We investigate surjective isometries between projection lattices of two von Neumann algebras. We show that such a mapping is characterized by means of Jordan $^*$-isomorphisms. In particular, we prove that two von Neumann algebras without…

The exceptional Jordan algebra is the algebra of $3\times 3$ Hermitian matrices with octonionic entries. It is the only one from Jordan's algebraic formulation of quantum mechanics which is not equivalent to the conventional formulation of…

Let $\N_n$ be the set of nilpotent $n$ by $n$ matrices over an algebraically closed field $k$. For each $r\ge 2$, let $C_r(\N_n)$ be the variety consisting of all pairwise commuting $r$-tuples of nilpotent matrices. It is well-kown that…

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…

Invariant subspaces of a matrix $A$ are considered which are obtained by truncation of a Jordan basis of a generalized eigenspace of $A$. We characterize those subspaces which are independent of the choice of the Jordan basis. An…

We study the homotopy type of spaces of commuting elements in connected nilpotent Lie groups, via almost commuting elements in their Lie algebras. We give a necessary and sufficient condition on the fundamental group of such a Lie group $G$…

Over a field of characteristic $0$ we give a concrete, computation--ready description of Jordan algebra structures and their low--order deformation theory. The Jordan identity is quartic in the elements and cubic in the multiplication, and…

Given an nxn nilpotent matrix over an algebraically closed field K, we prove some properties of the set of all the nxn nilpotent matrices over K which commute with it. Then we give a proof of the irreducibility of the variety of all the…

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 prove that the closure of every Jordan class J in a semisimple simply connected complex group G at a point x with Jordan decomposition x = rv is smoothly equivalent to the union of closures of those Jordan classes in the centraliser of r…

Dissipative systems can be described in terms of non-hermitian hamiltonians H, whose left eigenvectors f^j and right eigenvectors f_j form a bi-orthogonal system. Bi-orthogonal systems could suffer from two difficulties. (a) If the…

The authors here show that the partition $P_{k,l}(Q)$ in the table $\mathcal T(Q)$ of partitions having maximal nilpotent commutator a given stable partition $Q$, defined in [IKVZ2], is identical to the analogous partition $P_{k,l}^Q$…

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…

Let p be a prime number. We study the dimensions of Brauer constructions of Young and Young permutation modules with respect to p-subgroups of the symmetric groups. They depend only on partitions labelling the modules and the orbits of the…

In this article, we investigate an analogue of the global nilpotent cone in the case of the cotangent stack of the moduli stack of parahoric torsors on curves.

This work concerns in part the construction of conformal Jordan cells of infinite rank and their reductions to conformal Jordan cells of finite rank. It is also discussed how a procedure similar to Lie algebra contractions may reduce a…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic not equal to $2,3$, $\mathbb{O}$ an octonion over $k$ and $\mathcal{J}$ the exceptional Jordan algebra defined by $\mathbb{O}$. We consider the prehomogeneous vector space $(G,V)$ where $G=GE_6\times…

An idempotent in a Jordan algebra induces a Peirce decomposition of the algebra into subspaces whose pairwise multiplication satisfies certain fusion rules $\Phi(\frac{1}{2})$. On the other hand, $3$-transposition groups $(G,D)$ can be…

In this paper we study the residual nilpotence of groups defined by basic commutators. We prove that the so-called Hydra groups as well as certain of their generalizations and quotients are, in the main, residually torsion-free nilpotent.…

Let $J$ be a finite-dimensional semi-simple Jordan algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$. In this article, the diagonal action of the automorphism group of $J$ on the $n$-fold product $J\times\ldots \times J$ is…
