Abstract: A Majorana algebra is a commutative nonassociative real algebra generated by a finite set of idempotents, called Majorana axes, that satisfy some of the properties of the $2A$-axes of the Monster Griess algebra. The term was introduced by A. A. Ivanov in 2009 inspired by the work of S. Sakuma and M. Miyamoto. In the present paper, we revisit Mayer and Neutsch's theorem on associative subalgebras of the Griess algebra in the context of Majorana theory. We apply this result to determine all the maximal associative subalgebras of some low-dimensional Majorana algebras; namely, the Majorana algebras generated by two Majorana axes and the Majorana representations of the symmetric group of degree $4$ involving $3C$-algebras.
