In this paper, we study the structure of certain infinite-dimensional Jordan algebras admitting an inner product. These algebras, called J*-algebras in the sequel, have already been considered in (4) in connexion with the norm uniqueness problem for non-associative algebras. We deal here with the structure and classification of these algebras. Existence of self-adjoint idempotents plays a central role in the classification problem.

Let be a real or complex algebra. Assuming that a vector space is endowed with a pre-Hilbert norm satisfying for all . We prove that is finite dimensional in the following cases. (1) is a real weakly alternative algebra without divisors of zero. (2) is a complex powers associative algebra. (3) is a complex flexible algebraic algebra. (4) is a complex Jordan algebra. In the first case is isomorphic to or and is isomorphic to in the last three cases. These last cases permit us to show that if is a complex pre-Hilbert noncommutative Jordan algebra satisfying for all , then is finite dimensional and is isomorphic to . Moreover, we give an example of an infinite-dimensional real pre-Hilbert Jordan algebra with divisors of zero and satisfying for all .
