We show that each half-automorphism of a finite automorphic Moufang loop is trivial. In general this is not true for finite left automorphic Moufang loops and for finite automorphic loops.

Concept of a birepresentation for the Moufang loops is elaborated.

Code loops were introduced by R. L. Griess. R.L. Griess and T. Hsu gave methods to construct the corresponding code loop from any given doubly even binary code; both these methods used some kind of induction. In this paper, we present a…

Using groups with triality we obtain some general multiplication formulas in Moufang loops, construct Moufang extensions of abelian groups, and describe the structure of minimal extensions for finite simple Moufang loops over abelian…

An A-loop is a loop in which every inner mapping is an automorphism. We settle a problem which had been open since 1956 by showing that every diassociative A-loop is Moufang.

These notes accompany a series of three lectures on automorphic loops to be delivered by the author at Workshops Loops '15 (Ohrid, Macedonia, 2015). Automorphic loops are loops in which all inner mappings are automorphisms. The first paper…

We first find the combinatorial degree of any map $f:V\to F$ where $F$ is a finite field and $V$ is a finite-dimensional vector space over $F$. We then simplify and generalize a certain construction due to Chein and Goodaire that was used…

We show how to obtain all nonassociative Moufang loops of order less than 64 and 4262 nonassociative Moufang loops of order 64 in a unified way. We conjecture that there are no other nonassociative Moufang loops of order 64. The main idea…

We calculate mod-p cohomology of extended powers, and their group completions which are free infinite loop spaces. We consider the cohomology of all extended powers of a space together and identify a Hopf ring structure with divided powers…

We study abelian-by-cyclic Moufang loops. We construct all split $3$-divisible abelian-by-cyclic Moufang loops from so-called Moufang permutations on abelian groups $(X,+)$, which are permutations that deviate from an automorphism of…

Let $L$ be a Moufang loop which is centrally nilpotent of class 2. We first show that the nuclearly-derived subloop (normal associator subloop) $L^*$ of $L$ has exponent dividing 6. It follows that $L_p$ (the subloop of $L$ of elements of…

For any code loop $L$, we prove that the half-automorphism group of $L$ is the product of the automorphism group of $L$ by an elementary abelian $2-$group consisting of all half-automorphisms that acts as the identity on a fixed basis.…

Loop invariants play a very important role in proving correctness of programs. In this paper, we address the problem of generating invariants of polynomial loop programs. We present a new approach, for generating polynomial equation…

We present an elementary proof that the nonassociative simple Moufang loops over finite prime fields are generated by three elements. In the last section, we conclude that integral Cayley numbers of unit norm are generated multiplicatively…

We investigate the relation between the structure of a Moufang loop and its inner mapping group. Moufang loops of odd order with commuting inner mappings have nilpotency class at most two. $6$-divisible Moufang loops with commuting inner…

A loop identity is of Bol-Moufang type if two of its three variables occur once on each side, the third variable occurs twice on each side, and the order in which the variables appear on both sides is the same, viz. $((xy)x)z=x(y(xz))$.…

In this article we study the automorphism groups of binary cyclic codes. In particular, we provide explicit constructions for codes whose automorphism groups can be described as (a) direct products of two symmetric groups or (b) iterated…

This paper investigates the hull codes of free linear codes over a non-unital ring $ E= \langle \kappa,\tau \mid 2 \kappa =2 \tau=0,~ \kappa^2=\kappa,~ \tau^2=\tau,~ \kappa \tau=\kappa,~ \tau \kappa=\tau \rangle$. Initially, we examine the…

Generalized Lie-Cartan theorem for linear birepresentations of an analytic Moufang loop is considered. The commutation relations of the generators of the birepresentation were found. In particular, the Lie algebra of the multiplication…

Nonassociative finite simple Moufang loops are exactly the loops constructed by Paige from Zorn vector matrix algebras. We prove this result anew, using geometric loop theory. In order to make the paper accessible to a broader audience, we…
