We present an overview of characteristic identities for Lie algebras and superalgebras. We outline methods that employ these characteristic identities to deduce matrix elements of finite dimensional representations. To demonstrate the…
We study the subspace of the exterior algebra of a simple complex Lie algebra linearly spanned by the copies of the little adjoint representation or, in the case of the Lie algebra of traceless matrices, by the copies of the n-th symmetric…
This article is the second in the series and is devoted to the type G_2. The work consists of two parts. In the first part we calculate the structure constants of the complex simple Lie algebra of type G_2. All structure constants are…
In this paper we give a complete classification of cyclically graded semisimple Lie algebras that afford cuspidal character sheaves and determine the support of the cuspidal character sheaves. This constitutes a major step towards the…
We show that Automorphic Lie Algebras which contain a Cartan subalgebra with a constant spectrum, called hereditary, are completely described by 2-cocycles on a classical root system taking only two different values. This observation…
An algorithm for embedding finite dimensional Lie algebras into Lie algebras of vector fields (and Lie superalgebras into Lie superalgebras of vector fields) is offered in a way applicable over ground fields of any characteristic. The…
It is shown that any finite dimensional simple Lie superalgebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 is generated by 2 elements.
We determine the decomposition numbers of the partition algebra when the characteristic of the ground field is zero or larger than the degree of the partition algebra. This will allow us to determine for which exact values of the parameter…
An adjoint Chevalley group of rank at least 2 over a rational algebra (or a similar ring), its elementary subgroup, and the corresponding Lie ring have the same automorphism group. These automorphisms are explicitly described.
For any grading by an abelian group $G$ on the exceptional simple Lie algebra $\mathcal{L}$ of type $E_6$ or $E_7$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, we compute the graded Brauer invariants of simple…
We say that a Hopf algebra has the Chevalley property if the tensor product of any two simple modules over this Hopf algebra is semisimple. In this paper we classify finite dimensional triangular Hopf algebras with the Chevalley property,…
In this paper we consider gradings by a finite abelian group $G$ on the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}_n(F)$ over an algebraically closed field $F$ of characteristic different from 2 and not dividing $n$.
In the thesis we present a new method for parametrizing algebraic varieties over the field of characteristic zero. The problem of parametrizing is reduced to a problem of finding an isomorphism of algebras. We introduce the Lie algebra of a…
Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field of characteristic zero and let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a non-zero finite-dimensional split semisimple Lie algebra with root system $\Delta$. Let $\Gamma$ be a finite set of integral weights of $\mathfrak{g}$ containing…
This paper is a further contribution to the extensive study by a number of authors of the subalgebra lattice of a Lie algebra. It is shown that, in certain circumstances, including for all solvable algebras, for all Lie algebras over…
We investigate the graded Lie algebras of Cartan type $W$, $S$ and $H$ in characteristic 2 and determine their simple constituents and some exceptional isomorphisms between them. We also consider the graded Lie algebras of Cartan type $K$…
Given an element $P(X_1,...,X_d)$ of the finitely generated free Lie algebra, for any Lie algebra $g$ we can consider the induced polynomial map $P: g^d\to g$. Assuming that $K$ is an arbitrary field of characteristic $\ne 2$, we prove that…
Recently, Grozman and Leites returned to the original Cartan's description of Lie algebras to interpret the Melikyan algebras (for p<7) and several other little-known simple Lie algebras over algebraically closed fields for p=3 as…
An algebraic group is called semi-reductive if it is a semi-direct product of a reductive subgroup and the unipotent radical. Such a semi-reductive algebraic group naturally arises and also plays a key role in the study of modular…
The Heisenberg Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field F of characteristic p > 0 always admit a family of restricted structures. We use the ordinary 1- and 2-cohomology spaces with adjoint coefficients to compute the restricted 1-…
