Preface
The Fifth International Conference on Algebra and Algebraic Geometry (SAGA V) was held at the University of Leon (Spain) and contributors and participants originated from more than 15 European and non-European countries. As in earlier versions of these meetings in Antwerp, Santiago de Compostela, Puerto de la Cruz and Brussels, talks concentrated on algebraic and geometric subjects, with particular emphasis on intrinsic links between these domains. The main speakers were P. Ara (Barcelona), A. Bak (Bielefeld), A. Campillo (Valladolid), T. Lenagan (Edinburgh), M.P. Malliavin (Paris VI), F. Van Oystaeyen (Antwerp), A. del Rio (Murcia), M. Spivakovsky (Toronto) and V. W. Vasconcelos (Rutgers). The Scientific Committee consisted of J. L. Bueso, S. Caenepeel, J.A. Hermida, T. Sanchez-Giralda, A. Verschorcn and E. Villanueva. The Organizing Committee consisted of A. de Francisco, A. Granja and J. Susperregui. The organizers would like to thank the University of Leon, the Junta de Castilla Leon and Caja Espana for financial and logistic support. The meeting was also partially sponsored by the grants DGICYT PB95-0603-C02 and LE 36/98. Our particular thanks go to the "locals", M. Carriegos, J. Gomez, M. Lopez and C. Sanchez whose youthful enthusiasm helped to solve all practical problems, large and small during the meeting, to Stef Caenepel, whose capacities as an entertainer played a fundamental role during the meeting (as always) and, last but not least, to the secretaries of Department of Mathematics, Ana del Rio and Ana Robles. We hope the participants enjoyed this meeting as much as we did! Angel Granja Jose Angel Hermida Alain Verschoren

We study when induction functors (and their adjoints) between categories of Doi-Hopf modules and, more generally, entwined modules are separable, resp. Frobenius. We present a unified approach, leading to new proofs of old results by the authors, as well as to some new ones. Also our methods provide a categorical explanation for the relationship between separability and Frobenius properties.

INTRODUCTION
Let H be a Hopf algebra, A an F-comodule algebra, and C an if-module coalgebra. Doi [17] and Koppinen [21] independently introduced unifying Hopf modules, nowadays usually called Doi-Koppinen-Hopf modules, or Doi-Hopf modules. These are at the same time yi-modules, and C-comodules, with a certain compatibility 'EPSRC Advanced Research Fellow Research supported by the bilateral project "Hopf algebras and co-Galois theory" of the Flemish and Romanian governments ^Research supported by the bilateral project "New computational, geometric and algebraic methods applied to quantum groups and differential operators" of the Flemish and Chinese governments 2

relation. Modules, comodules, graded modules, relative Hopf modules, dimodules and Yetter-Drinfel'd modules are all special cases of Doi-Hopf modules. Properties of Doi-Hopf modules (with applications in all the above special cases) have been studied extensively in the literature. In [12], a Maschke type theorem is given, telling when the functor F forgetting the C-coaction reflects the splitness of an exact sequence, while in [13], it is studied when this functor is a Frobenius functor, this means that its right adjoint • Cg> C is at the same time a left adjoint. The two problems look very different at first sight, but the results obtained in [12] and [13] indicate a relationship between them. The main result of [12] tells us that we have a Maschke Theorem for the functor F if C is finitely generated projective and there exists an A-bimodule C-colinear map A C —-> C* A satisfying a certain normalizing condition. In [13], we have seen that F is Frobenius if C is finitely generated and projective and A C and C* A are isomorphic as Abimodules and C-comodules. This isomorphism can be described using a so-called //-integral, this is an element in A ® C satisying a certain centralizing condition. The same //-integrals appear also when one studies Maschke Theorems for G, the right adjoint of F (see [10]). This connection was not well understood at the time when [12] and [13] were written. The aim of this paper is to give a satisfactory explanation; in fact we will present a unified approach to both problems, and solve them at the same time. We will then apply the same technique for proving new Frobenius type properties: we will study when the other forgetful functor forgetting the Aaction is Frobenius, and when a smash product A#ftB is a Frobenius extension of A and B. Let us first give a brief overview of new results obtained after [12] and [13].
1) In [10] and [11] the notion of separable junctor (see [23]) is used to reprove (and generalize) the Maschke Theorem of [12]. In fact separable functors are functors for which a "functorial" type of Maschke Theorem holds. A key result due to Rafael [25] and del Rio [26] tells us when a functor having a left (resp. right) adjoint is separable: the unit (resp. the counit) of the adjunction needs a splitting (resp. a cosplitting). 2) Entwined modules introduced in [2] in the context of noncommutative geometry generalize Doi-Hopf modules. The most interesting examples of entwined modules turn out to be special cases of Doi-Hopf modules, but, on the other hand, the formalism for entwined modules is more transparent than the one for Doi-Hopf modules. Many results for Doi-Hopf modules can be generalized to entwined modules, see e.g. [3], where the results of [12] and [13] are generalized to the entwined case. 3) In [8], we look at separable and Frobenius algebras from the point of view of nonlinear equations; also here we have a connection between the two notions: both separable and Frobenius algebras can be described using normalized solutions of the so-called FS-equation. But the normalizing condition is different in the two cases. Let F : C —» T> be a covariant functor having a right adjoint G. From Rafael's Theorem, it follows that the separability of F and C is determined by the natural transformations in V = Nat(GF, lc) and W ~ Nat(lx>, FG). In the case where F

