Martindale Quotients of Jordan Algebras

In this paper we introduce Martindale quotients of Jordan algebras over arbitrary rings of scalars with respect to denominator filters of ideals. For any denominatored algebra, we show the existence of maximal Martindale quotients naturally containing all Martindale quotients of the algebra with respect to the given denominator filter.
