The product of any number of Legendre functions, under a restricted domain, can be expanded by the corresponding Legendre polynomials, with the coefficient being the sinc function. While an analogous expansion can be made for any number of Gengenbauer functions, it is not allowed for more than two Jacobi functions. To obtain such an expansion, the sampling theorem is of great availability., Comment: 9 pages

From an injective map between the mass of the meson 16-plet and the eigenvalue of the right multiplication in the Cayley-Dickson algebra, we obtain the mass formula as 2 m_{D_s} = m_{eta_c} + m_{eta'}, which is in excellent agreement with experiment., Comment: 9 pages, 1 figure, to be published in Nuovo Cimento B

We calculate the eigenvalue \rho of the multiplication mapping R on the Cayley-Dickson algebra A_n. If the element in A_n is composed of a pair of alternative elements in A_{n-1}, half the eigenvectors of R in A_n are still eigenvectors in the subspace which is isomorphic to A_{n-1}. The invariant under the reciprocal transformation A_n \times A_{n} \ni (x,y) -> (-y,x) plays a fundamental role in simplifying the functional form of \rho. If some physical field can be identified with the eigenspace of R, with an injective map from the field to a scalar quantity (such as a mass) m, then there is a one-to-one map \pi: m \mapsto \rho. As an example, the electro-weak gauge field can be regarded as the eigenspace of R, where \pi implies that the W-boson mass is less than the Z-boson mass, as in the standard model., Comment: To be published in J.

We rewrite the Born-Infeld Lagrangian, which is originally given by the determinant of a $4 \times 4$ matrix composed of the metric tensor $g$ and the field strength tensor $F$, using the determinant of a $(4 \cdot 2^n) \times (4 \cdot 2^n)$ matrix $H_{4 \cdot 2^{n}}$. If the elements of $H_{4 \cdot 2^{n}}$ are given by the linear combination of $g$ and $F$, it is found, based on the representation matrix for the multiplication operator of the Cayley-Dickson algebras, that $H_{4 \cdot 2^{n}}$ is distinguished by a single parameter, where distinguished matrices are not similar matrices. We also give a reasonable condition to fix the paramete
