In this article, we generalize Richardson's example of a rigid Lie algebra with non-trivial $H^2$ to the Leibniz setting. Namely, we consider the hemisemidirect product ${\mathfrak h}$ of a semidirect product Lie algebra…
We investigate structural and rigidity properties of \emph{Lie skew braces} (LSBs), objects essentially known in the literature as \emph{post--Lie groups}, obtained by endowing a manifold with two compatible group laws that share the same…
If a Lie algebra structures $\gG$ on a vector space is the sum of a family of mutually compatible Lie algebra structures $\gG_i$, we say that $\gG$ is \emph{simply assembled} from $\gG_s$'s. By repeating this procedure several times one…
A subalgebra of a semisimple Lie algebra is wide if every simple module of the semisimple Lie algebra remains indecomposable when restricted to the subalgebra. A subalgebra is narrow if the restrictions of all non-trivial simple modules to…
Given an algebraic Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ over $\mathbb{C}$, we canonically associate to it a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}_{\infty}$ defined over $\mathbb{C}_{\infty}$-the reduction of $\mathbb{C}$ mod infinitely large prime, and show that…
In this article we investigate the question of the lowest possible dimension that a sympathetic Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ can attain, when its Levi subalgebra $\mathfrak{g}_L$ is simple. We establish the structure of the nilradical of a…
We consider seven-dimensional unimodular Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}$ admitting exact $G_2$-structures, focusing our attention on those with vanishing third Betti number $b_3(\mathfrak{g})$. We discuss some examples, both in the case when…
Recently, E.Feigin introduced a very interesting contraction $\mathfrak q$ of a semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ (see arXiv:1007.0646 and arXiv:1101.1898). We prove that these non-reductive Lie algebras retain good invariant-theoretic…
By using the concept of weight graph associated to certain nilpotent Lie algebras $\frak{g}$, we find necessary and sufficient conditions for a semidirect product $\frak{g}\oplus T_{i}$, where $T_{i}<T$ is a subalgebra of a maximal torus of…
A Lie algebra $L$ is said to be $(\Theta_{n},sl_{n})$-graded if it contains a simple subalgebra $\mathfrak{g}$ isomorphic to $sl_{n}$ such that the $\mathfrak{g}$-module $L$ decomposes into copies of the adjoint module, the trivial module,…
The main goal of this paper is to prove the following theorem: Let $\frak k$ be an $\frak {sl}_2$-subalgebra of a semisimple Lie algebra $\frak g$, none of whose simple factors is of type $A1$. Then there exists a positive integer $b(\frak…
We say that a Lie algebra $\gfr$ is quasi-state rigid if every Ad-invariant continuous Lie quasi-state on it is the directional derivative of a homogeneous quasimorphism. Extending work of Entov and Polterovich, we show that every reductive…
In this work we state a result that relates the cohomology groups of a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and a current Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g} \otimes \mathcal{S}$, by means of a short exact sequence -- similar to the universal coefficients…
Every Lie algebra over a field $E$ gives rise to new Lie algebras over any subfield $F \subseteq E$ by restricting the scalar multiplication. This paper studies the structure of these underlying Lie algebra in relation to the structure of…
We show that for a given nilpotent Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ with $Z(\mathfrak{g})\subseteq [\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{g}]$ all commutative post-Lie algebra structures, or CPA-structures, on $\mathfrak{g}$ are complete. This means that all…
Let $\mathbb{K}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. A finite dimensional Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ over $\mathbb{K}$ is said to be stable if there exists a linear form $g\in\mathfrak{g}^{*}$ and a Zariski open subset in…
In this paper we focus on algebraic aspects of contractions of Lie and Leibniz algebras. The rigidity of algebras plays an important role in the study of their varieties. The rigid algebras generate the irreducible components of this…
We give a complete classification of Airy structures for finite-dimensional simple Lie algebras over $\mathbb C$, and to some extent also over $\mathbb R$, up to isomorphisms and gauge transformations. The result is that the only algebras…
A complex symplectic structure on a Lie algebra $\lie h$ is an integrable complex structure $J$ with a closed non-degenerate $(2,0)$-form. It is determined by $J$ and the real part $\Omega$ of the $(2,0)$-form. Suppose that $\lie h$ is a…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be an algebra over $K$ with a bilinear operation $[\cdot,\cdot]:\mathfrak{g}\times\mathfrak{g}\rightarrow\mathfrak{g}$ not necessarily associative. For $A\subseteq\mathfrak{g}$, let $A^{k}$ be the set of elements of…
