In this note, we shall give an improved lower bound for the argument of a power of a given algebraic number which has absolute value one but is not a root of unity.

D. Abramovich found an error in the singularity analysis in the first posting of this paper affecting one formula (Thanks Dan).The error has been corrected. Only the arithmetic genus formula has changed. The geometric genus and all the…

A Jordan loop is a commutative loop satisfying the Jordan identity $(x^2 y) x = x^2 (y x)$. We establish several identities involving powers in Jordan loops and show that there is no nonassociative Jordan loop of order $9$.

We study distributions on a Euclidean Jordan algebra V with values in a finite dimensional representation space for the identity component G of the structure group of V and homogeneous equivariance condition. We show that such distributions…

We announce here a number of results concerning representation theory of the algebra $R=k<x,y>/ (xy-yx-y^2)$, known as Jordan plane (or Jordan algebra). We consider the question on 'classification' of finite-dimensional modules over the…

In this note I discuss some aspects of a formulation of quantum mechanics based entirely on the Jordan algebra of observables. After reviewing some facts of the formulation in the \CS -approach I present a Jordan-algebraic Hilbert space…

We study the general Jordan type of standard graded Artinian Gorenstein algebras, it is a finer invariant than Weak and Strong Lefschetz properties for those algebras. We prove that their Jordan types are determined by the rank of certain…

I.P. Shestakov constructed an example of a unital simple special Jordan superalgebra over the field of real numbers. It turned out to be a subsuperalgebra of the Jordan superalgebra of vector type, but not isomorphic to a superalgebra of…

This work concerns in part the construction of conformal Jordan cells of infinite rank and their reductions to conformal Jordan cells of finite rank. It is also discussed how a procedure similar to Lie algebra contractions may reduce a…

We introduce and investigate new classes of Jordan algebras which are close to but wider than Rickart and Baer Jordan algebras considered in our previous paper. Such Jordan algebras are called RJ- and BJ-algebras respectively. Criterions…

We illustrate how Jordan algebras can provide a framework for the interpretation of certain classes of orthogonal polynomials. The big -1 Jacobi polynomials are eigenfunctions of a first order operator of Dunkl type. We consider an algebra…

We first establish several general properties of modality of algebraic group actions. In particular, we introduce the notion of a modality-regular action and prove that every visible action is modality-regular. Then, using these results, we…

We prove a result on the existence of linear forms of a given Diophantine type.

In this paper we explore graded algebras of quotients of Lie algebras with special emphasis on the 3-graded case and answer some natural questions concerning its relation to maximal Jordan systems of quotients.

We develop a cohomology theory for Jordan triples, including the infinite dimensional ones, by means of the cohomology of TKK Lie algebras. This enables us to apply Lie cohomological results to the setting of Jordan triples. Some…

Using geometric approach we formulate quantum theory in terms of Jordan algebras. We analyze the notion of (quasi)particle (=elementary excitation of translation-invariant stationary state) and the scattering of (quasi)particles in this…

For any quantum group of finite ADE type, we prove a new formula for the standard bilinear form evaluated at monomials. Combining this with ideas from the Lusztig-Shoji algorithm, we obtain a new algorithm that computes the canonical basis.…

We show that for finite n at least 3, every first-order axiomatisation of the varieties of representable n-dimensional cylindric algebras, diagonal-free cylindric algebras, polyadic algebras, and polyadic equality algebras contains an…

Let $A$ be a unital algebra over a field $F$ with $\operatorname*{char} (F)\neq2$. In this paper we introduce a new concept of a generalized Jordan derivation, covering Jordan centralizers and Jordan derivations, as follows: a linear map…

Jordan operator algebras are norm-closed spaces of operators on a Hilbert space which are closed under the Jordan product. The discovery of the present paper is that there exists a huge and tractable theory of possibly nonselfadjoint Jordan…
