The spectrum of an admissible subalgebra $\mathscr{A}(G)$ of $\mathscr{LUC}(G)$, the algebra of right uniformly continuous functions on a locally compact group $G$, constitutes a semigroup compactification $G^\mathscr{A}$ of $G$. In this…

Let $\mathfrak g$ be an affine Lie algebra with index set $I = \{0, 1, 2, \cdots , n\}$ and ${\mathfrak g}^L$ be its Langlands dual. It is conjectured by Kashiwara et al.([16]) that for each $k \in I \setminus \{0\}$ the affine Lie algebra…

We construct a convenient basis for all real semisimple Lie algebras by means of an adapted Chevalley basis of the complexification. It determines rational and in fact half-integer structure constants which we express only in terms of the…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a real finite-dimensional Lie algebra containing pointed generating invariant closed convex cones. We determine those derivations $D$ of $\mathfrak{g}$ which induce a 3-grading of the form $\mathfrak{g} =…

We prove a graded version of Alev-Polo's rigidity theorem: the homogenization of the universal enveloping algebra of a semisimple Lie algebra and the Rees ring of the Weyl algebras $A_n(k)$ cannot be isomorphic to their fixed subring under…

We introduce the class of split Lie-Rinehart algebras as the natural extension of the one of split Lie algebras. We show that if $L$ is a tight split Lie-Rinehart algebra over an associative and commutative algebra $A,$ then $L$ and $A$…

Let $k$ be a field of any characteristic, $V$ a finite-dimensional vector space over $k$, and $S^d(V^*)$ be the $d$-th symmetric power of the dual space $V^*$. Given a linear map $\varphi$ on $V$ and an eigenvector $w$ of $\varphi$, we…

We give an affirmative answer to the question whether there exist Lie algebras for suitable closed subgroups of the unitary group $U(\mathcal{H})$ in a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ with $U(\mathcal{H})$ equipped with the strong operator…

We obtain a characterization of the real Lie algebras admitting abelian complex structures in terms of certain affine Lie algebras $\frak a \frak f \frak f (A)$, where $A$ is a commutative algebra. These affine Lie algebras are natural…

For a general affine connection with parallel torsion and curvature, we show that a post-Lie algebra structure exists on its space of vector fields, generalizing previous results for flat connections. However, for non-flat connections, the…

We study sympathetic Lie algebras, namely perfect and complete Lie algebras. They arise among other things in the study of adjoint Lie algebra cohomology. This is motivated by a conjecture of Pirashvili, which says that a non-trivial…

Four-dimensional, oriented Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}$ which satisfy the tame-compatible question of Donaldson for all almost complex structures $J$ on $\mathfrak{g}$ are completely described. As a consequence, examples are given of…

We give a method to obtain new 7-dimensional Lie algebras endowed with closed and coclosed G2-structures starting from 6-dimensional Lie algebras with symplectic half- at SU(3)-structures and half- at SU(3)- structures, respectively.…

We consider the problem of constructing semisimple subalgebras of real (semi-) simple Lie algebras. We develop computational methods that help to deal with this problem. Our methods boil down to solving a set of polynomial equations. In…

Let $\mathbb K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Let $V$ be a module over the polynomial ring $\mathbb K[x,y]$. The actions of $x$ and $y$ determine linear operators $P$ and $Q$ on $V$ as a vector space over $\mathbb…

We exhibit in this article a contraction of the direct product Lie algebra $g\oplus g$ of a finite-dimensional complex Lie algebra $g$ onto the semi-direct product Lie algebra $g\rtimes g$, where the first factor $g$ is viewed as a trivial…

In this note we introduce the notion of $T^*-$extension $T^*{\mathfrak g}$ of a Lie superalgebra ${\mathfrak g}$, i.e. an extension of ${\mathfrak g}$ by its dual space ${\mathfrak g}^*$. The natural pairing induces on $T^*{\mathfrak g}$ an…

There is a natural way to construct sub-Riemannian structures that depend on $n$ parameters on compact Lie groups. These structures are related to the filtrations of Lie subalgebras $\mathfrak g_0 < \mathfrak g_1 < \mathfrak g_2 < \dots <…
