The operation A B A in operator algebras

Marcell Gaál (2020)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

The binary operation a b a , called Jordan triple product, and its variants (such as e.g. the sequential product a b a or the inverted Jordan triple product a b - 1 a ) appear in several branches of operator theory and matrix analysis. In this paper we briefly survey some analytic and algebraic properties of these operations, and investigate their intimate connection to Thompson type isometries in different operator algebras.

The order of normalform hypersubstitutions of type (2)

Klaus Denecke, Kazem Mahdavi (2000)

Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications

In [2] it was proved that all hypersubstitutions of type τ = (2) which are not idempotent and are different from the hypersubstitution whichmaps the binary operation symbol f to the binary term f(y,x) haveinfinite order. In this paper we consider the order of hypersubstitutionswithin given varieties of semigroups. For the theory of hypersubstitution see [3].

The Ore conjecture

Martin Liebeck, E.A. O’Brien, Aner Shalev, Pham Tiep (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

The Ore conjecture, posed in 1951, states that every element of every finite non-abelian simple group is a commutator. Despite considerable effort, it remains open for various infinite families of simple groups. In this paper we develop new strategies, combining character-theoretic methods with other ingredients, and use them to establish the conjecture.

The p 1 -central extension of the Mapping Class Group of orientable surfaces

Sylvain Gervais (1998)

Banach Center Publications

Topological Quantum Field Theories are closely related to representations of Mapping Class Groups of surfaces. Considering the case of the TQFTs derived from the Kauffman bracket, we describe the central extension coming from this representation, which is just a projective extension.

The p -nilpotency of finite groups with some weakly pronormal subgroups

Jianjun Liu, Jian Chang, Guiyun Chen (2020)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

For a finite group G and a fixed Sylow p -subgroup P of G , Ballester-Bolinches and Guo proved in 2000 that G is p -nilpotent if every element of P G ' with order p lies in the center of N G ( P ) and when p = 2 , either every element of P G ' with order 4 lies in the center of N G ( P ) or P is quaternion-free and N G ( P ) is 2 -nilpotent. Asaad introduced weakly pronormal subgroup of G in 2014 and proved that G is p -nilpotent if every element of P with order p is weakly pronormal in G and when p = 2 , every element of P with order 4 is also...
