We show that every Lie algebra or superLie algebra has a canonical braiding on it, and that in terms of this its enveloping algebra appears as a flat space with braided-commuting coordinate functions. This also gives a new point of view…

Let $L$ be a finite dimensional Lie $F$-algebra endowed with a generalized action by an associative algebra $H$. We investigate the exponential growth rate of the sequence of $H$-graded codimensions $c_n^H(L)$ of $L$ which is a measure for…

We study the geometrical structure of the coadjoint orbits of an arbitrary complex or real Lie algebra ${\mathfrak g}$ containing some ideal ${\mathfrak n}$. It is shown that any coadjoint orbit in ${\mathfrak g}^*$ is a bundle with the…

For every parabolic subgroup $P$ of a Lie supergroup $G$, the homogeneous superspace $G/P$ carries a $G$-invariant supergeometry. We address the question whether $\mathfrak{g}=\text{Lie}(G)$ is the maximal supersymmetry of this…

We characterise Lie groups with bi-invariant bargmannian, galilean or carrollian structures. Localising at the identity, we show that Lie algebras with ad-invariant bargmannian, carrollian or galilean structures are actually determined by…

Let $X$ be a finite simply connected CW complex of dimension $n$. The loop space homology $H\_*(\Omega X;\mathbb Q)$ is the universal enveloping algebra of a graded Lie algebra $L\_X$ isomorphic with $ pi\_{*-1} (X)\otimes \mathbb Q$. Let…

We realize any submultiplicative increasing function which is equivalent to a polynomial proportion of itself as the growth function of a finitely generated simple Lie algebra. As an application, we resolve two open problems posed by…

A finite-dimensional Lie algebra $L$ over a field $F$ is called an $A$-algebra if all of its nilpotent subalgebras are abelian. This is analogous to the concept of an $A$-group: a finite group with the property that all of its Sylow…

We study boundary representations of hyperbolic groups $\Gamma$ on the (compactly embedded) function space $W^{\log,2}(\partial\Gamma)\subset L^2(\partial\Gamma)$, the domain of the logarithmic Laplacian on $\partial\Gamma$. We show that…

Let $G$ be a semisimple linear algebraic group over a field $k$ and let $G^+(k)$ be the subgroup generated by the subgroups $R_u(Q)(k)$, where $Q$ ranges over all the minimal $k$-parabolic subgroups $Q$ of $G$. We prove that if $G^+(k)$ is…

The "coquecigrue" problem for Leibniz algebras is that of finding an appropriate generalization of Lie's third theorem, that is, of finding a generalization of the notion of group such that Leibniz algebras are the corresponding tangent…

Suppose $g_t$ is a $1$-parameter $\mathrm{Ad}$-diagonalizable subgroup of a Lie group $G$ and $\Gamma < G$ is a lattice. We study the dimension of bounded and divergent orbits of $g_t$ emanating from a class of curves lying on leaves of the…

In this article we improve the known uniform bound for subgroup growth of Chevalley groups over $\mathbf{G}(\mathbb{F}_p[[t]])$. We introduce a new parameter, the ridgeline number $v(\mathbf{G})$, and give new bounds for the subgroup growth…

We consider analogues of Grigorchuk-Gupta-Sidki (GGS-)groups acting on trees of growing degree; the so-called growing GGS-groups. These groups are not just infinite and do not possess the congruence subgroup property, but many of them are…

Let $\g$ be a locally reductive complex Lie algebra which admits a faithful countable-dimensional finitary representation $V$. Such a Lie algebra is a split extension of an abelian Lie algebra by a direct sum of copies of $\sl_\infty$,…

We consider the natural Lie algebra structure on the (associative) group algebra of a finite group $G$, and show that the Lie subalgebras associated to natural involutive antiautomorphisms of this group algebra are reductive ones. We give a…

We define Lie subalgebras of the group algebra of a finite pseudo-reflection group that are involved in the definition of the Cherednik KZ-systems, and determine their structure. We provide applications for computing the Zariski closure of…

We construct a generalised notion of Kac-Moody algebras using smooth maps from the non-compact manifolds ${\cal M}=$SL$(2,\mathbb R)$ and ${\cal M}=$ SL$(2,\mathbb R)/U(1)$ to a finite-dimensional simple Lie group $G$. This construction is…

Let $\gg$ be the Lie algebra of a compact Lie group and let $\theta$ be any automorphism of $\gg$. Let $\gk$ denote the fixed point subalgebra $\gg^\theta$. In this paper we present LiE programs that, for any finite dimensional complex…

Of four types of Kaplansky algebras, type-2 and type-4 algebras have previously unobserved $\mathbb{Z}/2$-gradings: nonlinear in roots. A method assigning a simple Lie superalgebra to every $\mathbb{Z}/2$-graded simple Lie algebra in…
