F, recall that an element \(f(x_1,x_1^\ast , \cdots , x_n,x_n^\ast )\) of F〈X, ∗〉 is a ∗-polynomial identity (or ∗-identity) for A if \(f(a_1,a_1^\ast , \cdots , a_n,a_n^\ast )=0\), for all a 1, …, a n ∈ A. We denote by Id ∗(A) the set of all ∗-polynomial identities satisfied by A. Id ∗(A) is a T-∗-ideal of F〈X, ∗〉 i.e., an ideal invariant under all endomorphisms of F〈X, ∗〉 commuting with the involution of the free algebra. Similar to the case of ordinary identities any T-∗-ideal Γ of F〈X, ∗〉 is the ideal of ∗-identities of some algebra A with involution ∗, Γ = Id ∗(A). For Γ = Id ∗(A) we denote by var∗( Γ) = var∗(A) the variety of ∗-algebras having the elements of Γ as ∗-identities.
It is well known that in characteristic zero Id ∗(A) is completely determinated by the multilinear ∗-polynomials it contains. To the T-∗-ideal Γ = Id ∗(A) one associates a numerical sequence called the sequence of ∗-codimensions \(c_n^\ast (\Gamma )=c_n^\ast (A)\) which is the main tool for the quantitative investigation of the ∗-polynomial identities of A. Recall that \(c_n^\ast (A)\), n = 1, 2, …, is the dimension of the space of multilinear polynomial in n-th variables in the corresponding relatively free algebra with involution of countable rank. Thus, if we denote by \(P_n^\ast \) the space of all multilinear polynomials of degree n in \(x_1,x_1^\ast , \cdots , x_n,x_n^\ast \) then
It is clear that the ordinary free associative algebra F〈X〉 (without involution) can be considered as a subalgebra of F〈X, ∗〉 and, in particular, an ordinary polynomial identity (without involution) can be considered as an identity with involution. Hence if A is a ∗-algebra, then Id(A) ⊆ Id ∗(A). Moreover, a celebrated theorem of Amitsur ([4, 5], see also [30]) states that if an algebra with involution satisfies a ∗-polynomial identity then it satisfies an ordinary polynomial identity. At the light of this result in [22] it was proved that, as in the ordinary case, if A satisfies a non trivial ∗-polynomial identity then \(c_n^\ast (A)\) is exponentially bounded, i.e. there exist constants a and b such that \(c_n^\ast (A)\leq ab^n\), for all n ≥ 1. Later (see [7]) an explicit exponential bound for \(c_n^\ast (A)\) was exhibited and in [28] a characterization of finite dimensional algebras with involution whose sequence of ∗-codimensions is polynomial bounded was given. This result was extended to non-finite dimensional algebras (see [27]) and ∗-varieties with almost polynomial growth were classified in [26] and [38]. The asymptotic behavior of the ∗-codimensions was determined in [13] in case of matrices with involution.
Recently (see [33]), for any algebra with involution, it was studied the exponential behavior of \(c_n^\ast (A)\), and it was showed that the ∗-exponent of A
exists and is a non negative integer. It should be mentioned that the existence of the ∗-exponent was proved in [25] for finite dimensional algebra with involution.
An interesting problem in the theory of PI-algebras with involution ∗ is to describe the T-∗-ideals of ∗-polynomial identities of ∗-simple finite dimensional algebras. Recall that, if F is an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, then, up to isomorphisms, all finite dimensional ∗-simple are the following ones (see [30, 45]):
-
(M k(F), t) the algebra of k × k matrices with the transpose involution;
-
(M 2m(F), s) the algebra of 2m × 2m matrices with the symplectic involution;
-
(M h(F) ⊕ M h(F)op, exc) the direct sum of the algebra of h × h matrices and the opposite algebra with the exchange involution.
