On polynomial equations over split octonions

Rings and Algebras 2025-04-02 v4

Abstract

Working over the split octonions over an algebraically closed field, we solve all polynomial equations in which all the coefficients but the constant term are scalar. As a consequence, we calculate the n-th roots of an octonion.
