【 摘 要 】

Let G be a group of order k. We consider the algebra M-k (C) of k by k matrices over the complex numbers and view it as a crossed product with respect to G by embedding G in the symmetric group S-k via the regular representation and embedding S-k in M-k(C) in the usual way. This induces a natural G-grading on M-k (C) which we call a crossed product grading. We study the graded *-identities for M-k(C) equipped with such a crossed-product grading and the transpose involution. To each multilinear monomial in the free graded algebra with involution we associate a directed labeled graph. Use of these graphs allows us to produce a set of generators for the (T, *)-ideal of identities. It also leads to new proofs of the results of Kostant and Rowen on the standard identities satisfied by skew matrices. Finally we determine an asymptotic formula for the *-graded codimension of M-k(C). (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
