Abstract
We study the variety of complex -dimensional Jordan algebras using techniques from Geometric Invariant Theory. More specifically, we use the Kirwan–Ness theorem to construct a Morse-type stratification of the variety of Jordan algebras into finitely many invariant locally closed subsets, with respect to the energy functional associated to the canonical moment map. In particular we obtain a new, cohomology-free proof of the well-known rigidity of semisimple Jordan algebras in the context of the variety of Jordan algebras.
期刊介绍：
With traditional boundaries between various specialized fields of mathematics becoming less and less visible, Communications in Contemporary Mathematics (CCM) presents the forefront of research in the fields of: Algebra, Analysis, Applied Mathematics, Dynamical Systems, Geometry, Mathematical Physics, Number Theory, Partial Differential Equations and Topology, among others. It provides a forum to stimulate interactions between different areas. Both original research papers and expository articles will be published.
