In this paper, we investigate nilpotent Lie algebras $ L $ of nilpotency class $3 $ and provide a complete classification of those satisfying $ \dim L^2 = 3 $ and $Z(L) = L^3 \cong A(2). $ Furthermore, we explicitly characterize the…
We give a systematic study of the model theory of generic nilpotent groups and Lie algebras. We show that the Fra\"iss\'e limit of 2-nilpotent groups of exponent $p$ studied by Baudisch is 2-dependent and NSOP$_{1}$. We prove that the class…
Let g be a complex simple Lie algebra and e a nilpotent element in g. To a certain nilpotent subalgebra m attached to e, called an admissible subalgebra of g, we associate an endomorphism algebra H. When m is constructed from a good grading…
Let $\mathbb K$ be a field of characteristic zero and $A$ an integral domain over $\mathbb K.$ The Lie algebra $\Der_{\mathbb K} A$ of all $\mathbb K$-derivations of $A$ carries very important information about the algebra $A.$ This Lie…
An analogue of the Wedderbur principal theorem (WPT) is considered for finite dimensional Jordan superalgebras A with solvable radical N, such that N^2=0 and A/N is isomorphic to Josp_n|2m(F), where F is an algebraicallly closed field of…
Let $\mathfrak{g} = \mathfrak{g}_{\overline{0}} \oplus \mathfrak{g}_{\overline{1}}$ be a Lie superalgebra over an algebraically closed field, $k$, of characteristic 0. An endotrivial $\mathfrak{g}$-module, $M$, is a…
We make several observations relating the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}_2 \subset \mathfrak{so}(7)$, associative $3$-planes, and $\mathfrak{so}(4)$ subalgebras. Some are likely well-known but not easy to find in the literature, while other…
In this paper we study the varieties of nilpotent Lie superalgebras of dimension $\leq 5$. We provide the algebraic classification of these superalgebras and obtain the irreducible components in every variety. As a by product we construct…
Let L be a Lie superalgebra over a fled of characteristic p\neq 2 with enveloping algebra U(L) or let L be a restricted Lie superalgebra over a field of characteristic p > 2 with restricted enveloping algebra u(L). In this note, we…
We continue our study of the Wilson conjecture for $\omega$-categorical Lie algebras and prove that $\omega$-categorical $4$-Engel Lie algebras of characteristic $3$ are nilpotent. We develop a set of tools to adapt in the definable context…
We look at the odd nilpotent orbits of osp(2n+1,2n), giving a combinatorial interpretation which enables us, via the square map, to explain the link with even nilpotent orbits. We then study the closure ordering of the odd nilpotent orbits.…
We consider the conjugation-action of the Borel subgroup of the symplectic or the orthogonal group on the variety of nilpotent complex elements of nilpotency degree $2$ in its Lie algebra. We translate the setup to a…
We obtain several restrictions on the terms of the ascending central series of a nilpotent Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ under the presence of a complex structure $J$. In particular, we find a bound for the dimension of the center of $\mathfrak…
Let L be a restricted Lie algebra over a field of characteristic p > 2 and denote by u(L) its restricted enveloping algebra. We determine the conditions under which the set of symmetric elements of u(L) with respect to the principal…
Let $\mathfrak p$ be a proper parabolic subalgebra of a simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$. Writing $\mathfrak p=\mathfrak r\oplus \mathfrak m$, with $\mathfrak r$ being the Levi factor of $\mathfrak p$ and $\mathfrak m$ the nilpotent radical…
The theories of $\pi$-points and modules of constant Jordan type have been a topic of much recent interest in the field of finite group scheme representation theory. These theories allow for a finite group scheme module $M$ to be restricted…
Jacobson proved that if a Lie algebra admits an invertible derivation, it must be nilpotent. He also suspected, though incorrectly, that the converse might be true: that every nilpotent Lie algebra has an invertible derivation. We prove…
First we describe the Skjelbred-Sund method for classifying nilpotent Lie algebras. Then we use it to classify 6-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras over any field of characteristic not 2. The proof of this classification is essentially…
We establish an effective version of the classical Lie--Kolchin Theorem. Namely, let $A,B\in\mathrm{GL}_m(\mathbb{C})$ be quasi--unipotent matrices such that the Jordan Canonical Form of $B$ consists of a single block, and suppose that for…
We describe algorithms for computing the induced nilpotent orbits in semisimple Lie algebras. We use them to obtain the induction tables for the Lie algebras of exceptional type. This also yields the classification of the rigid nilpotent…
