In this article we investigate the question of the lowest possible dimension that a sympathetic Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ can attain, when its Levi subalgebra $\mathfrak{g}_L$ is simple. We establish the structure of the nilradical of a…

We study the structure of graded Lie superalgebras with arbitrary dimension and over an arbitrary field ${\mathbb K}$. We show that any of such algebras ${\mathfrak L}$ with a symmetric $G$-support is of the form ${\mathfrak L} = U +…

A finite dimensional filiform K-Lie algebra is a nilpotent Lie algebra g whose nil index is maximal, that is equal to dim g -1. We describe necessary and sufficient conditions for a filiform algebra over an algebraically closed field of…

The maximum extensions of finite-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras are considered. In particular, it is proved that in the general case such an extension is not unique, which refutes one L. Snoble's assumption.

We study a certain class of non-maximal rank contractions of the nilpotent Lie algebra $\frak{g}_{m}$ and show that these contractions are completable Lie algebras. As a consequence a family of solvable complete Lie algebras of non-maximal…

A nilpotent Lie algebra ${\mathfrak g}$ is said to be naturally graded if it is isomorphic to its associated graded Lie algebra ${\rm gr} \mathfrak{g}$ with respect to filtration by ideals of the lower central series. This concept is…

The prolongation g^{(k)} of a linear Lie algebra g \subset gl(V) plays an important role in the study of symmetries of G-structures. Cartan and Kobayashi-Nagano have given a complete classification of irreducible linear Lie algebras g…

Let $L$ be an $(m\vert n)$-dimensional nilpotent Lie superalgebra where $m + n \geq 4$ and $n \geq 1$. This paper classifies such nilpotent Lie superalgebras $L$ with a derived subsuperalgebra of dimension $m+n-2$ such that $\gamma(L) = m +…

In this paper we introduce the notion of pure non-characteristically nilpotent Lie algebra and under a condition we prove that a complex maximal extension of a finite-dimensional pure non-characteristically nilpotent Lie algebra is…

An absolute parallelism for $2$-nondegenerate CR manifolds $M$ of hypersurface type was recently constructed independently by Isaev-Zaitsev, Medori-Spiro, and Pocchiola in the minimal possible dimension ($\dim M=5$), and for $\dim M=7$ in…

A Lie algebra $L$ is said to be $(\Theta_{n},sl_{n})$-graded if it contains a simple subalgebra $\mathfrak{g}$ isomorphic to $sl_{n}$ such that the $\mathfrak{g}$-module $L$ decomposes into copies of the adjoint module, the trivial module,…

In a joint work with N. Mok in 1997, we proved that for an irreducible representation $G \subset {\bf GL}(V),$ if a holomorphic $G$-structure exists on a uniruled projective manifold, then the Lie algebra of $G$ has nonzero prolongation. We…

An infinite filiform Lie algebra L is residually nilpotent and its graded associated with respect to the lower central series has smallest possible dimension in each degree but is still infinite. This means that gr(L) is of dimension two in…

We show how various constructions of $\mathbb{Z}$-graded Lie superalgebras are related to each other. These Lie superalgebras have a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ as the subalgebra at degree 0, an odd $\mathfrak{g}$-module V as the subspace at…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive linear algebraic group over a field $k$. Using ideas from geometric invariant theory, we study the notion of $G$-complete reducibility over $k$ for a Lie subalgebra $\mathfrak h$ of the Lie algebra…

We prove a number of results on integrability and extendability of Lie algebras of unbounded skew-symmetric operators with common dense domain in Hilbert space. By integrability for a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, we mean that there is an…
