  • Moufang Loops and Alternative Algebras
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY Volume 132, Number 2, Pages 313{316 S 0002-9939(03)07260-5 Article electronically published on August 28, 2003 MOUFANG LOOPS AND ALTERNATIVE ALGEBRAS IVAN P. SHESTAKOV (Communicated by Lance W. Small) Abstract. Let O be the algebra O of classical real octonions or the (split) algebra of octonions over the finite field GF (p2);p>2. Then the quotient loop O∗=Z ∗ of the Moufang loop O∗ of all invertible elements of the algebra O modulo its center Z∗ is not embedded into a loop of invertible elements of any alternative algebra. It is well known that for an alternative algebra A with the unit 1 the set U(A) of all invertible elements of A forms a Moufang loop with respect to multiplication [3]. But, as far as the author knows, the following question remains open (see, for example, [1]). Question 1. Is it true that any Moufang loop can be imbedded into a loop of type U(A) for a suitable unital alternative algebra A? A positive answer to this question was announced in [5]. Here we show that, in fact, the answer to this question is negative: the Moufang loop U(O)=R∗ for the algebra O of classical octonions over the real field R andthesimilarloopforthe algebra of octonions over the finite field GF (p2);p>2; are not imbeddable into the loops of type U(A). Below O denotes an algebra of octonions (or Cayley{Dickson algebra) over a field F of characteristic =2,6 O∗ = U(O) is the Moufang loop of all the invertible elements of O, L = O∗=F ∗.

  • MOUFANG LOOPS THAT SHARE ASSOCIATOR and THREE QUARTERS of THEIR MULTIPLICATION TABLES 1. Introduction Moufang Loops, I.E., Loops
    MOUFANG LOOPS THAT SHARE ASSOCIATOR AND THREE QUARTERS OF THEIR MULTIPLICATION TABLES ALES· DRAPAL¶ AND PETR VOJTECHOVSK· Y¶ Abstract. Two constructions due to Dr¶apalproduce a group by modifying exactly one quarter of the Cayley table of another group. We present these constructions in a compact way, and generalize them to Moufang loops, using loop extensions. Both constructions preserve associators, the associator subloop, and the nucleus. We con- jecture that two Moufang 2-loops of ¯nite order n with equivalent associator can be connected by a series of constructions similar to ours, and o®er empirical evidence that this is so for n = 16, 24, 32; the only interesting cases with n · 32. We further investigate the way the constructions a®ect code loops and loops of type M(G; 2). The paper closes with several conjectures and research questions concerning the distance of Moufang loops, classi¯cation of small Moufang loops, and generalizations of the two constructions. MSC2000: Primary: 20N05. Secondary: 20D60, 05B15. 1. Introduction Moufang loops, i.e., loops satisfying the Moufang identity ((xy)x)z = x(y(xz)), are surely the most extensively studied loops. Despite this fact, the classi¯cation of Moufang loops is ¯nished only for orders less than 64, and several ingenious constructions are needed to obtain all these loops. The purpose of this paper is to initiate a new approach to ¯nite Moufang 2-loops. Namely, we intend to decide whether all Moufang 2-loops of given order with equivalent associator can be obtained from just one of them, using only group-theoretical constructions.

  • A Guide to Self-Distributive Quasigroups, Or Latin Quandles
    A GUIDE TO SELF-DISTRIBUTIVE QUASIGROUPS, OR LATIN QUANDLES DAVID STANOVSKY´ Abstract. We present an overview of the theory of self-distributive quasigroups, both in the two- sided and one-sided cases, and relate the older results to the modern theory of quandles, to which self-distributive quasigroups are a special case. Most attention is paid to the representation results (loop isotopy, linear representation, homogeneous representation), as the main tool to investigate self-distributive quasigroups. 1. Introduction 1.1. The origins of self-distributivity. Self-distributivity is such a natural concept: given a binary operation on a set A, fix one parameter, say the left one, and consider the mappings ∗ La(x) = a x, called left translations. If all such mappings are endomorphisms of the algebraic structure (A,∗ ), the operation is called left self-distributive (the prefix self- is usually omitted). Equationally,∗ the property says a (x y) = (a x) (a y) ∗ ∗ ∗ ∗ ∗ for every a, x, y A, and we see that distributes over itself. Self-distributivity∈ was pinpointed already∗ in the late 19th century works of logicians Peirce and Schr¨oder [69, 76], and ever since, it keeps appearing in a natural way throughout mathematics, perhaps most notably in low dimensional topology (knot and braid invariants) [12, 15, 63], in the theory of symmetric spaces [57] and in set theory (Laver’s groupoids of elementary embeddings) [15]. Recently, Moskovich expressed an interesting statement on his blog [60] that while associativity caters to the classical world of space and time, distributivity is, perhaps, the setting for the emerging world of information.

