Higher Identities for the Ternary Commutator

چکیده
We use computer algebra to study polynomial identities for the trilinear operation [a, b, c] = abc − acb − bac + bca + cab − cba in the free associative algebra. It is known that [a, b, c] satisfies the alternating property in degree 3, no new identities in degree 5, a multilinear identity in degree 7 which alternates in 6 arguments, and no new identities in degree 9. We use the representation theory of the symmetric group to demonstrate the existence of new identities in degree 11. The only irreducible representations of dimension < 400 with new identities correspond to partitions 251 and 2413 and have dimensions 132 and 165. We construct an explicit new multilinear identity for partition 251 and we demonstrate the existence of a new non-multilinear identity in which the underlying variables are permutations of a2b2c2d2e2f .

Z3-graded analogues of Clifford algebras and generalization of supersymmetry
We define and study the ternary analogues of Clifford algebras. It is proved that the ternary Clifford algebra with N generators is isomorphic to the subalgebra of the elements of grade zero of the ternary Clifford algebra with N+1 generators. In the case N = 3 the ternary commutator of cubic matrices induced by the ternary commutator of the elements of grade zero is derived. We apply the terna...

If n is any positive integer, then an n-algebra is a vector space A over a field F together with a linear map v : Amn a A, where Amn denotes the n-fold tensor power of A. In the case n s 3 we say that A is a ternary Ž . algebra or triple system . To simplify notation, we write a a ??? a 1 2 n Ž .

متن کاملTernary analogues of Lie and Malcev algebras
We consider two analogues of associativity for ternary algebras: total and partial associativity. Using the corresponding ternary associators, we define ternary analogues of alternative and assosymmetric algebras. On any ternary algebra the alternating sum [a, b, c] = abc − acb − bac + bca + cab − cba (the ternary analogue of the Lie bracket) defines a structure of an anticommutative ternary al...
