The partition algebra is an associative algebra with a basis of set-partition diagrams and multiplication given by diagram concatenation. It contains as subalgebras a large class of diagram algebras including the Brauer, planar partition,…
We give a computer free proof of the Deligne, Cohen and deMan formulas for the dimensions of the irreducible $g$-modules appearing in the tensor powers of $g$, where $g$ ranges over the exceptional complex simple Lie algebras. We give…
We develop a noncompact version of the Hopf maps based on the split algebras. The split algebras consist of three species: split-complex numbers, split quaternions, and split octonions. They correspond to three noncompact Hopf maps that…
Frobenius' Theorem states that the algebra of quaternions $\mathbb H$ is, besides the fields of real and complex numbers, the only finite-dimensional real division algebra. We first give a short elementary proof of this theorem, then…
In this paper we present new formulas, which represent commutators and anticommutators of Clifford algebra elements as sums of elements of different ranks. Using these formulas we consider subalgebras of Lie algebras of pseudounitary…
A complete set of inequivalent realizations of three- and four-dimensional real unsolvable Lie algebras in vector fields on a space of an arbitrary (finite) number of variables is obtained.
From the four normed division algebras--the real numbers, complex numbers, quaternions and octonions, of dimension k=1, 2, 4 and 8, respectively--a systematic procedure gives a 3-cocycle on the Poincare superalgebra in dimensions k+2=3, 4,…
We find a first--order partial differential equation whose solutions are all ultralocal scalar combinations of gravitational constraints with Abelian Poisson brackets between themselves. This is a generalisation of the Kucha\v{r} idea of…
The notion of Poisson manifold with compatible pseudo-metric was introduced by the author in [1]. In this paper, we introduce a new class of Lie algebras which we call a pseudo-Rieamannian Lie algebras. The two notions are strongly related:…
The universal enveloping algebra $\mathscr{U}$ of a two-dimensional nonabelian Lie algebra $L$ is a Lie algebra itself with the commutator as Lie bracket. There exists a presentation of $\mathscr{U}$ with generators $x,y$ and relation…
We introduce the notion of Lie algebras with plus-minus pairs as well as regular plus-minus pairs. These notions deal with certain factorizations in universal enveloping algebras. We show that many important Lie algebras have such pairs and…
By considering the nilpotent Lie algebra with the derived subalgebra of dimension $ 2$, we compute some functors include the Schur multiplier, the exterior square and the tensor square of these Lie algebras. We also give the corank of such…
We define and describe simple complex Lie superalgbras of vector fields on "supercircles" - simple stringy superalgebras. There are four series of such algebras and four exceptional stringy superalgebras. The 13 of the simple stringy Lie…
Thin Lie algebras are Lie algebras over a field, graded over the positive integers and satisfying a certain narrowness condition. In particular, all homogeneous components have dimension one or two, and are called diamonds in the latter…
We introduce the notion of a Lie-like algebra$^{\diamond}$ (superalgebra$^{\diamond}$) for $\diamond\in\{^{1-st}, ^{2-nd}, ^{3-rd} \}$.
We introduce a new class of division algebras, the hyperpolyadic algebras, which correspond to the binary division algebras $\mathbb{R}$, $\mathbb{C}$, $\mathbb{H}$, $\mathbb{O}$ without considering new elements. First, we use the matrix…
We introduce the notion of $\lambda$-double Lie algebra, which coincides with usual double Lie algebra when $\lambda = 0$. We state that every $\lambda$-double Lie algebra for $\lambda\neq0$ provides the structure of modified double Poisson…
Classical r-matrices of the three-dimensional real Lie bialgebras are obtained. In this way all three-dimensional real coboundary Lie bialgebras and their types (triangular, quasitriangular or factorizable) are classified. Then, by using…
We derive a formula for the the modular class of a Lie algebroid with a regular twisted Poisson structure in terms of a canonical Lie algebroid representation of the image of the Poisson map. We use this formula to compute the modular…
We classify strongly homotopy Lie algebras - also called L-infinity algebras - of one even and two odd dimensions, which are related to $2|1$-dimensional $Z_2$-graded Lie algebras. What makes this case interesting is that there are many…
