We introduce a linear algebraic object called a bidiagonal triad. A bidiagonal triad is a modification of the previously studied and similarly defined concept of bidiagonal triple. A bidiagonal triad and a bidiagonal triple both consist of…

We introduce a linear algebraic object called a bidiagonal pair. Roughly speaking, a bidiagonal pair is a pair of diagonalizable linear transformations on a finite-dimensional vector space, each of which acts in a bidiagonal fashion on the…

There is a concept in linear algebra called a tridiagonal pair. The concept was motivated by the theory of $Q$-polynomial distance-regular graphs. We give a tutorial introduction to tridiagonal pairs, working with a special case as a…

Motivated by investigations of the tridiagonal pairs of linear transformations, we introduce the augmented tridiagonal algebra ${\mathcal T}_q$. This is an infinite-dimensional associative ${\mathbb C}$-algebra with 1. We classify the…

A square matrix is said to be circular bidiagonal whenever (i) each nonzero entry is on the diagonal, or the subdiagonal, or in the top-right corner; (ii) each subdiagonal entry is nonzero, and the entry in the top-right corner is nonzero.…

Three kinds of universal central extension are considered for a perfect Lie algebra. More precisely, one can consider such a Lie algebra as a Lie triple system, or a Leibniz algebra and construct appropriate central extensions. We show that…

We construct the quaternion algebra [10] "geometrically" by a three dimensional analogue of the classic two dimensional geometric description of the complex field. The algebraic description of the multiplication operation in three…

Trialitarian triples are triples of central simple algebras of degree 8 with orthogonal involution that provide a convenient structure for the representation of trialitarian algebraic groups as automorphism groups. This paper explicitly…
