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 study finite-dimensional commutative algebras, which satisfy the Jacobi identity. Such algebras are Jordan algebras. We describe some of their properties and give a classification in dimensions $n<7$ over algebraically closed fields of…

We investigate when the group $SL_n(\mathcal{O}(X))$ of holomorphic maps from a Stein space $X$ to $SL_n (\C)$ has Kazhdan's property (T) for $n\ge 3$. This provides a new class of examples of non-locally compact groups having Kazhdan's…

We prove an algebraic decomposition theorem for the unit group $\mathrm{GL}(R)$ of an arbitrary non-discrete irreducible, continuous ring $R$ (in von Neumann's sense), which entails that every element of $\mathrm{GL}(R)$ is both a product…

Let ${\mathcal{T}}$ be a triangular algebra. We say that $D=\{D_{n}: n\in N\}\subseteq L({\mathcal{T}})$ is a Jordan higher derivable mapping at $G$ if $D_{n}(ST+TS)=\sum_{i+j=n}(D_{i}(S)D_{j}(T)+D_{i}(T)D_{j}(S))$ for any $S,T\in…

We compute minimal sets of generators for the S_n-modules (n <= 4) of multilinear polynomial identities of arity n satisfied by the Jordan product and the Jordan diproduct (resp. pre-Jordan product) in every triassociative (resp.…

Let $Aut_{alg}(X)$ be the subgroup of the group of regular automorphisms $Aut(X)$ of an affine algebraic variety $X$ generated by all connected algebraic subgroups. We prove that if $dim X \ge 2$ and if $Aut_{alg}(X)$ is rich enough,…

We prove that every surjective unital linear mapping which preserves invertible elements from a Banach algebra onto a C*-algebra carrying a faithful tracial state is a Jordan homomorphism thus generalising Aupetit's 1998 result for finite…

We consider subalgebras $\mathcal{A}$ of the algebra $M_n$ of $n \times n$ complex matrices that contain all diagonal matrices, known in the literature as the structural matrix algebras (SMAs). Let $\mathcal{A} \subseteq M_n$ be an…

It is an old and challenging topic to investigate for which discrete groups G the full group C*-algebra C*(G) is residually finite-dimensional (RFD). In particular not much is known about how the RFD property behaves under fundamental…

A group $G$ has property (VRC) if every cyclic subgroup is a virtual retract. This property is stable under many standard group-theoretic constructions and is enjoyed by all virtually special groups (in the sense of Haglund and Wise). In…

Let $\g$ be a finite dimensional Lie algebra over a field $k$ of characteristic zero. An element $x$ of $\g$ is said to have an \emph{abstract Jordan-Chevalley decomposition} if there exist unique $s,n\in\g$ such that $x=s+n$, $[s,n]=0$ and…

The fixed-point index of a homeomorphism of Jordan curves measures the number of fixed-points, with multiplicity, of the extension of the homeomorphism to the full Jordan domains in question. The now-classical Circle Index Lemma says that…

Suppose that R is an ordered ring, G_n(R) is a subsemigroup of $GL_n(R)$, consisting of all matrices with nonnegative elements. A.V. Mikhalev and M.A. Shatalova described all automorphisms of G_n(R), where R is a linearly ordered skewfield…

Let $X$ be a locally finite partially ordered set (poset), $K$ a field of characteristic not 2, and $I(X,K)$ the incidence algebra over $K$. In this paper, we prove that every Jordan $*$-derivation of $I(X,K)$ is an inner $*$-derivation and…

In this paper, we consider the natural complex Hamiltonian systems with homogeneous potential $V(q)$, $q\in\C^n$, of degree $k\in\Z^\star$. The known results of Morales and Ramis give necessary conditions for the complete integrability of…

Moens proved that a finite-dimensional Lie algebra over field of characteristic zero is nilpotent if and only if it has an invertible Leibniz-derivation. In this article we prove the analogous results for finite-dimensional Malcev, Jordan,…

Let $G$ be a finite undirected multigraph with no self-loops. The Jacobian $\operatorname{Jac}(G)$ is a finite abelian group associated with $G$ whose cardinality is equal to the number of spanning trees of $G$. There are only a finite…

We obtain the generic real Jordan canonical forms for $n\times n$ matrices with real entries. More precisely, we prove that the set of $n\times n$ real matrices is the union of the closures of $\lfloor n/2\rfloor+1$ sets, which are called…

We characterize completely bounded normal Jordan $*$-homomorphisms acting on von Neumann algebras. We also characterize completely positive isometries acting on noncommutative $\mathrm{L}^p$-spaces.
