In this paper, we consider a 3-Lie algebra with a derivation (called a 3-LieDer pair). We define cohomology for a 3-LieDer pair with coefficients in a representation. We use this cohomology to study deformations and abelian extensions of…

On Lie algebras, we study commutative 2-cocycles, i.e., symmetric bilinear forms satisfying the usual cocycle equation. We note their relationship with antiderivations and compute them for some classes of Lie algebras, including…

Let $k$ be an arbitrary field and $d$ a positive integer. For each degenerate symmetric or antisymmetric bilinear form $M$ on $k^{d}$ we determine the structure of the Lie algebra of matrices that preserve $M$, and of the Lie algebra of…

The $n$-Lie bialgebras are studied. In Section 2, the $n$-Lie coalgebra with rank $r$ is defined, and the structure of it is discussed. In Section 3, the $n$-Lie bialgebra is introduced. A triple $(L, \mu, \Delta)$ is an $n$-Lie bialgebra…

We describe an essential improvement of our recent algorithm for computing cohomology of Lie (super)algebra based on partition of the whole cochain complex into minimal subcomplexes. We replace the arithmetic of rational numbers or integers…

A finite-dimensional Lie algebra $L$ over a field $F$ is called an $A$-algebra if all of its nilpotent subalgebras are abelian. This is analogous to the concept of an $A$-group: a finite group with the property that all of its Sylow…

We use computer algebra to determine the Lie invariants of degree <= 12 in the free Lie algebra on two generators corresponding to the natural representation of the simple 3-dimensional Lie algebra sl(2,C). We then consider the free Lie…

We find relations between real root decompositions of triples of Lie algebras corresponding to standard compact Clifford-Klein forms, under the assumption that these triples are not Lie algebra decompositions in the sense of Onishchik. This…

We discuss how transformations in a three dimensional euclidean space can be described in terms of the Clifford algebra $\mathcal{C}\ell_{3,3}$ of the quadratic space $\mathbb{R}^{3,3}$. We show that this algebra describes in a unified way…

Following our approach to metric Lie algebras developed in math.DG/0312243 we propose a way of understanding pseudo-Riemannian symmetric spaces which are not semi-simple. We introduce cohomology sets (called quadratic cohomology) associated…

By utilization of three elementary vector operators as position, angular momentum and their cross product, a simple realization of gl(2,c) Lie algebra on sphere are constructed. The coherent states based on this algebra can then be…

Let F be a field of characteristic different from 2, and let $F^{n}$ denote the vector space of n-tuples of elements in F. Let ${e_{1}, ... , e_{n}}$ denote the canonical basis of $F^{n}$. Let r and s be nonnegative integers such that r + s…

A notion of n-Lie algebra introduced by V.T. Filippov can be viewed as a generalization of a concept of binary Lie algebra to the algebras with n-ary multiplication law. A notion of Lie algebra can be extended to Z_2-graded structures…

Let $L$ be a compact oriented $3$-manifold and $\rho\colon\pi_1(L)\to \mathrm{GL}(n,\mathbb{C})$ a representation. Evaluating the Cheeger-Chern-Simons class $\widehat{c}_{\rho,k}\in H^{2k-1}(L;\mathbb{C}/\mathbb{Z})$ of $\rho$ at $\nu\in…

We study the cohomology with trivial coefficients of Lie algebras L_k of the polynomial vector fields on the line with zero $k$-jet, (k>=1), and the cohomology of the similar subalgebras {L}_k of the polynomial loops algebra…

The cohomology groups of Lie superalgebras and, more generally, of color Lie algebras, are introduced and investigated. The main emphasis is on the case where the module of coefficients is non-trivial. Two general propositions are proved,…

Let $\lambda$ be a primitive root of unity of order $\ell$. We introduce a family of finite-dimensional algebras $\{\mathcal{D}_{\lambda,N}(\mathfrak{sl}_2)\}_{N\in\mathbb{N}_0}$ over the complex numbers, such that…

In this paper we will be classifying some regular upper-triangular subalgebras of $\mathfrak{sl}(n, \mathbb C)$ up to conjugacy by matrices in $SL(n, \mathbb C)$. We do so for dimension 2, codimension 1, and codimension 2 subalgebras. We…

We construct all solvable Lie algebras with a specific n-dimensional nilradical n_{n,3} which contains the previously studied filiform nilpotent algebra n_{n-2,1} as a subalgebra but not as an ideal. Rather surprisingly it turns out that…
