The aim of this note is to present some properties of orthosymmetric bilinear operators which are well known for f -algebra multiplication but despite of their simplicity does not seem appeared in the literature. All unexplained terms can be found in [1] or [13]. All vector lattices under consideration are assumed to be Archimedean.
1. A bilinear operator b : E x E ^ G is called orthosymmetric if x Л y = 0 implies b(x, y) = 0 for all x, y £ E. This definition was introduced in [8]. Recall also that b is said to be symmetric if b(x, y) = b(y, x) for all x, y £ E and positively semidefinite if b(x, x) ^ 0 for every x £ E .In the special case that b is the multiplication of a commutative almost f-algebra the following proposition is presented in [2, Proposition 1.13].
Proposition 1. Let F and G be vector lattices. A positive bilinear operator b from E x E to G is orthosymmetric if and only if b(x, y) = b(x V y, x Л y) for all x, y £ E.
< Orthosymmetry implies b(x — x Л y, y — x Л y) =0. Since a positive orthosymmetric bilinear operastor is symmetric (see [8]), we deduce
b(x, y) = b(x, x Л y) + b(x Л y, y) — b(x Л y, x Л y)
= b(x + y — x Л y,x Л y) = b(x V y, x Л y).
Conversely, if x Л y = 0, then b(x, y) = b(x V y, 0) = 0. >
A bilinear operator b : E x F ^ G is said to be lattice bimorphism if the mappings y ^ b(e, y) (y £ F) and x ^ b(x, f) (x £ E) are lattice homomorphisms for all 0 ^ e £ E and 0 ^ f £ F, see [11]. Evidently, every lattice bimorphism is positive. The following characterization of lattice bimorphism was given in [15].
Proposition 2. For a positive bilinear operator b : E x E ^ G the following assertions are equivalent:
(1) b is a lattice bimorphism;
(2) |b(x, y)| = b(|x|, |y|) for all x £ E and y £ F;

(3) if 0 ^ x, u £ E and 0 ^ y, v £ F satisfy xAu = 0 and y Av = 0, then b(x, y) Ab(u, v) = 0.
2. It was mentioned in [12] that an orthosymmetric positive bilinear operator is positively semidefinite. The converse is also true for lattice bimorphisms as was observed in [7, Proposition 1.7]. The following characterization of symmetric lattice bimorphisms is well known at least for d-algebra multiplication (see, for example, [2, Theorems 4.3, 4.4, 4.5] and [4, Proposition 3.6]).
Theorem 1. Let E and F be vector lattices and let b : E xE ^ F be a lattice bimorphism. Then the following assertions are equivalent:
(1) b is symmetric;
(2) b(x, x) — b(y, y) = b(x — y, x + y) for all x, y £ E;
(3) b(x, x) A b(y, y) ^ b(x, y) ^ b(x, x) V b(y, y) for all x, y £ E+;
(4) b(x A y, x A y) = b(x, x) A b(y, y) and b(x V y, x V y) = b(x, x) V b(y, y) for all x, y £ E+;
(5) x A y = 0 implies b(x, y) = b(y, x) for all x, y £ E;
(6) b(x, |x|) = b(x+, x+) — b(x-, x-) for all x £ E;
(7) b is orthosymmetric;
(8) b is positively semidefinite.
< (1) ^ (2): It is obviously true for every bilinear operator b.
(2) ^ (3): For any x, y £ E+ we deduce making use of (2):
b(x, x) Ab(y, y) — b(x, y) ^ b(x, x) A b(y, y) — b(x A y, x A y)
=[b(x, x) — b(x A y, x A y)] A [b(y, y) — b(x A y, x A y)]
=b(x — x A y, x + x A y) A b(y — x A y, y + x A y)
^b(x — x A y, x + y) A b(y — x A y, x + y)
=b((x — x A y) A (y — x A y), x + y) = 0.
The second inequality is deduced likewise.
(3) ^ (4): Using the first inequality in (3) we can write the following chain of equalities:
b(x, x) A b(y, y) = [b(x, x) A b(x, y)] A [b(y, x) A b(y, y)]
= b(x, x A y) A b(y, x A y) = b(x A y, x A y).
The second equality is deduced likewise.
(4) ^ (5): Take x, y £ E with x A y = 0. By the first equality of (3) b(x, x) and b(y, y) are
disjoint. Using the second equality we have b(x,x) + b(y, y) = b(x V y,x V y) = b(x + y,x + y) = b(x,x) + b(x, y) + b(y, x) + b(y, y), so that b(x, y) = b(y,x) = 0.
