On polynomial identities in associative and Jordan pairs

We prove that a Jordan system satisfies a polynomial identity if and only if it satisfies a homotope polynomial identity. In obtaining that result, we also prove an analogue for associative pairs with involution of Amitsur's theorem on associative algebras satisfying a polynomial identity with involution. We apply the result on Jordan pairs to obtain analogues of Kaplansky's and Rowen's theorems for Jordan pairs that satisfy a polynomial identity.
