Subsets of a matrix algebra over a field that are invariant under conjugation and contain the linear span of each two of their commuting elements are described. They obviously include the subsets of diagonalizable and nilpotent matrices. In…
The problem of whether a metabolic idempotent of a central simple algebra with involution is contained in an invariant quaternion subalgebra is investigated. As an application, the similar problem is studied for skew-symmetric elements…
We show a number of properties of the commutator algebra of a nilpotent matrix over a field. In particular we determine the simple modules of the commutator algebra. Then the results are applied to prove that certain Artinian complete…
The leitmotiv of this paper is linking algebraic properties of an evolution algebra with combinatorial properties of the (possibly several) graphs that one can associate to the algebra. We link nondegeneracy, zero annihilator, absorption…
The set of linear, differential operators preserving the vector space of couples of polynomials of degrees n and n-2 in one real variable leads to an abstract associative graded algebra A(2). The irreducible, finite dimensional…
We study totally decomposable symplectic and unitary involutions on central simple algebras of index 2 and on split central simple algebras respectively. We show that for every field extension, these involutions are either anisotropic or…
In the study of pre-Lie algebras, the concept of pre-morphism arises naturally as a generalization of the standard notion of morphism. Pre-morphisms can be defined for arbitrary (not-necessarily associative) algebras over any commutative…
In this paper we give another characterization of the strictly nilpotent elements in the Weyl algebra, which (apart from the polynomials) turn out to be all bispectral operators with polynomial coefficients. This also allows to reformulate…
A relationship between nilpotency and primeness in a module is investigated. Reduced modules are expressed as sums of prime modules. It is shown that presence of nilpotent module elements inhibits a module from possessing good structural…
The present article is part of a research program the aim of which is to find all indecomposable solvable extensions of a given class of nilpotent Lie algebras. Specifically in this article we consider a nilpotent Lie algebra n that is…
A real $n$-by-$n$ idempotent matrix $A$ with all entries having the same absolute value is called {\it absolutely flat}. We consider the possible ranks of such matrices and herein characterize the triples: size, constant, and rank for which…
We classify the nilpotent Lie algebras of real dimension eight and minimal center that admit a complex structure. Furthermore, for every such nilpotent Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, we describe the space of complex structures on…
Let $F$ be a field, char$(F)\neq 2$. Then every finite-dimensional $F$-algebra has either an idempotent or an absolute nilpotent if and only if over $F$ every polynomial of odd degree has a root in $F$. This is also necessary and sufficient…
In this paper we study the Lie algebras of derivations of two-step nilpotent algebras. We obtain a class of Lie algebras with trivial center and abelian ideal of inner derivations. Among these, the relations between the complex and the real…
In this paper we classify a family of three-dimensional real evolution algebras. We also consider an evolution operator for an evolution algebra and find fixed points of this operator for two and three-dimensional cases. Then we construct…
Let $\n_{d,t}$ be the free nilpotent Lie algebra of type $d$ and nilindex $t$. Starting out with the derivation algebra and the automorphism group of $\n_{d,t}$, we get a natural description of derivations and automorphisms of any generic…
In the paper, we consider the class of so-called endo-commutative algebras. From the identity imposed to specify this class, one can easily see that the product in this class preserves the square of elements. We give a complete…
The work is devoted to the variety of $2$-dimensional algebras over an algebraically closed field. Firstly, we classify such algebras modulo isomorphism. Then we describe the degenerations and the closures of principal algebra series in 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.
In this paper we classify filiform associative algebras of degree $k$ over a field of characteristic zero. Moreover, we also classify naturally graded complex filiform and quasi-filiform nilpotent associative algebras which are described by…
