Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group with $\mathfrak g=Lie(G)$ and $\mathcal O\subset\mathfrak g$ a nilpotent orbit. If $H$ is a reductive subgroup of $G$ with $Lie(H)=\mathfrak h$, then $\mathfrak g=\mathfrak h\oplus\mathfrak m$, where…
Grunewald and O'Halloran conjectured in 1993 that every complex nilpotent Lie algebra is the degeneration of another, non isomorphic, Lie algebra. We prove the conjecture for the class of nilpotent Lie algebras admitting a semisimple…
With this paper we start a programme aiming at connecting two vast scientific areas: Jordan algebras and representation theory. Within representation theory, we focus on non-compact, real forms of semisimple Lie algebras and groups as well…
We show that for positive integer values $l$ of the parameter in the conformal mechanics model the system possesses a hidden nonlinear superconformal symmetry, in which reflection plays a role of the grading operator. In addition to the…

For an odd prime $p$, we realize the trivial representation of $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbb{Z}/p^n\mathbb{Z})$ on the free $\mathbb{Z}/p^n \mathbb{Z}$-module of rank one as a subquotient of a direct sum of symmetric power representations (twisted…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a finite-dimensional Lie algebra and $M$ be a $\mathfrak{g}$-module. The Fernando-Kac subalgebra of $\mathfrak{g}$ associated to $M$ is the subset $\mathfrak{g}[M]\subset\mathfrak{g}$ of all elements $g\in\mathfrak{g}$…
A $Z_2\times Z_2$-graded Lie superalgebra $g$ is a $Z_2\times Z_2$-graded algebra with a bracket $[.,.]$ that satisfies certain graded versions of the symmetry and Jacobi identity. In particular, despite the common terminology, $g$ is not a…
A series invariant for a certain class of closed 3-manifolds associated with a type I Lie superalgebra sl(m|n) was introduced recently. We find a q-series for the other Lie superalgebra of the same type of the minimum rank.
A 2-toroidal Lie superalgebra is constructed using bosonic fields and a ghost field. The superalgebra contains $osp(1|2n)^{(1)}$ as a distinguished subalgebra and behaves similarly to the toroidal Lie superalgebra of type $B(0, n)$.…
In this paper, we establish a converse to Schur's theorem for Lie superalgebras \( L \), focusing on cases where the minimal generator number pairs \((p \vert q)\) of \( L/Z(L) \) are considered, and where the superdimension \(…

We discuss quantum deformations of Jordanian type for Lie superalgebras. These deformations are described by twisting functions with support from Borel subalgebras and they are multiparameter in the general case. The total twists are…
We construct a new class of finite dimensional indecomposable representations of simple superalgebras which may explain, in a natural way, the existence of the heavier elementary particles. In type I Lie superalgebras sl(m/n) and osp(2/2n),…
