Mutation (algebra) - Wikipedia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the theory of algebras over a field, mutation is a construction of a new binary operation related to the multiplication of the algebra. In specific cases the resulting algebra may be referred to as a homotope or an isotope of the original.

Let A be an algebra over a field F with multiplication (not assumed to be associative) denoted by juxtaposition. For an element a of A, define the left a-homotope A ( a ) {\displaystyle A(a)} to be the algebra with multiplication

x ∗ y = ( x a ) y . {\displaystyle x*y=(xa)y.\,}

Similarly define the left (a,b) mutation A ( a , b ) {\displaystyle A(a,b)}

x ∗ y = ( x a ) y − ( y b ) x . {\displaystyle x*y=(xa)y-(yb)x.\,}

Right homotope and mutation are defined analogously. Since the right (p,q) mutation of A is the left (−q, −p) mutation of the opposite algebra to A, it suffices to study left mutations.^[1]

If A is a unital algebra and a is invertible, we refer to the isotope by a.

• If A is associative then so is any homotope of A, and any mutation of A is Lie-admissible.
• If A is alternative then so is any homotope of A, and any mutation of A is Malcev-admissible.^[1]
• Any isotope of a Hurwitz algebra is isomorphic to the original.^[1]
• A homotope of a Bernstein algebra by an element of non-zero weight is again a Bernstein algebra.^[2]

A Jordan algebra is a commutative algebra satisfying the Jordan identity ( x y ) ( x x ) = x ( y ( x x ) ) {\displaystyle (xy)(xx)=x(y(xx))} . The Jordan triple product is defined by

{ a , b , c } = ( a b ) c + ( c b ) a − ( a c ) b . {\displaystyle \{a,b,c\}=(ab)c+(cb)a-(ac)b.\,}

For y in A the mutation^[3] or homotope^[4] A^y is defined as the vector space A with multiplication

a ∘ b = { a , y , b } . {\displaystyle a\circ b=\{a,y,b\}.\,}

and if y is invertible this is referred to as an isotope. A homotope of a Jordan algebra is again a Jordan algebra: isotopy defines an equivalence relation.^[5] If y is nuclear then the isotope by y is isomorphic to the original.^[6]
