Prime Quotients of Jordan Systems and Lie Algebras

We show that, unlike alternative algebras, prime quotients of a nondegenerate Jordan system or a Lie algebra need not be nondegenerate, even if the original Jordan system is primitive, or the Lie algebra is strongly prime, both with nonzero simple hearts. Nevertheless, for Jordan systems and Lie algebras directly linked to associative systems, we prove that even semiprime quotients are necessarily nondegenerate.     

Representations of (α, β, γ) triple system

We introduce a notion of (α, β, γ) triple system which generalizes the familiar generalized Jordan triple system. We then discuss its realization by some bilinear algebras and vice versa. We also give a characterization of the structurable algebra of Allison in terms of (?1, 1) Freudenthal–Kantor triple system by imposing some additional triple product constraints.     

The Jordan plane over a field of positive characteristic

The primary spectrum and the automorphism group of the Jordan plane over a field of nonzero characteristic are described. The problem of extending a prime ideal of the center of the Jordan plane to a primary ideal of the entire algebra is considered.     

The structure of algebraic jordan algebras without nonzero nilpotent elements

An algebraic, linear Jordan algebra without nonzero nil-potent elements is proved to be a subdirect sum of prime Jordan algebras each of which has finite capacity or contains simple subalgebras of arbitrary capacity. If in addition the base field has nonzero character-istic or the algebra satisfies a polynomial identity, then each of the summands is determined to be simple of finite capacity. Further, it is proved that algebraic, PI Jordan algebras without nonzero nilpotent elements are locally finite in the sense that any finitely generated subalgebra has finite capacity.

A Note on Multiplicative Primeness of Prime Degenerate Jordan Algebras

We show the primeness of the multiplication algebra of the two prime degenerate Jordan algebras constructed by Skosyrskiĭ.     

Jordan centroids

Central simple triples are important for the classification of prime Jordan triples of Clifford type in arbitrary characterstics. For triples and pairs (or even for unital Jordan algebras of characteristic 2), there is no workable notion of center, and the concept of “central simple” system must be understood as “centroid-simple”. The centroid of a Jordan system (algebra, triple, or pair) consists of the “natural” scalars for that system: the largest unital, commutative ring Γ such that the system can be considered as a quadratic Jordan system over Γ. In this paper we will characterize the centroids of the basic simple Jordan algebras, triples, and pairs. (Consideration of the tangled ample outer ideals in Jordan algebras of quadratic forms will be left to a separate paper.) A powerful tool is the Eigenvalue Lemma, that a centroidal transformation on a prime system over φ which has an eigenvalue α in φ must actually be scalar multiplication by α. An important consequence is that a prime system over φ with reduced elements P_xJ = φx (or which grows reduced elements under controlled conditions) must already be central, Γ = φ.     

The Jordan socle and finitary Lie algebras

In this paper we introduce the notion of Jordan socle for nondegenerate Lie algebras, which extends the definition of socle given in [A. Fernández López et al., 3-Graded Lie algebras with Jordan finiteness conditions, Comm. Algebra, in press] for 3-graded Lie algebras. Any nondegenerate Lie algebra with essential Jordan socle is an essential subdirect product of strongly prime ones having nonzero Jordan socle. These last algebras are described, up to exceptional cases, in terms of simple Lie algebras of finite rank operators and their algebras of derivations. When working with Lie algebras which are infinite dimensional over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, the exceptions disappear and the algebras of derivations are computed.     

Representation type of Jordan algebras

The problem of classification of Jordan bimodules over (non-semisimple) finite dimensional Jordan algebras with respect to their representation type is considered. The notions of diagram of a Jordan algebra and of Jordan tensor algebra of a bimodule are introduced and a mapping Qui is constructed which associates to the diagram of a Jordan algebra J the quiver of its universal associative enveloping algebra S(J). The main results are concerned with Jordan algebras of semi-matrix type, that is, algebras whose semi-simple component is a direct sum of Jordan matrix algebras. In this case, criterion of finiteness and tameness for one-sided representations are obtained, in terms of diagram and mapping Qui, for Jordan tensor algebras and for algebras with radical square equals to 0.     

Gelfand-Kirillov dimension in Jordan Algebras

In this paper we study Gelfand-Kirillov dimension in Jordan algebras. In particular we will relate Gelfand-Kirillov (GK for short) dimensions of a special Jordan algebra and its associative enveloping algebra and also the GK dimension of a Jordan algebra and the GK dimension of its universal multiplicative enveloping algebra.

     

NOETHERIAN UNIQUE FACTORIZATION SEMIGROUP ALGEBRAS

We investigate when semigroup algebras K[S] of submonoids S of torsion free polycyclic-by-finite groups G are Noetherian unique factorization rings in the sense of Chatters and Jordan, that is, every prime ideal contains a principal height one prime ideal. For the group algebra K[G] this problem was solved by Brown.     

Synaptic algebras

A synaptic algebra is both a special Jordan algebra and a spectral order-unit normed space satisfying certain natural conditions suggested by the partially ordered Jordan algebra of bounded Hermitian operators on a Hilbert space. The adjective “synaptic”, borrowed from biology, is meant to suggest that such an algebra coherently “ties together” the notions of a Jordan algebra, a spectral order-unit normed space, a convex effect algebra, and an orthomodular lattice.     

Solvable Jordan algebras of compact operators

It is proved that a Jordan algebra of compact operators which is closed is either an Engel Jordan algebra, or contains a nonzero finite rank operator; Moreover, it is showed that any solvable Jordan algebra of compact operators on an infinite dimensional Banach space is triangularizable.     

Jordan bialgebras and their relation to Lie bialgebras

We develop the notion of Jordan bialgebras and study the way in which such are related to Lie bialgebras. In particular, it is shown that if a Lie algebra L(J) obtained from a Jordan algebra J by applying the Kantor-Koecher-Tits construction admits the structure of a Lie bialgebra, under some natural constraints, then, J permits the structure of a Jordan algebra.

J-dendriform algebras

In this paper, we introduce a notion of J-dendriform algebra with two operations as a Jordan algebraic analogue of a dendriform algebra such that the anticommutator of the sum of the two operations is a Jordan algebra. A dendriform algebra is a J-dendriform algebra. Moreover, J-dendriform algebras fit into a commutative diagram which extends the relationships among associative, Lie, and Jordan algebras. Their relations with some structures such as Rota-Baxter operators, classical Yang-Baxter equation, and bilinear forms are given.     

Algebras of Quotients of Jordan–Lie Algebras

In this article, we introduce the notion of algebra of quotients of a Jordan–Lie algebra. Properties such as semiprimeness or primeness can be lifted from a Jordan–Lie algebra to its algebras of quotients. Finally, we construct a maximal algebra of quotients for every semiprime Jordan–Lie algebra.     

Jordan generalized derivations on triangular algebras

Let 𝒜 be a unital algebra and let ? be a unitary 𝒜-bimodule. We consider Jordan generalized derivations mapping from 𝒜 into ?. Our results on unitary algebras are applied to triangular algebras. In particular, we prove that any Jordan generalized derivation of a triangular algebra is a generalized derivation.
