Book Synopsis Octonions, Jordan Algebras, and Exceptional Groups by : Tonny A. Springer

Download or read book Octonions, Jordan Algebras, and Exceptional Groups written by Tonny A. Springer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2000-05-16 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1963 Göttingen notes of T. A. Springer are well-known in the field but have been unavailable for some time. This book is a translation of those notes, completely updated and revised. The part of the book dealing with the algebraic structures is on a fairly elementary level, presupposing basic results from algebra. In the group-theoretical part use is made of some results from the theory of linear algebraic groups. The book will be useful to mathematicians interested in octonion algebras and Albert algebras, or in exceptional groups. It is suitable for use in a graduate course in algebra.
