Lie algebroid Yang-Mills theories are a generalization of Yang-Mills gauge theories, replacing the structural Lie algebra by a Lie algebroid E. In this note we relax the conditions on the fiber metric of E for gauge invariance of the action…

A Lie (super)algebra with a non-degenerate invariant symmetric bilinear form will be called a NIS-Lie (super)algebra. The double extension of a NIS-Lie (super)algebra is the result of simultaneously adding to it a central element and an…

Given a finite dimensional representation of a semisimple Lie algebra there are two ways of constructing link invariants: 1) quantum group invariants using the R-matrix, 2) the Kontsevich universal link invariant followed by the Lie algebra…

We study the structure of a metric $n$-Lie algebra $\mathcal {G}$ over the complex field $\mathbb C$. Let $\mathcal {G}= \mathcal S\oplus {\mathcal R}$ be the Levi decomposition, where $\mathcal R$ is the radical of $\mathcal {G}$ and…

Let H be a regular element of an irreducible Lie Algebra g, and let mu be the orbital measure supported on the Adjoint orbit of H. We show that the k-th power of the Fourier transform of mu is in L^2(g) if and only if k > dim g/(dim g-rank…

We show that finitely subgraded Lie algebras of compact operators have invariant subspaces when conditions of quasinilpotence are imposed on certain components of the subgrading. This allows us to obtain some useful information about the…

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 objective of this project is to determine all irreducible modules of a given modular Lie algebra. In contrast to ordinary Lie algebras, modular Lie algebras require an additional structure known as the p-mapping. The minimal…

A metric algebra is a metric variant of the notion of $\Sigma$-algebra, first introduced in universal algebra to deal with algebras equipped with metric structures such as normed vector spaces. In this paper, we showed metric versions of…

Let $\FRAK{g}$ be a classical simple Lie superalgebra. To every nilpotent orbit $\cal O$ in $\FRAK{g}_0$ we associate a Clifford algebra over the field of rational functions on $\cal O$. We find the rank, $k(\cal O)$ of the bilinear form…

A Lie group G has many left invariant metrics having drastically different curvature properties. If we regard G as a flat and globalizable absolute parallelism as in [O1], then G has a canonical metric. We study some surprising consequences…