is the functor forgetting the coaction, V and W are computed in [10]. In fact V and W can also be used to decide when G is a left adjoint of F. This is what we will do in Section 4; we will find new characterizations for (F, G) to be a Frobenius pair, and we will recover the results in [13] and [3]. In Section 5, we will apply the same technique to decide when the other forgetful functor is Frobenius, and in Section 6, we will study when the smash product of two algebras A and B is a Frobenius extension of A and B. This results in necessary and sufficient conditions for the Drinfel'd double of a finite dimensional Hopf algebra H (which is a special case of the smash product (see [14]) to be a Frobenius or separable over H. We begin with a short section about separable functors and Frobenius pair of functors. We will explain our approach in the most classical situation: we consider a ring extension R —> S, and consider the restriction of scalars functor. We derive the (classical) conditions for an extension to be separable (i.e. the restriction of scalars functor is separable), split (i.e. the induction functor is separable), and Frobenius (i.e. restriction of scalars and induction functors form a Frobenius pair). We present the results in such a way that they can be extended to more general situations in the subsequent Sections. Let us remark at this point that the relationship between Frobenius extensions and separable extensions is an old problem in the literature. A classical result, due to Eilenberg and Nakayama, tells us that, over a field k, any separable algebra is Frobenius. Several generalizations of this property exist; conversely, one can give necessary and sufficient conditions for a Frobenius extension to be separable (see [19, Corollary 4.1]). For more results and a history of this problem, we refer to [1], [20] and [18]. We use the formalism of entwined modules, as this turns out to be more elegant and more general than that of the Doi-Hopf modules; several left-right conventions are possible and there exists a dictionary between them. In [12] and [13], we have worked with right-left Doi-Hopf modules; here we will work in the right-right case, mainly because the formulae then look more natural. Throughout this paper, fc is a commutative ring. We use the Sweedler-Heyneman notation for comultiplications and coactions. For the comultiplication A on a coalgebra C, we write A
( c ) = c (l) ® C ( 2 ) .
For a right C-coaction pr and a left C-coaction pl on a /c-module N, we write
pT(ri) =n [ 0 ] We omit the summation symbol ^T\

SEPARABLE FUNCTORS AND FROBENIUS PAIRS OF FUNCTORS
Let F : C —-> T> be a covariant functor. Recall [23] that F is called a separable functor if the natural transformation
induced by F splits. From [25] and [26], we recall the following characterisation in the case F has an adjoint.
Brzeziriski et al.
PROPOSITION 2.1 Let G : V -> C be a right adjoint ofF. Let 77 : lc and e : FG —> lp 6e i/ie unit and counit of the adjunction. Then 1) F is separable if and only if 'there exists v € V = Nat(G_F, lc) SMC/Z i/ia£ 1/077 = lc,
the identity natural transformation on C. 2) G is separable if and only if there exists £ 6 W = Nat(lx>, -FG) such that e o £ = ID, the identity natural transformation on C. The separability of F implies a Maschke type Theorem for F: if a morphism / e C is such that F(f) has a one-sided inverse in T>, then / has a one-sided inverse inC. A pair of adjoint functors (F, G) is called a Frobenius pair if G is not only a right adjoint, but also a left adjoint of F. The following result can be found in any book on category theory: G is a left adjoint of F if and only if there exist natural transformations v 6 V = ]^(GF, l c ) and C € W - HM(!D, -FG) such that

for all M e C, AT e P. In order to decide whether F or G is separable, or whether (.F, G) is a Frobenius pair, one has to investigate the natural transformations V — ^j|(G.F, l c ) and W = ^^(l-p,FG). It often happens that the natural transformations in V and W are determined by single maps. In this Section we illustrate this in a classical situation and recover well-known results. In the coming Sections more general situations are considered. Let i : R —» 5 be a ring homomorphism, and let F = • ®/j S : MR —» Ms be the induction functor. The restriction of scalars functor G : MS —+ MR is a right adjoint of F. The unit and counit of the adjunction are VM e MR,

