Let An be an n-dimensional algebra with zero multiplication over a field K of characteristic 0. Then its universal (multiplicative) enveloping algebra Un in the variety of left-symmetric algebras is a homogeneous quadratic algebra generated by 2n elements l1,…,ln,r1,…,rn, which contains both the polynomial algebra Ln=K[l1,…,ln] and the free associative algebra Rn=K〈r1,…,rn〉. We show that the automorphism groups of the polynomial algebra Ln and the algebra Un are isomorphic for all n≥2, based on a detailed analysis of locally nilpotent derivations. In contrast, we show that this isomorphism does not hold for n=1, and we provide a complete description of all automorphisms and locally nilpotent derivations of U1.
