Extract

The Shirshov-Cohn theorem asserts that in a Jordan algebra (with 1), any subalgebra generated by two elements (and 1) is special. Let J be a Jordan algebra with 1, a, b elements of J and let a1, a2, …, an be invertible elements of J such that

Where

are Jordan polynomials. In [2, p. 425] Jacobson conjectured that for any choice of the Pi the subalgebra of J generated by 1, a, b, a1…, an is special.
