The Hafnian and a Commutative Analogue of the Grassmann Algebra

چکیده
A close relationship between the determinant, the pfaffian, and the Grassmann algebra is well-known. In this paper, a similar relation between the permanent, the hafnian, and a commutative analogue of the Grassmann algebra is described. Using the latter, some new properties of the hafnian are proved.

Commutative pseudo BE-algebras
The aim of this paper is to introduce the notion of commutative pseudo BE-algebras and investigate their properties.We generalize some results proved by A. Walendziak for the case of commutative BE-algebras.We prove that the class of commutative pseudo BE-algebras is equivalent to the class of commutative pseudo BCK-algebras. Based on this result, all results holding for commutative pseudo BCK-...
متن کاملCommutative subalgebras of the Grassmann algebra
The maximal dimension of a commutative subalgebra of the Grassmann algebra is determined. It is shown that for any commutative subalgebra there exists an equidimensional commutative subalgebra spanned by monomials. It follows that the maximal dimension of a commutative subalgebra can be expressed in terms of the maximal size of an intersecting system of subsets of odd size in a finite set. 2010...
متن کاملTernary generalizations of Grassmann algebra
We propose the ternary generalization of the classical anti-commutativity and study the algebras whose generators are ternary anti-commutative. The integral over an algebra with an arbitrary number of generators N is defined and the formula of a change of variables is proved. In analogy with the fermion integral we define an analogue of the Pfaffian for a cubic matrix by means of Gaussian type ...
متن کاملMatrix representations of finitely generated Grassmann algebras and some consequences
We prove that the m-generated Grassmann algebra can be embedded into a 2 × 2 matrix algebra over a factor of a commutative polynomial algebra in m indeterminates. Cayley–Hamilton and standard identities for n× n matrices over the m-generated Grassmann algebra are derived from this embedding. Other related embedding results are also presented.
متن کاملMultiplication operators on Banach modules over spectrally separable algebras
Let $mathcal{A}$ be a commutative Banach algebra and $mathscr{X}$ be a left Banach $mathcal{A}$-module. We study the set ${rm Dec}_{mathcal{A}}(mathscr{X})$ of all elements in $mathcal{A}$ which induce a decomposable multiplication operator on $mathscr{X}$. In the case $mathscr{X}=mathcal{A}$, ${rm Dec}_{mathcal{A}}(mathcal{A})$ is the well-known Apostol algebra of $mathcal{A}$. We s...
