We classify real 6-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras for which the corresponding Lie group has a left-invariant complex structure, and estimate the dimensions of moduli spaces of such structures.

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.…

We show that a left-invariant metric g on a nilpotent Lie group N is a soliton metric if and only if a matrix U and vector v associated the manifold (N,g) satisfy the matrix equation Uv = [1], where [1] is a vector with every entry a one.…

The main aim of this paper is to classify the distinct multiplicative Lie algebra structures (up to isomorphism) on a given group. We also see that for a given group $G$, every homomorphism from the non-abelian exterior square $G \wedge G$…

We prove a general result about the stability of geometric flows of "closed" sections of vector bundles on compact manifolds. Our theorem allows to prove a stability result for the modified Laplacian coflow in G2-geometry introduced by…

We classify finite-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras with $2$-dimensional central commutator ideals admitting a Lie group of automorphisms isomorphic to $SO_2(\mathbb R)$. This enables one to enlarge the class of nilpotent Lie algebras of…

We study the G$_2$-instanton condition for a family of metric connections arisen from the characteristic connection, on $7$-dimensional $2$-step nilpotent Lie groups with left-invariant coclosed G$_2$-structures. According to the dimension…

We study the heterotic G$_2$-system on 7-dimensional 2-step nilmanifolds $M=\Gamma\backslash N$ endowed with principal torus bundles. We first prove that every invariant G$_2$-structure solving the system must be coclosed (under an…

A Lie algebra is called nonsoliton if it does not admit a soliton inner product. We demonstrate that the subset of nonsoliton Lie algebras in the moduli space of indecomposable n-dimensional N-graded nilpotent Lie algebras is discrete if…

We prove that the Ricci flow g(t) starting at any metric on the euclidean space that is invariant by a transitive nilpotent Lie group N, can be obtained by solving an ODE for a curve of nilpotent Lie brackets. By using that this ODE is the…

We investigate left-invariant Hitchin and hypo flows on $5$-, $6$- and $7$-dimensional Lie groups. They provide Riemannian cohomogeneity-one manifolds of one dimension higher with holonomy contained in $SU(3)$, $G_2$ and $Spin(7)$,…

We consider Ricci flow on two classes of nilpotent Lie groups that generalize the three-dimensional Heisenberg group: the higher-dimensional classical Heisenberg groups, and the groups of real unitriangular matrices. Each group is known to…

A new structure, based on joining copies of a group by means of a \emph{twist}, has recently been considered to describe the brackets of the two exceptional real Lie algebras of type $G_2$ in a highly symmetric way. In this work we show…

There are five six-dimensional nilpotent Lie groups G, which do not admit neither symplectic, nor complex structures and, therefore, can be neither almost pseudo-Kahler, nor almost Hermitian. In this work, these Lie groups are being…
