Jacobson proved that if a Lie algebra admits an invertible derivation, it must be nilpotent. He also suspected, though incorrectly, that the converse might be true: that every nilpotent Lie algebra has an invertible derivation. We prove…

We investigate Lie algebras whose Lie bracket is also an associative or cubic associative multiplication to characterize the class of nilpotent Lie algebras with a nilindex equal to 2 or 3. In particular we study the class of 2-step…

In this paper, we investigate nilpotent Lie algebras $ L $ of nilpotency class $3 $ and provide a complete classification of those satisfying $ \dim L^2 = 3 $ and $Z(L) = L^3 \cong A(2). $ Furthermore, we explicitly characterize the…

We study the problem of the infinitesimal deformations of all real, simple, finite-dimensional Filippov (or n-Lie) algebras, considered as a class of n-Leibniz algebras characterized by having an n-bracket skewsymmetric in its n-1 first…

We study the algebras of derivations of nilpotent Leibniz algebras of low dimensions.

All solvable Lie algebras with Heisenberg nilradical have already been classified. We extend this result to a classification of solvable Leibniz algebras with Heisenberg nilradical. As an example, we show the complete classification of all…

This paper is a contribution to the development of the non associative algebras theory. More precisely, this work deals with the classification of the complex 4-dimensional Leibniz algebras. Note that the classification of 4-dimensional…

In the paper we describe the derivations of complex $n$-dimensional naturally graded filiform Leibniz algebras $NGF_1, NGF_2\ \text{and} \ \ NGF_3.$ We show that the dimension of the derivation algebras of $NGF_1$ and $NGF_2$ equals $n+1$…

For each complex 8-dimensional filiform Lie algebra we find another non isomorphic Lie algebra that degenerates to it. Since this is already known for nilpotent Lie algebras of rank $\ge 1$, only the caracteristically nilpotent ones should…

In the first section we recall some basic notions on Lie algebras. In a second time we study the algebraic variety of complex $n$-dimensional Lie algebras. We present different notions of deformations : Gerstenhaber deformations,…

In this paper we study non-nilpotent non-Lie Leibniz $\mathbb{F}$-algebras with one-dimensional derived subalgebra, where $\mathbb{F}$ is a field with $\operatorname{char}(\mathbb{F}) \neq 2$. We prove that such an algebra is isomorphic to…

Leibniz algebras are certain generalization of Lie algebras. In this paper we give classification of non-Lie solvable (left) Leibniz algebras of dimension $\leq 8$ with one dimensional derived subalgebra. We use the canonical forms for the…

We study the moduli space of four dimensional ordinary Lie algebras, and their versal deformations. Their classification is well known; our focus in this paper is on the deformations, which yield a picture of how the moduli space is…

We investigate almost inner derivations of some finite-dimensional nilpotent Leibniz algebras. We show the existence of almost inner derivations of Leibniz filiform non-Lie algebras differing from inner derivations, we also show that the…

For most complex 9-dimensional filiform Lie algebra we find another non isomorphic Lie algebra that degenerates to it. Since this is already known for nilpotent Lie algebras of rank $\geq 1$, only the characteristically nilpotent ones…

We describe degenerations of four-dimensional Zinbiel and four-dimensional nilpotent Leibniz algebras over C. In particular, we describe all irreducible components in the corresponding varieties.

We compare by a very elementary approach the second adjoint and trivial Leibniz cohomology spaces of a Lie algebra to the usual ones. Examples are given of coupled cocycles. Some properties are deduced as to Leibniz deformations. We also…

In this article, we introduce a deformation cohomology of Leibniz superalgebras. Also, we introduce formal deformation theory of Leibniz superalgebras. Using deformation cohomology we study the formal deformation theory of Leibniz…

A converse to Lie's theorem for Leibniz algebras is found and generalized. The result is used to find cases in which the generalized property, called triangulable, is 2-recognizeable; that is, if all 2-generated subalgebras are…

Leibniz algebras are certain generalization of Lie algebras. In this paper we give the classification of $5-$dimensional complex non-Lie nilpotent Leibniz algebras. We use the canonical forms for the congruence classes of matrices of…
