&#039;&#039;&#039;Solve the following problems&#039;&#039;&#039; and submit them in class by October 13, 2006:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Problem 1.&#039;&#039;&#039; If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f \in {\mathcal V}_n&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;g \in {\mathcal V}_m&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f \cdot g \in {\mathcal V}_{n+m}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (as what one would expect by looking at degrees of polynomials) and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;W_{f \cdot g} = m_\mathbb{Q} \circ (W_f \otimes W_g) \circ \Delta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(W_f \otimes W_g) \circ \Delta: {\mathcal A} \rightarrow \mathbb{Q} \otimes \mathbb{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;m_\mathbb{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the multiplication of rationals. (See {{AKT-09/vps|0924-2}}, minute 36:01).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Problem 2.&#039;&#039;&#039; Let &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Theta:{\mathcal A}\to{\mathcal A}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; be the multiplication operator by the 1-chord diagram &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and let &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\partial_\theta=\frac{d}{d\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; be the adjoint of multiplication by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;W_\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;{\mathcal A}^\star&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;W_\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the obvious dual of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; in &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;{\mathcal A}^\star&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Let &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;P:{\mathcal A}\to{\mathcal A}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; be defined by&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Equation*|&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;P = \sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{(-\Theta)^n}{n!}\partial_\theta^n.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Verify the following assertions, but submit only your work on assertions 4,5,7,11:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left[\partial_\theta,\Theta\right]=1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;1:{\mathcal A}\to{\mathcal A}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the identity map and where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;[A,B]:=AB-BA&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; for any two operators.&lt;br /&gt;
# &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;P&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a degree &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; operator; that is, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\deg Pa=\deg a&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; for all &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;a\in{\mathcal A}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
# &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\partial_\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; satisfies Leibnitz&#039; law: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\partial_\theta(ab)=(\partial_\theta a)b+a(\partial_\theta b)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; for any &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;a,b\in{\mathcal A}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
# &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;P&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is an algebra morphism: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;P1=1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;P(ab)=(Pa)(Pb)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
# &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; satisfies the co-Leibnitz law: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Box\circ\Theta=(\Theta\otimes 1+1\otimes\Theta)\circ\Box&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (why does this deserve the name &amp;quot;the co-Leibnitz law&amp;quot;?).&lt;br /&gt;
# &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;P&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a co-algebra morphism: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\eta\circ P=\eta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\eta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the co-unit of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;{\mathcal A}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Box\circ P=(P\otimes P)\circ\Box&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
# &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;P\theta=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;P\langle\theta\rangle=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\langle\theta\rangle&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the ideal generated by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; in the algebra &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;{\mathcal A}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
# If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Q:{\mathcal A}\to{\mathcal A}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is defined by {{Equation*|&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Q = \sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{(-\Theta)^n}{(n+1)!}\partial_\theta^{(n+1)}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;}} then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;a=\theta Qa+Pa&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; for all &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;a\in{\mathcal A}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
# &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ker P=\langle\theta\rangle&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
# &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;P&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; descends to a Hopf algebra morphism &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;{\mathcal A}^r\to{\mathcal A}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and if &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\pi:{\mathcal A}\to{\mathcal A}^r&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the obvious projection, then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\pi\circ P&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the identity of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;{\mathcal A}^r&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. (Recall that &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;{\mathcal A}^r={\mathcal A}/\langle\theta\rangle&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;).&lt;br /&gt;
# &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;P^2=P&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Idea for a good deed.&#039;&#039;&#039;  Later than October 13, prepare a [[AKT-09/Sol1|beautiful TeX writeup]] (including the motivation and all the details) of the solution of this assignment for publication on the web. For all I know this information in this form is not available elsewhere. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Mandatory but unenforced.&#039;&#039;&#039; Find yourself in the class photo and identify yourself as explained in the [[AKT-09/Class Photo|photo page]].&lt;br /&gt;