We describe their basic properties such as their alternativity and flexibility. A proof of Moufang's Theorem is presented which implies the important notice of di-associativity. We then provide a case study which leads us to find all non- associative Moufang loops of order less than 32. We study in particular the ones of order 16 and provide a visualization of the multiplication in these loops as has been previously done by Vojtˇechovsk´y[6] with the (only) non-associative Moufang loop of order 12.

  • The Moufang Loops of Order 64 and 81
    The Moufang Loops of Order 64 and 81 G´abor P. Nagy Bolyai Institute, University of Szeged, Aradi vertanuk tere 1, 6720 Szeged, Hungary Petr Vojtˇechovsk´y Department of Mathematics, University of Denver, Denver, Colorado 80208, U.S.A. Abstract We classify Moufang loops of order 64 and 81 up to isomorphism, using a linear algebraic approach to central loop extensions. In addition to the 267 groups of order 64, there are 4262 nonassociative Moufang loops of order 64. In addition to the 15 groups of order 81, there are 5 nonassociative Moufang loops of order 81, 2 of which are commutative. Key words: Moufang loop, code loop, 2-loop, classification of Moufang loops, GAP. 1. Introduction 1.1. Mathematical background Let Q be a set with one binary operation, denoted by juxtaposition. For x ∈ Q, define the left translation Lx and the right translation Rx by Lx(y) = xy, Rx(y) = yx. Then Q is a loop if all translations are bijections of Q, and if Q possesses a neutral element 1 satisfying 1x = x = x1 for every x ∈ Q. A loop Q is Moufang if it satisfies the Moufang identity (xy)(zx)= x((yz)x). Although Moufang loops are not associative in general, they have many properties we are familiar with from the theory of groups. For instance, every element x of a Moufang loop is arXiv:1509.05700v1 [math.GR] 18 Sep 2015 paired with its inverse x−1 satisfying x−1(xy)= y = (yx)x−1, any two elements generate a subgroup (this property is called diassociativity), and any three elements that associate generate a subgroup (the famous Moufang theorem).

  • On Malcev Algebras Nilpotent by Lie Center and Corresponding Analytic Moufang Loops
    On Malcev algebras nilpotent by Lie center and corresponding analytic Moufang loops. Alexander Grishkov, Marina Rasskazova, Liudmila Sabinina, Mohamed Salim May, 2020 Abstract In this note we describe the structure of finite dimensional Malcev al- gebras over a field of real numbers R, which are nilpotent module its Lie center. It is proved that the corresponding analytic global Moufang loops are nilpotent module their nucleus. Key words: Malcev algebras, Moufang loops, Global Moufang loops. 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: 17D10, 20N05. 1 Introduction The theory of analytic loops started with the work of A.I. Malcev in [Ma1]. In this article, the correspondence between the analytic local diassociative loops and the binary Lie algebras was established. A loop is a set M, endowed with a binary operation M × M → M, with the neutral element e ∈ M and the condition that the equations ax = b,ya = b for all a,b ∈ M have a unique solution. A loop is called diassociative, if every two elements of this loop generate a subgroup. Malcev showed that for an analytic loop, with the Moufang identity: (xy)(zx) = x(yz)x the corresponding tangent algebra satisfies the following identities: 2 arXiv:2005.07331v1 [math.RA] 15 May 2020 x = [J(x,y,z), x] − J(x, y, [x, z]) = 0, where J(x,y,z) = [[x, y],z] + [[x, z], x] + [[z, x],y] (See [1]). Algebras with these defining identities are currently called Malcev algebras. The more difficult ques- tion, if every finite dimensional Malcev R-algebra is the tangent algebra of some local analytic Moufang loop was solved positively by E.Kuzmin in 1969 in [Kuzm2].

