โฆ Synopsis
The following result on reduced norms of central simple associative algebras has been proved by the author: THEOREM.
Let S/ and .5? be central simple associative algebras of the same degree. Then the reduced norm forms on ,d and 9 are equivalent if and only if&' and .58 are either isomorphic or anti-isomorphic.

A simple complex Lie algebra has a natural grading g = g -2 โg -1 โg 0 โg 1 โg 2 associated to the highest root. It is related to the quaternionic real form of g. The real rank of the associated symmetric space is shown to be at most 4. When the rank is equal to 4 (i.e., g = A n , C n , G 2 ), the s