Combining all these data, we obtain the following result (cf. [23] for 1) and 2) and [8] for 3))
THEOREM 2.2 Let i : R —> S be a ringhomomorphism, F the induction functor, and G the restriction of scalars functor. 1) F is separable if and only if there exists a conditional expectation, that is 17 g V\ such that Z'(l) = 1, i.e. S/R is a split extension. 2) G is separable if and only if there exists a separability idempotent, that is e G W\ such that e1e2 = 1, i.e. S/R is a separable extension. 3) (F, G) is a Frobenius pair if and only if there exist 17 6 V\ and e € W\ such that
v(el)e2 = elv(e2) = 1.

Theorem 2.2 2) explains the terminology for separable functors. Theorem 2.2 3) implies the following
COROLLARY 2.3 We use the same notation as in Theorem 2.2. If (F, G) is a Frobenius pair, then S is finitely generated and protective as a (right) R-module. PROOF.- For all s G S, we have s = se 1 z/(e 2 ) = e 1 z7(e 2 s), hence {e1,F(e2*)} is a dual basis for 5 as a right J?-module. D We have a similar property if G is separable. For the proof we refer to [24].
PROPOSITION 2.4 With the same notation as in Theorem 2.2, if S is an algebra over a commutative ring R, S is projective as an R-module and G is separable, then S is finitely generated as an R-module. Using other descriptions of V and W, we find other criteria for F and G to be separable or for (F, G) to be a Frobenius pair. Let Horn R(S, R) be the set of right -R-module homomorphisms from S to R. Hom/j(5, R) is an (R, 5)-bimodule:
(rfs)(t)=rf(ts),

ENTWINED MODULES AND DOI-HOPF MODULES
Let k be a commutative ring, A a /c-algebra, C a (flat) fc-coalgebra, and tj} : C®A —> A ® C a fc-linear map. We use the following notation, inspired by the SweedlerHeyneman notation: tfj(c®a) = a,/, ®c*. If the map ijj occurs more than once in the same expression, we also use \I> or \&' as summation indices, i.e., t/>(c ® a) = a>j( ® c

A /c-module M together with a right A-action and a right C-coaction satisfying the compatibility relation pr(ma) = miQia^, ® rn,,,
(11)
is called an entwined module. The category of entwined modules and A-linear C-
colinear maps is denoted by C = Ai(-0)5- An important class of examples comes from Doi-Koppinen-Hopf structures. A (right-right) Doi-Koppinen-Hopf structure consists of a triple (H,A,C), where H is a /c-bialgebra, A a right H-comodule algebra, and C a right //-module coalgebra. Consider the map ijj : C ® A -^> A®C given by a) = a[0] ® ca[j]. Then (A, C1, tj}) is an entwining structure, and the compatibility relation (11) takes the form pr(ma) = mjojajo] ®m[i]a[ij. (12) A /e-module with an yl-action and a C-coaction satisfying (12) is called a DoiKoppinen-Hopf module or a Doi-Hopf module. Doi-Koppinen-Hopf modules were introduced independently by Doi in [17] and Koppinen in [21]. Properties of these modules were studied extensively during the last decade, see e.g. [10], [11], [12], [13], [14], [15]. Another class of entwining structures is related to coalgebra Galois extensions, see [6] for details. Entwining structures were introduced in [7]. Many
properties of Doi-Hopf modules can be generalized to entwined modules (see e.g. [3], [4]). Although the most studied examples of entwined modules (graded modules, Yetter-Drinfel'd modules, dimodules, Hopf modules) are special cases of Doi-Hopf modules, their properties can be formulated more elegantly in the language of entwined modules. The functor F : C = A^VOS ~~> MA forgetting the C-coaction has a right adjoint G — • C. The structure on G(M) = M <S> C is given by the formulae pr(m®c) (mc)a

