In this paper we study the lengths of certain chains of subalgebras of a Lie algebra L: namely, a chief series, a maximal chain of minimal length, a chain of maximal length in which each subalgebra is modular in L, and a chain of maximal…

Let M be a maximal subalgebra of the Lie algebra L. A subalgebra C of L is said to be a completion for M if C is not contained in M but every proper subalgebra of C that is an ideal of L is contained in M. The set I(M) of all completions of…

Relationships between certain properties of maximal subalgebras of a Lie algebra $L$ and the structure of $L$ itself have been studied by a number of authors. Amongst the maximal subalgebras, however, some exert a greater influence on…

For a Lie algebra $L$ and a subalgebra $M$ of $L$ we say that a subalgebra $U$ of $L$ is a {\em supplement} to $M$ in $L$ if $L = M + U$. We investigate those Lie algebras all of whose maximal subalgebras have abelian supplements, those…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, $A= K[x_1, \dots, x_n]$ the polynomial ring in $n$ variables, and let $W_n(K)$ be the Lie algebra of all $K$-derivations of $A.$ This Lie algebra also is the free $A$-module…

A maximal commutative subalgebra is a substructure in algebra with the greatest commutative property. By studying the lengths of maximal commutative subalgebras, one can more clearly characterize the structure of commutative subalgebras in…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and ${P_n=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]}$ the polynomial ring. Any $K$-derivation $D$ on $P_n$ is of the form ${ D=\sum_{i=1}^n f_i(x_1,\ldots,x_n)\frac{\partial}{\partial x_i} },$ where…

We call a subalgebra $U$ of a Lie algebra $L$ a $CAP$-subalgebra of $L$ if for any chief factor $H/K$ of $L$, we have $H \cap U = K \cap U$ or $H+U = K+U$. In this paper we investigate some properties of such subalgebras and obtain some…

Thin Lie algebras are infinite-dimensional graded Lie algebras $L=\bigoplus_{i=1}^{\infty}$, with $\dim(L_1)=2$ and satisfying a covering property: for each $i$, each nonzero $z\in L_i$ satisfies $[zL_1]=L_{i+1}$. It follows that each…

We categorize all non-abelian nilpotent Lie superalgebras of dimension $(m|n)$, where $1\leq s(L)\leq 10$, and $s(L)$ is a non-negative integer defined by Nayak. Furthermore, we classify the structure of all Lie superalgebras of dimension…

A subalgebra S of a Leibniz algebra L is called self-idealizing in L if it coincides with its idealizer IL(S). In this paper we study the structure of Leibniz algebras, whose subalgebras are either ideals or self-idealizing.

For every field $F$ which has a quadratic extension $E$ we show there are non-metabelian infinite-dimensional thin graded Lie algebras all of whose homogeneous components, except the second one, have dimension $2$. We construct such Lie…

Let $E\supseteq F$ be a field extension and $M$ a graded Lie algebra of maximal class over $E$. We investigate the $F$-subalgebras $L$ of $M$, generated by elements of degree $1$. We provide conditions for $L$ being either ideally…

Let W_n(K) be the Lie algebra of derivations of the polynomial algebra K[X]:=K[x_1,...,x_n] over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic zero. A subalgebra L of W_n(K) is called polynomial if it is a submodule of the K[X]-module…
