Abstract

For every field FF which has a quadratic extension EE we show there are non-metabelian infinite-dimensional thin graded Lie algebras all of whose homogeneous components, except the second one, have dimension 22. We construct such Lie algebras as FF-subalgebras of Lie algebras MM of maximal class over EE. We characterise the thin Lie FF-subalgebras of MM generated in degree 11. Moreover we show that every thin Lie algebra LL whose ring of graded endomorphisms of degree zero of L3L^3 is a quadratic extension of FF can be obtained in this Lie algebra of maximal class over EE which are ideally rr-constrained for a positive integer rr.
