Although the Cayley-Dickson algebras are twisted group algebras, little attention has been paid to the nature of the Cayley-Dickson twist. One reason is that the twist appears to be highly chaotic and there are other interesting things…
We introduce what we call "alternative twisted tensor products" for not necessarily associative algebras, as a common generalization of several different constructions: the Cayley-Dickson process, the Clifford process and the twisted tensor…
New families of eight-dimensional real division algebras with large derivation algebra are presented: We generalize the classical Cayley-Dickson doubling process starting with a unital algebra with involution over a field F by allowing the…
We introduce the notion of a crossed product of an algebra by a coalgebra $C$, which generalises the notion of a crossed product by a bialgebra well-studied in the theory of Hopf algebras. The result of such a crossed product is an algebra…
We present a compact mnemonic device for computing the product of two (split) octonions written in Cayley--Dickson form q+l p with q,p in H. The rule appears as a simple (R+L) pattern of right-ordered and left-ordered (quaternionic)…
It is well-known that the tensor product of two bialgebras constitutes the binary product in the category of cocommutative bialgebras and morphisms of bialgebras between them. In this paper, we extend this result to triangular bialgebras…
The Cayley-Dickson loop Q_n is the multiplicative closure of basic elements of the algebra constructed by n applications of the Cayley-Dickson doubling process (the first few examples of such algebras are real numbers, complex numbers,…
Given a $2^N$-dimensional Cayley-Dickson algebra, where $3 \leq N \leq 6$, we first observe that the multiplication table of its imaginary units $e_a$, $1 \leq a \leq 2^N -1$, is encoded in the properties of the projective space PG$(N-1,2)$…
In this paper, we define and prove basic properties of complement polyhedral product spaces, dual complexes and polyhedral product complexes. Then we compute the universal algebra of polyhedral product complexes under certain split…
We adapt the algorithm of Kolesnikov and Pozhidaev, which converts a polynomial identity for algebras into the corresponding identities for dialgebras, to the Cayley-Dickson doubling process. We obtain a generalization of this process to…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a Leibniz algebra and $E$ a vector space containing $\mathfrak{g}$ as a subspace. All Leibniz algebra structures on $E$ containing $\mathfrak{g}$ as a subalgebra are explicitly described and classified by two…
For a perfect Lie algebra $\mathfrak{h}$ we classify all Lie algebras containing $\mathfrak{h}$ as a subalgebra of codimension $1$. The automorphism groups of such Lie algebras are fully determined as subgroups of the semidirect product…
Introducing products between multivectors of Cl(0,7) and octonions, resulting in an octonion, and leading to the non-associative standard octonionic product in a particular case, we generalize the octonionic X-product, associated with the…
In this paper, we define and prove basic properties of complement polyhedral product spaces, dual complexes and polyhedral join complexes. Then we compute the universal algebra of polyhedral join complexes under certain split conditions and…
Cayley-Dickson algebras are an infinite sequence of non-associative algebras starting with the reals, complexes, quaternions, and octonions. We study the zero-divisors in the higher Cayley-Dickson algebras. In particular, we show that the…
Let $n=\prod_p p^{\nu_p(n)}$ denote the canonical factorization of $n\in \N$. The binomial convolution of arithmetical functions $f$ and $g$ is defined as $(f\circ g)(n)=\sum_{d\mid n} (\prod_p \binom{\nu_p(n)}{\nu_p(d)}) f(d)g(n/d),$ where…
We define a special matrix multiplication among a special subset of $2N\x 2N$ matrices, and study the resulting (non-associative) algebras and their subalgebras. We derive the conditions under which these algebras become alternative…
We consider a polynomial version of the Cayley numbers. Namely, we define the ring of Cayley polynomials in terms of generators and relations in the category of alternative algebras. The ring turns out to be an octonion algebra over an…
Motivated by the construction of Steenrod cup-$i$ products in the singular cochain algebra of a space and in the algebra of non-commutative differential forms, we define a category of binomial cup-one differential graded algebras over the…
The dimension algebra of graded groups is introduced. With the help of known geometric results of extension theory that algebra induces all known results of the cohomological dimension theory. Elements of the algebra are equivalence classes…
