Simple Special Jordan Superalgebras with Associative Even Part

We describe the simple special unital Jordan superalgebras with associative even part A whose odd part M is an associative module over A. We prove that each of these superalgebras, not isomorphic to a superalgebra of nondegenerate bilinear superform, is isomorphically embedded into a twisted Jordan superalgebra of vector type. We exhibit a new example of a simple special Jordan superalgebra. We also describe the superalgebras such that M [A,M] 0.     

Structure of some Unital Simple Jordan Superalgebras with Associative Even Part

Studying the unital simple Jordan superalgebras with associative even part, we describe the unital simple Jordan superalgebras such that every pair of even elements induces the zero derivation and every pair of two odd elements induces the zero derivation of the even part. We show that such a superalgebra is either a superalgebra of nondegenerate bilinear form over a field or a four-dimensional simple Jordan superalgebra.     

Simple Decompositions of Simple Special Jordan Superalgebras

We classify decompositions of simple special finite-dimensional Jordan superalgebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero into the sum of two proper simple subsuperalgebras.     

Dual Coalgebras of Jordan Bialgebras and Superalgebras

W. Michaelis showed for Lie bialgebras that the dual coalgebra of a Lie algebra is a Lie bialgebra. In the present article we study an analogous question in the case of Jordan bialgebras. We prove that a simple infinite-dimensional Jordan superalgebra of vector type possesses a nonzero dual coalgebra. Thereby, we demonstrate that the hypothesis formulated by W. Michaelis for Lie coalgebras fails in the case of Jordan supercoalgebras.     

Group gradings on the Lie and Jordan superalgebras Q(n)

We classify gradings by arbitrary abelian groups on the classical simple Lie and Jordan superalgebras Q(n), n ≥ 2, over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2 (and not dividing n + 1 in the Lie case): Fine gradings up to equivalence and G-gradings, for a fixed group G, up to isomorphism.     

Derivations of the Even Part of Finite-Dimensional Simple Modular Lie Superalgebra M

Let F be the underlying base field of characteristic p > 3 and denote by M the even part of the finite-dimensional simple modular Lie superalgebra M. In this paper, the generator sets of the Lie algebra M which will be heavily used to consider the derivation algebra Der(M) are given. Furthermore, the derivation algebra of M is determined by reducing derivations and a torus of M, i.e.,As a result, the derivation algebra of the even part of M does not equal the even part of the derivation superalgebra of M.     

Projective Completions of Jordan Pairs,Part II: Manifold Structures and Symmetric Spaces

We define symmetric spaces in arbitrary dimension and over arbitrary non-discrete topological fields , and we construct manifolds and symmetric spaces associated to topological continuous quasi-inverse Jordan pairs and -triple systems. This class of spaces, called smooth generalized projective geometries, generalizes the well-known (finite or infinite-dimensional) bounded symmetric domains as well as their ‘compact-like’ duals. An interpretation of such geometries as models of Quantum Mechanics is proposed, and particular attention is paid to geometries that might be considered as ‘standard models’ – they are associated to associative continuous inverse algebras and to Jordan algebras of hermitian elements in such an algebra.Mathematics Subject Classiffications (2000). primary: 17C36, 46H70, 17C65; secondary: 17C30, 17C90     

Quasiassociative Algebras with Simple Artinian Null Part

We prove that any quasiassociative algebra with simple Artinian null part is isomorphic to a unique matrix algebra M_n(), where is a quasiassociative division algebra.     

Gröbner–Shirshov Bases for Universal Enveloping Conformal Algebras of Simple Conformal Lie Superalgebras of Type WN

For simple conformal Lie superalgebras of type W_N, Gröbner–Shirshov bases of their universal enveloping associative conformal algebras are found. The universal enveloping algebras considered correspond to a minimal locality function for which there is an injective embedding.     

