We present a special and attractive basis for the exceptional Lie algebra $G_2$, which turns $G_2$ into a $\mathbb{Z}_2^3$-graded Lie algebra. There are two basis elements for each degree of $\mathbb{Z}_2^3\setminus\{(0,0,0)\}$, thus…
In this paper we explore the Lie enveloping algebra of a post-Lie algebra derived from a classical $R$-matrix. An explicit exponential solution of the corresponding Lie bracket flow is presented. It is based on the solution of a post-Lie…
A generalization of the differential geometry of forms and vector fields to the case of quantum Lie algebras is given. In an abstract formulation that incorporates many existing examples of differential geometry on quantum groups, we…
A new application of polytope theory to Lie theory is presented. Exponential sums of convex lattice polytopes are applied to the characters of irreducible representations of simple Lie algebras. The Brion formula is used to write a polytope…
This is a companion article to my papers on Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials and character formulae for the Lie superalgebras gl(m|n) (much revised!) and q(n). The goal is to develop the general theory of tilting modules for Lie superalgebras,…
We present an effective algorithm for computing the standard cohomology spaces of finitely generated Lie (super) algebras over a commutative field K of characteristic zero. In order to reach explicit representatives of some generators of…
We introduce the class of split Lie-Rinehart algebras as the natural extension of the one of split Lie algebras. We show that if $L$ is a tight split Lie-Rinehart algebra over an associative and commutative algebra $A,$ then $L$ and $A$…
Decomposition classes provide a way of partitioning the Lie algebras of an algebraic group into equivalence classes based on the Jordan decomposition. In this paper, we investigate the decomposition classes of the Lie algebras of connected…
We study representations of the double affine Lie algebra associated to a simple Lie algebra. We construct a family of indecomposable integrable representations and identify their irreducible quotients. We also give a condition for the…
There are four division algebras over $\mathbb{R}$, namely real numbers, complex numbers, quaternions, and octonions. Lack of commutativity and associativity make it difficult to investigate algebraic and geometric properties of octonions.…
Given a representation V of a group G, there are two natural ways of defining a representation of the group algebra k[G] in the external power V^{\wedge m}. The set L(V) of elements of k[G] for which these two ways give the same result is a…
Each choice of a K\"ahler class on a compact complex manifold defines an action of the Lie algebra $\slt$ on its total complex cohomology. If a nonempty set of such K\"ahler classes is given, then we prove that the corresponding…
In this article, we use the theory of (non-abelian) exterior product of Hom-Lie algebras to prove the Hopf formula for these algebras. As an application, we construct an eight-term sequence in the homology of Hom-Lie algebras. We also…
An irreducible representation of a reductive Lie algebra, when restricted to a Cartan subalgebra, decomposes into weights with multiplicity. The first part of this paper outlines a procedure to compute symmetric polynomials (e.g., power…
The nonassociativity of the octonion algebra necessitates a bimodule representation, in which each element is represented by a left and a right multiplier. This representation can then be used to generate gauge transformations for the…
We show that the octonions can be defined as the $\mathbb{R}$-algebra with basis $\lbrace e^x \colon x \in \mathbb{F}_8 \rbrace$ and multiplication given by $e^x e^y = (-1)^{\varphi(x,y)}e^{x + y}$, where $\varphi(x,y) = \operatorname{tr}(y…
We explicitly construct families of simple modules for Lie algebras of rank $2$, on which certain commutative subalgebra acts diagonally and has a simple spectrum. In type $A$ these modules are well known generic Gelfand-Tsetlin modules and…
We adapt methods from the theory of complex semisimple Lie algebras to develop a root theory for a class of simple $\mathbb{Z}_2 \times \mathbb{Z}_2$-graded (color) Lie algebras, which we call basic. As an application, assuming that the…
Hom-Lie algebras are non-associative algebras generalizing Lie algebras by twisting the Jacobi identity by an endomorphism. The main examples are algebras of twisted derivations (i.e., linear maps with a generalized Leibniz rule). Such…
In this paper, we give a practical method to compute the Jacobian matrices of generalized Chebyshev polynomials associated to arbitrary semisimple Lie algebras. The entries of each Jacobian matrix can be expressed as a linear combination of…
