Nakayama automorphisms of Frobenius algebras

Abstract: We show that the Nakayama automorphism of a Frobenius algebra $R$ over a field $k$ is independent of the field (Theorem 4). Consequently, the $k$-dual functor on left $R$-modules and the bimodule isomorphism type of the $k$-dual of $R$, and hence the question of whether $R$ is a symmetric $k$-algebra, are independent of $k$. We give a purely ring-theoretic condition that is necessary and sufficient for a finite-dimensional algebra over an infinite field to be a symmetric algebra (Theorem 7). Key words: Nakay… Show more

“…For any finite-dimensional algebra R, the dual R is isomorphic as a left Rmodule to the injective hull of R/radR, so the isomorphism type of R R does not depend on the ground field k. In ( [6]) it is shown that the isomorphism type of R as an (R, R)-bimodule is also independent of k; thus we may speak of R being a Frobenius (respectively, symmetric) algebra without reference to the ground field.…”
