    The aim of this paper is to contribute more examples and classification results of finite pointed quasi-quantum groups within the quiver framework initiated in \cite{qha1, qha2}. The focus is put on finite dimensional graded Majid algebras generated by group-like elements and two skew-primitive elements which are mutually skew-commutative. Such quasi-quantum groups are associated to quasi-quantum planes in the sense of nonassociative geomertry \cite{m1, m2}. As an application, we obtain an explicit classification of graded pointed Majid algebras with abelian coradical of dimension p3p^3 and p4p^4 for any prime number p.p.Comment: 12 pages; Minor revision according to the referee's suggestio

    Generalized Clifford Algebras as Algebras in Suitable Symmetric Linear Gr-Categories

    Full text link
    By viewing Clifford algebras as algebras in some suitable symmetric Gr-categories, Albuquerque and Majid were able to give a new derivation of some well known results about Clifford algebras and to generalize them. Along the same line, Bulacu observed that Clifford algebras are weak Hopf algebras in the aforementioned categories and obtained other interesting properties. The aim of this paper is to study generalized Clifford algebras in a similar manner and extend the results of Albuquerque, Majid and Bulacu to the generalized setting. In particular, by taking full advantage of the gauge transformations in symmetric linear Gr-categories, we derive the decomposition theorem and provide categorical weak Hopf structures for generalized Clifford algebras in a conceptual and simpler manner

    Recruitment of cyanobacteria from the sediments in the eutrophic Shanzi Reservoir

    This study investigated the impact of four environmental factors on the recruitment of cyanobacteria from bottom sediments in the eutrophic Shanzi Reservoir. Temperature and light were identified as the key determinants for the recruitment of Microcystis and Oscillatoria. Cyanobacteria became dominant at higher temperature (20°C) and light intensity (2000 lx) and Microcystis and Oscillatoria were the major species. Detailed recruitment simulation undertaken with the respective gradients of temperature and light suggested that both Microcystis and Oscillatoria are temperature sensitive and that their critical temperature point was 10°C. However, distinct light impacts were observed only on Microcystis. The recruitment of Oscillatoria was light independent, whereas Microcystis had a positive relationship with light intensity. Physical disturbance promoted Microcystis recruitment and also affected the structure of the recruited cyanobacterial community at the water–sediment interface, based on quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and phylogenetic analysis
