In this paper we consider Lie superalgebras decomposable as the sum of two proper subalgebras. Any of these algebras has the form of the vector space sum $L=A+B$ where $A$ and $B$ are proper simple subalgebras which need not be ideals of…
A finite W-algebra is an associative algebra constructed from a semisimple Lie algebra and its nilpotent element. In this survey we review recent developments in the representation theory of W-algebras. We emphasize various interactions…
Lie algebras formed via semi-direct sums of the Witt algebra $\text{Der}(\mathbb{C}[t,t^{-1}])$ and its modules have become increasingly prominent in both physics and mathematics in recent years. In this paper, we complete the study of…
Given an n-term L-infinity algebra L, we construct a Kan simplicial manifold which we think of as the 'Lie n-group' integrating L. This extends work of Getzler math.AT/0404003 . In the case of an ordinary Lie algebra, our construction gives…
E.B. Vinberg's theory of quasi-derivations of algebras is extended to a broader framework of near-derivations. This deepens connections between Poisson geometry and Lie theory. Although basic results apply to arbitrary algebras, our…
We consider a problem which may be viewed as an inverse one to the Schwinger realization of Lie algebra, and suggest a procedure of deforming the so-obtained algebra. We illustrate the method through a few simple examples extending…
We analyze under which conditions the missing label problem associated to a reduction chain $\frak{s}^{\prime}\subset \frak{s}$ of (simple) Lie algebras can be completely solved by means of an In\"on\"u-Wigner contraction $\frak{g}$…
By means of the Lie algebra expansion method, the centrally extended conformal algebra in two dimensions and the $\mathfrak{bms}_{3}$ algebra are obtained from the Virasoro algebra. We extend this result to construct new families of…
A pseudo-Euclidean Novikov superalgebra $A$ is a Novikov superalgebra endowed with a non-degenerate symmetric bilinear form $\langle,\rangle$ such that all left multiplication operators are $\langle,\rangle$-antisymmetric. In this case, the…
Every Lie algebra over a field $E$ gives rise to new Lie algebras over any subfield $F \subseteq E$ by restricting the scalar multiplication. This paper studies the structure of these underlying Lie algebra in relation to the structure of…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive linear algebraic group over a field $k$. Using ideas from geometric invariant theory, we study the notion of $G$-complete reducibility over $k$ for a Lie subalgebra $\mathfrak h$ of the Lie algebra…
In this work, we introduce a new class of algebras called skew-Brauer graph algebras, which generalize the well-known Brauer graph algebras. We establish that skew-Brauer graph algebras are symmetric and can be defined using a Brauer graph…
In this paper we study the variety of one dimensional representations of a finite $W$-algebra attached to a classical Lie algebra, giving a precise description of the dimensions of the irreducible components. We apply this to prove a…
A new general Lie-algebraic approach is proposed to solving evolution tasks in some nonlinear problems of quantum physics with polynomially deformed Lie algebras $su_{pd}(2)$ as their dynamic symmetry algebras. The method makes use of an…
For the simple Lie algebra $g = sl(n,C)$ we we find a set of generators and relations for the classical family algebra $(End(g)\otimes S(g))^G$ as an algebra over the ring $I(g)$. From these we can then determine a $I(g)$-linear basis of…
We study a certain generalization of Lie algebras where the Jacobian of three elements does not vanish but is equal to an expression depending on a skew-symmetric bilinear form.
We consider some special type extensions of an arbitrary Lie algebra ${\cal G}$, arising in the theory of Lie-Poisson structures over $({\cal G}^*)^n$, where ${\cal G}^*$ is the dual of ${\cal G}$. We show that some classes of these…
Let $V$ be a smooth scheme over a field $k$, and let $\{I_n, n\geq 0\}$ be a filtration of sheaves of ideals in $\calo_V$, such that $I_0=\calo_V$, and $I_s\cdot I_t\subset I_{s+t}$. In such case $\bigoplus I_n$ is called a Rees algebra. A…
In this work, we consider Lie algebras L containing a subalgebra isomorphic to sl3 and such that L decomposes as a module for that sl3 subalgebra into copies of the adjoint module, the natural 3-dimensional module and its dual, and the…
We review some basic features of the Lie-algebraic classification of W-algebras and related integrable hierarchies in 1+1 dimensions, pointing out the role of affine Lie algebras. We emphasize that the supersymmetric extensions of the above…
