According to celebrated Hurwitz theorem, there exists four division algebras consisting of R (real numbers), C (complex numbers), H (quaternions) and O (octonions). Keeping in view the utility of octonion variable we have tried to extend…

The class of algebras of Jordan type $\eta$ was introduced by Hall, Rehren and Shpectorov in 2015 within the much broader class of axial algebras. Algebras of Jordan type are commutative algebras $A$ over a field of characteristic not $2$,…

We give an algorithm for computing Segre classes of subschemes of arbitrary projective varieties by computing degrees of a sequence of linear projections. Based on the fact that Segre classes of projective varieties commute with…

We introduce the notion of basic superrank for varieties of algebras which generalizes that of basic rank. First we consider a number of varieties of nearly associative algebras over a field of characteristic $0$ that have infinite basic…

A computation shows that there are 77 (up to scalar shifts) possible pairs of integer coefficient polynomials of degree five, having roots of unity as their roots, and satisfying the conditions of Beukers and Heckman [1], so that the…

We prove a closed formula for the integrals of the top Segre classes of tautological bundles over the Hilbert schemes of points of a K3 surface X. We derive relations among the Segre classes via equivariant localization of the virtual…

We study the number of (set-theoretically) defining equations of Segre products of projective spaces times certain projective hypersurfaces, extending results by Singh and Walther. Meanwhile, we prove some results about the cohomological…

A "tensor space" is a vector space equipped with a finite collection of multi-linear forms. In previous work, we showed that (for each signature) there exists a universal homogeneous tensor space, which is unique up to isomorphism. Here we…

In the context of six-dimensional supergravity there is a special class of parent models for five-dimensional theories defined by the four Euclidean simple Jordan algebras of degree 3. We extend this result to include six- dimensional…

The classification, up to isomorphism, of two-dimensional (not necessarily commutative) Jordan algebras over algebraically closed fields and $\mathbb{R}$ is presented in terms of their matrices of structure constants.

Toric quiver varieties (moduli spaces of quiver representations) are studied. Given a quiver and a weight there is an associated quasiprojective toric variety together with a canonical embedding into projective space. It is shown that for a…

We construct Jordan algebras over a locally ringed space using generalizations of the Tits process and the first Tits construction by Achhammer. Some general results on the structure of these algebras are obtained. Examples of Albert…

This paper is devoted to the description of complex finite-dimensional algebras of level two. We obtain the classification of algebras of level two in the varieties of Jordan, Lie and associative algebras.

Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian ring. We prove that the class of modules of projective dimension bounded by $k$ is of finite type if and only if $R$ satisfies Serre's condition $(S_k)$. In particular, this answers positively a question…

We prove an identity of Segre classes for zero-schemes of compatible sections of two vector bundles. Applications include bounds on the number of equations needed to cut out a scheme with the same Segre class as a given subscheme of (for…

The Severi variety V_{n,d} of a smooth projective surface S is defined as the subvariety of the linear system |O_S(n)|, which parametrizes curves with d nodes. We show that, for a general surface S of degree k in P^3 and for all n>k-1,…

The paper is devoted to the description of the varieties of complex 5-dimensional nilpotent Jordan superalgebras. We find all representatives for the isomorphism classes, using the Jordan normal form, results of simultaneous matrix…

In this article, we first give a short introduction to conformal algebras. Then we present three families of simple conformal algebras finite growth generated by simple Jordan algebras of types A, B, C.

We discuss whether the Jordan degree type encodes \break more information about graded artinian Gorenstein algebras than the Jordan type for linear forms. We show that in codimension two, the Jordan type determines the Jordan degree type.…

We announce here a number of results concerning representation theory of the algebra $R=k<x,y>/ (xy-yx-y^2)$, known as Jordan plane (or Jordan algebra). We consider the question on 'classification' of finite-dimensional modules over the…
