We study symmetric continuous bilinear maps $V$ on a C$^*$-algebra $A$ that have the Jordan product property at a fixed element $z\in A$. We show that, whenever $A$ is a finite direct sum or a $c_0$-sum of infinite simple von Neumann…

In this article we prove that the elliptic, hyperbolic and nilpotent (or unipotent) additive (or multiplicative) Jordan components of an endomorphism $X$ (or an isomorphism $g$) of a finite dimensional vector space are given by polynomials…

In this note, we report some recent progress on the Jordan property for (birational) automorphism groups of projective varieties and compact complex varieties.

In 1878, Jordan proved that if a finite group $G$ has a faithful representation of dimension $n$ over $\mathbb{C}$, then $G$ has a normal abelian subgroup with index bounded above by a function of $n$. The same result fails if one replaces…

Let $A$ and $B$ be associative algebras over a field $F$ with {\rm char}$(F)\ne 2$. Our first main result states that if $A$ is unital and equal to its commutator ideal, then every Jordan epimorphism $\varphi:A\to B$ is the sum of a…

We classify up to isomorphism all gradings by an arbitrary group $G$ on the Lie algebras of zero-trace upper block-triangular matrices over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$. It turns out that the support of such a grading…

We prove that an analogue of Jordan's theorem on finite subgroups of general linear groups holds for the groups of biregular automorphisms of algebraic surfaces. This gives a positive answer to a question of Vladimir L. Popov.

Let $X$ be a non-uniruled compact K\"ahler space of dimension 3. We show that the group of bimeromorphic automorphisms of $X$ is Jordan. More generally, the same result holds for any compact K\"ahler space admitting a quasi-minimal model.

We initiate the study of modules of constant Jordan type for quantum complete intersections, and prove a range of basic properties. We then show that for these algebras, constant Jordan type is an invariant of Auslander-Reiten components.…

In this article, we show that every Jordan {g, h}-derivation over T_n(C) is a {g, h}-derivation under an assumption, where C is a commutative ring with unity 1 not equal to 0. We give an example of a Jordan {g, h}-derivation over T_n(C)…

We prove a version of Jordan's classification theorem for finite subgroups of $\mathrm{GL}_{n}(K)$ that is at the same time quantitatively explicit, CFSG-free, and valid for arbitrary $K$. This is the first proof to satisfy all three…

By adapting the classical proof of Jordan's theorem on finite subgroups of linear groups, we show that every approximate subgroup of the unitary group U_n(C) is almost abelian.

We prove that the group of birational automorphisms of a geometrically irreducible algebraic surface over a finite field is Jordan. We show that the analogous statement fails in higher dimensions. Finally, we prove that groups of birational…

The group-scheme of automorphisms of the ten-dimensional exceptional Kac's Jordan superalgebra is shown to be isomorphic to the semidirect product of the direct product of two copies of SL2 by the constant group scheme C2. This is used to…

For a conjugation $C$ on a separable, complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, the set $\mathcal{S}_C$ of $C$-symmetric operators on $\mathcal{H}$ forms a weakly closed, selfadjoint, Jordan operator algebra. In this paper we study…

We show that a differential algebraic group can be filtered by a finite subnormal series of differential algebraic groups such that successive quotients are almost simple, that is have no normal subgroups of the same type. We give a…

We introduce the notion of a generalized representation of a Jordan algebra with unit. The greneralized representation has the following properties: (1) Usual representations and Jacobson representations correspond to special cases of…

Let $M_n(R)$ be the algebra of all $n\times n$ matrices over a unital commutative ring $R$ with 6 invertible. We say that $A\in M_n(R)$ is a Jordan product determined point if for every $R$-module $X$ and every symmetric $R$-bilinear map…

We obtain a sufficient and necessary condition for a finite group to act effectively on a closed flat manifold. Let \ $G=E_{n}(R)$, $EU_{n}(R,\Lambda ),$ $\mathrm{SAut}(F_{n})$ or $\mathrm{SOut}(F_{n}).$ As applications, we prove that when…

Let $G$ be a symplectic group over a nonarchimedean local field of characteristic zero and odd residual characteristic. Given an irreducible cuspidal representation of G, we determine its Langlands parameter (equivalently, its Jordan blocks…
