Anticommutator

Let 𝐴 be a 𝕂-ring. The anticommutator is a Jordan product defined by #m/def/ralg

{𝑥,𝑦}=𝑥𝑦+𝑦𝑥

The anticommutator algebra or associated Jordan algebra is denoted 𝐴+, and a version with a renormalized product ( ) ( ) =12{ , } is denoted 𝐴+1/2, so that 𝑥2 agree in 𝐴 and 𝐴+1/2. See also Commutator and Supercommutator.
