C-loops are loops satisfying $x(y(yz))=((xy)y)z$. They often behave analogously to Moufang loops and they are closely related to Steiner triple systems and combinatorics. We initiate the study of C-loops by proving: (i) Steiner loops are…

Isotopes of C-loops with unique non-identity squares are shown to be both C-loops and A-loops. The relationship between C-loops and Steiner loops is further studied. Central loops with the weak and cross inverse properties are also…

The Cayley-Dickson loop Q_n is the multiplicative closure of basic elements of the algebra constructed by n applications of the Cayley-Dickson doubling process (the first few examples of such algebras are real numbers, complex numbers,…

The objectives of this paper is to give a systematic investigation of extension theory of loops. A loop extension is (left, right or middle) nuclear, if the kernel of the extension consists of elements associating (from left, right or…

Although little can be gleaned about a loop with the property that its squares are, say, left nuclear ($xx\cdot yz = (xx\cdot y)z$), if its squares are also, say, middle nuclear ($(x\cdot yy)z = x(yy\cdot z)$), then the loop exhibits more…

Let $N$ and $H$ be groups, and let $G$ be an extension of $H$ by $N$. In this article we describe the structure of the complex group ring of $G$ in terms of data associated with $N$ and $H$. In particular, we present conditions on the…

An algebraic process for the construction of an autotopism for a non-Steiner C-loop is described and this is demonstrated with an example using a known finite C-loop. In every C-loop, two of its parastrophes are not equivalent(equal) it, if…

Based on the recent development of commutator theory for loops, we provide both syntactic and semantic characterization of abelian normal subloops. We highlight the analogies between well known central extensions and central nilpotence on…

We develop a theory of loops with involution. On this basis we define a Cayley-Dickson doubling on loops, and use it to investigate the lattice of varieties of loops with involution, focusing on properties that remain valid in the…

We give a characterisation of central extensions of a Lie group G by the non-zero complex numbers in terms of a differential two-form on G and a differential one-form on GxG. This is applied to the case of the central extension of the loop…

The representation sets of central loops are investigated and the results obtained are used to construct a finite C-loop. It is shown that for certain types of isotopisms, the central identities are isotopic invariant.

Buchsteiner loops are those which satisfy the identity $x\backslash (xy \cdot z) = (y \cdot zx)/ x$. We show that a Buchsteiner loop modulo its nucleus is an abelian group of exponent four, and construct an example where the factor achieves…

Let $C(T)$ be a generalized Coxeter group, which has a natural map onto one of the classical Coxeter groups, either $B_n$ or $D_n$. Let $C_Y(T)$ be a natural quotient of $C(T)$, and if $C(T)$ is simply-laced (which means all the relations…

Connectivity is a homotopy invariant property of separable C*-algebras which has three notable consequences: absence of nontrivial projections, quasidiagonality and a more geometric realization of KK-theory for nuclear C*-algebras using…

LC-loops, RC-loops and C-loops are collectively called central loops. It is shown that an LC(RC)-loop is a left(right) universal loop. But an LC(RC)-loop is a universal loop if and only if it is a right(left) universal loop. It is observed…

We study conjugacy closed loops (CC-loops) and power-associative CC-loops (PACC-loops). If $Q$ is a PACC-loop with nucleus $N$, then $Q/N$ is an abelian group of exponent 12; if in addition $Q$ is finite, then $|Q|$ is divisible by 16 or by…

Correlators of Wilson-line operators in non-abelian gauge theories are known to exponentiate, and their logarithms can be organised in terms of collections of Feynman diagrams called webs. In [1] we introduced the concept of Cweb, or…

Our paper deals with the investigation of extensions of commutative groups by loops so that the quasigroups that result in the multiplication between cosets of the kernel subgroup are T-quasigroups. We limit our study to extensions in which…

Let $Q$ be a loop. If $S\leq Q$ is such that $\varphi(S) \subseteq S$ for each standard generator of $\mathrm{Inn}(Q)$, then $S$ does not have to be a normal subloop. In an LC loop the left and middle nucleus coincide and form a normal…

This paper explores the cohomology of linear cycle sets, focusing on extensions of a specific linear cycle set H by an abelian group I. We derive explicit formulas for the second cohomology group, which classifies these extensions, and…
