加藤晃史 (東京大学)
On endomorphisms of the Weyl algebra
[ Abstract ]
Noncommutative geometry has revived the interest in the Weyl algebras, which are basic building blocks of quantum field theories.
The Weyl algebra An(C) is an associative algebra over C generated by pi,qi (i=1,cdots,n) with relations [pi,qj]=deltaij. Every endomorphism of An is injective since An is simple.
Dixmier (1968) initiated a systematic study of the Weyl algebra A1 and posed the following problem: Is every endomorphism of A1 an automorphism?
We give an affirmative answer to this conjecture.
