Graded contractions of the fine $\mathbb{Z}_2^3$-grading on the complex exceptional Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}_2$ are classified up to equivalence and up to strongly equivalence. In particular, a large family of 14-dimensional Lie algebras…
Left invariant affine structures in a Lie group $G$ are in one-to-one correspondence with left-symmetric algebras over its Lie algebra $\mathfrak g=T_eG$ (``over'' means that the commutator $[x,y]=xy-yx$ coincides with the Lie bracket;…
We study rigidity questions for pairs of Lie algebras $(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{n})$ admitting a post-Lie algebra structure. We show that if $\mathfrak{g}$ is semisimple and $\mathfrak{n}$ is arbitrary, then we have rigidity in the sense…

We consider the 2-generated free metabelian associative and Lie algebras over the complex field and the invariants of the dihedral groups of finite order acting on these algebras. In the associative case we find a finite set of generators…

We finish the determination of the invariants of the coadjoint representation of six dimensional real Lie algebras, by determining a fundamental set of invariants for the 99 isomorphism classes of solvable Lie algebras with five dimensional…
After classifying indecomposable quasi-classical Lie algebras in low dimension, and showing the existence of non-reductive stable quasi-classical Lie algebras, we focus on the problem of obtaining sufficient conditions for a quasi-classical…
Degenerations, contractions and deformations of various algebraic structures play an important role in mathematics and physics. There are many different definitions and special cases of these notions. We try to give a general definition…
A simple procedure to obtain complete, closed expressions for Lie algebra invariants is presented. The invariants are ultimately polynomials in the group parameters. The construction of finite group elements require the use of projectors,…
The coefficient algebra of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra on a finite-dimensional representation is defined as the subalgebra generated by all coefficients of the corresponding characteristic polynomial. We explore connections between…
In an earlier work extensions of supersymmetry and super Lie algebras were constructed consistently starting from any representation $\D$ of any Lie algebra $\g$. Here it is shown how infinite dimensional Lie algebras appear naturally…
We construct characteristic identities for the split (polarized) Casimir operators of the simple Lie algebras in adjoint representation. By means of these characteristic identities, for all simple Lie algebras we derive explicit formulae…
A quadratic Lie algebra is a Lie algebra endowed with a symmetric, invariant and non degenerate bilinear form; such a bilinear form is called an invariant metric. The aim of this work is to describe the general structure of those central…
We determine all the contractions within the class of finite-dimensional real Lie algebras whose coadjoint orbits have dimensions $\le2$.
The contraction method in different limits to obtain 22 different realizations of kinematical algebras is applied to study the supersymmetric extension of \AdS\ algebra and its contractions. It is shown that $\frak{p}_2$ $\frak{h}_-$,…
We present a new look at description of real finite-dimensional Lie algebras. The basic element turns out to be a pair $(F,v)$ consisting of a linear mapping $F\in End(V)$ and its eigenvector $v$. This pair allows to build a Lie bracket on…
The coadjoint representation of a connected algebraic group $Q$ with Lie algebra $\mathfrak q$ is a thrilling and fascinating object. Symmetric invariants of $\mathfrak q$ (= $\mathfrak q$-invariants in the symmetric algebra $S(\mathfrak…
We establish results about the second cohomology with coefficients in the trivial module, symmetric invariant bilinear forms and derivations of a Lie algebra extended over a commutative associative algebra without unit. These results…