  • Moufang Loops and Generalized Lie-Cartan Theorem1
    Journal of Generalized Lie Theory and Applications Vol. 2 (2008), No. 1, 45–49 Moufang loops and generalized Lie-Cartan theorem1 Eugen PAAL Tallinn University of Technology, Ehitajate tee 5, 19086 Tallinn, Estonia E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Generalized Lie-Cartan theorem for linear birepresentations of an analytic Moufang loop is considered. The commutation relations of the generators of the birepresentation are found. In particular, the Lie algebra of the multiplication group of the birepresentation is explicitly given. 2000 MSC: 20N05, 17D10, 20G05 Dedicated to Maks A. Akivis on the occasion of his 85th birthday and 65 years of scientific activity 1 Introduction Continuous symmetries generated by the Lie transformation groups are widely exploited in modern mathematics and physics. Nevertheless, it may happen that the group theoretical methods are too rigid and one has to extend these beyond the Lie groups and algebras. From this point of view it is interesting to extend the group theoretical symmetry methods by using the Moufang loops and Mal’tsev algebras. The latter are known as minimal non-associative generalizations of the group and Lie algebra concepts, respectively. In this paper, the generalized Lie-Cartan theorem for linear birepresentations of an analytic Moufang loop is considered. The commutation relations of the generators of the birepresentation were found. In particular, the Lie algebra of the multiplication group of the birepresentation is explicitly given. Based on this theorem, various applications are possible. In particular, it was recently shown [6] how the Moufang-Noether current algebras may be constructed so that the corresponding Noether charge algebra turns out to be a birepresentation of the tangent Mal’tsev algebra of an analytic Moufang loop.

  • Note on Analytic Moufang Loops
    Comment.Math.Univ.Carolin. 45,2 (2004)349–354 349 Note on analytic Moufang loops Eugen Paal Abstract. It is explicitly shown how the Lie algebras can be associated with the analytic Moufang loops. The resulting Lie algebra commutation relations are well known from the theory of alternative algebras. Keywords: Moufang loop, Mal’tsev algebra, generalized Maurer-Cartan equations, tri- ality Classification: 20N05, 17D10 1. Moufang loops It is well known how Lie algebras are connected with Lie groups. In the present paper, it is explicitly shown how Lie algebras can be associated with analytic Moufang loops. A Moufang loop [1], [2] is a quasigroup G with the unit element e ∈ G and the Moufang identity (ag)(ha)= a(gh)a, a,g,h ∈ G. Here the multiplication is denoted by juxtaposition. In general, the multiplication need not be associative: gh · a 6= g · ha. The inverse element g−1 of g is defined by gg−1 = g−1g = e. The left (L) and right (R) translations are defined by gh = Lgh = Rhg, g,h ∈ G. Both translations are invertible mappings and −1 −1 Lg = Lg−1 , Rg = Rg−1 . 350 E. Paal 2. Analytic Moufang loops and infinitesimal Moufang translations Following the concept of the Lie group, the notion of an analytic Moufang loop can be easily formulated. A Moufang loop G is said [3] to be analytic if G is also a real analytic manifold and the main operations — multiplication and inversion map g 7→ g−1 — are analytic mappings. Let Te(G) denote the tangent space of G at the unit e.

  • Octonions, Simple Moufang Loops and Triality Contents
    Quasigroups and Related Systems 10 (2003), 65 ¡ 94 Octonions, simple Moufang loops and triality Gábor P. Nagy and Petr Vojt¥chovský Abstract Nonassociative nite simple Moufang loops are exactly the loops constructed by Paige from Zorn vector matrix algebras. We prove this result anew, using geometric loop theory. In order to make the paper accessible to a broader audience, we carefully discuss the connections between composition algebras, simple Moufang loops, simple Moufang 3- nets, S-simple groups and groups with triality. Related results on multiplication groups, automorphisms groups and generators of Paige loops are provided.
