On the solvability of graded Novikov algebras

Abstract

We show that the right ideal of a Novikov algebra generated by the square of a right nilpotent subalgebra is nilpotent. We also prove that a $G$-graded Novikov algebra $N$ over a field $K$ with solvable $0$-component $N_0$ is solvable, where $G$ is a finite additive abelean group and the characteristic of $K$ does not divide the order of the group $G$. We also show that any Novikov algebra $N$ with a finite solvable group of automorphisms $G$ is solvable if the algebra of invariants $N^G$ is solvable.
