A finite W-algebra is an associative algebra constructed from a semisimple Lie algebra and its nilpotent element. In this survey we review recent developments in the representation theory of W-algebras. We emphasize various interactions…
From a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ satisfying $\mathcal{Z}(\mathfrak{g})=0$ and $\Lambda^2(\mathfrak{g})^\mathfrak{g}=0$ (in particular, for $\g$ semisimple) we describe explicitly all Lie bialgebra structures on extensions of the form…
A central extension is a regular epimorphism in a Barr exact category $\mathscr{C}$ satisfying suitable conditions involving a given Birkhoff subcategory of $\mathscr{C}$ (joint work with G. M. Kelly, 1994). In this paper we take…
Suppose that the underlying field is of characteristic different from $2, 3$. In this paper we first prove that the so-called stem deformations of a free presentations of a finite-dimensional Lie superalgebra $L$ exhaust all the maximal…
We investigate possibility of central extension for non-relativistic conformal algebras in 1+1 dimension. Three different forms of charges can be suggested. A trivial charge for temporal part of the algebra exists for all elements of…
We conjecture the existence of an embedding of the Racah algebra into the universal enveloping algebra of $\mathfrak{sl}_n$. Evidence of this conjecture is offered by realizing both algebras using differential operators and giving an…
The aim of this paper is to investigate in which sense, for $n\geq 3$, $n$-Lie algebras admit universal enveloping algebras. There have been some attempts at a construction (see [10] and [5]) but after analysing those we come to the…
An extension of algebras is a homomorphism of algebras preserving identities. We use extensions of algebras to study the finitistic dimension conjecture over Artin algebras. Let $f: B \to A$ be an extension of Artin algebras. We denote by…
In this paper we determine the projective unitary representations of finite dimensional Lie supergroups whose underlying Lie superalgebra is $\frak{g} = A \otimes \frak{k}$, where $\frak{k}$ is a compact simple Lie superalgebra and $A$ is a…
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…
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 $\bar{U}$…
In this paper I consider locally finite Lie algebras of characteristic zero satisfying the condition that for every finite number of elements $x_{1}, x_{2},..., x_{k}$ of such an algebra $L$ there is finite-dimensional subalgebra $A$ which…
We prove that every finite distributive lattice $D$ can be represented as the congruence lattice of a rectangular lattice $K$ in which all congruences are principal. We verify this result in a stronger form as an extension theorem.
Let $K$ be a field and let $A$ be a finitely generated prime $K$-algebra. We generalize a result of Smith and Zhang, showing that if $A$ is not PI and does not have a locally nilpotent ideal, then the extended centre of $A$ has…
The universal enveloping algebra $U(\mathfrak{g} )$ of a current (super)algebra or loop (super)algebra $\mathfrak{g} $ is considered over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{K} $ with characteristic $p\ge 0$. This paper focuses on the…
We study infinite-dimensional analogues of nilpotent and solvable Lie algebras, focusing on the classes of pro-nilpotent, residually nilpotent, pro-solvable and residually solvable Lie algebras. We extend classical triangularization results…
It is shown that if the universal enveloping algebra of a simple $\mathbb Z^n$-graded Lie algebra is Noetherian, then the Lie algebra is finite-dimensional.
This paper considers K\"{o}the's question of whether every associative locally finite-dimensional (abbr., LFD) central division algebra $R$ over a field $K$ is a normally locally finite (abbr., NLF) algebra over $K$, that is, whether every…
Let $m\in N$, $P(t)\in C[t]$. Then we have the Riemann surfaces (commutative algebras) $R_m(P)=C[t^{\pm1},u | u^m=P(t)]$ and $S_m(P)=C[t , u| u^m=P(t)].$ The Lie algebras $\mathcal{R}_m(P)=Der(R_m(P))$ and $\mathcal{S}_m(P)=Der(S_m(P))$ are…
Classical affine Lie algebras appear e.g. as symmetries of infinite dimensional integrable systems and are related to certain differential equations. They are central extensions of current algebras associated to finite-dimensional Lie…
