We introduce hom-Lie-Rinehart algebras as an algebraic analogue of hom-Lie algebroids, and systematically describe a cohomology complex by considering coefficient modules. We define the notion of extensions for hom-Lie-Rinehart algebras. In…

A nilpotent Lie algebra ${\mathfrak g}$ is said to be naturally graded if it is isomorphic to its associated graded Lie algebra ${\rm gr} \mathfrak{g}$ with respect to filtration by ideals of the lower central series. This concept is…

In this thesis we describe the universal central extension of two important classes of so-called root-graded Lie algebras defined over a commutative associative unital ring $k.$ Root-graded Lie algebras are Lie algebras which are graded by…

The algebras of the title are infinite-dimensional graded Lie algebras $L= \bigoplus_{i=1}^{\infty}L_i$, over a field of positive characteristic $p$, that are generated by an element of degree $1$ and an element of degree $p$, and satisfy…

In this paper we generalize classical results on Lie algebras and universal enveloping algebras of Lie algebras to Lie-Rinehart algebras. We define for any Lie-Rinehart algebra $L$ and any cocycle $f$ in $Z^2(L,B)$, a universal enveloping…

We classify gradings by arbitrary abelian groups on the classical simple Lie superalgebras $P(n)$, $n \geq 2$, and on the simple associative superalgebras $M(m,n)$, $m, n \geq 1$, over an algebraically closed field: fine gradings up to…

If a Lie algebra structure g on a vector space is the sum of a family of mutually compatible Lie algebra structures g_i's, we say that g is simply assembled from the g_i's. Repeating this procedure with a number of Lie algebras, themselves…

In this paper we classify solvable Leibniz algebras whose nilradical is a null-filiform algebra. We extend the obtained classification to the case when the solvable Leibniz algebra is decomposed as a direct sum of its nilradical, which is a…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field $\Bbbk$ of characteristic zero. Define the universal grading group $\mathcal{C}(\mathfrak{g})$ as having one generator $g_{\rho}$ for each irreducible…

We construct a graded Lie algebra in which a solution to the vacuum Einstein equations is any element of degree 1 whose bracket with itself is zero. Each solution generates a cochain complex, whose first cohomology is linearized gravity…

We call a unital locally convex algebra $A$ a continuous inverse algebra if its unit group $A^\times$ is open and inversion is a continuous map. For any smooth action of a, possibly infinite-dimensional, connected Lie group $G$ on a…

In this paper a characterisation is given of solvable complemented Lie algebras. They decompose as a direct sum of abelian subalgebras and their ideals relate nicely to this decomposition. The class of such algebras is shown to be a…

We study the structures of arbitrary split $\delta$ Jordan-Lie algebras with symmetric root systems. We show that any of such algebras $L$ is of the form $L = U + \sum\limits_{[j] \in \Lambda/\sim}I_{[j]}$ with $U$ a subspace of $H$ and any…

We introduce a notion of duality for a Lie-Rinehart algebra giving certain bilinear pairings in its cohomology generalizing the usual notions of Poincar\'e duality in Lie algebra cohomology and de Rham cohomology. We show that the duality…

For a Lie-Rinehart algebra (A,L), generators for the Gerstenhaber algebra \Lambda_A L correspond bijectively to right (A,L)-connections on A in such a way that B-V structures correspond to right (A,L)-module structures on A. When L is…

Lie-Yamaguti algebras (or generalized Lie triple systems) are binary-ternary algebras intimately related to reductive homogeneous spaces. The Lie-Yamaguti algebras which are irreducible as modules over their Lie inner derivation algebra are…
