A representation of finite-dimensional probabilistic models in terms of formally real Jordan algebras is obtained, in a strikingly easy way, from simple assumptions. This provides a framework in which real, complex and quaternionic quantum…
The maximal subalgebras of the finite dimensional simple special Jordan superalgebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 are studied. This is a continuation of a previous paper by the same authors about maximal…
Three-dimensional conformal theories with six supersymmetries and SU(4) R-symmetry describing stacks of M2-branes are here proposed to be related to generalized Jordan triple systems. Writing the four-index structure constants in an…
We compute $\delta$-derivations of simple Jordan algebras with values in irreducible bimodules. They turn out to be either ordinary derivations ($\delta = 1$), or scalar multiples of the identity map ($\delta = \frac 12$). This can be…
A pseudo-Euclidean non-associative algebra $(\mathfrak{g}, \bullet)$ is a real algebra of finite dimension that has a metric, i.e., a bilinear, symmetric, and non-degenerate form $\langle\;\rangle$. The metric is considered…
The goal of this note is to show that Jordan algebras and superalgebras provide an elegant and concise language for formulating quantum mechanical problems with inherent (super)conformal symmetry. The superconformal symmetries of the…
This paper is devoted to the description of complex finite-dimensional algebras of level two. We obtain the classification of algebras of level two in the varieties of Jordan, Lie and associative algebras.

We study Lie algebras endowed with an abelian complex structure which admit a symplectic form compatible with the complex structure. We prove that each of those Lie algebras is completely determined by a pair (U,H) where U is a complex…
In this survey paper we give an overview over constructions of geometries associated to Jordan structures (algebras, triple systems and pairs), featuring analogs of these constructions with the Lie functor on the one hand and with the…
We define symmetric spaces in arbitrary dimension and over arbitrary non-discrete topological fields $\K$, and we construct manifolds and symmetric spaces associated to topological continuous quasi-inverse Jordan pairs and -triple systems.…
If V is a simple complex euclidean Jordan algebra and G the subgroup of GL(V) fixing the determinant of V, we give a unified description of the invariant algebras C[pV]^G, for p not greater than three.
In this paper, we study the variety $Jor_{3}$ of three-dimensional Jordan algebras over the field of real numbers. We establish the list of $26$ non-isomorphic Jordan algebras and describe the irreducible components of $Jor_{3}$ proving…
We establish a natural correspondence between (the equivalence classes of) cubic solutions of an eiconal type equation and (the isomorphy classes of) cubic Jordan algebras.
The purpose of this paper is to introduce Hom-alternative algebras and Hom-Jordan algebras. We discuss some of their properties and provide construction procedures using ordinary alternative algebras or Jordan algebras. Also, we show that a…
Using Bessel-Muirhead system, we can express the K-bessel function defined on a Jordan algebra as linear combination of the J-solutions. We determine explicitly the coefficients when the rank of this Jordan algebra is three after a…
The classical Tits construction provides models of the exceptional simple Lie algebras in terms of a unital composition algebra and a degree three simple Jordan algebra. A couple of actions of the symmetric group of degree 4 on this…
We study the conformal groups of Jordan algebras along the lines suggested by Kantor. They provide a natural generalization of the concept of conformal transformations that leave 2-angles invariant to spaces where "p-angles" can be defined.…
In this paper, we mainly study the derivation algebras of semi-simple Jordan algebras over a field of characteristic $0$ and give sufficient and necessary conditions that the derivation algebras of them are simple. As an application, we…