Representation Rings of Lie Superalgebras

Given a Lie superalgebra , we introduce several variants of the representation ring, built as subrings and quotients of the ring of virtual -supermodules, up to (even) isomorphisms. In particular, we consider the ideal of virtual -supermodules isomorphic to their own parity reversals, as well as an equivariant K-theoretic super representation ring on which the parity reversal operator takes the class of a virtual -supermodule to its negative. We also construct representation groups built from ungraded -modules, as well as degree-shifted representation groups using Clifford modules. The full super representation ring , including all degree shifts, is then a -graded ring in the complex case and a -graded ring in the real case. Our primary result is a six-term periodic exact sequence relating the rings , and . We first establish a version of it working over an arbitrary (not necessarily algebraically closed) field of characteristic 0. In the complex case, this six-term periodic long exact sequence splits into two three-term sequences, which gives us additional insight into the structure of the complex super representation ring . In the real case, we obtain the expected 24-term version, as well as a surprising six-term version, of this periodic exact sequence. (Received: October 2004)

, this coincides with the notion of a Jordan ideal.) We study conditions under which Jordan submodules are subbimodules. General criteria are given in the purely algebraic situation as well as for the case of Banach bimodules over Banach algebras. We also consider symmetrically normed Jordan submodules over C*-algebras. It turns out that there exist C*-algebras in which not all Jordan ideals are ideals.

     

Constructions for Octonion and Exceptional Jordan Algebras

In this note we reverse theusual process of constructing the Lie algebras of types G ₂and F ₄ as algebras of derivations of the splitoctonions or the exceptional Jordan algebra and instead beginwith their Dynkin diagrams and then construct the algebras togetherwith an action of the Lie algebras and associated Chevalley groups.This is shown to be a variation on a general construction ofall standard modules for simple Lie algebras and it is well suitedfor use in computational algebra systems. All the structure constantswhich occur are integral and hence the construction specialisesto all fields, without restriction on the characteristic, avoidingthe usual problems with characteristics 2 and 3.     

Embedding an AH-Algebra into a Simple C*-Algebra with Prescribed KK-Data

Let X be a connected finite CW complex. We show that, given a positive homomorphism Hom(K _*(C(X)), K _*(A)) with [1 _C(X)][1 _A ], where A is a unital separable simple C ^*-algebra with real rank zero, stable rank one and weakly unperforated K ₀(A), there exists a homomorphism h: C(X)A such that h induces . We also prove a structure result for unital separable simple C ^*-algebras A with real rank zero, stable rank one and weakly unperforated K ₀(A), namely, there exists a simple AH-algebra of real rank zero contained in A which determines the K-theory of A.     

Positive Principal Minor Property of Linear Transformations on Euclidean Jordan Algebras

In this article, we study the positive principal minor (PPM) property of linear transformations on Euclidean Jordan algebras. Specifically, we give a characterization of the PPM property on the Lorentz space ℒ ⁿ and show that the PPM property implies the Q property. We also study a matrix-induced transformation on ℒ ⁿ .

Standard Envelopes of Commutative Triple Systems

Under certain constraints on the characteristic of a field , the commutative standard enveloping q-algebra >B of a commutative triple system A over is defined. It is proved that(1) if the algebra B is simple, then the system A is simple;(2) if the system A is simple, then B either is simple or decomposes into the direct sum of two isomorphic simple subalgebras (as of ideals).     

The Nilpotency Properties of the Leibniz Algebra Mn(C)D

We study the nilpotency properties of the Leibniz algebras constructed by means of D-mappings on the algebra of complex square matrices M _n (C). In particular, we obtain a criterion for nilpotency of these algebras in terms of the properties of a D-mapping. We prove also that the Leibniz algebras under consideration cannot be simple.     

Bimodule Complexes via Strong Homotopy Actions

We present a new and explicit method for lifting a tilting complex to a bimodule complex. The key ingredient of our method is the notion of a strong homotopy action in the sense of Stasheff.     

Holland’s theorem for pseudo-effect algebras

We give two variations of the Holland representation theorem for ℓ-groups and of its generalization of Glass for directed interpolation po-groups as groups of automorphisms of a linearly ordered set or of an antilattice, respectively. We show that every pseudo-effect algebra with some kind of the Riesz decomposition property as well as any pseudo MV-algebra can be represented as a pseudo-effect algebra or as a pseudo MV-algebra of automorphisms of some antilattice or of some linearly ordered set.     

Isomorphism Classes of A-Hypergeometric Systems

Given a finite set A of integral vectors and a parameter vector, Gel'fand, Kapranov, and Zelevinskii defined a system of differential equations, called an A-hypergeometric (or a GKZ hypergeometric) system. Classifying the parameters according to the D-isomorphism classes of their corresponding A-hypergeometric systems is one of the most fundamental problems in the theory. In this paper we give a combinatorial answer for the problem under the assumption that the finite set A lies in a hyperplane off the origin, and illustrate it in two particularly simple cases: the normal case and the monomial curve case.
