We characterize locally semisimple subalgebras $\l$ of $\sl_\infty$, $\so_\infty$, and $\sp_\infty$ which are Levi components of parabolic subalgebras. Given $\l$, we characterize the parabolic subalgebras $\p$ such that $\l$ is a Levi…

In this paper we try to complete the stability analysis for an abstract system of coupled hyperbolic and parabolic equations $$ \left\{ \begin{array}{lll} \ds u_{tt} + Au - A^\alpha w = 0, \\ w_t + A^\alpha u_t + A^\beta w = 0,\\ u(0) =…

Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. It is well known that any quasi-reductive Lie algebra is stable. However, there are stable Lie algebras which are not quasi-reductive. This raises the question, if for some…

We consider a proper parabolic subalgebra p of a simple Lie algebra g and the Inonu-Wigner contraction of p with respect to its decomposition into its standard Levi factor and its nilpotent radical : this is the Lie algebra which is…

Symmetric $k$-varieties are a natural generalization of symmetric spaces to general fields $k$. We study the action of minimal parabolic $k$-subgroups on symmetric $k$-varieties and define a map that embeds these orbits within the orbits…

We announce some new results regarding the classification problem for separable von Neumann algebras. Our results are obtained by applying the notion of Borel reducibility and Hjorth's theory of turbulence to the isomorphism relation for…

We determine all values of the parameters for which the cell modules form a standard system, for a class of cellular diagram algebras including partition, Brauer, walled Brauer, Temperley-Lieb and Jones algebras. For this, we develop and…

If $A$ is a finite-dimensional algebra graded by a group $G$, and $\sigma \in G$, we define a variant of paratrophic matrix associated with $A$ and $\sigma$, and we use it to characterize the $\sigma$-graded Frobenius property for $A$. We…
