A non-commutative analog of a result concerning a Jacobian pair

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero and let $E=E(x,y) \in k[x,y]$. Define $t_x(E)$ to be the maximum among $0$ and the $x$-degree of $E(x,0)$. Similarly, define $t_y(E)$ to be the maximum among $...

Indecomposable injectives over Weyl algebras

Let $A=A_n(\mathbb{C})$ be the $n$-th Weyl algebra over the complex field. Then $A$ is a left Noetherian noncommutative ring. Is there a complete classification of indecomposable injective $A$-modules?...

Is $x \in A_1$ left algebraic over the subalgebra generated by $p$ and $q$, $[q,p]=1$?

Let $A_1:=A_1(x,y,k)$ be the first Weyl algebra over a field $k$ of characteristic zero, namely, the $k$-algebra generated by $x$ and $y$ with relation $yx-xy=1$. Let $f:(x,y) \mapsto (p,q)$ be a $k$-...

Nilpotent operator of the Weyl algebra

For a research project I'm currently working on, I came across the following problem: Let $A=$ $^{k <x,y> }\Big/_{(yx-xy-1)}$ be the Weyl Algebra over a field $k$ of characteristic $p$, where $...

The group of automorphisms and anti-automorphisms of the first Weyl algebra

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero, and let $A_1=A_1(k)$ be the first Weyl algebra. It is well known (first proved by Dixmier, if I am not wrong) that the group of automorphisms of $A_1$, ...

Concerning $(x,y) \mapsto (x^{\frac{n}{r}+1}y + A,\mu x^{-\frac{n}{r}}+B)$

Let $r \in \mathbb{N}-\{0\}$. Commutative case: Let $f : (x,y) \mapsto (p,q)$ be a map from $\mathbb{C}[x,y]$ to $\mathbb{C}[x^{1/r},x^{-1/r},y]$ satisfying the following two conditions: (i) $\...

A variation on Dixmier's counterexample concerning centralizers in $A_1$

This question asks the following: "Suppose $k$ is a field of characteristic zero and $P$ and $Q$ are commuting elements of the first Weyl algebra. Is it true that $P$ and $Q$ are polynomials in some ...

Invertibility under base change for the Weyl algebra instead of for the polynomial algebra

From Lemma 1.1.8, we obtain the following: Assume that $R \subseteq S$ are commutative rings and $u: R[x,y] \to R[x,y]$ is an $R$-algebra endomorphism that has an invertible Jacobian, namely, $Jac(u(x)...
