In the study of NIL-affine actions on nilpotent Lie groups we introduced so called LR-structures on Lie algebras. The aim of this paper is to consider the existence question of LR-structures, and to start a structure theory of LR-algebras.…

In this paper, we study the nilradicals of parabolic subalgebras of semisimple Lie algebras and the natural one-dimensional solvable extensions of them. We investigate the structures, curvatures and Einstein conditions of the associated…

We present algebraic and geometric classifications of the $4$-dimensional complex nilpotent right alternative algebras. Specifically, we find that, up to isomorphism, there are only $9$ non-isomorphic nontrivial nilpotent right alternative…

Let $G$ be $2$-generated group. The generating graph of $\Gamma(G)$ is the graph whose vertices are the elements of $G$ and where two vertices $g$ and $h$ are adjacent if $G=\langle g,h\rangle$. This graph encodes the combinatorial…

We classify the $5$-dimensional homogeneous geometries in the sense of Thurston. The present paper (part 2 of 3) classifies those in which the linear isotropy representation is either irreducible or trivial. The $5$-dimensional geometries…

Let G be a connected reductive linear algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p. Assume that p is good for G. In this note we classify all the spherical nilpotent G-orbits in the Lie algebra of G. The…

We study the crystal of quantum nilpotent subalgebra of $U_q(D_n)$ associated to a maximal Levi subalgebra of type $A_{n-1}$. We show that it has an affine crystal structure of type $D_n^{(1)}$ isomorphic to a limit of perfect…

Graded Hecke algebras can be constructed geometrically, with constructible sheaves and equivariant cohomology. The input consists of a complex reductive group G (possibly disconnected) and a cuspidal local system on a nilpotent orbit for a…

The discrete cocompact subgroups of the five-dimensional connected, simply connected nilpotent Lie groups are determined up to isomorphism. Moreover, we prove if $G=N\times A$ is a connected, simply connected, nilpotent Lie group with an…

We continue the study of the distribution of closed geodesics on nilmanifolds constructed from a simply connected 2-step nilpotent Lie group with a left invariant metric and a lattice. We consider a Lie group with an associated 2-step…

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.

We classify nilpotent associative algebras of dimensions up to 4 over any field. This is done by constructing the nilpotent associative algebras as central extensions of algebras of smaller dimension, analogous to methods known for…

Let $F$ be a field, char$(F)\neq 2$. Then every finite-dimensional $F$-algebra has either an idempotent or an absolute nilpotent if and only if over $F$ every polynomial of odd degree has a root in $F$. This is also necessary and sufficient…

The paper is devoted to graded algebras having a single homogeneous relation. Using Gerasimov's theorem, a criterion to be N-Koszul is given, providing new examples. An alternative proof of Gerasimov's theorem for N=2 is given. Some related…

We study the existence of various types of gradings on Lie algebras, such as Carnot gradings or gradings in positive integers, and prove that the existence of such gradings is invariant under extensions of scalars. As an application, we…

Let $\mathfrak{R}$ be a weakly noetherian variety of unitary associative algebras (over a field $K$ of characteristic 0), i.e., every finitely generated algebra from $\mathfrak{R}$ satisfies the ascending chain condition for two-sided…

Let g be a finite dimensional semisimple Lie algebra over C and e be a nilpotent element. Elashvili and Kac have recently classified all good Z-gradings for e. We instead consider good R-gradings, which are naturally parameterized by an…

We study post-Lie algebra structures on $(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{n})$ for nilpotent Lie algebras. First we show that if $\mathfrak{g}$ is nilpotent such that $H^0(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{n})=0$, then also $\mathfrak{n}$ must be nilpotent, of…
