A subalgebra of a semisimple Lie algebra is wide if every simple module of the semisimple Lie algebra remains indecomposable when restricted to the subalgebra. A subalgebra is narrow if the restrictions of all non-trivial simple modules to…

We study $\mathbb{Z}_2$-graded identities of Lie superalgebras of the type $b(t), t\ge 2$, over a field of characteristic zero. Our main result is that the $n$-th codimension is strictly less than $(\dim b(t))^n$ asymptotically. As a…

Decomposition classes provide a way of partitioning the Lie algebras of an algebraic group into equivalence classes based on the Jordan decomposition. In this paper, we investigate the decomposition classes of the Lie algebras of connected…
