\'{E}tale difference algebraic groups are a difference analog of \'{e}tale algebraic groups. Our main result is a Jordan-H\"{o}lder type decomposition theorem for these groups. Roughly speaking, it shows that any \'{e}tale difference…

We give a uniform construction of the finite simple groups $E_6(q)$, $F_4(q)$ and ${}^2E_6(q)$, which does not require any special treatment for characteristics 2 or 3, and in particular avoids any mention of quadratic Jordan algebras.…

Very recently, Maurice Chayet and Skip Garibaldi have introduced a class of commutative non-associative algebras, for each simple linear algebraic group over an arbitrary field (with some minor restriction on the characteristic). In a…

Let G be an arbitrary group and let K be a field of characteristic different from 2. We classify the G-gradings on the Jordan algebra of upper triangular matrices of order n over K. It turns out that there are, up to a graded isomorphism,…

Let $F$ be a field of characteristic not 2 or 3. The first Tits construction is a well-known tripling process to construct separable cubic Jordan algebras, especially Albert algebras. We generalize the first Tits construction by choosing…

The exceptional simple Lie algebras of types E7 and E8 are endowed with optimal $SL_2^n$-structures, and are thus described in terms of the corresponding coordinate algebras. These are nonassociative algebras which much resemble the so…

We continue the study undertaken in \cite{DV} of the exceptional Jordan algebra $J = J_3^8$ as (part of) the finite-dimensional quantum algebra in an almost classical space-time approach to particle physics. Along with reviewing known…

In this work, the automorphism group schemes of finite-dimensional simple Jordan pairs of types I and IV, and of some Jordan triple systems related to them, are determined. We assume $\mathrm{char}(\mathbb{F}) \neq 2$ for the base field…

It is known that simple algebraic groups of type $F_4$ defined over a field $k$ are precisely the full automorphism groups of Albert algebras over $k$. We explore $R$-triviality for the group $\text{\bf Aut}(A)$ when $A$ is an Albert…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group of type $E_6$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$. We determine the submodule structure of the Weyl modul es with highest weight $r\omega_1$ for $0\leq r\leq p-1$, where $\omega_1$…

Some forms of Lie algebras of types E_6, E_7, and E_8 are constructed using the exterior cube of a rank 9 finitely generated projective module.

We consider the structure of Jordan $H$-pseudoalgebras which are linearly finitely generated over a Hopf algebra $H$. There are two cases under consideration: $H=U(\mathfrak h)$ and $H=U(\mathfrak h)# \mathbb C[\Gamma ]$, where $\mathfrak…

We construct Moufang sets, Moufang triangles and Moufang hexagons using inner ideals of Lie algebras obtained from structurable algebras via the Tits--Kantor--Koecher construction. The three different types of structurable algebras we use…

Based on results of Harding, Heunen, Lindenhovius and Navara, (2019), we give a connection between the category of AW*-algebras and their normal Jordan homomorphisms and a category COG of orthogemetries, which are structures that are…

In this paper we present a construction of the compact form of the exceptional Lie group F4 by exponentiating the corresponding Lie algebra f4. We realize F4 as the automorphisms group of the exceptional Jordan algebra, whose elements are 3…

For almost finite groupoids, we study how their homology groups reflect dynamical properties of their topological full groups. It is shown that two clopen subsets of the unit space has the same class in H_0 if and only if there exists an…

We classify, up to isomorphism, the 2-dimensional algebras over a field K. We focuse also on the case of characteristic 2, identifying the matrices of GL(2,F_2) with the elements of the symmetric group S_3. The classification is then given…

We review various properties of the exceptional Euclidean Jordan algebra of degree three. Euclidean Jordan algebras of degree three and their corresponding Freudenthal triple systems were recently shown to be intimately related to extremal…

Fundamental groups of fake projective planes fall into fifty distinct isomorphism classes, one for each complex conjugate pair. We prove that this is not the case for their algebraic fundamental groups: there are only forty-six isomorphism…

A Jordan algebra J is said to be pseudo-euclidean if J is endowed with an associative non-degenerate symmetric bilinear form B. B is said an associative scalar product on J. First, we provide a description of the pseudo-euclidean Jordan…
