In 1934, Jordan et al. gave a necessary algebraic condition, the Jordan identity, for a sensible theory of quantum mechanics. All but one of the algebras that satisfy this condition can be described by Hermitian matrices over the complexes…
A new elementary nonstandard proof of the Jordan curve theorem is given. The proof (the technical part consists of 4 pages) is self-contained, except for the Jordan theorem for polygons taken for granted.
The variety $JorN_{5}$ of five-dimensional nilpotent Jordan algebras structures over an algebraically closed field is investigated. We show that $JorN_{5}$ is the union of five irreducible components, four of them correspond to the Zariski…
When analyzing non-Hermitian lattice systems, the standard eigenmode decomposition utilized for the analysis of Hermitian systems must be replaced by Jordan decomposition. This approach enables us to identify the correct number of the left…
This is a transcription of a conference proceedings from 1985. It reviews the Jordan algebra formulation of quantum mechanics. A possible novelty is the discussion of time evolution; the associator takes over the role of $i$ times the…
We give a generalization of the Jordan canonical form theorem for a class of bounded linear operators on complex separable Hilbert spaces in terms of direct integrals. Precisely, we study the uniqueness of strongly irreducible…
The classification of the nilpotent Jacobians with some structure has been an object of study because of its relationship with the Jacobian Conjecture. In this paper we classify the polynomial maps in dimension $n$ of the form $H = (u(x,y),…
We give a complete classification of the Jordan types occurring in the nilpotent commutator of a nilpotent matrix whose Jordan type is a hook partition. As a consequence, we also show that two partitions with the same generic commuting…
Given an algebraically closed field $F$ of characteristic 0 and an $F$-vector space $V$, let $L(V)=V\oplus\Lambda^2(V)$ denote the free 2-step nilpotent Lie algebra associated to $V$. In this paper, we classify all uniserial representations…
The purpose of this paper is a partial progress towards classification of simple infinite dimensional Jordan superalgebras. First, we prove that the only simple infinite dimensional Jordan superalgebras with finite dimensional even parts…
We compute the Jordan constant for the group of birational automorphisms of a projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2_{\mathbb k}$, where ${\mathbb k}$ is either an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, or the field of real numbers, or the…
Let $J_r$ denote an $r\times r$ matrix over a finite field $F$ with minimal and characteristic polynomials $(t-1)^r$. Suppose $r\leq s$. It is not hard to show that the Jordan canonical form of $J_r\otimes J_s$ is similar to…
We initiate the study of modules of constant Jordan type for quantum complete intersections, and prove a range of basic properties. We then show that for these algebras, constant Jordan type is an invariant of Auslander-Reiten components.…
The behavior of the images of a fixed element of order p in irreducible representations of a classical algebraic group in odd characteristic p with highest weights large enough with respect to p and this element is investigated. Lower…
We study Jordan types of linear forms for graded Artinian Gorenstein algebras having arbitrary codimension. We introduce rank matrices of linear forms for such algebras that represent the ranks of multiplication maps in various degrees. We…
Let f : X --> X be an endomorphism of a normal projective variety defined over a global field K, and let D_0,D_1,D_2,... be divisor classes that form a Jordan block with eigenvalue b for the action of f^* on Pic(X) tensored with C. We…
We prove that pointwise finite-dimensional S^1 persistence modules over an arbitrary field decompose uniquely, up to isomorphism, into the direct sum of a bar code and finitely-many Jordan cells. These persistence modules have also been…
We present a new link between the Invariant Theory of infinitesimal singular Riemannian foliations and Jordan algebras. This, together with an inhomogeneous version of Weyl's First Fundamental Theorems, provides a characterization of the…
We show that, for $n \ge 3$, the mapping on $M_n(\mathbb{C})$ which sends a matrix to its diagonalizable part in its Jordan-Chevalley decomposition, is {\bf norm-unbounded} on any neighbourhood of the zero matrix. Let $X$ be a Stonean…
We consider families of polynomial lemniscates in the complex plane and determine if they bound a Jordan domain. This allows us to find examples of regions for which we can calculate the projection of $\bar{z}$ to the Bergman space of the…
