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…

We establish combinatorial formulas for the index of a class of matrix Lie algebras whose matrix forms are encoded by strict partial orderings.

We present the classification of real nilpotent quasi-filiform Lie algebras endowed with a complex structure. A nilpotent Lie algebra g is called quasi-filiform is the nilindex is equal to dim(n)-2. We recall that the filiform case…

We give a full classification of 6-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras over an arbitrary field, including fields that are not algebraically closed and fields of characteristic~2. To achieve the classification we use the action of the…

We define and investigate nilpotent Lie algebras associated with quadratic forms. We also present their connections with Lie algebras and Ringel-Hall algebras associated with representation directed algebras.

Every symplectic Lie algebra with degenerate (including non-abelian nilpotent symplectic Lie algebras) has the structure of a quadratic extension. We give a standard model and describe the equivalence classes on the level of corresponding…

We study symplectic structures on nilpotent Lie algebras. Since the classification of nilpotent Lie algebras in any dimension seems to be a crazy dream, we approach this study in case of 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras (in this sub-case also,…

In this paper, we classify finite-dimensional nilpotent Lie superalgebras of superbreadth at most two.

The goal of this paper is to investigate a class of algebras called sandwich algebras, which are certain complex Lie algebras with a nilpotent radical whose elements are sandwiches. We present a classification of all very special sandwich…

This is a survey work on Lie algebras with ad-invariant metrics. We summarize main features, notions and constructions, in the aim of bringing into consideration the main research on the topic. We also give some list of examples in low…

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…

We survey some recent constructions of cluster algebra structures on coordinate rings of unipotent subgroups and unipotent cells of Kac-Moody groups. We also review a quantized version of these results.

In this paper, we classify (n+5)-dimensional nilpotent n-Lie algebras of class two over the arbitrary field, when $n\ge 3$.

For a finite dimensional Lie algebra $L$, it is known that $s(L)=\f{1}{2}(n-1)(n-2)+1-\mathrm{dim} M(L)$ is non negative. Moreover, the structure of all finite nilpotent Lie algebras is characterized when $s(L)=0,1$ in \cite{ni,ni4}. In…

We show that semi-simple lie algebras can be characterized by their maximal nilpotent subalgebra, which is the same as the nilpotent radical of a Borel subalgebra.

We propose the study and description of the structure of complex Lie algebras with nilradical a nilpotent Lie algebra of type 2 by using sl2(C)-representation theory. Our results will be applied to review the classification given in [1] (J.…

The double extension and the T*-extension are classical methods for constructing finite dimensional quadratic Lie algebras. The first one gives an inductive classification in characteristic zero, while the latest produces quadratic…

In this article we study the homology of nilpotent groups. In particular a certain vanishing result for the homology and cohomology of nilpotent groups is proved.

The present work studies deeply quadratic symplectic Lie superalgebras, obtaining, in particular, that they are all nilpotent. Consequently, we provide classifications in low dimensions and identify the double extensions that maintain…

This is a short survey on the recent developments made in the integration theory with effective formulas of algebraic structures stronger or higher than Lie algebras.
