A real Lie algebra with a compatible Hilbert space structure (in the sense that the scalar product is invariant) is called a Hilbert-Lie algebra. Such Lie algebras are natural infinite-dimensional analogues of the compact Lie algebras; in…
Let $so_3(K)$ be the Lie algebra of $3\times 3$ skew-symmetric matrices over a field $K$ of characteristic 0. The ideal $I(M_3(K),so_3(K))$ of the weak polynomial identities of the pair $(M_3(K),so_3(K))$ consists of the elements…
The powerful group theoretical formalism of potential algebras is extended to non-Hermitian Hamiltonians with real eigenvalues by complexifying so(2,1), thereby getting the complex algebra sl(2,\C) or $A_1$. This leads to new types of both…

Using techniques developed in a recent article by the authors, it is proved that the 2-cohomology of the Lie superalgebra sl(m|1); m > 1, with coefficients in its enveloping algebra is trivial. The obstacles in solving the analogous problem…
We develop an algebraic approach to the branching of representations of the general linear Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{gl}_{p|q}({\mathbb C})$, by constructing certain super commutative algebras whose structure encodes the branching rules.…
In a paper by Su and Zhao, the Lie algebra $A[D]=A\otimes F[D]$ of Weyl type was defined and studied, where $A$ is a commutative associative algebra with an identity element over a field $F$ of arbitrary characteristic, and $F[D]$ is the…
Let $L$ be a finite dimensional Lie algebra over a field of characteristic $0$. Then by the original Levi theorem, $L = B \oplus R$ where $R$ is the solvable radical and $B$ is some maximal semisimple subalgebra. We prove that if $L$ is an…
We introduce and investigate the solvable graph $\Gamma_\mathfrak{S}(L)$ of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra $L$ over a field $F$. The vertices are the elements outside the solvabilizer $\sol(L)$, and two vertices are adjacent whenever they…
We study central extensions of the Lie superalgebra $sl_{m|n}(A)$, where $A$ is a $Z/2Z$-graded superalgebra over a commutative ring $K$. The Steinberg Lie superalgebra $st_{m|n}(A)$ plays a crucial role. We show that $st_{m|n}(A)$ is a…