(5) ^ (6): It is sufficient to observe that b(x, |x|) — b(x+,x+) + b(x-,x-) = b(x+,x-) —
b(x-, x+).
(6) ^ (7): If b obey (6), then b(x+,x-) and b(x-,x+) coincide, see (5) ^ (6). At the same time these elements are disjoint, since b(x+ ,x-) ^ b(x+, |x|), b(x-,x+) ^ b(x-, |x|) and b(x+, |x|) A b(x-, |x|) = 0. Thus, b(x+,x-) = b(x-,x+) = 0, from which (7) follows
(7) ^ (1): Follows from [8, Corollary 2].
(7) ^ (8): If b is ortosymmetric, then b(x, x) = b(x+,x+) — b(x+,x-) — b(x-,x+) +
b(x-,x-) = b(x+,x+) + b(x-,x-) ^ 0, see [12].
(8) ^ (7): Let b be a positively semidefinite lattice bimorphism. Take x, y £ E and put a := b(x, x), P := b(y, y), 7 := b(x, y) + b(y, x). Then a + ft — 7 = b(x — y, x — y) ^ 0. If x A y = 0, then b(x, y) ^ b(x, y) A b(y, y) = b(x A y, y) =0 and, since b(x, ■) and b(-, x) are lattice homomorphisms, we have a A b(x, y) = b(x, x A y) =0 and a A b(y, x) = b(x A y, x) = 0.
Thus, a ± y and analogously 3 ± 7. Therefore, (a + 3) ± 7, and taking into account the inequality a + 3 — 7 ^ 0 we derive 7 = 0, i.e. b(x, y) = b(y, x) = 0. >
3. Let E be a vector lattice. A pair (E0,0) is said to be a square of E if the following two conditions are fulfilled:
(1) E0 is a vector lattice and 0 is a symmetric lattice bimorphism from E x E to E0,
(2) if b is a symmetric lattice bimorphism from E x E to some vector lattice F, then there exists a unique lattice homomorphism $5 : E0 ^ F with b = $60.
For an arbitrary vector lattice E there exists the square (E0, 0) which is essentially unique, i. e. if some pair (E®, @) obeys (1) and (2) above, then there exists a lattice isomorphism i from E0 onto E® such that i0 = @ (and, of course, i-1@ = 0), see [10]. Moreover (see [10] and [7, Theorem 3.1]), for every positive bilinear orthoregular operator b : E x E ^ G there exists a unique linear regular operator $5 : E0 ^ G such that
b(x, y) = $b(x 0 y) (x,y £ E).
The symmetric lattice bimorphism 0 : E x E ^ E0 is called the canonical bimorphism of the square. The operator $5 is called the linearization of b via square. If E is a sublattice of a semiprime /-algebra A, then the canonical bimorphism 0 can be expressed in terms of the algebra multiplication, see [7, Proposition 2.5].
Proposition 3. Let A be a semiprime /-algebra with a multiplication • and E be a sublattice of A. Then there exists a sublattice F C A and an isomorphism 1 from E0 onto F such that i(x 0 y) = x • y for all x, y £ E. In other words, the pair (F, •) is a square of E.
4. A vector lattice E is called square-mean closed if the set {(cos 9)x + (sin 9)y : 0 ^ 9 < 2n} has a supremum s(x, y) in E for all x, y £ E .A vector lattice E is called geometric-mean closed if the set {(t/2)x + (1/2t)y : 0 < t < +<^} has an infimum g(x, y) in E for all x, y £ E+. The following result see in [5, Theorems 3.1 and 3.4].
Proposition 4. If A is a square-mean closed Archimedean /-algebra, then
s(x,y)2 = x2 + y2 (x, y £ A).
If A is a geometric-mean closed Archimedean /-algebra, then
g(x,y)2 = xy (x, y £ A+).
Every relatively uniformly complete vector lattice is square-mean closed and geometric-mean closed [5, Theorems 3.3]. However, neither a square-mean closed nor a geometric-mean closed Archimedean vector lattice need not be uniformly complete. But a geometric-mean closed Archimedean f-algebra is square-mean closed [5, Theorem 3.6]. The following result is a generalization of Proposition 4.