Let G be the infinite dimensional Grassmann algebra over F. G is generated by the elements e 1, e 2, … subject to the following condition e i e j = −e j e i, for all i, j ≥ 1. Recall that G has a natural Z 2-grading G = G 0 ⊕ G 1 where G 0 (resp. G 1) is the span of the monomials in the e i’s of even length (resp. odd length). If B = B 0 ⊕ B 1 is a superalgebra, then the Grassmann envelope of B is defined as G(B) = (G 0 ⊗ B 0) ⊕ (G 1 ⊗ B 1). The relevance of G(A) relies in a result of Kemer ([35, Theorem 2.3]) stating that if B is any PI-algebra, then its T-ideal of polynomial identities coincides with the T-ideal of identities of the Grassmann envelope of a suitable finite dimensional superalgebra. This result has been extended to algebras with involution in fact in [3] it was proved that, if A is a PI-algebra with involution over a field F of characteristic zero, then there exists a finite dimensional superalgebra with superinvolution B such that Id ∗(A) = Id ∗(G(B)).
Recall that a superinvolution ∗ of B is a linear map of B of order two such that (ab)∗ = (−1)∣a∣∣b∣ b ∗ a ∗, for any homogeneous elements a, b ∈ B, where |a| denotes the homogeneous degree of a. It is well known that in this case \(B^*_0\subseteq B_0, B^*_1\subseteq B_1\) and we decompose \(B= B_0^+\bigoplus B_0^- \bigoplus B_1^+ \bigoplus B_1^-.\) We can define a superinvolution ∗ on G by requiring that \(e_i^* = -e_i,\) for any i ≥ 1. Then it is easily checked that G 0 = G + and G 1 = G −. Now, if B is a superalgebra one can perform its Grassmann envelope G(B) and in [3] it was shown that if B has a superinvolution ∗ we can regard G(B) as an algebra with involution by setting (g ⊗ a)∗ = g ∗⊗ a ∗, for homogeneous elements g ∈ G, a ∈ B. By making use of the previous theorem, in [33] it was proved the existence of the ∗-exponent of a PI-algebra with involution A and also an explicit way of computing exp∗(A) was given. The ∗-exponent is computed as follows: if B is a finite dimensional algebra with superinvolution over F, then by Giambruno et al. [32] we write \(B= \bar {B}+J\) where \(\bar {B}\) is a maximal semisimple superalgebra with induced superinvolution and J = J(B) = J ∗. Also we can write \(\bar {B} = B_1 \oplus \cdots \oplus B_k\), where B 1, ⋯ , B k are simple superalgebras with induced superinvolution. We say that a subalgebra \(B_{i_1} \oplus \cdots \oplus B_{i_t},\) where \(B_{i_1},\ldots , B_{i_t}\) are distinct simple components, is admissible if for some permutation (l 1, …, l t) of (i 1, …, i t) we have that \(B_{l_1}JB_{l_2}J \cdots JB_{l_t} \ne 0.\) Moreover if \(B_{i_1} \oplus \cdots \oplus B_{i_t}\) is an admissible subalgebra of B then \(B' = B_{i_1} \oplus \cdots \oplus B_{i_t}+J\) is called a reduced algebra. In [33] it was proved that exp∗(A) = exp∗(G(B)) = d where d is the maximal dimension of an admissible subalgebra of B. It follows immediately that if A is a ∗-simple algebra then exp ∗(A) = dimF A. If \( \mathcal {V}= \mathrm{var}^{\ast }(A)\) is the variety of ∗-algebras generated by A we write \(Id^\ast (\mathcal {V})= Id^{\ast }(A)\), \(c_n^{\ast }(\mathcal {V})=c_n^{\ast }(A)\) and \(\text{exp}^{\ast }(\mathcal {V}) = \text{exp}^{\ast }(A)\).
