Axial algebras of Monster type are a class of non-associative algebras which generalise the Griess algebra, whose automorphism group is the largest sporadic simple group, the Monster. The $2$-generated algebras, which are the building…
Axial algebras of Monster type are a class of commutative algebras generated by special idempotents called axes. Some motivating examples of these algebras are the Griess algebra and the Norton-Sakuma algebras, relating to the Monster…
An axial algebra is a commutative non-associative algebra generated by axes, that is, primitive, semisimple idempotents whose eigenvectors multiply according to a certain fusion law. The Griess algebra, whose automorphism group is the…
We provide the basic setup for the project, initiated by Felix Rehren, aiming at classifying all 2-generated axial algebras of Monster type $(\alpha,\beta)$ over a field $\mathbb F$. Using this, we first show that every such algebra has…
Axial algebras are non-associative algebras generated by semisimple idempotents, known as axes, that all obey a fusion rule. Axial algebras were introduced by Hall, Rehren and Shpectorov as a generalisation of the axioms of Majorana theory,…
We consider Majorana algebras generated by three Majorana axes $a_0$, $a_1$ and $a_2$ such that $a_0$ and $a_1$ generate a dihedral algebra of type 2A. We show that such an algebra must occur as a Majorana representation of one of 27…
This paper is a continuation of our paper math.QA/0403010 at which several coset subalgebras of the lattice VOA $V_{\sqrt{2}E_8}$ were constructed and the relationship between such algebras with the famous McKay observation on the extended…
Axial algebras are a class of commutative non-associative algebras generated by idempotents, called axes, with adjoint action semi-simple and satisfying a prescribed fusion law. Axial algebras were introduced by Hall, Rehren and Shpectorov…
In this paper we prove that $2$-generated primitive axial algebras of Monster type $(2\beta, \beta)$ over a ring $R$ in which $2$ and $\beta$ are invertible can be generated as $R$-module by $8$ vectors. We then completely classify…
Ivanov introduced the shape of a Majorana algebra as a record of the $2$-generated subalgebras arising in that algebra. As a broad generalisation of this concept and to free it from the ambient algebra, we introduce the concept of an axet…
A Majorana algebra is a commutative nonassociative real algebra generated by a finite set of idempotents, called Majorana axes, that satisfy some of the properties of the $2A$-axes of the Monster Griess algebra. The term was introduced by…
Axial algebras are a class of commutative algebras generated by idempotents, with adjoint action semisimple and satisfying a prescribed fusion law. Axial algebras were introduced by Hall, Rehren, and Shpectorov in 2015 as a broad…
Axial algebras are a recently introduced class of non-associative algebra, with a naturally associated group, which generalise the Griess algebra and some key features of the moonshine VOA. Sakuma's Theorem classifies the eight…
We study McKay's observation on the Monster simple group, which relates the 2A-involutions of the Monster simple group to the extended E_8 diagram, using the theory of vertex operator algebras (VOAs). We first consider the sublattices L of…
Axial algebras are a class of non-associative algebra with a strong link to finite (especially simple) groups which have recently received much attention. Of primary interest are the axial algebras of Monster type $(\alpha, \beta)$, of…
In the first half of this paper, we define axial algebras: nonassociative commutative algebras generated by axes, that is, semisimple idempotents---the prototypical example of which is Griess' algebra [C85] for the Monster group. When…
Axial algebras are a class of commutative non-associative algebras which have a natural group of automorphisms, called the Miyamoto group. The motivating example is the Griess algebra which has the Monster sporadic simple group as its…
Recently Takahiro Yabe gave an almost complete classification of primitive symmetric $2$-generated axial algebras of Monster type. In this note, we construct a new infinite-dimensional primitive $2$-generated symmetric axial algebra of…
We introduce decomposition algebras as a natural generalization of axial algebras, Majorana algebras and the Griess algebra. They remedy three limitations of axial algebras: (1) They separate fusion laws from specific values in a field,…
Majorana theory was introduced by A. A. Ivanov as the axiomatization of certain properties of the 2A-axes of the Griess algebra. Since its inception, Majorana theory has proved to be a remarkable tool with which to study objects related to…
