%0 Journal Article %A Ancochea Bermúdez, José María %A Fresán, Javier %A Sánchez Hernández, Jonathan %T On the variety of two dimensional real associative algebras %D 2007 %@ 1312-7586 %U https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/50553 %X This paper consists of a description of the variety of two dimensional associative algebras within the framework of Nonstandard Analysis. By decomposing each algebra in A2 as sum of a Jordan algebra and a Lie algebra, we calculate th isomorphism classes of two dimensional associative algebras over the eld of real numbers and determine the open components and the contractions of the variety. %~
