In the paper "Is there a Jordan geometry underlying quantum physics?" (Int. J. Theor. Phys., to appear; arXiv:0801.3069 [math-ph]), generalized projective geometries have been proposed as a framework for a geometric formulation of Quantum…
We provide a formal definition and study the basic properties of partially ordered chains (POC). These systems were proposed to model textures in image processing and to represent independence relations between random variables in…
We study a notion of "width" for Jordan curves in $\mathbb{CP}^1$, paying special attention to the class of quasicircles. The width of a Jordan curve is defined in terms of the geometry of its convex hull in hyperbolic three-space. A…
We show that the concept of topological order, introduced to describe ordered quantum systems which cannot be classified by broken symmetries, also applies to classical systems. Starting from a specific example, we show how to use pure…
We prove that an analogue of Jordan's theorem on finite subgroups of general linear groups holds for the groups of biregular automorphisms of elliptic ruled surfaces. This gives a positive answer to a question of Vladimir L. Popov.
We continue the study undertaken in \cite{DV} of the exceptional Jordan algebra $J = J_3^8$ as (part of) the finite-dimensional quantum algebra in an almost classical space-time approach to particle physics. Along with reviewing known…
The goal of this paper is to present an algebraic approach to the basic results of the theory of linear recurrence relations. This approach is based on the ideas from the theory of representations of one endomorphisms (a special case of…
We classify simple finite Jordan conformal superalgebras and establish preliminary results for the classification of simple finite Jordan pseudoalgebras.
Several classes of baric algebras studied by different authors will be given a unified treatment, using the technique of gametization introduced by Mallol et al. Many of these algebras will be shown to be either Jordan algebras or to be…
We classify, up to isomorphism, the $\mathbb{Z}_pG$-modules of rank $1$ (i.e., the quotients of $\mathbb{Z}_pG$) for $G$ cyclic of order $p$, where $\mathbb{Z}_p$ is the ring of $p$-adic integers. This allows us in particular to determine…
We study maps between positive definite or positive semidefinite cones of unital $C^*$-algebras. We describe surjective maps that preserve (1) the norm of the quotient or multiplication of elements; (2) the spectrum of the quotient or…
In various subjects including mathematics, one can hope to use mathematical thinking well when the right kinds of algebraic structure to consider can be discovered or spotted. Therefore, it would help to understand kinds of algebraic…
Cyclically ordered graphs, or cogs, sit between abstract graphs and cellularly embedded graphs. They arise naturally in topological graph theory, knot theory, and mathematical biology. We develop a formal theory of cogs and establish a…
Having in mind applications to particle physics we develop the differential calculus over Jordan algebras and the theory of connections on Jordan modules. In particular we focus on differential calculus over the exceptional Jordan algebra…
In this paper we study division algebras over the function fields of curves over $\Q_p$. The first and main tool is to view these fields as function fields over nonsingular $S$ which are projective of relative dimension 1 over the $p$ adic…
We study the symmetries of generalized spacetimes and corresponding phase spaces defined by Jordan algebras of degree three. The generic Jordan family of formally real Jordan algebras of degree three describe extensions of the Minkowskian…
According to a general definition of discrete curves, surfaces, and manifolds. This paper focuses on the Jordan curve theorem in 2D discrete spaces. The Jordan curve theorem says that a (simply) closed curve separates a simply connected…
We study distributions on a Euclidean Jordan algebra V with values in a finite dimensional representation space for the identity component G of the structure group of V and homogeneous equivariance condition. We show that such distributions…
This work discusses an approach to solving geometric construction problems in which the given figure is included in a set ordered by construction steps. The flow of information is carried through the chain, allowing the original problem to…
We develop basic notions and methods of algebraic geometry over the algebraic objects called hyperrings. Roughly speaking, hyperrings generalize rings in such a way that an addition is `multi-valued'. This paper largely consisits of two…
