Medial and isospectral algebras

The purpose of this paper is to give a systematic study of two new classes of commutative nonassociative algebras, the so-called isospectral and medial algebras. An isospectral algebra $\mathbb{A}$ is a generic commutative nonassociative algebra whose idempotents have the same Peirce spectrum. A medial algebra is algebra with identity $(xy)(zw)=(xz)(yw)$. We show that these two classes are essentially coincide. We also prove that any medial spectral algebra is isomorphic to a certain isotopic deformation of the commutative associative quotient algebra $\mathbf{K}[z]/(z^n-1)$.

Idempotent geometry in generic algebras

Using the syzygy method, established in our earlier paper, we characterize the combinatorial stratification of the variety of two-dimensional real generic algebras. We show that there exist exactly three different homotopic types of such algebras and relate this result to potential applications and known facts from qualitative theory of quadratic ODEs. The genericity condition is crucial. For example, the idempotent geometry in Clifford algebras or Jordan algebras of Clifford type is very different: such algebras always contain nontrivial submanifolds of idempotents.

Variety of idempotents in nonassociative algebras

In this paper, we study the variety of all nonassociative (NA) algebras from the idempotent point of view. We are interested, in particular, in the spectral properties of idempotents when algebra is generic, i.e. idempotents are in general position. Our main result states that in this case, there exist at least $n-1$ nontrivial obstructions (syzygies) on the Peirce spectrum of a generic NA algebra of dimension $n$. We also discuss the exceptionality of the eigenvalue $λ=\frac12$ which appears in the spectrum of idempotents in many classical examples of NA algebras and characterize its extremal properties in metrised algebras.
