Abstract

In this paper, thinspace thinspace we generalize the concepts of thinspace\nlevel thinspace and thinspace sublevel of a composition algebra to algebras\nobtained by the Cayley-Dickson process. In 1967, R. B. Brown constructed, for\neveryt\∈ \ℕ, small % a division algebraAt small of\ndimension2t small over the power-series\nfieldK X1,X2,...,Xt . , small This gives us the possibility to\nconstruct a division algebra of thinspace dimension thinspace\n2t , small and prescribed thinspace level and sublevel thinspace\n thinspace 2k small , thinspace thinspacek, ,t\∈ Bbb%\nN* small and a division algebra of thinspace dimension thinspace%\n2t+1,t\∈ \ℕ , small and prescribed thinspace level and sublevel%\n ,2k+1,k\∈ \ℕ. , medskip \n
