Let $A$ be an elementary abelian group of order $p^{k}$ with $k\geq 3$ acting on a finite $p'$-group $G$. The following results are proved. If $\gamma_{k-2}(C_{G}(a))$ is nilpotent of class at most $c$ for any $a\in A^{#}$, then…
We construct large families of characteristically nilpotent Lie algebras by considering deformations of the Lie algebra g_{m,m-1}^{4} of type Q_{n},and which arises as a central extension fo the filiform Lie algebra L_{n}. By studying the…
For the simple Lie algebra $g = sl(n,C)$ we we find a set of generators and relations for the classical family algebra $(End(g)\otimes S(g))^G$ as an algebra over the ring $I(g)$. From these we can then determine a $I(g)$-linear basis of…

Let G be a reductive connected linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic and let g be its Lie algebra. First we extend a well-known result about the Picard group of a semisimple group to reductive…
We organize the nilpotent orbits in the exceptional complex Lie algebras into series using the triality model and show that within each series the dimension of the orbit is a linear function of the natural parameter a=1,2,4,8, respectively…
Let $\be$ be a Borel subalgebra of a complex simple Lie algebra $\g$. An ideal of $\be$ is called ad-nilpotent, if it is contained in $[\be,\be]$. We give several descriptions of the normalizer of an ad-nilpotent ideal: using the weight of…
By using a Borel density theorem for algebraic quotients, we prove a theorem concerning isometric actions of a Lie group $G$ on a smooth or analytic manifold $M$ with a rigid $\mathrm{A}$-structure $\sigma$. It generalizes Gromov's…
This note aims to give a short proof of the recent result due to Etg\"u-Lekili (2017) and Lekili-Ueda (2021): the zigzag algebra of any finite tree over a field of characteristic 0 is intrinsically formal if and only if the tree is of type…
In this paper, we first study derivations in non nilpotent Lie triple algebras. We determine the structure of derivation algebra according to whether the algebra admits an idempotent or a pseudo-idempotent. We study the multiplicative…
Let $\mathfrak g$ be a simple Lie algebra over $\mathbb C$ and let $e \in \mathfrak g$ be nilpotent. We consider the finite $W$-algebra $U(\mathfrak g,e)$ associated to $e$ and the problem of determining the variety $\mathcal E(\mathfrak…
Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group and $\ggg=\Lie(G)$ over $k=\bar\bbf_q$ where $q$ is a power of the prime characteristic of $k$, and $F$ a Frobenius morphism on $G$ which can be defined naturally on $\ggg$. In this paper, we investigate…
Let $f$ and $g$ be two noncommutative polynomials in disjoint sets of variables. An algebra $A$ is verbally prime if whenever $f\cdot g$ is an identity for $A$ then either $f$ or $g$ is also an identity. As an analogue of this property…
Suppose that a locally finite group $G$ has a $2$-element $g$ with Chernikov centralizer. It is proved that if the involution in $\langle g\rangle$ has nilpotent centralizer, then $G$ has a soluble subgroup of finite index.
This paper is concerned with generalising the results for Lie $CT$-algebras to Leibniz algebras. In some cases our results give a generalisation even for the case of a Lie algebra. Results on $A$-algebras are used to show every Leibniz…
Let $(M,g)$ be a compact Riemannian manifold and $P_g$ an elliptic, formally self-adjoint, conformally covariant operator of order $m$ acting on smooth sections of a bundle over $M$. We prove that if $P_g$ has no rigid eigenspaces (see…
Let $p$ be a an odd prime and let $G$ be a finite $p$-group with cyclic commutator subgroup $G'$. We prove that the exponent and the abelianization of the centralizer of $G'$ in $G$ are determined by the group algebra of $G$ over any field…
The structure of a solvable Lie groups admitting an Einstein left-invariant metric is, in a sense, completely determined by the nilradical of its Lie algebra. We give an easy-to-check necessary and sufficient condition for a nilpotent…
In this paper the authors introduce an analog of the nilpotent cone, ${\mathcal N}$, for a classical Lie superalgebra, ${\mathfrak g}$, that generalizes the definition for the nilpotent cone for semisimple Lie algebras. For a classical…
An approach to representations of finite groups is presented without recourse to character theory. Considering the group algebra C[G] as an algebra of linear maps on C[G] (by left multiplication), we derive the primitive central idempotents…
