For a ∈ C ⁎ there are two natural evaluation maps ev a and ev a from the affine Hecke algebra H ▵ (r) C to the Hecke algebra H (r) C. The maps ev a and ev a induce evaluation maps ev ˜ a and ev ˜ a from the affine quantum Schur algebra S ▵ (n , r) C to the quantum Schur algebra S (n , r) C , respectively. In this paper we prove that the evaluation map ev ˜ a (resp. ev ˜ a) is compatible with the evaluation map Ev a (resp. Ev (− 1) n a q n ) for quantum affine sl n. Furthermore we compute the Drinfeld polynomials associated with the simple S ▵ (n , r) C -modules which come from the simple S (n , r) C -modules via the evaluation maps ev ˜ a. Then we characterize finite-dimensional irreducible S ▵ (n , r) C -modules which are irreducible as S (n , r) C -modules for n > r. As an application, we characterize finite-dimensional irreducible modules for the affine Hecke algebra H ▵ (r) C which are irreducible as modules for the Hecke algebra H (r) C.

Let F be an infinite field and M 1 , 1 (F) be the algebra of 2 × 2 matrices over F endowed with non-trivial Z 2 -grading. We consider the involutions ⁎ defined on M 1 , 1 (F) which preserve the homogeneous components of the grading. In this paper, we deal with the ⁎-superalgebra (M 1 , 1 (F) , ⁎) and determine the generators of its ideal of (Z 2 , ⁎) -identities, considering that F has characteristic zero and also, we explicitly construct the generators of its space of central (Z 2 , ⁎) -polynomials, when the characteristic of F is different from 2.

Let K be a field and let J n , k be the Jordan algebra of a degenerate symmetric bilinear form b of rank n − k over K. Then one can consider the decomposition J n , k = B n − k ⊕ D k , where B n − k represents the corresponding Jordan algebra, denoted as B n − k = K ⊕ V. In this algebra, the restriction of b on the (n − k) -dimensional subspace V is non-degenerate, while D k accounts for the degenerate part of J n , k. This paper aims to provide necessary and sufficient conditions to check if a given multilinear polynomial is an identity for J n , k. As a consequence of this result and under certain hypothesis on the base field, we exhibit a finite basis for the T -ideal of polynomial identities of J n , k. Over a field of characteristic zero, we also prove that the ideal of identities of J n , k satisfies the Specht property. Moreover, similar results are obtained for weak identities, trace identities and graded identities with a suitable Z 2 -grading as well. In all of these cases, we employ methods and results from Invariant Theory. Finally, as a consequence from the trace case, we provide a counterexample to the embedding problem given in [8] in case of infinite dimensional Jordan algebras with trace. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Let F be a field of characteristic different from 2. Small-dimensional Jordan algebras over F have been extensively studied and classified. In the present paper we show that any two-dimensional Jordan algebras over a finite field are isomorphic if and only if they satisfy the same polynomial identities (the opposite happens in the case F is infinite, even if algebraically closed). We determine a finite generating set for the T-ideal of the polynomial identities of every two-dimensional Jordan algebra when F is finite, and linear bases for the corresponding relatively free algebras are also determined.