The reduced algebras are basic elements of any ∗-variety in fact we have the following (see [11])
Theorem 9
Let \(\mathcal {V}\) be a proper variety of ∗-algebras. Then there exists a finite number of reduced superalgebras with superinvolution B 1, …, B t and a finite dimensional superalgebra with superinvolution D such that
with \(\mathrm {exp}^{\ast }(\mathcal {V})=\mathrm {exp}^{\ast }(G(B_1))=\cdots =\mathrm {exp}^{\ast }G((B_t))\) and \(\mathrm {exp}^{\ast }(G(D))<\mathrm {exp}^{\ast }(\mathcal {V}).\)
In terms of ∗-codimensions we obtain
Corollary 1
Let \(\mathcal {V}=\mathrm {var}^\ast (A)\) be a proper variety of ∗-algebras. Then there exists a finite number of reduced superalgebras with superinvolution B 1, …, B t and a finite dimensional superalgebra with superinvolution D such that
If A is a finite dimensional ∗-algebra, then we have the following
Corollary 2
Let A be a finite dimensional ∗-algebra. Then there exists a finite number of reduced ∗-algebras B 1, …, B t and a finite dimensional ∗-algebra D such that

4.1 ∗-Capelli Polynomials and the ∗-Algebra UT ∗(A 1, …, A n)
In this paragraph we shall recall the relation among the asymptotics of the ∗-codimensions of the ∗-simple finite dimensional algebras and the T-∗-ideals generated by the ∗-Capelli polynomials recently proved by the authors. If (A, ∗) is any algebra with involution ∗, let A + = {a ∈ A | a ∗ = a} and A − = {a ∈ A | a ∗ = −a} denote the subspaces of symmetric and skew elements of A, respectively. Since charF = 0, we can regard the free associative algebra with involution F〈X, ∗〉 as generated by symmetric and skew variables. In particular, for i = 1, 2, …, we let \(y_i=x_i+x_i^\ast \) and \(z_i=x_i-x_i^\ast \), then we write X = Y ∪ Z as the disjoint union of the set Y of symmetric variables and the set Z of skew variables and F〈X, ∗〉 = F〈Y ∪ Z〉. Hence a polynomial f = f(y 1, …, y m, z 1, …, z n) ∈ F〈Y ∪ Z〉 is a ∗-polynomial identity of A if and only if f(a 1, …, a m, b 1, …, b n) = 0 for all a i ∈ A +, b i ∈ A −. Let \(Cap_m^\ast [Y,X]=Cap_m(y_1, \ldots , y_m ; x_1, \ldots , x_{m-1})\) denote the m-th ∗-Capelli polynomial in the alternating symmetric variables y 1, …, y m and let \(Cap_m^\ast [Z,X]=Cap_m(z_1, \ldots , z_m ; x_1, \ldots , x_{m-1})\) be the m-th ∗-Capelli polynomial in the skew variables z 1, …, z m. Then we denote by \(Cap_m^+\) the set of 2m−1 polynomials obtained from \(Cap_m^\ast [Y,X]\) by deleting any subset of variables x i (by evaluating the variables x i to 1 in all possible way). Similarly, we define by \(Cap_m^-\) the set of 2m−1 polynomials obtained from \(Cap_m^\ast [Z,X]\) by deleting any subset of variables x i. If L and M are two natural numbers, we denote by \(\Gamma _{M+1,L+1}^\ast =\langle Cap_{M+1}^+, Cap_{L+1}^- \rangle \) the T-∗-ideal generated by the polynomials \(Cap_{M+1}^+, Cap_{L+1}^-\). We also write \(\mathcal {U}^\ast _{M+1,L+1}\) = var∗( ΓM+1,L+1) for the ∗-variety generated by \(\Gamma _{M+1,L+1}^\ast \).
The following results give us a characterization of the ∗-varieties satisfying a Capelli identity. The proof of the next result follows closely the proof given in [30, Theorem 11.4.3]
Theorem 10
Let \(\mathcal {V}\) be a variety of ∗-algebras. If \(\mathcal {V}\) satisfies the Capelli identity of some rank then \(\mathcal {V}=\mathrm {var}^\ast (A)\) , for some finitely generated ∗-algebra A.
Let M, L be two natural numbers. Let A = A + ⊕ A − be a generating ∗-algebra of \(\mathcal {U}^{\ast }_{M+1,L+1}\). It is easy to show that A satisfies a Capelli identity. Hence by the previous theorem, we may assume that A is a finitely generated ∗-algebra. Moreover by Sviridova [46, Theorem 1] we may consider A as a finite dimensional ∗-algebra. Since any polynomial alternating on M + 1 symmetric variables vanishes in A (see [30, Proposition 1.5.5]), we get that dim A + ≤ M. Similarly we get that dim A −≤ L and exp∗(A) ≤dim A ≤ M + L. Thus we have the following
Lemma 1
\(\mathrm {exp}^\ast (\mathcal {U}^{\ast }_{M+1,L+1})\leq M+L\).
