We provide an infinite family of counterexamples to the conjecture of Zassenhaus on the solvability of the outer derivation algebra of a simple modular Lie algebra. In fact, we show that the simple modular Lie algebras $H(2;(1,n))^{(2)}$ of…

A Lie superalgebra is attached to any finite-dimensional J-ternary algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 3, using a process of semisimplification via tensor categories. Some of the exceptional simple Lie algebras,…

For a field K and directed graph E, we analyze those elements of the Leavitt path algebra L_K(E) which lie in the commutator subspace [L_K(E), L_K(E)]. This analysis allows us to give easily computable necessary and sufficient conditions to…

Let G be a finite group. The Plesken Lie algebra L[G] is a subalgebra of the complex group algebra C[G] and admits a direct-sum decomposition into simple Lie algebras based on the ordinary character theory of G. In this paper we review the…

Let $L$ be a restricted Cartan type Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>3$, and let $G$ denote the automorphism group of $L$. We prove that there are no nontrivial invariants of $L^*$ under the coadjoint…

Let $P$ be an arbitrary partially ordered set, $R$ a commutative ring with identity and $FI(P,R)$ the finitary incidence algebra of $P$ over $R$. Under some natural assumption on $R$, we prove that each Lie-type derivation of $FI(P,R)$ is…

A way to construct (conjecturally all) simple finite dimensional modular Lie (super)algebras over algebraically closed fields of characteristic not 2 is offered. In characteristic 2, the method is supposed to give only simple Lie…

An $n$-dimensional Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ over a field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic two is said to be of Vergne type if there is a basis $e_1,\dots,e_n$ such that $[e_1,e_i]=e_{i+1}$ for all $2\leq i \leq n-1$ and $[e_i,e_j] =…

Building on work of Gerstenhaber, we show that the space of integrable derivations on an Artin algebra $A$ forms a Lie algebra, and a restricted Lie algebra if $A$ contains a field of characteristic $p$. We deduce that the space of…

We introduce the concept of a $\delta$-superderivation of a superalgebra. $\delta$-Derivations of Cartan-type Lie superalgebras are treated, as well as $\delta$-superderivations of simple finite-dimensional Lie superalgebras and Jordan…

In this paper we study the isomorphism problem for the universal enveloping algebras of nilpotent Lie algebras. We prove that if the characteristic of the underlying field is not~2 or~3, then the isomorphism type of a nilpotent Lie algebra…

Two new simple modular Lie superalgebras are obtained in characteristics 3 and 5, which share the property that their even parts are orthogonal Lie algebras and the odd parts their spin modules. The characteristic 5 case is shown to be…