For later use, we list the unit and counit natural transformations describing the adjunction, p : Ic^GF and e : FG -» !MA,
pM • M->M®C, eN = IN ® sc : N ® C -^ N. In particular, A® C £ M(IJJ)A. A <S> C is also a left A- module, the left A-action is given by a(b ® c) = ab <S> c. This makes A ® C into an object of A-M^)^, the category of entwined modules with an additional left A-action that is right ^-linear and right C-colinear.
The other forgetful functor G' : M(i^)cA -> Mc has a left adjoint F' = • ® A. The structure on F'(N) — N ® A is now given by pr(n®a) ia)6

THE FUNCTOR FORGETTING THE COACTION
Let (A, C, -0) be a right-right entwining structure, F : M(I/?)A —> MA the functor forgetting the coaction, and G = • C its adjoint. In [13] necessary and sufficient conditions for (F, G) to be a Frobenius pair are given (in the Doi-Hopf case; the results were generalized to the entwining case in [3]), under the additonal assumption that C is projective as a fc-module. In this Section we give an alternative characterization that also holds if C is not necessarily projective, and we find a new proof of the results in [13] and [3]. The method of proof is the same as in Section 2, i.e., based on explicit descriptions of V and W. These descriptions can be found in [10], [11] and [4] in various degrees of generality. To keep this paper self-contained, we give a sketch of proof. We first investigate V = Na,i(GF, lc). Let V\ be the fc-module consisting of all fc-linear maps 6 : C <S> C —> A such that

Write A = (I A ® ?c} ° v and A = (EC I A) ° K- Then it follows that

proving (17). To prove (18), we first observe that C®A, GF(C®A) = c ' M(i})}% the left C*-coaction is induced by comultiplication in C in the first factor. Also I? is a rnorphism in CM(I4>)(£, and we conclude that ~D is left and right Ccolinear. Take c,d £ C, and put
Writing down the condition that 17 is left C-colinear, and then applying EC to the second factor, we find that C(i) ® ^(c(2) ® is also right C-colinear, I7(c 1 d ( 1 )) ® Vi. To show that the map a"1 defined by (20) is well-defined, take 0 e Vi, M e C, and let Z/M be given by (20). It needs to be shown that VM G C, i.e., i/^ is right A-linear and right (7-colinear, and that v is a natural transformation. The right yl-linearity follows from (17), and the right C-colinearity from (18). Given any morphism / : M —> N in C, one easily checks that for all m e M and c € C ) ® c) = /(m [0 ])0(m[i] ® c) = /(m [0 ]0(m[ 1 ] ® c)) = j(vM(m ® c)), i.e., z/ is natural. The verification that a and a~l are inverses of each other is left to the reader. D Now we give a description of W — Nat(l/^ A , FG). Let VFi = {z e A ® C \ az = za, for all a 6 A},
i.e., 2 = ^; ai N C given by (25)
PROOF.- We leave the details to the reader; the proof relies on the fact that £4 is left and right A-linear. D In [10], Propositions 4.1 and 4.2 are used to determine when the functor F and its adjoint G are separable.
THEOREM 4.3 Let F : M(ip)% -> MA be the forgetful functor, and G = • 0 C its adjoint. F is separable if and only if there exists 9 6 V\ such that
9 o AC = ECG is separable if and only if there exists z = ^; a; GI € W\ such that
PROOF.- This follows immediately from Propositions 2.1, 4.1 and 4.2

Next we show that the fact that (F, G) is a Frobenius pair is also equivalent to the existence of 6 € Vj and z G Wi, but now satisfying different normalizing conditions.
THEOREM 4.4 Let F : M(^}CA -> A^ be the forgetful functor, and G = • ® C its adjoint. Then (F, G) is a Frobenius pair if and only if there exist 9 G V\ and z = y^; ai ® ci G W\ such that the following normalizing condition holds, for all

PROOF.- Suppose that (F, G) is a Frobenius pair. Then there exist v € V and C € W such that (1-2) hold. Let 9 = a(v) € Vj, and z = ]T^ a; ® c; - /?(() 6 Wi. Then (1) can be rewritten as

(18) and (2) can be written as (29) for all n € JV e Al/i and d & C. Taking N = A and n = I , one obtains 1 d = Y
Applying EC to the second factor, one finds (26). Conversely, suppose that 9 G V\ and z G W\ satisfy (26) and (27). (27) implies (28), and (26) implies (29). Let i/ = a~l(0], C = P ~ l ( z ) - Then (1-2) hold, and (F, G) is a Frobenius pair. D In [13] it is shown that if (H, A, C) is a Doi-Hopf structure, A is faithfully flat as a fc-module, and C is projective as a fc-module, then C is finitely generated. The next proposition shows that, in fact, one does not need the assumption that C is projective.

