We show that the Cremona group of rank $2$ over a finite field is Jordan, and provide an upper bound for its Jordan constant which is sharp when the number of elements in the field is different from $2$, $4$, and $8$.
I explore several related routes to deriving the Jordan-algebraic structure of finite-dimensional quantum theory from more transparent operational or physical principles, mainly involving ideas about the symmetries of, and the correlations…
In 2003 Peter Cameron introduced the concept of a Jordan scheme and asked whether there exist Jordan schemes which are not symmetrisations of coherent configurations (proper Jordan schemes). The question was answered affirmatively by the…
Let $V$ be a finite-dimensional vector space over a field of characteristic two. As the main result of this paper, for every nilpotent element $e \in \mathfrak{sl}(V)$, we describe the Jordan normal form of $e$ on the…
We compute the exact values of the Jordan constants of abelian surfaces over finite fields.
We provide a direct, intersection theoretic, argument that the Jordan models of an operator of class C_{0}, of its restriction to an invariant subspace, and of its compression to the orthogonal complement, satisfy a multiplicative form of…
The question of matrix similarity is a classical one in linear algebra. For a field $\mathbb{F}$ and some positive integer $n \in \mathbb{N}$, one may consider the following problems: 1. Given two matrices $A, B \in \mathrm{GL}(n,…
Let $G$ be a nontrivial permutation group of degree $n$. If $G$ is transitive, then a theorem of Jordan states that $G$ has a derangement. Equivalently, a finite group is never the union of conjugates of a proper subgroup. If $G$ is…
A special class of Jordan algebras over a field $F$ of characteristic zero is considered. Such an algebra consists of an $r$-dimensional subspace of the vector space of all square matrices of a fixed order $n$ over $F$. It contains the…
There are Jordan analogues of annihilators in Jordan algebras which are called Jordan annihilators. The present paper is devoted to investigation of those Jordan algebras every Jordan annihilator of which is generated by an idempotent as an…
The rational cohomology of the moduli space of rank two, odd degree stable bundles over a curve (of genus g > 1) has been studied intensely in recent years and in particular the invariant subring generated by Newstead's generators alpha,…
A finitely generated quadratic module or preordering in the real polynomial ring is called stable, if it admits a certain degree bound on the sums of squares in the representation of polynomials. Stability, first defined explicitly by…
We study the conformal groups of Jordan algebras along the lines suggested by Kantor. They provide a natural generalization of the concept of conformal transformations that leave 2-angles invariant to spaces where "p-angles" can be defined.…
We describe the structure of all continuous Jordan triple endomorphisms of the set $\mathbb{P}_2$ of all positive definite $2\times 2$ matrices thus completing a recent result of ours. We also mention an application concerning sorts of…
Let $A$ be a finite-dimensional self-injective algebra over an algebraically closed field, $\mathcal{C}$ a stably quasi-serial component (i.e. its stable part is a tube) of rank $n$ of the Auslander-Reiten quiver of $A$, and $\mathcal{S}$…
Let $Q$ be a quiver of $A_n$ type and $\mathbb{K}$ be an algebraically closed field. A nilpotent endomorphism of a quiver representation induces a linear transformation of the vector space at each vertex. Generically among all nilpotent…
We present a construction of a Jordan scheme from an elementary abelian $2$-group of rank $n$ and a $\{1,-1\}$-matrix of order $2^n$ that satisfies a specified condition. We then prove that the orders of matrices with the specified…
We shall show that the stable categories of graded Cohen-Macaulay modules over quotient singularities have tilting objects. In particular, these categories are triangle equivalent to derived categories of finite dimensional algebras. Our…
We study persistence modules defined on commutative ladders. This class of persistence modules frequently appears in topological data analysis, and the theory and algorithm proposed in this paper can be applied to these practical problems.…
If $K$ is a field of finite characteristic $p$, $G$ is a cyclic group of order $q=p^\alpha$, $U$ and $W$ are indecomposable $KG$-modules with $\dim U=m$ and $\dim W=n$, and $\lambda(m,n,p)$ is a standard Jordan partition of $ m n$, we…
