Sergey Malev, Roman Yavich, Roee Shayer

TL;DR
This paper proves the generalized Kaplansky conjecture for specific Jordan algebras, showing that the image of multilinear polynomials is limited to certain subspaces, thus advancing understanding of polynomial behavior in algebraic structures.
Contribution
It establishes the generalized Kaplansky conjecture for Jordan algebras of type J_n, including self-adjoint matrices over various fields, identifying possible polynomial images.
Findings
The image of multilinear polynomials is either {0}, R, V, or J_n.
The result applies to self-adjoint 2x2 matrices over R, C, H, and Oct.
Provides a classification of polynomial images in these Jordan algebras.
Abstract
In this paper we prove the generalized Kaplansky conjecture for the Jordan algebras of the type in particular for self adjoint matrices over , over , and . In fact, we prove that the image of multilinear polynomial must be either , , the space of pure elements , or .