Theorem 2. Let E and F be vector lattices and b : E x E ^ F a positive orthosymmetric bilinear operator. If E is square-mean closed, then
s(x, y) 0 s(x, y) = x 0 x + y 0 y, b(s(x,y),s(x,y)) = b(x,x) + b(y, y)
for all x, y £ E. If E is geometric-mean closed, then for all x, y £ E+ we have
fl(x,y) 0 g(x,y) = x 0 y, b(g(x,y), g(x,y)) = b(x, y).
< In each of two cases under consideration the second equality follows from the first one by applying $b, the linearization via square of b. Let A denotes the universal completion of E endowed with a semiprime /-algebra multiplication. Then by Proposition 3 there is a lattice isomorphism i of E0 onto a sublattice F C A. At the same time, according to Proposition 4, the following equalities are true in A:
s(x,y) • s(x,y)= x • x + y • y (x, y £ E), g(x,y) • g(x,y)= x • y (x,y £ E+).
Now, the first equalities are immediate by applying i-1, since s(x, y) £ E and g(x,y) £ E under the stated hypotheses and i-1(x • y) = x 0 y. >
5. In conclusion we present some corollaries to Theorem 2.
Corollary 1. Let E and F be vector lattices with E square-mean closed and b : E x E ^ F be a positive orthosymmetric bilinear operator. Then E+ := {b(x,x) : x £ E} is a convex pointed cone and E(5) := b(E x E) is a vector subspace of F ordered by a positive cone E+ such that E(5) = E+ — E^. If, in addition, b is a lattice bimorphism, then E(5) is a vector sublattice of F.
< The first part of Theorem 2 implies that E+ C F+ is a pointed cone. The equalities b(x, y) = (1/4)[b(x + y, x + y) — b(x — y, x — y)]) and b(x, x) — b(y, y) = b(x + y, x — y) show that E(5) = E+5) — E+5). Thus, (E(5), E+5)) is an ordered vector space. If b is a lattice bimorphism,
then E+5) is a sublattice of F+ in virtue of Theorem 1 (2). >
For an almost /-algebra multiplication this result was obtained in [4, Prposition 3.3, Corollary 3.7]. The first statement of the following corollary was proved in [9, Lemma 8] in case of uniformly complete E.
Corollary 2. Let E be a square-mean closed vector lattice. The the assertions hold:
(1) E0 = {x 0 y : x, y £ E} and E+0 = {x 0 x : x £ E};
(2) If F = h(E), then F0 = h0 (E0) for any vector lattice F and lattice homomorphism h : E ^ F;
(3) If J is a uniformly closed order ideal of E, then J0 := {x 0 y : |x| A |y| £ J} is a uniformly closed order ideal of E0 and the map x 0 y + J0 ^ (x + J) 0 (y + J) implements a lattice isomorphism of E0/J0 onto (E/J)0.
< (1) Put b:= 0 in Corollary 1 and observe that E0 = E( 5), since E0 coincides with the sublattice generated by b(E x E) = {x 0 y : x, y £ E}.
(2) If h : F ^ E is a lattice homomorphism then by [7, Proposition 2.4] there exists a lattice homomorphism h0 : F0 ^ E0 such that h0(x 0 y) = h(x) 0 h(y) (x, y £ F). Assume that T(E) = F. Then making use of by (1) we deduce
E0 = {h(x) 0 h(y) : x, y £ F} = {h0(x 0 y) : x, y £ F) C h0(F0) C E0.
(3): If 0 : E ^ E/J is a quotient homomorphism, then 00 is a surjective map from E0 to (E/J)0 by (2). According to (1) any u £ E0 have the representation u = x 0 y for some x,y £ E and 0 = 00(u) = 0(x) 0 0(y) implies 0(x) ± 0(y) by [7, Theorem 2.1 (3)]. But the latter is equivalent to |x| A |y| £ J, since 0 is a lattice homomorphism. Thus, J0 = ker(00) and the proof is complete. >
Corollary 3. Let E and F be vector lattices with E square-mean closed and let b : E x E ^ F be an order bounded orthosymmetric bilinear operator. Then for any finite collections x1, yi,..., xn, yN £ E there exist u, v £ E such that N=1 b(x&, y&) = b(u, v).
< According to Corollary 1(1) there exist u, v £ E such that u 0 v = ^^=1 x^ 0 y&. Now, if b = $ 0 for a linear operator $ from E0 to F, then
/ N \ N
b(u, v) = $b(u 0 v) = $5 I 0 yfc = ^ b(xfc,yk)
V ^=1 / ^=1
which is the desired representation. >
