Let $G$ be an algebraic group and let $X$ be a smooth $G$-variety with two orbits: an open orbit and a a closed orbit of codimension $1$. We give an algebraic description of the category of $G$-equivariant vector bundles on $X$ under a mild…

Algebraic cycles on complex projective space P(V) are known to have beautiful and surprising properties. Therefore, when V carries a real or quaternionic structure, it is natural to ask for the properties of the groups of real or…

For an affine spherical homogeneous space G/H of a connected semisimple algebraic group G, we consider the factorization morphism by the action on G/H of a maximal unipotent subgroup of G. We prove that this morphism is equidimensional if…

We introduce and investigate a one parameter family of quantum spaces invariant under the left (right) coactions of the group-like element ${\cal T}_{h}^{(j=1)}$ of the Jordanian function algebra $Fun_{h}(SL(2))$. These spaces may be…

Let $A$ be a commutative, non-associative algebra over a field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic $\ne 2$. A half-axis in $A$ is an idempotent $e\in A$ such that $e$ satisfies the Peirce multiplication rules in a Jordan algebra, and, in…

The Jordan type of an Artinian algebra is the Jordan block partition associated to multiplication by a generic element of the maximal ideal. We study the Jordan type for Artinian Gorenstein (AG) local algebras A, and the interaction of…

Physical theories can be characterized in terms of their state spaces and their evolutive equations. The kinematical structure and the dynamical structure of finite dimensional quantum theory are, in light of the Choi-Jamio{\l}kowski…

Given a fixed quadratic extension K of Q, we consider the distribution of elements in K of norm 1 (denoted N). When K is an imaginary quadratic extension, N is naturally embedded in the unit circle in C and we show that it is…

We give a complete characterization of invariant integrable complex structures on principal bundles defined over hermitian symmetric spaces, using the Jordan algebraic approach for the curvature computations. In view of possible…

We give a classification of Jordan-Chevalley decompositions of an endomorphism of a finite-dimensional vector space over a not necessarily perfect field, i.e. additive decompositions into commuting semisimple and nilpotent endomorphisms.

Consider a finite-dimensional real vector space equipped with a finite group acting unitarily on it. We address the general problem of constructing Euclidean stable embeddings of the quotient space of orbits. Our approach is based on…

We describe the complete set of pairwise non-isomorphic irreducible modules S(a) over the algebra R given by the defining relation xy-yx=yy, and the rule how they could be glued to indecomposables. Namely, we show that Ext_k^1(S(a),S(b))=0,…

We show that the distribution of elements $H$ in the Hessian matrices associated with amorphous materials exhibit singularities $P(H) \sim {\lvert H \rvert}^{\gamma}$ with an exponent $\gamma < 0$, as $\lvert H \rvert \to 0$. We exploit the…

These notes were written following lectures I had the pleasure of giving on this subject at Keio University, during November and December 2004. The first part is about new applications of Jordan algebras to the geometry of Hermitian…

It is well-known that a quiver Q of type A_n is representation-finite, and that its indecomposable representations are thin (all Jordan-Hoelder multiplicities are 0 or 1). By now, various methods of proof are known. The aim of this note is…

This note adds to the recent spate of derivations of the probabilistic apparatus of finite-dimensional quantum theory from various axiomatic packages. We offer two different axiomatic packages that lead easily to the Jordan algebraic…

Freudenthal algebras over a field are basically the same as Jordan algebras of degree $3$ remaining simple under all base field extensions. These algebras are intimately linked, via their automorphism groups and structure groups, to simple…

By exploiting the Jordan pair structure of U-duality Lie algebras in D = 3 and the relation to the super-Ehlers symmetry in D = 5, we elucidate the massless multiplet structure of the spectrum of a broad class of D = 5 supergravity…

It is shown that the finite-dimensional simple representations of the super Jordan plane $B$ are one-dimensional. The indecomposable representations of dimension $2$ and $3$ of $B$ are classified. Two families of indecomposable…
