We study structurable algebras and their associated Freudenthal triple systems over commutative rings. The automorphism groups of these triple systems are exceptional groups of type $\mathrm{E}_7$, and we realize groups of type…

For certain Lie algebras g, we can use a Z/5Z-grading and define a quartic form and a skew-symmetric bilinear form on the degree 1 component, g_1, thereby constructing a Freudenthal triple system. The structure of the Freudenthal triple…

Heisenberg groups over algebras with central involution and their automorphism groups are constructed. The complex quaternion group algebra over a prime field is used as an example. Its subspaces provide finite models for each of the real…

Recently, Maurice Chayet and Skip Garibaldi introduced a class of commutative non-associative algebras. In previous work, we gave an explicit description of these algebras for groups of type $G_2,F_4$ and certain forms of $E_6$ in terms of…

Freudenthal algebras over a field are basically the same as Jordan algebras of degree $3$ remaining simple under all base field extensions. These algebras are intimately linked, via their automorphism groups and structure groups, to simple…

Lie algebras endowed with an action by automorphisms of the dicyclic group of degree 3 are considered. The close connections of these algebras with Lie algebras graded over the nonreduced root system BC1, with J-ternary algebras and with…

It is well-known that every algebraic group of type F_4 is the automorphism group of an exceptional Jordan algebra, and that up to isogeny all groups of type ^1E_6 with trivial Tits algebras arise as the isometry groups of norm forms of…

We determine which simple algebraic groups of type $^3D_4$ over arbitrary fields of characteristic different from 2 admit outer automorphisms of order 3, and classify these automorphisms up to conjugation. The criterion is formulated in…

We study evolution algebras of arbitrary dimension. We analyze in deep the notions of evolution subalgebras, ideals and non-degeneracy and describe the ideals generated by one element and characterize the simple evolution algebras. We also…

A minimal homogeneous generating system of the algebra of semi-invariants of tuples of two-by-two matrices over an infinite field of characteristic two or over the ring of integers is given. In an alternative interpretation this yields a…

The goal of this paper is to define a new class of objects which we call triple groups and to relate them with Cherednik's double affine Hecke algebras. This has as immediate consequences new descriptions of double affine Weyl and Artin…

Non-degenerate bilinear forms over fields of characteristic 2, in particular, non-symmetric ones, are classified with respect to various equivalences, and the Lie algebras preserving them are described. Although it is known that there are…

Let K be a field of positive characteristic p, let R be either a group algebra K[G] or a restricted enveloping algebra u(L), and let I be the augmentation ideal of R. We first characterize those R for which I satisfies a polynomial identity…

Given an automorphism of a free group $F_n$, we consider the following invariants: $e$ is the number of exponential strata (an upper bound for the number of different exponential growth rates of conjugacy classes); $d$ is the maximal degree…

This paper contains a complete description of minimal non-gatherable triangle triples in the lambda-sequences for the classical root systems, $F_4$ and $E_6$. Such sequences are associated with reduced decompositions (words) in affine and…

An element of a group is called bireflectional when it is the product of two involutions of the group (i.e. elements of order 1 or 2). If an element is bireflectional then it is conjugated to its inverse. It is known that all elements of…

We classify all finite 2-groups that have a cyclic or dihedral maximal subgroup and determine their automorphism groups. Based on this result, we classify all pairs $ (G,\mathcal{M}) $, such that $ G $ is a finite 2-group and $ \mathcal{M}…

We present a new simple proof of the fact that certain group manifolds as well as certain homogeneous spaces G/H of dimension 4n admit a quaternionic triple of integrable complex structures that are covariantly constant with respect to the…

This is a survey on the automorphism groups in various classes of affine algebraic surfaces and the algebraic group actions on such surfaces. Being infinite-dimensional, these automorphism groups share some important features of algebraic…

The group scheme of ternary automorphisms of a perfect finite dimensional evolution algebra A is computed. The main advantage of using group schemes is that it allows to apply the Lie functor to determine the Lie algebra of ternary…
