On classification up to isotopy of simple 3-dimensional commutative algebras of nil-rank 1
Keywords:
simple 3-dimensional algebra, commutative algebra, nil-element, nil-rank, isotopeAbstract
It is proved that any two simple 3-dimensional unital commutative algebras of nil-rank 1 are isotopic if the ground field is algebraically closed and has characteristic different from 2 and 3. Thus, the classification up to isotopy of simple 3-dimensional unital commutative algebras containing nil-elements of index 2 is completed.
