Variety of idempotents in nonassociative algebras

preprint2018arXivOpen access

Abstract

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−1n-1 nontrivial obstructions (syzygies) on the Peirce spectrum of a generic NA algebra of dimension nn. We also discuss the exceptionality of the eigenvalue λ=12λ=\frac12 which appears in the spectrum of idempotents in many classical examples of NA algebras and characterize its extremal properties in metrised algebras.
