Exactly 170 years ago, the construction of the real quaternion algebra by William Hamilton was announced in the Proceedings of the Royal Irish Academy. It became the first example of non-commutative division rings and a major turning point…

We provide an algorithm that, given any order $O$ in a quaternion algebra over a global field, computes representatives of all right equivalence classes of right $O$-ideals, including the non-invertible ones. The theory is developed for a…

In this article, we give a classification of irreducible completely splittable representations of affine Hecke-Clifford superalgebras $H_n^{\mathrm{aff}}(q)$ when $q^2$ is a primitive $h$-th root of unity. As an application, we derive a…

We develop a theory of $p$-adic continued fractions for a quaternion algebra $B$ over $\mathbb Q$ ramified at a rational prime $p$. Many properties holding in the commutative case can be proven also in this setting. In particular, we focus…

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,…

To construct ternary "quaternions" following Hamilton we must introduce two "imaginary "units, $q_1$ and $q_2$ with propeties $q_1^n=1$ and $q_2^m=1$. The general is enough difficult, and we consider the $m=n=3$. This case gives us the…

Let $q$ be a power of a prime $p$, let $k$ be a nontrivial divisor of $q-1$ and write $e=(q-1)/k$. We study upper bounds for cyclotomic numbers $(a,b)$ of order $e$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. A general result of our study is that…

Frobenius' Theorem states that the only finite-dimensional real division algebras are the algebra of real numbers $\mathbb R$, the algebra of complex numbers $\mathbb C$, and the algebra of quaternions $\mathbb H$. We present a short proof…

Let $r\geq 3$ be any positive integer which is relatively prime to $p$ and $q^2\equiv 1 \pmod r$. Let $\tau_1, \tau_2$ be any permutation polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2},$ $\sigma_M$ is an invertible linear map over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$…

Given a field $F$, an \'etale extension $L/F$ and an Azumaya algebra $A/L$, one knows that there are extensions $E/F$ such that $A \otimes_F E$ is a split algebra over $L \otimes_F E$. In this paper we bound the degree of a minimal…

Let $\mathcal{O}$ be a maximal order in the quaternion algebra over $\mathbb{Q}$ ramified at $p$ and $\infty$. We prove two theorems that allow us to recover the structure of $\mathcal{O}$ from limited information. The first says that for…

We study partitions of totally positive integers in real quadratic fields. We develop an algorithm for computing the number of partitions, prove a result about the parity of the partition function, and characterize the quadratic fields such…

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…

For $x\ge0$ let $\pi(x)$ be the number of primes not exceeding $x$. The asymptotic behaviors of the prime-counting function $\pi(x)$ and the $n$-th prime $p_n$ have been studied intensively in analytic number theory. Surprisingly, we find…

We study the common splitting fields of symbol algebras of degree $p^m$ over fields $F$ of $\operatorname{char}(F)=p$. We first show that if any finite number of such algebras share a degree $p^m$ simple purely inseparable splitting field,…

P-algebras are a non-commutative, non-associative generalization of Boolean algebras that are for quantum logic what Boolean algebras are for classical logic. P-algebras have type <X, 0, ', .> where 0 is a constant, ' is unary and . is…

For a symmetric algebra A over a field K of characteristic p > 0 K{\"u}lshammer constructed a descending sequence of ideals of the centre of A. If K is perfect this sequence was shown to be an invariant under derived equivalence and for…

This is the first of four articles studying some slight generalisations H(n,m) of Khovanov's diagram algebra, as well as quasi-hereditary covers K(n,m) of these algebras in the sense of Rouquier, and certain infinite dimensional limiting…

From some works of P. Furtw\"angler and H.S. Vandiver, we put the basis of a new cyclotomic approach to Fermat's last theorem for p>3 and to a stronger version called SFLT, by introducing governing fields of the form Q(exp(2 i pi/q-1)) for…

By means of principal isotopes lH(a,b) of the algebra lH [Ra 99] we give an exhaustive and not repetitive description of all 4-dimensional absolute-valued algebras satisfying (x^p, x^q, x^r) = 0 for fixed integers p, q, r \in\{1,2\}. For…
