We introduce obstructions to the existence of a calibrated G_2-structure on a Lie algebra g of dimension seven, not necessarily nilpotent. In particular, we prove that if there is a Lie algebra epimorphism from g to a six-dimensional Lie…

We classify the non-degenerate two-step nilpotent Lie algebras of dimension 8 over the field of real numbers, using known results over complex numbers. We write explicit structure constants for these real Lie algebras.

This paper is devoted to the complete algebraic and geometric classification of complex $4$-dimensional nilpotent left-symmetric algebras. The corresponding geometric variety has dimension $15$ and decomposes into $3$ irreducible components…

We present a construction of 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras using labeled directed simple graphs, which allows us to give a criterion to detect certain ideals and subalgebras by finding special subgraphs. We prove that if a label occurs only…

Let $(\pi,V)$ be a smooth representation of a compact Lie group $G$ on a quasi-complete locally convex complex topological vector space. We show that the Lie algebra cohomology space $\mathrm{H} ^\bullet(\mathfrak{u}, V)$ and the Lie…

Given a simple undirected graph, one can construct from it a $c$-step nilpotent Lie algebra for every $c \geq 2$ and over any field $K$, in particular also over the real and complex numbers. These Lie algebras form an important class of…

Let {\Lnk} be the class of all $n$-dimensional real solvable Lie algebras having $k$-dimensional derived ideals. In 2020 the authors et al. gave a classification of all non 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras of {\Li}. We propose in this paper to…

We consider left-invariant (purely) coclosed G$_2$-structures on 7-dimensional 2-step nilpotent Lie groups. According to the dimension of the commutator subgroup, we obtain various criteria characterizing the Riemannian metrics induced by…

This paper completes the classification of seven-dimensional nilpotent Lie groups endowed with a left-invariant purely coclosed $\text{G}_2$-structure, initiated by the first-named author and collaborators. In this previous work, the…

By the Golod--Shafarevich Theorem, an associative algebra R given by n generators and d<n^2/3 homogeneous quadratic relations is not 5-step nilpotent. We prove that this estimate is optimal. Namely, we show that for every positive integer…

Given a finite dimensional Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, let $\mathfrak{z}(\mathfrak{g})$ denote the center of $\mathfrak{g}$ and let $\mu(\mathfrak{g})$ be the minimal possible dimension for a faithful representation of $\mathfrak{g}$. In…

Let $G$ be connected reductive algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$ and suppose that $p$ is a good prime for the root system of $G$, the derived subgroup of $G$ is simply connected and the Lie…

The metric approach to studying 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras by making use of non-degenerate scalar products is realised. We show that any 2-step nilpotent Lie algebra is isomorphic to its standard pseudo-metric form, that is a 2-step…

We study representations of the double affine Lie algebra associated to a simple Lie algebra. We construct a family of indecomposable integrable representations and identify their irreducible quotients. We also give a condition for the…

Left invariant affine structures in a Lie group $G$ are in one-to-one correspondence with left-symmetric algebras over its Lie algebra $\mathfrak g=T_eG$ (``over'' means that the commutator $[x,y]=xy-yx$ coincides with the Lie bracket;…

Given a homotopy Lie algebra (i.e. an $L_\infty$-algebra) $\mathfrak{g}$, we show concretely how the Lada-Markl $\mathfrak{g}$-modules (i.e. representations) assemble into a symmetric monoidal dg-category. Considering the homotopy…

Given a nilpotent Lie algebra $\mathfrak n$ we construct a spectral sequence which is derived from a filtration of its Chevalley-Eilenberg differential complex and converges to the Lie algebra cohomology of $\mathfrak n$. The limit of this…

We show that nilpotent matrices that yield the Schrodinger equation from its first order form encode the fingerprints of grand unified theories. We perform a rigorous search for all such nilpotent matrices and find that the resulting…