Now, we recall the construction of the ∗-algebra UT ∗(A 1, …, A n) given in Section 2 of [18]. Let A 1, …, A n be a n-tuple of finite dimensional ∗-simple algebras, then \(A_i=(M_{d_i}(F),\mu _i)\), where μ i is the transpose or the symplectic involution, or \(A_i=(M_{d_i}(F)\oplus M_{d_i}(F)^{op},exc)\), where exc is the exchange involution.
Let γ d be the orthogonal involution defined on the matrix algebra M d(F) by putting, for all a ∈ M d(F), \(a^{\gamma _d}=g^{-1}a^tg=ga^tg,\) where a t is the transposed of the matrix a and
If \(d=\sum _{i=1}^n \text{dim}_FA_i\), then we can consider an embedding of ∗-algebras
defined by
where, if \(a_i \in A_i=(M_{d_i}(F),\mu _i)\), then \(\bar {a}_i=a_i\) and \(\bar {b}_i=a_i^{\mu _i\gamma _{d_i}}\), and if \(a_i=(\tilde {a}_i, \tilde {b}_i)\in A_i=(M_{d_i}(F)\oplus M_{d_i}(F)^{op},exc)\), then \(\bar {a}_i=\tilde {a}_i\) and \(\bar {b}_i=\tilde {b}_i\). Let D = D(A 1, …, A n) ⊆ M 2d(F) be the ∗-algebra image of \(\bigoplus _{i=1}^n A_i\) by Δ and let U be the subspace of M 2d(F) so defined:
where, for 1 ≤ i, j ≤ n, i ≠ j, U ij denote the vector space of the rectangular matrices of dimensions d i × d j. Let define (see section 2 of [18]) UT ∗(A 1, …, A n) = D ⊕ U ⊆ M 2d(F). It is easy to show that UT ∗(A 1, …, A n) is a subalgebra with involution of (M 2d(F), γ 2d) in which the algebras A i are embedded as ∗-algebras and whose ∗-exponent is given by
In [20] and [19] the link between the degrees of ∗-Capelli polynomials and the ∗-polynomial identities of UT ∗(A 1, …, A n) was investigated. If we set \(d^+:=\sum _{i=1}^n \mathrm{dim}_FA_i^+\) and \(d^-:=\sum _{i=1}^n \mathrm{dim}_FA_i^-, \) then the following result applies
Lemma 2
Let R = UT ∗(A 1, …, A n). Then \(Cap^\ast _M [Y,X]\) and \(Cap^\ast _L [Z,X]\) are in Id ∗(R) if and only if M ≥ d + + n and L ≥ d − + n.
4.2 Asymptotics for ∗-Capelli Polynomials
In this section we shall state our main results about the ∗-Capelli polynomials and their asymptotics (see [11]).
The following two key lemmas hold for any ∗-simple finite dimensional algebra.
Lemma 3
Let \(A= \bar {A} \oplus J\) where \(\bar {A}\) is a ∗-simple finite dimensional algebra and J = J(A) is its Jacobson radical. Then J can be decomposed into the direct sum of four \(\bar {A}\) -bimodules
where, for p, q ∈{0, 1}, J pq is a left faithful module or a 0-left module according to p = 1, or p = 0, respectively. Similarly, J pq is a right faithful module or a 0-right module according to q = 1 or q = 0, respectively. Moreover, for p, q, i, l ∈{0, 1}, J pq J ql ⊆ J pl , J pq J il = 0 for q ≠ i and there exists a finite dimensional nilpotent ∗-algebra N such that \(J_{11}\cong \bar {A}\otimes _F N\) (isomorphism of \(\bar {A}\) -bimodules and of ∗-algebras).
Proof
It follows from the proof of Lemma 2 in [29].
