We describe certain almost-simple algebraic supergroups over an algebraically closed field of odd or zero characteristic. In addition to supergroups with simple Lie superalgebras from Kac's theorem, we construct new supergroups whose Lie…

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…

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…

We prove that if $\frak{g}^{\prime}$ is a contraction of a Lie algebra $\frak{g}$ then the number of functionally independent invariants of $\frak{g}^{\prime}$ is at least that of $\frak{g}$. This allows to determine explicitly the number…

Derivations extend the concept of differentiation from functions to algebraic structures as linear operators satisfying the Leibniz rule. In Lie algebras, derivations form a Lie algebra via the commutator bracket of linear endomorphisms.…
