When Is the Commutant of a Bol Loop a Subloop?

چکیده

A left Bol loop is a loop satisfying x(y(xz)) = (x(yx))z. The commutant of a loop is the set of all elements which commute with all elements of the loop. In a finite Bol loop of odd order or of order 2k, k odd, the commutant is a subloop. We investigate conditions under which the commutant of a Bol loop is not a subloop. In a finite Bol loop of order relatively prime to 3, the commutant generates an abelian group of order dividing the order of the loop. This generalizes a well-known result for Moufang loops. After describing all extensions of a loop K such that K is in the left and middle nuclei of the resulting loop, we show how to construct classes of Bol loops with non-subloop commutant. In particular, we obtain all Bol loops of order 16 with non-subloop commutant.

Smarandache isotopy of second Smarandache Bol loops

The pair (GH , ·) is called a special loop if (G, ·) is a loop with an arbitrary subloop (H, ·) called its special subloop. A special loop (GH , ·) is called a second Smarandache Bol loop (S2ndBL) if and only if it obeys the second Smarandache Bol identity (xs · z)s = x(sz · s) for all x, z in G and s in H. The popularly known and well studied class of loops called Bol loops fall into this clas...

A class of simple proper Bol loops ∗ Gábor

For a loop Q, we call the maps La(x) = ax,Ra(x) = xa left and right translations, respectively. These are permutations of Q, generating the left and right multiplication groups LMlt(Q),RMlt(Q) of Q, respectively. The group closure Mlt(Q) of LMlt(Q) and RMlt(Q) is the full multiplication group of Q. Just like for groups, normal subloops are kernels of homomorphisms of loops. The loop Q is simple...

BOL LOOPS AND BRUCK LOOPS OF ORDER pq

Right Bol loops are loops satisfying the identity ((zx)y)x = z((xy)x), and right Bruck loops are right Bol loops satisfying the identity (xy)−1 = x−1y−1. Let p and q be odd primes such that p > q. Advancing the research program of Niederreiter and Robinson from 1981, we classify right Bol loops of order pq. When q does not divide p−1, the only right Bol loop of order pq is the cyclic group of o...

In order to describe non-Hamiltonian (dissipative) systems in quantum theory we need to use non-Lie algebra such that commutators of this algebra generate Lie subalgebra. It was shown that classical connection between analytic group (Lie group) and Lie algebra, proved by Lie theorems, exists between analytic loop, commutant of which is associative subloop (group), and commutant Lie algebra (an ...
