Necessary or sufficient conditions are presented for the existence of various types of actions of Lie groups and Lie algebras on manifolds.

This is a brief overview of a few selected chapters on automorphism groups of affine varieties. It includes some open questions.

We give new applications of graded Lie algebras to: identities of standard polynomials, deformation theory of quadratic Lie algebras, cyclic cohomology of quadratic Lie algebras, $2k$-Lie algebras, generalized Poisson brackets and so on.

The index of a Lie algebra is an important invariant which arises in several areas, e.g. in the study of coadjoint orbits for a Lie group, in invariant theory and in representation theory. We study the index for several classes of nilpotent…

In recent years, the notion of characteristic polynomial of representations of Lie algebras has been widely studied. This paper provides more properties of these characteristic polynomials. For simple Lie algebras, we characterize the…

We introduce a new cohomology for Lie algebroids, and prove that it provides a differential graded Lie algebra which ``controls'' deformations of the structure bracket of the algebroid. We also have a closer look at various special cases…

Several open questions are discussed. The topics include cohomology of current and related Lie algebras, algebras represented as the sum of subalgebras, structures and phenomena peculiar to characteristic $2$, and variations on themes of…

This is a brief introduction to the study of growth in groups of Lie type, with $SL_2(\mathbb{F}_q)$ and some of its subgroups as the key examples. They are an edited version of the notes I distributed at the Arizona Winter School in 2016.…

In this article, we introduce the concepts of excision and idealization for a multiplicative Lie algebra (also for a Lie algebra), which provides two new multiplicative Lie algebras (or Lie algebras) from a given multiplicative Lie algebra…

We give a full classification of Lie algebras of specific type in complexified Clifford algebras. These sixteen Lie algebras are direct sums of subspaces of quaternion types. We obtain isomorphisms between these Lie algebras and classical…

In this paper we explore graded algebras of quotients of Lie algebras with special emphasis on the 3-graded case and answer some natural questions concerning its relation to maximal Jordan systems of quotients.

We present some new lower bound estimates for certain numbers in Laver table theory and introduce several related structures of interest.

In this note, we establish some new results on some special types of function algebras and also give new proofs to some existing ones

We develop a graphical notation to introduce classical Lie algebras. Although this paper deals with well-known results, our pictorial point of view is slightly different to the traditional one. Our graphical notation is fairly elementary…

In this paper, we present a study on the prolongations of representations of Lie algebras. We show that a tangent bundle of a given Lie algebra attains a Lie algebra structure. Then, we prove that this tangent bundle is algebraically…

We introduce and study a class of Lie algebroids associated to faithful modules which is motivated by the notion of cotangent Lie algebroids of Poisson manifolds. We also give a classification of transitive Lie algebroids and describe…

The goal of this paper is to consider some relations between varieties of representations of groups and varieties of associative algebras. The main emphasis is put on the varieties of representations of groups induced by the varieties of…

The notions of vertex Lie algebra and vertex Poisson algebra are presented and connections among vertex Lie algebras, vertex Poisson algebras and vertex algebras are discussed.

We exhibit explicit orthogonal decompositions of every multidimensional restricted root space of a real semi-simple Lie algebra. We then show a link between this result and a radiality property of smooth functions on G-homogeneous spaces…

These lecture notes in Lie Groups are designed for a 1--semester third year or graduate course in mathematics, physics, engineering, chemistry or biology. This landmark theory of the 20th Century mathematics and physics gives a rigorous…
