 Tensor product - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It means that if a pair of tensors are juxtaposed (placed side-by-side) then they combine by mere aggregation to form a new tensor which can be subsequently called the tensor product of the pair of juxtaposed tensors.
The tensor product inherits all the indices of its factors.
In J the tensor product is the dyadic form of */ (for example a */ b or a */ b */ c).

 ZeroDivisor Algebras, Charles Muses
To maintain algebraic consistency with the split-quaternionic structure of 1, i, e, and f, pure 1 and pure i matrices should be in the same subspace and pure e and pure f matrices should be in the same subspace.
New algebraic phenomena that appear in dimensions 128 and 256, the existence of nonzero a such that a^2 = 0 in 128 dimensions and a^4 = 0 for a^2 =/= 0 and a^3 =/= 0 in 256 dimensions, are related to the appearance of spinors that are not pure.
The 128-dimensional algebra is related to the 126 = 28+70+28 (128-2=7+21+35+35+21+7 = dim of Cl(7) - scalar and pseudoscalar) root vectors of the 133-dimensional Lie algebra E7.

For example when K is the real number field R, the Brauer group Br(R) is a cyclic group of order two: there are just two types of division algebra, R and the quaternion algebra H.

 Group scheme - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There are numerous examples familiar in algebra, including the general linear group, and elliptic curves.
The theory of commutative group varieties occupies the place in theory that was investigated in nineteenth century mathematics, in the search for the most general addition theorems.
Every algebraic torus and abelian variety is part of the theory, as are group extensions formed from both kinds of object (which have been called quasi-abelian varieties), used in the theory of differential forms (of the second kind and third kind, in classical terminology), and the geometric forms of class field theory.

 SET THEORY, QUANTUM SET THEORY & CLIFFORD ALGEBRAS
A Boolean algebra is not at all what one would call an "algebra" in the modern sense of a vector space over a field with a multiplication defined as a binary operation on the vectors.
The difference here, however, is that the spin algebra is complexified, so that instead of a three dimensional su(2) algebra, we have an eight real dimensional M(2) algebra which is a gl(2, C) algebra to describe a Qpoint with irreducible quantum extension resulting from the incompressibility of the Planck extensions of space and time.
The cheat is resolved by taking a direct (tensor) product of n copies of SU(2) instead of C because there are independent yes-no classical (dichotomic) independent choices for the occupation of each container.

 AMCA: Tensor product of modules over non-unital algebras and Lie-Rinehart algebras by Jan Kubarski   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
If we consider the typical situation where the base ring R is unital, then non-unitality of the R-algebra A means that there is no homomorphism of rings l:R->A such that l(r)a=ra=al(r).
There are some simple anomalies in the theory of A -modules over non-unital R-algebra A which caused that the planned researches on Lie-Rinehart algebras for algebras not necessarily with 1 failed.
The aim of this paper is to construct the notion of a tensor product of modules over non-unital algebras which does not possesses the anomalies and its applications for the Picard group of non-unital algebras and Lie-Rinehart algebras.

The product in the Brauer group is based on the tensor product : the statement that H has order two in thegroup is equivalent to the existence of an isomorphism of R-algebras
In order to define the Brauer group, one calls acentral simple algebra (CSA) over K a finite-dimensional (associative) algebra K which is a simple ring, and for which the center is exactly K.
A slick way tosee this is to use a characterisation: a central simple algebra over K is a K-algebra that becomes a matrixring when we extend the field of scalars to an algebraic closure of K.

 Current Commutation Relations, Continuous Tensor Products and Infinitely Divisible Group Representations, by R. F. ...
Dubin and I had already shown that in general, continuous tensor products of cyclic group representations do not exist.
In the trivial case when the group is R, then the generator of the group defines a random variable, and the cyclic vector defines a probability measure on the line; then the theory reduces to the concept of infinite-divisibility of this measure.
The theory can be easily reformulated in terms of infinitely divisible positive-definite functions on groups, namely, the expectation of the unitary operators representing the group in the cyclic vector (known as the characteristic function of the cyclic representation), which is always a positive semi-definite continuous function on the group.

We show that if the continuous tensor product of a representation of the Lie algebra exists, then we get a representation of the current algebra by differentiation.
It is remarked that continuous tensor products exist for several representations of the oscillator group, and that the corresponding currents are Boson quantum fields.
