We study nilpotent Lie algebras endowed with a complex structure and a quadratic structure which is pseudo-Hermitian for the given complex structure. We propose several methods to construct such Lie algebras and describe a method of double…

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…

The paper is devoted to give a full classification of all finite dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras $ L $ of class $4$ such that $ \dim L^2=3. $ Moreover, we classify the capable ones.

We propose the study and description of the structure of complex Lie algebras with nilradical a nilpotent Lie algebra of type 2 by using sl2(C)-representation theory. Our results will be applied to review the classification given in [1] (J.…

We show obstructions to the existence of a coclosed $G_2$-structure on a Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ of dimension seven with non-trivial center. In particular, we prove that if there exist a Lie algebra epimorphism from $\mathfrak g$ to a…

It follows from the Golod--Shafarevich theorem that if R is an associative algebra given by n generators and $d<\frac{n^2}{4}\cos^{-2}(\frac{\pi}{k+1})$ quadratic relations, then R is not k-step nilpotent. We show that the above estimate is…

We consider a method popular in the literature of associating a two-step nilpotent Lie algebra with a finite simple graph. We prove that the two-step nilpotent Lie algebras associated with two graphs are Lie isomorphic if and only if the…