PROOF.- 1) With notation as in Proposition 4.5, let M be the fc-module generated by the c^.. Then for all d £ C,
Since A is faithfully flat, it follows that d € M , hence M = C is finitely generated. 2) From descent theory: if a fc-module becomes finitely generated and projective after a faithfully flat commutative base extension, then it is itself finitely generated and projective. 3) Follows immediately from 1): since k is a field, A is faithfully flat as a fc-module, and C is projective as a fc-module. 4) Follows immediately from 2).

Now we want to recover [13, Theorem 2.4] and [3, Proposition 3.5]. Assume that C is finitely generated and projective as a fc-module, and let {d^d* \ i = 1, • • • ,m} be a finite dual basis for C. Then C* A can be made into an object of as follows: for all a,b,b' £ A, c* € C* ,

This can be checked directly. An explanation for this at first sight artificial structure is given in Section 6. We now give alternative descriptions for V and W. Recall from [10] that there are many possibilities to describe V. As we have seen, a

natural transformation v & V is completely determined by 9. Nevertheless, the maps z7, v_^ X or A (with notation as in Proposition 4.1) are possible alternatives. The map A: C®A®C^A induces 0 : A®C-*C*®A^ Horn (C, A). This is the map we need. At some place it is convenient to use C* A as the image space, at some other we prefer Horn (C,A). Note that (/> is given by ~4>(a c)(d) = A(d ® a ® c) = \(a^ d^ c) = a^6(d^ & c), or

Theorem 4.4 implies that (F, G) is a Frobenius pair. D REMARK 4.10 Recently M. Takeuchi observed that entwined modules can be viewed as comodules over certain corings. This observation has been exploited in [5] to derive some properties of coring counterparts of functors F and G. It is quite clear that the procedure applied in Section 2 to extension and restriction of scalars can be adapted to functors associated to corings, leading to a generalization of the results in this Section. This will be the subject of a future publication.

If B is finitely generated and projective as a /c-module, then we find using Proposition 2.6
W ^ W2 B#RA(Rom(B,A),B#RA). Theorem 2.7 now takes the following form:

Doi-Hopf Modules and Entwined Modules
THEOREM 6.2 Let (B,A,R) be a ring k, and assume that B is finitely {bi, b* | i — 1, • • • , 771} be a finite dual 1) B^RA/A is separable if and only

3) B#RA/A is Frobenius if and only if B* ® A and B#RA are isomorphic as (A,B#RA)-bimodules.
This is also equivalent to the existence of K € ¥3, e =

$(b#a)(d) = K(bdR)aR
are inverses of each other. The same method can be applied to the extension B#RA/B. There are two ways to proceed: as above, but applying the left-handed version of Theorem 2.7 (left and right separable (resp. Frobenius) extension coincide). Another possibility is to use "op" -arguments. If R : A®B —> B®A makes (B, A, R) into a factorization structure, then
R: Bop® A°p -> A°p <S> B°p makes (A°P,B°P,R) into a factorization structure. It is not hard to see that there is an algebra isomorphism
(A0v#ABop)op * B#RA. Using the left-right symmetry again, we find that B#RA/ B is Frobenius if and only if (A 0 P#^B°P)°P/B is Frobenius if and only if (Aop#RBop)/Bop is Frobenius, and we can apply Theorems 6.1 and 6.2. We invite the reader to write down explicit results. Our final aim is to link the results in this Section to the ones in Section 4, at least in the case of finitely generated, projective B. Let (A,C,if)) be a right-right entwining structure, with C finitely generated and projective, and put B = (C*)°p. Let {ci,c* i = 1, . . . , n} be a dual basis for C. There is a bijective correspondence between right-right entwining structures (A, C, tj}} and smash product structures (C*op, A,R). R and ip can be recovered from each other using the formulae
J?(a®c*) =
(c*,cf)cJ(gia V ) ,
tp(c® a) =
((c*)fl,c) Ci aR.

