A theorem of Kontsevich relates the homology of certain infinite dimensional Lie algebras to graph homology. We formulate this theorem using the language of reversible operads and mated species. All ideas are explained using a pictorial…

We investigate the concept of a ``Chevalley involution'' within the framework of root-graded Lie algebras with compatible grading. We provide a characterization of all centerless Lie tori of type $A_\ell(\ell\geq2)$ admitting a Chevalley…

We study the relationship between two key concepts in the theory of (di)graphs: the quotient digraph, and the lift $\Gamma^{\alpha}$ of a base (voltage) digraph. These techniques contract or expand a given digraph in order to study its…

We study the coadjoint orbits of a Lie algebra in terms of Cartan class. In fact, the tangent space to a coadjoint orbit $\mathcal{O}(\alpha)$ at the point $\alpha$ corresponds to the characteristic space associated to the left invariant…

For modular Lie superalgebras, new notions are introduced: Divided power homology and divided power cohomology. For illustration, we give presentations (in terms of analogs of Chevalley generators) of finite dimensional Lie (super)algebras…

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…

Left invariant affine structures in a Lie group $G$ are in one-to-one correspondence with left-symmetric algebras over its Lie algebra $\mathfrak g=T_eG$ (``over'' means that the commutator $[x,y]=xy-yx$ coincides with the Lie bracket;…

A class of simple filtered Lie algebras of polynomial growth with increasing filtration is distinguished and presentations of these algebras are explicitely described for the simplest examples. Lie (super)algebras of this class appear in…

The interaction of a Lie algebra $\LL,$ having a weight space decomposition with respect to a nonzero toral subalgebra, with its corresponding root system forms a powerful tool in the study of the structure of $\LL.$ This, in particular,…

For a planar graph with a given f-vector $(f_{0}, f_{1}, f_{2}),$ we introduce a cubic polynomial whose coefficients depend on the f-vector. The planar graph is said to be real if all the roots of the corresponding polynomial are real. Thus…

We introduce and investigate the solvable graph $\Gamma_\mathfrak{S}(L)$ of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra $L$ over a field $F$. The vertices are the elements outside the solvabilizer $\sol(L)$, and two vertices are adjacent whenever they…

In this paper, we consider compatible Hom-Lie algebras as a twisted version of compatible Lie algebras. Compatible Hom-Lie algebras are characterized as Maurer-Cartan elements in a suitable bidifferential graded Lie algebra. We also define…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a semisimple complex Lie algebra of finite dimension and $\mathfrak{h}$ be a semisimple subalgebra. We present an approach to find the branching rules for the pair $\mathfrak{g}\supset\mathfrak{h}$. According to an…

A problem concerning the shift of roots of a system of homogeneous algebraic equations is investigated. Its conservation and decomposition of a multiple root into simple roots are discussed.

Suppose $\mathfrak{g}$ is a semisimple complex Lie algebra and $\mathfrak{h}$ is a Cartan subalgebra of $\mathfrak{g}$. To the pair $(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{h})$ one can associate both a Weyl group and a set of Kac diagrams. There is a…

Any finite dimensional semisimple algebra A over a field K is isomorphic to a direct sum of finite dimensional full matrix rings over suitable division rings. In this paper we will consider the special case where all division rings are…

We characterize compatible families of real-rooted polynomials, allowing both positive and negative leading coefficients. Our characterization naturally generalizes the same-sign characterization used by Chudnovsky and Seymour in their…

We study a relation between distinction and special values of local invariants for representations of the general linear group over a quadratic extension of $p$-adic fields. We show that the local Rankin-Selberg root number of any pair of…

We study the differential and metric structures of the set of real square roots of a non-singular real matrix, under the assumption that the matrix and its square roots are semi-simple, or symmetric, or orthogonal.

We analyse divergent diagrams of \(k\)-fold map-germs on \((\mathbb{C}^n,0)\), for $k, n \geq 2$, associated with reflections, adapting to the complex setting the theory of folds associated with involutions on \((\mathbb{R}^n,0)\). In the…
