We construct finitely generated nil algebras with prescribed growth rate. In particular, any increasing submultiplicative function is realized as the growth function of a nil algebra up to a polynomial error term and an arbitrarily slow…

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…

We classify the (n-5)-filiform Lie algebras which have the additional property of a non-abelian derived subalgebra. We show that this property is strongly related with the structure of the Lie algebra of derivations; explicitely we show…

That announcement gives the structure of totally reducible linear Lie algebras which are the Lie algebra of the holonomy group of (at least) one torsion-free connection. The result uses the (already known) classi cation of the irreducible…

In this paper we concern with positive zero divisors in $C^{*}$ algebras. By means of zero divisors, we introduce a hereditary invariant for $C^{*}$ algebras. Using this invariant, we give an example of a $C^{*}$ algebra $A$ and a $C^{*}$…

We show how various constructions of $\mathbb{Z}$-graded Lie superalgebras are related to each other. These Lie superalgebras have a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ as the subalgebra at degree 0, an odd $\mathfrak{g}$-module V as the subspace at…

A family of solvable self-dual Lie algebras is presented. There exist a few methods for the construction of non-reductive self-dual Lie algebras: an orthogonal direct product, a double-extension of an Abelian algebra, and a Wigner…

We give a general definition of self-similar Lie algebras, and show that important examples of Lie algebras fall into that class. We give sufficient conditions for a self-similar Lie algebra to be nil, and prove in this manner that the…

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…

In this paper we give new methods to construct zero divisors in A_n =R^(2^n) the Cayley_Dickson algebras over the real numbers, for n larger than 4, and we also relate the set of zero divisors in A_{n+1} with the Stiefel Manifold V_{2^n…

Let g be the Lie algebra of a connected reductive group G over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p>0. Let $Z$ be the centre of the universal enveloping algebra U=U(g) of g. Its maximal spectrum is called the Zassenhaus…

New commutative subalgebras of the maximal Gel'fand-Kirillov dimension in the universal enveloping algebras of classical Lie algebras gl(n) and so(n) are constructed. In the case of sp(n) Gel'fand-Tsetlin algebra is extended to a maximally…

We investigate the vanishing of the group SK1(A(G)) for the Iwasawa algebra A(G) of a pro-p p-adic Lie group G (with p different from 2). We reduce this vanishing to a linear algebra problem for Lie algebras over arbitrary rings, which we…

We introduce the notion of $\lambda$-double Lie algebra, which coincides with usual double Lie algebra when $\lambda = 0$. We state that every $\lambda$-double Lie algebra for $\lambda\neq0$ provides the structure of modified double Poisson…

In this article, we prove that in content extentions minimal primes extend to minimal primes and discuss zero-divisors of a content algebra over a ring who has Property (A) or whose set of zero-divisors is a finite union of prime ideals. We…

For any field $\K$ and integer $n\geq 2$ we consider the Leavitt algebra $L_\K(n)$; for any integer $d\geq 1$ we form the matrix ring $S = M_d(L_\K(n))$. $S$ is an associative algebra, but we view $S$ as a Lie algebra using the bracket…

Let G be a connected and reductive group over the algebraically closed field K. J-P. Serre has introduced the notion of a G-completely reducible subgroup H of G. In this note, we give a notion of G-complete reducibility -- G-cr for short --…

We consider finite-dimensional complex Lie algebras admitting a periodic derivation, i.e., a nonsingular derivation which has finite multiplicative order. We show that such Lie algebras are at most two-step nilpotent and give several…
