A classical theorem of Veldkamp describes the center of an enveloping algebra of a Lie algebra of a semi-simple algebraic group in characteristic $p.$ We generalize this result to a class of Lie algebras with a property that they arise as…

Let W_n(K) be the Lie algebra of derivations of the polynomial algebra K[X]:=K[x_1,...,x_n] over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic zero. A subalgebra L of W_n(K) is called polynomial if it is a submodule of the K[X]-module…

In this article we prove that there exists a Dixmier map for nilpotent super Lie algebras. In other words, if we denote by Prim(U(g)) the set of (graded) primitive ideals of the enveloping algebra U(g) of g and Ad_0 the adjoint group of…

Let $A$ be a residually finite dimensional algebra (not necessarily associative) over a field $k$. Suppose first that $k$ is algebraically closed. We show that if $A$ satisfies a homogeneous almost identity $Q$, then $A$ has an ideal of…

We study codimension growth of infinite dimensional Lie algebras over a field of characteristic zero. We prove that if a Lie algebra $L$ is an extension of a nilpotent algebra by a finite dimensional semisimple algebra then the PI-exponent…

Let $\mathfrak g$ be a semisimple Lie algebra, $\mathfrak h\subset\mathfrak g$ a reductive subalgebra such that $\mathfrak h^\perp$ is a complementary $\mathfrak h$-submodule of $\mathfrak g$. In 1983, Bogoyavlenski claimed that one obtains…

In this paper, we give a purely cohomological interpretation of the extension problem for (super) Lie algebras; that is the problem of extending a Lie algebra by another Lie algebra. We then give a similar interpretation of infinitesimal…

In the first part we present the Weyl algebra and our results concerning its finite-dimensional Lie subalgebras. The second part is devoted to a more exotic algebraic structure, the Lie algebra of order 3. We set the basis of a theory of…

Four-dimensional extended: Poincar\'e, AdS-Lorentz and Maxwell algebras, are obtained by expanding an extension of de Sitter or conformal algebra, SO(4,1) or SO(3,2). The procedure can be generalized to obtain a new family of extended…

The projective variety of Lie algebra structures on a 4-dimensional vector space has four irreducible components of dimension 11. We compute their prime ideals in the polynomial ring in 24 variables. By listing their degrees and Hilbert…

Let K be a field and A be a commutative associative K-algebra which is an integral domain. The Lie algebra Der A of all K-derivations of A is an A-module in a natural way and if R is the quotient field of A, then RDer A is a vector space…

Let $A=F[x,y]$ be the polynomial algebra on two variables $x,y$ over an algebraically closed field $F$ of characteristic zero. Under the Poisson bracket, $A$ is equipped with a natural Lie algebra structure. It is proven that the maximal…

We study codimension growth of infinite dimensional Lie superalgebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We prove that if a Lie superalgebra $L$ is a Grassmann envelope of a finite dimensional simple Lie algebra then…

The present paper is devoted to the complete classification of $4$-dimensional complex Poisson algebras, taking into account a classification, up to isomorphism, of the complex commutative associative algebras of dimension $4$, as well as…

We develop a structure theory for transposed Poisson algebras over fields of characteristic different from two. In particular, we prove that every finite-dimensional transposed Poisson algebra over an algebraically closed field decomposes…

Let $L$ be an affine Kac-Moody algebra, with central element $c$, and let $\lambda \in \mathbb C$. We study two-sided ideals in the central quotient $U_\lambda(L):= U(L)/(c-\lambda)$ of the universal enveloping algebra of $L$, and prove:…

In this paper, we introduce a novel generalization of the classical property of algebras known as "being alternative," which we term "partially alternative." This new concept broadens the scope of alternative algebras, offering a fresh…

We introduce a new way to study representations of the Lie superalgebra $p(n)$. Since the center of the universal enveloping algebra $U$ acts trivially on all irreducible representations, we suggest to study the quotient algebra $\bar{U}$…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic not two or three. We classify up to isomorphism all finite-dimensional Lie superalgebras $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{g}_0\oplus \mathfrak{g}_1$ over $k$, where $\mathfrak{g}_0$ is a three-dimensional simple…

We show that the Poisson centre of truncated maximal parabolic subalgebras of a simple Lie algebra of type B, D and E_6 is a polynomial algebra. In roughly half of the cases the polynomiality of the Poisson centre was already known by a…
