Abstract

We define a category \galt\galt of g-alternative algebras over a field FF and present the category of alternative algebras \alt\alt as a full subcategory of \galt\galt; in the case chF2\ch F\neq 2, we have \alt=\galt\alt=\galt. For any g-alternative algebra AA we give a construction of a universal strict general actor \cB(A)\cB(A) of AA. We define the subset \asoci(A)\asoci(A) of AA, and show that it is a \cB(A)\cB(A)-substructure of AA. We prove that if \asoci(A)=0\asoci(A)=0, then there exists an actor of AA in \galt\galt and \act(A)=\cB(A)\act(A)=\cB(A). In particular, we obtain that if AA is anticommutative and \ann(A)=0\ann(A)=0, then there exists an actor of AA in \galt\galt; from this, under the same conditions, we deduce the existence of an actor in \alt\alt.
