This paper concerns the algebraic structure of finite-dimensional complex Leibniz algebras. In particular, we introduce left central and symmetric Leibniz algebras, and study the poset of Lie subalgebras using an associative bilinear…
A finite-dimensional Lie algebra is called an A-algebra if all of its nilpotent subalgebras are abelian. These arise in the study of constant Yang-Mills potentials and have also been particularly important in relation to the problem of…
We continue the algebraic study of almost inner derivations of Lie algebras over a field of characteristic zero and determine these derivations for free nilpotent Lie algebras, for almost abelian Lie algebras, for Lie algebras whose…
From the theory of finite dimensional Lie algebras it is known that every finite dimensional Lie algebra is decomposed into a semidirect sum of semisimple subalgebra and solvable radical. Moreover, due to work of Mal'cev the study of…
In extending results from Lie to Leibniz algebras, it is helpful to have techniques which translate results from the former to the latter without having to repeat the (perhaps modified) arguments. Such a technique is developed in this work,…
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…
In this paper we identify the structure of complex finite-dimensional Leibniz algebras with associated Lie algebras $sl_2^1\oplus sl_2^2\oplus \dots \oplus sl_2^s\oplus R,$ where $R$ is a solvable radical. The classifications of such…
In this paper, we define on one hand, the notions of characteristics as well as central characteristics ideals of a given Leibniz algebra g and provide a necessary condition under which for two given subalgebras J and K of g such that, J IS…
We define the notion of an almost polynomial identity of an associative algebra $R$, and show that its existence implies the existence of an actual polynomial identity of $R$. A similar result is also obtained for Lie algebras and Jordan…
Leibniz algebras ${\mathcal E}_n$ were introduced as algebraic structure underlying U-duality. Algebras ${\mathcal E}_3$ derived from Bianchi three-dimensional Lie algebras are classified here. Two types of algebras are obtained:…
We introduce symplectic left Leibniz algebras and symplectic right Leibniz algebras as generalizations of symplectic Lie algebras. These algebras possess a left symmetric product and are Lie-admissible. We describe completely symmetric…
We introduce the notion of quasi-triangular Leibniz bialgebras, which can be constructed from solutions of the classical Leibniz Yang-Baxter equation (CLYBE) whose skew-symmetric parts are invariant. In addition to triangular Leibniz…
We classify all nonnilpotent, solvable Leibniz algebras with the property that all proper subalgebras are nilpotent. This generalizes the work of Stitzinger and Towers in Lie algebras. We show several examples which illustrate the…
A characterization of the finite-dimensional Leibniz algebras with an abelian subalgebra of codimension two over a field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic $p\neq2$ is given. In short, a finite-dimensional Leibniz algebra of dimension $n$ with…
Since Leibniz algebras were introduced by Loday as a generalization of Lie algebras, there has been a lot of interest in which results of the latter extend to the former. Cyclic algebras, those generated by one element, are a useful tool…
Leibniz algebras are non skew-symmetric generalization of Lie algebras. In this paper we introduce the notion of anti-Leibniz algebras as a "non commutative version" of mock-Lie algebras. Low dimensional classification of such algebras is…
Lie quasi-bialgebras are natural generalisations of Lie bialgebras introduced by Drinfeld. To any Lie quasi-bialgebra structure of finite-dimensional (G, \mu, \gamma ,\phi ?), correspond one Lie algebra structure on D = G\oplus G*, called…
We say that a finite dimensional Lie algebra is quasi-reductive if it has a linear form whose stabilizer for the coadjoint representation, modulo the center, is a reductive Lie algebra with a center consisting of semisimple elements.…
We study a new class of infinite dimensional Lie algebras, which has important applications to the theory of integrable equations. The construction of these algebras is very similar to the one for automorphic functions and this motivates…