Lemma 4
Let \(\bar {A}\) be a ∗-simple finite dimensional algebra. Let \(M =\mathrm {dim}_F \bar {A}^+\) and \(L=\mathrm {dim}_F \bar {A}^-\) . Then \(\bar {A}\) does not satisfy \(Cap^\ast _{M}[Y,X]\) and \(Cap^\ast _{L}[Z,X]\).
Proof
The result follows immediately from [21, Lemma 3.1].
Lemma 5
-
(1)
Let M 1 = k(k + 1)∕2 and L 1 = k(k − 1)∕2 with \(k \in \mathbb {N}\) , k > 0 and let J 11≅M k(F) ⊗F N, as in Lemma 3 . If \(\Gamma _{M_1+1,L_1+1}\subseteq Id^{\ast }(M_{k}(F)+J)\) , then J 10 = J 01 = (0) and N is commutative.
-
(2)
Let M 2 = m(2m − 1) and L 2 = m(2m + 1) with \(m \in \mathbb {N}\) , m > 0 and let J 11≅M 2m(F) ⊗F N, as in Lemma 3 . If \(\Gamma _{M_2+1,L_2+1}\subseteq Id^{\ast }(M_{2m}(F)+J)\) , then J 10 = J 01 = (0) and N is commutative.
-
(3)
Let M 3 = L 3 = h 2 with \(h \in \mathbb {N}\) , h > 0 and let J 11≅(M h(F) ⊕ M h(F)op) ⊗F N, as in Lemma 3 . If \(\Gamma _{M_3+1,L_3+1}\subseteq Id^{\ast }((M_{h}(F)\oplus M_{h}(F)^{op})+J)\) , then J 10 = J 01 = (0) and N is commutative.
Lemma 6
-
(1)
Let M 1 = k(k + 1)∕2 and L 1 = k(k − 1)∕2 with \(k \in \mathbb {N}\) , k > 0. Then
$$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} \mathrm{exp}^\ast(\mathcal{U}^{\ast}_{M_1+1,L_1+1})=M_1+L_1=k^2=\mathrm{exp}^\ast((M_{k}(F),t)). \end{aligned}$$ -
(2)
Let M 2 = m(2m − 1) and L 2 = m(2m + 1) with \(m \in \mathbb {N}\) , m > 0. Then
$$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} \mathrm{exp}^\ast(\mathcal{U}^{\ast}_{M_2+1,L_2+1})=M_2+L_2=4m^2=\mathrm{exp}^\ast((M_{2m}(F),s)). \end{aligned}$$ -
(3)
Let M 3 = L 3 = h 2 with \(h \in \mathbb {N}\) , h > 0. Then
$$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} \mathrm{exp}^\ast(\mathcal{U}^{\ast}_{M_3+1,L_3+1})=M_3+L_3=2h^2=\mathrm{exp}^\ast((M_{h}(F)\oplus M_{h}(F)^{op},exc)). \end{aligned}$$
Proof
(1) The exponent of \(\mathcal {U}^{\ast }_{M_1+1,L_1+1}\) is equal to the exponent of some minimal variety lying in \(\mathcal {U}^{\ast }_{M_1+1,L_1+1}\) (for the definition of minimal variety see [30]). Let \(d^+:=\sum _{i=1}^n \mathrm{dim}_FA_i^+\) and \(d^-:=\sum _{i=1}^n \mathrm{dim}_FA_i^-, \) then, by Di Vincenzo and Spinelli [20, Theorem 2.1] and Lemma 2, we have that
Then
Since by Lemma 1, \(\mathrm{exp}^\ast (\mathcal {U}^{\ast }_{M_1+1,L_1+1})\leq M_1+L_1\) then the proof is completed.
(2), (3) The proof is the same of that of point (1).
Now we are able to prove the main results.
Theorem 11
Let M 1 = k(k + 1)∕2 and L 1 = k(k − 1)∕2 with \(k \in \mathbb {N}\) , k > 0. Then
where D′ is a finite dimensional ∗-algebra such that exp ∗(D′) < M 1 + L 1 . In particular
Sketch of the Proof
By the previous Lemma we have that \(\mathrm{exp}^{\ast }(\mathcal {U}^{\ast }_{M_1+1,L_1+1})=M_1+L_1\).
