We study {\em disemisimple} Lie algebras, i.e., Lie algebras which can be written as a vector space sum of two semisimple subalgebras. We show that a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ is disemisimple if and only if its solvable radical coincides…

This paper consists of two parts. First, motivated by classic results, we determine the subsets of a given nilpotent Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ (respectively, of the Grassmannian of two-planes of $\mathfrak{g}$) whose sign of Ricci…

We study solvability, nilpotency and splitting property for algebraic supergroups over an arbitrary field $K$ of characteristic $\mathrm{char}\, K \ne 2$. Our first main theorem tells us that an algebraic supergroup $\mathbb{G}$ is solvable…

A 2-step nilpotent Lie algebra n is said to be of type (p,q)if dim(n)=p+q and dim([n,n])=p. By considering a class of 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras naturally attached to graphs, we prove that there exist indecomposable, 2-step nilpotent Lie…

All finite-dimensional indecomposable solvable Lie algebras $L(n,f)$, having the triangular algebra T(n) as their nilradical, are constructed. The number of nonnilpotent elements $f$ in $L(n,f)$ satisfies $1\leq f\leq n-1$ and the dimension…

Let L be a Lie pseudoalgebra, a in L. We show that, if a generates a (finite) solvable subalgebra S=<a>, then one may find a lifting a' in S of [a] in S/S' such that <a'> is nilpotent. We then apply this result towards vertex algebras: we…
