Group gradings on the Jordan algebra of upper triangular matrices (Q2406396)

This paper deals with group gradings on algebras and continues a research initiated long time ago by Wall, in the middle of the 60's of the past century. The authors describe completely the gradings on the Jordan algebra \(UJ_n\) of the upper triangular matrices of order \(n\) over an infinite field. They start from the fact that the gradings on the (associative) matrix algebras of order \(n\) were completely described by \textit{Yu. A. Bahturin} and \textit{M. V. Zaicev} [Lect. Notes Pure Appl. Math. 235, 101--139 (2003; Zbl 1053.16032)], and similar results were obtained for simple Lie algebras and simple Jordan algebras, but there are few references in the literature about the classification of the gradings on important algebras that are not simple. Indeed, related with Jordan algebras, their principal result states that every group grading on that algebra is either elementary or is of the so-called mirror type. Particularly, for the case \(n = 2\) they generalize a result by \textit{P. Koshlukov} and \textit{F. Martino} [J. Pure Appl. Algebra 216, No. 11, 2524--2532 (2012; Zbl 1287.17053)], and after giving the classification of the elementary gradings on \(UJ_n\) they deal with mirror type gradings and also classify them. Regarding the \(G\)-gradings on \(UJ_n\) they prove that those gradings are uniquely determined, up to a graded isomorphism, by the graded identities they satisfy.
