Abstract

For the pp-dimensional filiform Lie algebra m2(p){\mathfrak m}_2(p) over a field F{\mathbb F} of prime characteristic p5p\ge 5 with nonzero Lie brackets [e1,ei]=ei+1[e_1,e_i] = e_{i+1} for 1<i<p1<i<p and [e2,ei]=ei+2[e_2,e_i]=e_{i+2} for 2<i<p12<i<p-1, we show that there is a family m2λ(p){\mathfrak m}_2^{\lambda}(p) of restricted Lie algebra structures parameterized by elements λFp\lambda \in {\mathbb F}^p. We explicitly describe bases for the ordinary and restricted 1- and 2-cohomology spaces with trivial coefficients, and give formulas for the bracket and [p][p]-operations in the corresponding restricted one-dimensional central extensions.

We use the restricted cochain complex and differentials in arXiv:1801.08178 to complete the analogous calculations for the restricted algebras $\mathfrak{m}_2^{\lambda}(p)$
