A group grading on a semisimple Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero is special if its identity component is zero; it is pure if at least one of its components, other than the identity component, contains a…
We give a full classification of Lie algebras of specific type in complexified Clifford algebras. These sixteen Lie algebras are direct sums of subspaces of quaternion types. We obtain isomorphisms between these Lie algebras and classical…
Orthogonal decomposition of the special linear Lie algebra over the complex numbers was studied in the early 1980s and attracted further attentions in the past decade due to its application in quantum information theory. In this paper, we…

The classification of complex of real finite dimensional Lie algebras which are not semi simple is still in its early stages. For example the nilpotent Lie algebras are classified only up to the dimension 7. Moreover, to recognize a given…
We give a construction of the compact real form of the Lie algebra of type $E_6$, using the finite irreducible subgroup of shape $3^{3+3}:\mathrm{SL}_3(3)$, which is isomorphic to a maximal subgroup of the orthogonal group $\Omega_7(3)$. In…
The paper concerns two versions of the notion of real forms of Lie superalgebras. One is the standard approach, where a real form of a complex Lie superalgebra is a real Lie superalgebra such that its complexification is the original…

Satake diagrams of the real forms $ \mathfrak{e}_{6,-26}$, $ \mathfrak{e}_{6,-14}$ and $ \mathfrak{e}_{6,2}$ are carefully developed. The first real form is constructed with an Albert algebra and the other ones by using the two paraoctonion…
