We introduce fusion algebras with not necessarily positive structure constants and without identity element. We prove that they are semisimple when tensored with $\mathbb{C}$ and that their characters satisfy orthogonality relations. Then…

It is proved that the additive group of every semidistributive nearring $R$ with an identity is abelian and if R has no elements of order $2$, then the nearring $R$ actually is an associative ring.

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and let $I$ be an ideal of $R$. Let $R\Join I$ be the subring of $R\times R$ consisting of the elements $(r,r+i)$ for $r\in R$ and $i\in I$. We study the diameter and girth of the zero-divisor…

Let $R$ be a ring with unity. The cozero-divisor graph of a ring $R$ is an undirected simple graph whose vertices are the set of all non-zero and non-unit elements of $R$ and two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $x…

Let $A, B$ be invertible, non-commuting elements of a ring $R$. Suppose that $A-1$ is also invertible and that the equation $$[B,(A-1)(A,B)]=0$$ called the fundamental equation is satisfied. Then an invariant $R$-module is defined for any…

Let R be a ring with derivation d, such that (d(xy))^n =(d(x))^n(d(y))^n for all x,y in R and n>1 is a fixed integer. In this paper, we show that if R is a prime, then d = 0 or R is a commutative. If R is a semiprime, then d maps R in to…

Let $K$ be a field and $D$ be a finite-dimensional central division algebra over $K$. We prove a variant of the Nullstellensatz for $2$-sided ideals in the ring of polynomial maps $D^n \to D$. In the case where $D = K$ is commutative, our…

We study the behavior of square-central elements and Artin-Schreier elements in division algebras of exponent 2 and degree a power of 2. We provide chain lemmas for such elements in division algebras over 2-fields $F$ of cohomological…

Let D be a division ring with centre F. Let T(D) be the vector space over F generated by all multiplicative commutators in D. In [1], authors have conjectured that every division ring is generated as a vector space over its centre by all of…

A commutative order in a central simple algebra over a number field is said to be selective if it embeds in some, but not all, the maximal orders in the algebra. We completely characterize selective orders in central division algebras, of…

Let ${\mathscr A}(D)$ be an algebra of functions continuous in the disk $D=\{z\in{\mathbb C}\,|\,\,\,|z|\leqslant 1\}$ and {\it holomorphic} into $D$. The well-known fact is that the set ${\mathscr M}$ of its characters (homomorphisms…

We prove Bergman's theorem on centralizers by using generic matrices and Kontsevich's quantization method. For any field $\textbf{k} $ of positive characteristics, set $A=\textbf{k} \langle x_1,\dots,x_s\rangle$ be a free associative…

We propose polynomial-time algorithms for finding nontrivial zeros of quadratic forms with four variables over rational function fields of characteristic 2. We apply these results to find prescribed quadratic subfields of quaternion…

Let $p_{1}, p_{2}$ be two distinct prime integers, let $n$ be a positive integer, $n$$\geq 3$ and let $\xi_{n} $ be a primitive root of order $n$ of the unity. In this paper we obtain a complete characterization for a quaternion algebra…

The quaternions are non-commutative. The deviation from commutativity is encapsulated in the commutator of unit quaternions. It is known that the k-th power of the commutator is null-homotopic if and only if k is divisible by 12. The main…

Linear algebra is usually defined over a field such as the reals or complex numbers. It is possible to extend this to skew fields such as the quaternions. However, to the authors' knowledge there is no commonly accepted notation of linear…

In this paper, I treat quadratic equation over associative $D$-algebra. In quaternion algebra $H$, the equation $x^2=a$ has either $2$ roots, or infinitely many roots. Since $a\in R$, $a<0$, then the equation has infinitely many roots.…

We study a nonlinear analogue of additive commutators, known as \textit{polynomial commutators}, defined by $p(ab) - p(ba)$ for a polynomial $p \in F[x]$ and elements $a, b$ in an algebra $R$ over a field $F$. Originally introduced by…
