Description
Summary:碩士 === 逢甲大學 === 應用數學系 === 87 === The primary purpose of this paper is to introduce composition algebra and automorphism of Cayley algebra. We want to make an introduction in Jacobson theorem [1]: Automorphism in quaternion algebra or Cayley algebra is product of reflections. Moreover,it is inner automorphism. Automorphism in split Cayley algebra is product of split reflections. There are three parts in this paper. The first part of this paper is preliminary with reference [2] In the second part, We have discussed composion algebra and the references in note [1], [3], [4], The last part taking note [1] is automorphism in Cayley algebra. How many reflections at least needed in automorphism in quaternion algebra or Cayley algebra written as product of reflections not solved is worthy of studying and researching.