Moreover, there are isomorphisms of categories
and In particular, B^^A can be made into an object of ^.A/f ('!/') 5, and this explains the structure on C* ® A used in Section 4. Combining Theorems 4.9 and 6.2, we find that the forgetful functor M^}1^ —» MA and its adjoint form a Frobenius pair if and only if C* ® A and A C are isomorphic as (A, (C*) op #fl J 4)-bimodules, if and only if the extension (C*)op#RA/A is Frobenius.

INTRODUCTION
This paper has a twofold goal and a mixed nature. We propose an algorithm to compute the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension for finitely generated modules over solvable polynomial algebras and, from the theoretical point of view, we characterize these algebras within the class of all filtered algebras. When looking for a notion of dimension for modules over a non-commutative algebra A which allows its effective computation, it is quite natural to look at the existing algorithms in Commutative Algebra. It seems reasonable to try first the computation of the dimension for the algebra A itself. In the case of commutative finitely generated algebras over a field k, the problem is equivalent to the computation of the degree of the Hilbert polynomial of k [ x j , . . . , xn]/I, where / is an ideal of the commutative multivariable polynomial algebra k [ x j , . . . ,xn], and this can be done effectively by means of the computation of a Grobner basis for / (see [2, Section 9.3] and its references). These ideas can be exported from the case of cyclic k xi,... ,xn -modules to finitely generated ones (see [15, Section 4]). From this point of view, the notion of dimension for modules which extends properly to noncommutative algebras is the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension. The techniques from the commutative case can be easily adapted to compute the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension in the case of quantum affine spaces, namely, finitely generated k-algebras defined by relations of the type XjXi = qjiXiXj, for some nonzero scalars QJJ € k (see e.g., [17], where quantum affine spaces are called homogeneous solvable polynomial kalgebras). When dealing with more general non-commutative k-algebras, a fruitful idea is to consider R to be a finitely generated k-algebra, with finite-dimensional generating vector subspace V, in such a way that the graded algebra gr(R) associated to the standard filtration is a multivariable commutative polynomial algebra (see [6]) or a quantum affine space (see [12]). 33

However, a very simple example like the Jordan plane defined by two generators x,y, subject to the relation yx — xy + x2 shows that the former techniques, based on standard filtrations with (semi)commutative associated algebras, had to be improved. In the Spring of 1996, the first author presented in the SAGA4 held in Antwerp-Brussels an algorithm to compute the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension for cyclic modules over solvable polynomials algebras ([18]) with respect to the degree lexicographical order (see [4, 5]), which is applicable to some quantum groups whose generators are subject to quadratic relations, like quantum matrices, quantum symplectic space or quantum euclidean space). A similar approach appeared in the later paper [17, Section 6]. However, there is a mistake in the basic result there [17, Lemma 6.1] which is carried on the whole section. An easy counterexample to [17, Lemma 6.1] is the aforementioned Jordan plane. The algorithm given in [4, 5] was extended to finitely generated modules over solvable polynomial algebras (called there PBW algebras) with respect to a weighted graded lexicographical order in [23, 7], which allows to handle algebras with nonquadratic relations (the simplest example is given by the commutation relations yx = xy + x3). Here we show that this algorithm can be used to compute the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension of any finitely generated module over any solvable polynomial algebra, without restrictions on the given term order. During our search for that algorithm we have discovered some interesting results on filtered algebras which, in particular, locate the solvable polynomial algebras (or, equivalently, the PBW algebras) in the theory of noetherian rings: they are precisely those algebras having a filtration (in most cases, non standard) whose associated graded algebras are graded quantum spaces. We also show that these algebras can always be re-filtered by finite-dimensional vector subspaces keeping a quantum space as associated graded algebra. This allows to use the well-known graded-filtered techniques to obtain that any solvable polynomial algebra R is an Auslander-regular noetherian algebra with exact and finitely partitive Gelfand-Kirillov dimension. Moreover, R is a Cohen-Macaulay algebra which satisfies the Nullstellensatz.

