Distinguishing Jordan polynomials by means of a single Jordan-algebra norm

Jordan automorphisms, Jordan derivations of generalized triangular matrix algebra

Derivations, Jordan derivations, as well as automorphisms and Jordan automorphisms of the algebra of triangular matrices and some class of their subalgebras have been the object of active research for a long time [1, 2, 5, 6, 9, 10]. A well-know result of Herstein [11] states that every Jordan isomorphism on a prime ring of characteristic different from 2 is either an isomorphism or an anti-iso...

Ela Norm Preservers of Jordan Products

Norm preserver maps of Jordan product on the algebra Mn of n×n complex matrices are studied, with respect to various norms. A description of such surjective maps with respect to the Frobenius norm is obtained: Up to a suitable scaling and unitary similarity, they are given by one of the four standard maps (identity, transposition, complex conjugation, and conjugate transposition) on Mn, except ...

Jordan Automorphisms on a Semisimple Banach Algebra

In the group of (continuous) Jordan automorphisms, with the uniform topology, on a semisimple Banach algebra, we show that the connected component of the identity consists of automorphisms. P. Civin and B. Yood have shown that a Jordan homomorphism (that is, a homomorphism that preserves the product xoy = | (xy+yx)) from a Banach algebra onto a semisimple Banach algebra is continuous provided t...

On the Definition of Quasi-jordan Algebra

Velásquez and Felipe recently introduced quasi-Jordan algebras based on the product a / b = 1 2 (a a b + b ` a) in an associative dialgebra with operations a and `. We determine the polynomial identities of degree ≤ 4 satisfied by this product. In addition to right commutativity and the right quasi-Jordan identity, we obtain a new associator-derivation identity. Loday [1, 2] defined an (associa...
