It is known that there are Lie algebras with non-semigroup gradings, i.e. such that the binary operation on the grading set is not associative. We provide a similar example in the class of associative algebras.
Ramsey algebras is an attempt to investigate Ramsey spaces generated by algebras in a purely combinatorial fashion. Previous studies have focused on the basic properties of Ramsey algebras and the study of a few specific examples. In this…
Poisson algebra is usually defined to be a commutative algebra together with a Lie bracket, and these operations are required to satisfy the Leibniz rule. We describe Poisson structures in terms of a single bilinear operation. This enables…
We announce a new approach to the octonions as quasiassociative algebras. We strip out the categorical and quasi-quantum group considerations of our longer paper and present here (without proof) some of the more algebraic conclusions
An associative central simple algebra is a form of matrices, because a maximal \'{e}tale subalgebra acts on the algebra faithfully by left and right multiplication. In an attempt to extract and isolate the full potential of this point of…
We determine the structure of the semisimple group algebra of certain groups over the rationals and over those finite fields where the Wedderburn decompositions have the least number of simple components. We apply our work to obtain similar…
We study a numerical semigroup ring as an algebra over another numerical semigroup ring. The complete intersection property of numerical semigroup algebras is investigated using factorizations of monomials into minimal ones. The goal is to…
We investigate the problem of defining group or loop structures on spheres, where by ''sphere'' we mean the level set q(x) = c of a general K-valued quadratic form q, for an invertible scalar c. When K is a field and q non-degenerate, then…
Ramsey algebras are algebras that induce Ramsey spaces, which are generalizations of the Ellentuck space and Milliken's space. Previous work suggests a possible local version of Ramsey algebras induced by infinite sequences. Hence, we…
Numerical semigroup rings are investigated from the relative viewpoint. It is known that algebraic properties such as singularities of a numerical semigroup ring are properties of a flat numerical semigroup algebra. In this paper, we show…
A non-associative algebra over a field $\mathbb{K}$ is a $\mathbb{K}$-vector space $A$ equipped with a bilinear operation \[ {A\times A\to A\colon\; (x,y)\mapsto x\cdot y=xy}. \] The collection of all non-associative algebras over…
A semi-Peano algebra is an algebra for which each operation is injective, and the images of the operations are pairwise disjoint. The most straightforward non-trivial kind of finitely presented semi-Peano algebra are algebras with a single…
Finite groups are of the greatest importance in science. Loops are a simple generalization of finite groups: they share all the group axioms except for the requirement that the binary operation be associative. The least loops that are not…
This paper is a sequel to arXiv:2307.13358 and arXiv:2308.16090. A construction associating a semialgebra with an algebra, subalgebra, and a coalgebra dual to the subalgebra played a central role in the author's book arXiv:0708.3398. In…
We show that the octonions are a twisting of the group algebra of Z_2 x Z_2 x Z_2 in the quasitensor category of representations of a quasi-Hopf algebra associated to a group 3-cocycle. We consider general quasi-associative algebras of this…
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…
For an arbitrary octonion algebra, we determine all subalgebras. It turns out that every subalgebra of dimension less than four is associative, while every subalgebra of dimension greater than four is not associative. In any split octonion…
Using elementary linear algebra, this paper clarifies and proves some concepts about a recently introduced octonion-like associative division algebra over R. This octonion-like algebra is actually the same as the split-biquaternion algebra,…
A unitary representation of a, possibly infinite dimensional, Lie group G is called semi-bounded if the corresponding operators id\pi(x) from the derived representations are uniformly bounded from above on some non-empty open subset of the…
Recently we have reformulated the octonions as quasissociative algebras (quasialgebras) living in a symmetric monoidal category. In this note we provide further examples of quasialgebras, namely ones where the nonassociativity is induced by…
