The Lie algebra of skew-symmetric elements and its application in the theory of Jordan algebras

We prove that the Lie algebra of skew-symmetric elements of the free associative algebra of rank 2 with respect to the standard involution is generated as a module by the elements a, b] and a, b]³, where a and b are Jordan polynomials. Using this result we prove that the Lie algebra of Jordan derivations of the free Jordan algebra of rank 2 is generated as a characteristic F-module by two derivations. We show that the Jordan commutator s-identities follow from the Glennie-Shestakov s-identity.