ADMISSIBLE ORDERS IN MONOIDEALS AND STABLE SUBSETS
Let N denote the additive monoid of all positive integers (including the neutral element 0). Let n be a strictly positive integer. We consider Nra as additive monoid with the sum defined componentwise. Let 61,... ,en be the canonical basis of this free abelian monoid.
DEFINITION 2.1 An admissible order < on (N™, +) is a total order such that, (a) 0 = ( 0 , . . . , 0) ^ a for every a e N".
(b) For all a, (3,7 e N™ with a ^ f3 it follows 0 + 7 ^ / 3 + 7. REMARK 2.2 By Dickson's Lemma (see, e.g., [2, Corollary 4.48]), admissible orders on Nn are good orders (i.e., any non-empty subset of N™ has a first element). By ^iex we denote the lexicographical order with € j ~ N, consider its dimension or growth degree denned as (3)

which, of course, need not be finite. Some basic properties of this invariant can be found in [24], [27, Chapter 8] or [20]. DEFINITION 2.6 For any stable subset E C N">( m ) and any weight vector w with strictly positive integer components, we define the Hilbert function HF^ : N —» N of E relative to w by putting HF£(s) = card{(a, i) e N n >( m > \E
\a w ^ s}
for every s € N. In the case that w = (1, . . . , 1) we shall use the notation HF# for the Hilbert function.
In the proof of the next Lemma we shall use the notation |(o;,z)| w = |a w. By N™ we denote the subset of N" consisting of those vectors with all their components strictly positive.
LEMMA 2.7 Let E C N"'(m' be a stable subset and let w € N™ . Then d(HF£) = d(HFE). PROOF. Consider w = max{wj, . . . ,u>n}. If |(a,i)| < s, then |(a,z)|a, < ws and, thus, HFE(S) < HF^(ws). Moreover, it follows from
that \(a,i)\u < s implies |(a,i)| < s, whence HF%(s) < HFE(s).

By Lemma 2.7, the following definition makes sense.
DEFINITION 2.8 The dimension of a non-empty stable subset E of N n '( m ) is denned as dim(£) = d(HF^), for any w e N£. The study of the Hilbert function of a stable subset can be reduced to monoideals, as the following result shows.

The equality follows from the fact that FR = {FsR}s^o is a filtration and Xi 6 -FUi-R for z = 1 , . . . , s. In particular, we have proved that xi,..., xn generate R as an algebra over k. For i,j such that 1 ^ i < j ^ s, there is a non-zero scalar qji such that yjj/i = qjiyiyj. Therefore,

REMARK 3.7 If the filtration FR in Proposition 3.6 is assumed to be finite dimensional then, necessarily, the vector u has all its components strictly positive.
The following result, although not explicitly stated there, was first proved by V. Weispfenning in [33, proof of Theorem 1]. We include a slightly different proof here.
PROPOSITION 3.8 Let R be a k-algebra finitely generated by x i , . . . , x n and assume that there are non zero qji € k, polynomials pji € R and an admissible order ^ on N™ such that the following ^-bounded quantum relations are satisfied for 1 ^ i < j ^ n with exp(pjj) -< €j + €j
Then there is w = (wi, . . . , wn) & N™ such that \exp(pji)\w < Wi+Wj. In particular, if R = k{zi, . . . , xn; Q, ^} is a PBW algebra, then R = k{xi, . . . , xn; Q, ^w} is a PBW algebra. PROOF. Let i,j be such that 1 ^ i < j «, a + /3. But this follows from the definition of ^w. 2. For each s Jj 0, the s-th homogeneous component of the graded algebra gr(jR) is generated as a k-vector space by xa + F^.1R, with |o: w = n, and we know that xa + F^R = ya, where y > = X i + F^^R for i = 1, . . . , s. Therefore, yi , . . . , yn are homogeneous generators for gr(R). 3. We have the following computation
yjyi = (Xj + F^.^RKxi + F^R) = x,x{ + F^+W]_,R = (qjiX.Xj + F^.^.^R) + (Pji + F^.^.^R) = q^y-j + %

Moreover, since N(hji) C N(pji) we get that exp(hji) ^w exp(pji) -<w e* + €j. 4. We just need to prove that the monomials ya are k-linearly independent. Since grw(R) is a graded algebra, it suffices to prove that every linear combination of homogeneous monomials of the form Xliaj =scaya = 0 is necessarily trivial. But this is a consequence of the linear independence of the monomials xa , since we have

3. Let R — k{xi, . . . ,xn; Q, ^w} be a PBW algebra. It is easy to see that the filtration FWR is standard if and only if w = (1, . . . , 1), i.e., -^w is just the degree lexicographical order. ^ 4. There is an analog to Proposition 3. 10. (4) for the Rees algebra R associated to R = k{xi, . . . ,xn; Q, ^<w}, which was proved in [9, Teorema 2.6.3]. Thus, R = k[t,Xi, . . . ,xn;Q,^w] is a PBW algebra, where it is a new central variable, Xj = tWiXi for every 1 ^ i ^ n, w = (l,to), and the new ^-bounded quantum relations are

The foregoing propositions can be restated in a more compact form which is interesting from a theoretical point of view. We give two theorems. The first one explains, from the point of view of algebras given by generators and relations, when it is possible to find a filtration with semi-commutative associated graded algebra.

