The notion of defining relations is well-defined for any nilpotent Lie algebra. Therefore a conventional way to present a simple Lie algebra G is by splitting it into the direct sum of a commutative Cartan subalgebra and two maximal…

We define contragredient Lie algebras in symmetric categories, generalizing the construction of Lie algebras of the form $\mathfrak{g}(A)$ for a Cartan matrix $A$ from the category of vector spaces to an arbitrary symmetric tensor category.…

Let $X$ be one of the finite-dimensional simple graded Lie superalgebras of Cartan type $W, S, H, K, HO, KO, SHO$ or $SKO$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>3$. In this paper we prove that $X$ can be generated by one…

In the same way the folding of the Dynkin diagram of A_{2n} (resp. A_{2n-1}) produces the B_n (resp. C_n) Dynkin diagram, the symmetry algebra W of a Toda model based on B_n (resp. C_n) can be seen as resulting from the folding of a…

Let $\Bbbk$ be a field of characteristic zero and let $\mathbb{W}_n = \operatorname{Der}(\Bbbk[x_1,\cdots,x_n])$ be the $n^{\text{th}}$ general Cartan type Lie algebra. In this paper, we study Lie subalgebras $L$ of $\mathbb{W}_n$ of…

We study the Borcherds superalgebra obtained by adding an odd (fermionic) null root to the set of simple roots of a simple finite-dimensional Lie algebra. We compare it to the Kac-Moody algebra obtained by replacing the odd null root by an…

We completely describe presentations of Lie superalgebras with Cartan matrix if they are simple Z-graded of polynomial growth. Such matrices can be neither integer nor symmetrizable. There are non-Serre relations encountered. In certain…

Any graded restricted simple Lie algebra of Cartan type contains a subalgebra isomorphic to the Witt algebra over a field of prime characteristic. As some analogue of study on branching rules for restricted non-classical Lie algebras, it is…
