We construct a convenient basis for all real semisimple Lie algebras by means of an adapted Chevalley basis of the complexification. It determines rational and in fact half-integer structure constants which we express only in terms of the…

We study Lie algebra prederivations. A Lie algebra admitting a non-singular prederivation is nilpotent. We classify filiform Lie algebras admitting a non-singular prederivation but no non-singular derivation. We prove that any 4-step…

In this paper we classify filiform associative algebras of degree $k$ over a field of characteristic zero. Moreover, we also classify naturally graded complex filiform and quasi-filiform nilpotent associative algebras which are described by…

We study the quotient Q_i(A) of a free algebra A by the ideal M_i(A) generated by relation that the i-th commutator of any elements is zero. In particular, we completely describe such quotient for i=4 (for i<=3 this was done previously by…

We study the algebraic constraints on the structure of nilpotent Lie algebra $\mathbb{g}$, which arise because of the presence of an integrable complex structure $J$. Particular attention is paid to non-abelian complex structures.…

The primary goal of this paper is to explicitly write down all semisimple dual pairs in the exceptional Lie algebras. (A dual pair in a reductive Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ is a pair of subalgebras such that each member equals the other's…

A Lie algebra L is known to be nilpotent if it admits a grading by (Zp, +) with support X not containing 0. It is also known that the class of L can be bounded by some explicit function of |X|. We generalise this and other classical results…

First, we construct some families of nonsolvable anticommutative algebras, solvable Lie algebras and even nilpotent Lie algebras, that can be endowed with the structure of a simple Hom-Lie algebra. This situation shows that a classification…

We illustrate an algorithm to classify nice nilpotent Lie algebras of dimension $n$ up to a suitable notion of equivalence; applying the algorithm, we obtain complete listings for $n\leq9$. On every nilpotent Lie algebra of dimension $\leq…

We study post-Lie algebra structures on pairs of Lie algebras $(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{n})$, motivated by nil-affine actions of Lie groups. We prove existence results for such structures depending on the interplay of the algebraic…

We prove some isomorphisms between exceptional W-algebras associated with exceptional simple Lie algebras.

Given a sequence $\vec d=(d_1,\dots,d_k)$ of natural numbers, we consider the Lie subalgebra $\mathfrak{h}$ of $\mathfrak{gl}(d,\mathbb{F})$, where $d=d_1+\cdots +d_k$ and $\mathbb{F}$ is a field of characteristic 0, generated by two block…

W-algebra (of finite type) W is a certain associative algebra associated with a semisimple Lie algebra, say g, and its nilpotent element, say e. The goal of this paper is to study the category O for W introduced by Brundan, Goodwin and…

Let g be a semisimple Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic 0 and O be a nilpotent orbit in g. Then Orb is a symplectic algebraic variety and one can ask whether it is possible to quantize $\Orb$ (in an…

It is shown that the classification theorems for semisimple algebraic groups in characteristic zero can be derived quite simply and naturally from the corresponding theorems for Lie algebras by using a little of the theory of tensor…

We show that a Lie algebra having a nilpotent radical has a fundamental set of invariants consisting of Casimir operators. We give a different proof of this fact in the special and well-known case where the radical is abelian.

We provide a classification of congruence-simple semirings with a multiplicatively absorbing element and without non-trivial nilpotent elements.
