Reprint of the original, first published in 1882.

Linear Associative Algebras focuses on finite dimensional linear associative algebras and the Wedderburn structure theorems. The publication first elaborates on semigroups and groups, rings and fields, direct sum and tensor product of rings, and polynomial and matrix rings. The text then ponders on vector spaces, including finite dimensional vector spaces and matrix representation of vectors. The book takes a look at linear associative algebras, as well as the idempotent and nilpotent elements of an algebra, ideals of an algebra, total matrix algebras and the canonical forms of matrices, matrix representation of algebras, and division of algebras. The manuscript also tackles the Wedderburn structure theorems, including direct sum and tensor product decomposition of algebras, nilpotent algebras and the radical of an algebra, and structure of simple and semi-simple algebras. The publication is highly recommended for mathematicians and students interested in the Wedderburn structure theorems and finite dimensional linear associative algebras.

In this book, the author aims to familiarize researchers and graduate students in both physics and mathematics with the application of non-associative algebras in physics.Topics covered by the author range from algebras of observables in quantum mechanics, angular momentum and octonions, division algebra, triple-linear products and YangSHBaxter equations. The author also covers non-associative gauge theoretic reformulation of Einstein's general relativity theory and so on. Much of the material found in this book is not available in other standard works.

Concise graduate-level introductory study presents some of the important ideas and results in the theory of nonassociative algebras. Places particular emphasis on alternative and (commutative) Jordan algebras. 1966 edition.

This book contains the collected works of A. Adrian Albert, a leading algebraist of the twentieth century. Albert made many important contributions to the theory of the Brauer group and central simple algeras, Riemann matrices, nonassociative algebras and other topics. Part 1 focuses on associative algebras and Riemann matrices part 2 on nonassociative algebras and miscellany. Because much of Albert's work remains of vital interest in contemporary research, this volume will interst mathematicians in a variety of areas.
