A weak version of Birkhoff's generalization of the Perron-Frobenius theorem states that every endomorphism of a finite-dimensional real vector that leaves invariant a non-degenerate closed convex cone has an eigenvector in that cone. Here,…

It was shown recently that Birkhoff's theorem for doubly stochastic matrices can be extended to unitary matrices with equal line sums whenever the dimension of the matrices is prime. We prove a generalization of the Birkhoff theorem for…

In this note we present a more detailed and explicit exposition of the definition of a conformal representation of a Leibniz algebra. Recall (arXiv:math/0611501v3) that Leibniz algebras are exactly Lie dialgebras. The idea is based on the…

The Ado-Iwasawa Theorem asserts that a finite-dimensional Lie algebra $L$ over a field $F$ has a finite-dimensional faithful module $V$. There are several extensions asserting the existence of such a module with various additional…

We show that a complex structure on a nilpotent almost abelian real Lie algebra is unique if it exists. As a consequence, we get full control over the cohomology and deformations of almost abelian complex nilmanifolds.

The purpose of the present paper is to show that: Eilenberg-type correspondences = Birkhoff's theorem for (finite) algebras + duality. We consider algebras for a monad T on a category D and we study (pseudo)varieties of T-algebras.…

A methodical analysis of the research related to the article, ``Sur les groupes continus'', of Henri Poincar\'{e} reveals many historical misconceptions and inaccuracies regarding his contribution to Lie theory. A thorough reading of this…

The Recognition Theorem for graded Lie algebras is an essential ingredient in the classification of finite-dimensional simple Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 3. The main goal of this monograph is to…

Let g be a finite dimensional simple Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We show that if the Gelfand-Kirillov conjecture holds for g, then g has type A_n, C_n or G_2.

Let $\mathfrak g$ be a finite dimensional Lie algebra over a field $\mathbf k$, $U\mathfrak g$ be its enveloping algebra and $S\mathfrak g$ be the symmetric algebra on $\mathfrak g$. Extending the work of Braverman and Gaitsgory on the…

Birkhoff's variety theorem from universal algebra characterises equational subcategories of varieties. We give an analogue of Birkhoff's theorem in the setting of enrichment in categories. For a suitable notion of an equational subcategory…

In recent years, the notion of characteristic polynomial of representations of Lie algebras has been widely studied. This paper provides more properties of these characteristic polynomials. For simple Lie algebras, we characterize the…
