In this paper, we find a family $SL^{n,m}$, in any arbitrary dimensions, of cohomologically rigid solvable Lie superalgebras with nilradical the model filiform Lie superalgebra $L^{n,m}$. Moreover, we exhibit a family of cohomologically…
We consider the variety of pre-Lie algebra structures on a given n-dimensional vector space. The group GL_n(K) acts on it, and we study the closure of the orbits with respect to the Zariski topology. This leads to the definition of pre-Lie…
All results concern characteristic 2. Two procedures that to every simple Lie algebra assign simple Lie superalgebras, most of the latter new, are offered. We prove that every simple finite-dimensional Lie superalgebra is obtained as the…
We describe degenerations of four-dimensional binary Lie algebras, and five- and six-dimensional nilpotent Malcev algebras over \mathbb{C}. In particular, we describe all irreducible components of these varieties.
A Lie (super)algebra with a non-degenerate invariant symmetric bilinear form will be called a NIS-Lie (super)algebra. The double extension of a NIS-Lie (super)algebra is the result of simultaneously adding to it a central element and an…
The complex Lie superalgebras $\mathfrak{g}$ of type $D(2,1;a)$ - also denoted by $\mathfrak{osp}(4,2;a) $ - are usually considered for "non-singular" values of the parameter $a$, for which they are simple. In this paper we introduce five…
A Lie (super)algebra with a non-degenerate invariant symmetric bilinear form $B$ is called a nis-(super)algebra. The double extension $\mathfrak{g}$ of a nis-(super)algebra $\mathfrak{a}$ is the result of simultaneous adding to…
In this paper we study the varieties of nilpotent Lie superalgebras of dimension $\leq 5$. We provide the algebraic classification of these superalgebras and obtain the irreducible components in every variety. As a by product we construct…
We study the varieties of Lie algebra laws and their subvarieties of nilpotent Lie algebra laws. We classify all degenerations of (almost all) five-step and six-step nilpotent seven-dimensional complex Lie algebras. One of the main tools is…
For each complex 8-dimensional filiform Lie algebra we find another non isomorphic Lie algebra that degenerates to it. Since this is already known for nilpotent Lie algebras of rank $\ge 1$, only the caracteristically nilpotent ones should…
In this work, we recall that every filiform Lie superalgebra is a deformation of the superalgebra $L_{n,m}$. We study the even cocycles which give this nilpotent deformations. A family of independent bilinear maps will help us to describe…
We present structural properties of Lie algebras admitting symmetric, invariant and nondegenerate bilinear forms. We show that these properties are not satisfied by nilradicals of parabolic subalgebras of real split forms of complex simple…
Let $L$ be a Lie superalgebra over a field of characteristic different from $2,3$ and write $\mathrm{ID}^{*}(L)$ for the Lie superalgebra consisting of superderivations mapping $L$ to $L^{2}$ and the central elements to zero. In this paper…
We determine the complete degeneration picture inside the variety of nilpotent associative algebras of dimension 3 over an algebraically closed field of characteristic not equal to 2. Comparing with the discussion in [Ivanova N.M. and…
For most complex 9-dimensional filiform Lie algebra we find another non isomorphic Lie algebra that degenerates to it. Since this is already known for nilpotent Lie algebras of rank $\geq 1$, only the characteristically nilpotent ones…
We describe all degenerations of three dimensional anticommutative algebras $\mathfrak{Acom}_3$ and of three dimensional Leibniz algebras $\mathfrak{Leib}_3$ over $\mathbb{C}.$ In particular, we describe all irreducible components and rigid…
This paper is devoted to the complete algebraic and geometric classification of complex $4$-dimensional nilpotent left-symmetric algebras. The corresponding geometric variety has dimension $15$ and decomposes into $3$ irreducible components…
Of four types of Kaplansky algebras, type-2 and type-4 algebras have previously unobserved $\mathbb{Z}/2$-gradings: nonlinear in roots. A method assigning a simple Lie superalgebra to every $\mathbb{Z}/2$-graded simple Lie algebra in…
We categorize all non-abelian nilpotent Lie superalgebras of dimension $(m|n)$, where $1\leq s(L)\leq 10$, and $s(L)$ is a non-negative integer defined by Nayak. Furthermore, we classify the structure of all Lie superalgebras of dimension…
