An element $x$ of a Lie algebra $L$ over the field $F$ is extremal if $[x,[x,L]]=Fx$. Under minor assumptions, it is known that, for a simple Lie algebra $L$, the extremal geometry ${\cal{E}}(L)$ is a subspace of the projective geometry of…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field. Fix integers $n$ and $b$ with $n\geq 3$ and $1\leq b\leq n-1.$ Let $T^d_k$ be the moduli space of hypersurfaces $[F]$ in $\mathbb{P}^n_k$ of degree $l$ whose singular locus contains a subscheme of…

Let $n$ be a natural number greater or equal to $3$, $R$ a commutative ring and $\sigma\in GL_n(R)$. We show that $t_{kl}(\sigma_{ij})$ (resp. $t_{kl}(\sigma_{ii}-\sigma_{jj}))$ where $i\neq j$ and $k\neq l$ can be expressed as a product of…

Let $\mathfrak{s}$ $\ltimes$ $\mathfrak{r}$ be a Levi decomposable Lie algebra, with Levi factor $\mathfrak{s}$, and radical $\mathfrak{r}$. A module $V$ of $\mathfrak{s}$ $\ltimes$ $\mathfrak{r}$ is cyclic indecomposable if it is…

We prove two structure theorems for simple, locally finite dimensional Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$ which give sufficient conditions for the algebras to be of the form $[R^{(-)}, R^{(-)}] / (Z(R)…

A finite dimensional Lie algebra L with magic number c(L) is said to satisfy Rentschler's property if it admits an abelian Lie subalgebra H of dimension at least c(L) - 1. We study the occurrence of this new property in various Lie…