THEOREM 3.12 The following conditions are equivalent for a k~algebra R. (i) R is filtered by a finite-dimensional filtration with semi-commutative associated graded algebra. (ii) R is filtered with semi-commutative associated graded algebra. (in) R satisfies a set Q of ^.-bounded quantum relations for some admissible order X. (iv) R satisfies a set Q of ^<w-bounded quantum relations for some vector w € N™.
PROOF,
(i) =^> (ii) is obvious.
(ii) => (iii) is given by Proposition 3.6.(1). (iii) => (iv). This is given by Proposition 3.8 (iv) =>• (i). By Proposition 3.8, w can be assumed to be such that \exp(pji)\w < Wi + Wj for every 1 ^ i < j Q such that, for every chain M = M0 3 MI D • • • D Mm
with GKdim(Mi/Mi + i) = GKdim(M), one has m < n. R has the radical property if every element in the Jacobson radical is nilpotent. R has the endomorphism property over k if for each simple left R-module M, End(M) is algebraic over k. If both properties are satisfied by R, then R satisfies the Nullstellensatz over k. A finitely generated left or right .R-module M satisfies the Auslander condition if for every integer n and every submodule TV of Ext^(M, R), we have Ext^(Ar, R) = 0 for every i < n. A noetherian ring with finite injective dimension is said to be Auslander-Gorenstein if every finitely generated left or right .R-module satisfies the Auslander condition. If in addition R has finite global homological dimension, we say that R is Auslander regular. Finally, if M is a left or right .R-module, the grade number of M is defined as
j ( M ) = inf{i I Ext*fl(M,.R) ^ 0} e N U {+00} The noetherian k-algebra R is Cohen-Macaulay if for all non-zero finitely generated left or right .R-modules M,
j ( M ) + GKdim(M) = GKdim(R) THEOREM 4.1 Let R be a k-algebra satisfying a set of bounded quantum relations. Then the following statements hold. (1) The algebra R is left and right noetherian.
(2) The Gelfand-Kirillov dimension is exact on short exact sequences of finitely generated left or right R-modules.
(3) The algebra R is left and right finitely partitive. (4) The Krull dimension of every finitely generated R-module is bounded by its Gelfand-Kirillov dimension. (5) The algebra R satisfies the Nullstellensatz over k.
// R is any PBW algebra, then, in addition to the foregoing properties, R is an Auslander-regular and Cohen-Macaulay algebra.
PROOF. By Theorem 3.12, R has a finite-dimensional filtration with semicommutative associated graded algebra. The noetherianity of R follows from [25, 1.6.9]. The exactness of Gelfand-Kirillov dimension on short exact sequences of finitely generated left or right .R-modules follows from [32, 4.4 Theoreme] or [26, 3.8]. R is left and right finitely partitive by [16, Theorem 2.9]. The bound on the Krull dimension can be obtained from [25, 8.3.18] (see [31] for the original citation). The Nullstellensatz follows from [26, 3.8]. Let R now be a PBW algebra. Then R has a finite-dimensional filtration such that gr(.R) is an affine quantum space. Using [22,

3.6 Theorem] (see also [13, Theorem 4.2]), it is easy to see that gr(/?) is AuslanderGorenstein, so by [3, 3.9 Theorem] R is Auslander-Gorenstein. Moreover, by [25, 7.5.3] (see also [14]) gr(/?) has global finite dimension, so R is Auslander regular by [25, 7.6.18] (see also [30]). Finally, by [3, 3.8 Theorem] and [25, 8.6.5], R is Cohen-Macaulay if and only if gr(R) is Cohen-Macaulay, but this follows from [22, 5.10]

The following are examples of PBW algebras and, hence, they enjoy the properties listed in Theorem 4.1. In each case, we include an explicit vector weight w with strictly positive integer components in such a way that the filtration given in Proposition 3.10 yields a graded quantum affine space as associated graded algebra. • Enveloping algebras of finite-dimensional Lie algebras. Let 0 be a finite-dimensional Lie k-algebra with basis xi,... ,xn. Then the enveloping algebra U(Q) = k{xi,..., x n ; Q, ^.w} is a PBW algebra, where