Let A = A + ⊕ A − be a generating finite dimensional ∗-algebra of \(\mathcal {U}^{\ast }_{M_1+1,L_1+1}\). By Corollary 2, there exist a finite number of reduced ∗-algebras B 1, …, B s and a finite dimensional ∗-algebra D′ such that \(\mathcal {U}^{\ast }_{M_1+1,L_1+1}=\mathrm{var}^\ast (A)=\mathrm{var}^\ast (B_1\oplus \cdots \oplus B_s \oplus D')\), with \(\mathrm{exp}^{\ast }(B_1)=\cdots =\text{exp}^{\ast }(B_s)= \text{exp}^{\ast }(\mathcal {U}^{\ast }_{M_1+1,L_1+1})=M_1+L_1\) and \(\text{exp}^{\ast }(D')< \text{exp}^{\ast }(\mathcal {U}^{\ast }_{M_1+1,L_1+1})= M_1+L_1.\) Then, it is enough to analyze the structure of a finite dimensional reduced ∗-algebra R such that \(\text{exp}^{\ast }(R)= M_1+L_1= \text{exp}^{\ast }(\mathcal {U}^{\ast }_{M_1+1,L_1+1})\) and \(\Gamma ^\ast _{M_1+1,L_1+1}\subseteq Id^{\ast }(R) \). Let write R = R 1 ⊕⋯ ⊕ R q + J, where J = J(R), R 1 J⋯JR q ≠ 0 and R i is isomorphic to one of the following algebras :\((M_{k_i}(F),t)\) or \((M_{2m_i}(F),s)\) or \((M_{h_i}(F)\oplus M_{h_i}(F)^{op},exc).\)
Let t 1 be the number of ∗-algebras R i of the first type, t 2 the number of ∗-algebras R i of the second type and t 3 the number of R i of the third type, with t 1 + t 2 + t 3 = q. By [18, Theorem 4.5] and [18, Proposition 4.7] there exists a ∗-algebra \(\overline {R}\) isomorphic to the ∗-algebra UT ∗(R 1, …, R q) such that \(\mathrm{exp}^{\ast }(R)=\mathrm{exp}^{\ast }(\overline {R})=\mathrm{exp}^{\ast }(UT^\ast (R_1, \ldots , R_q))\). Let observe that
Let d ± = dimF(R 1 ⊕⋯ ⊕ R q)± then
By [20, Lemma 3.2] \(\overline {R}\) does not satisfy the ∗-Capelli polynomials \(Cap^\ast _{d^++q-1}[Y;X]\) and \(Cap^\ast _{d^-+q-1}[Z;X]\), but \(\overline {R}\) satisfies \(Cap^\ast _{M_1+1}[Y;X]\) and \(Cap^\ast _{L_1+1}[Z;X]\). Thus d + + q − 1 ≤ M 1 and d − + q − 1 ≤ L 1. Hence d + + d − + 2q − 2 ≤ M 1 + L 1. Since d + + d − = M 1 + L 1 we obtain that q = t 1 + t 2 + t 3 = 1. Since t 1, t 2 and t 3 are nonnegative integers by considering all possible cases we get that t 1 = 1 and R≅M k(F) + J. From Lemmas 3 and 5 we obtain
where N ♯ is the algebra obtained from N by adjoining a unit element.
Thus var∗(R) = var∗(M k(F) ⊕ J 00) with J 00 a finite dimensional nilpotent ∗-algebra. Hence, recalling the decomposition given above, we get
where D′ is a finite dimensional ∗-algebra with exp∗(D′) < M 1 + L 1. Then
and the theorem is proved.
In a similar way we can prove the next two theorems.
Theorem 12
Let M 2 = m(2m − 1) and L 2 = m(2m + 1) with \(m \in \mathbb {N}\) , m > 0. Then
where D″ is a finite dimensional ∗-algebra such that exp ∗(D″) < M 2 + L 2 . In particular
Theorem 13
Let M 3 = L 3 = h 2 with \(h \in \mathbb {N}\) , h > 0. Then
where D‴ is a finite dimensional ∗-algebra such that exp ∗(D‴) < M 3 + L 3 . In particular
