Let $R$ be a commutative ring that is free of rank $k$ as an abelian group, $p$ a prime, and $SL(n,R)$ the special linear group. We show that the Lie algebra associated to the filtration of $SL(n,R)$ by $p$-congruence subgroups is…

Let $\mathcal{L}$ be finite dimensional restricted Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteritic $p>3$. A finite dimensional restricted $\mathcal{L}$-module $V$ is called Richardson if $V$ is faithful and there exists…

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…

All real three dimensional Poisson-Lie groups are explicitly constructed and fully classified under group automorphisms by making use of their one-to-one correspondence with the complete classification of real three-dimensional Lie…

For every field $F$ which has a quadratic extension $E$ we show there are non-metabelian infinite-dimensional thin graded Lie algebras all of whose homogeneous components, except the second one, have dimension $2$. We construct such Lie…

We consider finite-dimensional irreducible transitive graded Lie algebras $L = \sum_{i=-q}^rL_i$ over algebraically closed fields of characteristic three. We assume that the null component $L_0$ is classical and reductive. The adjoint…

Let G be a Lie group over a local field of positive characteristic which admits a contractive automorphism f (i.e., the forward iterates f^n(x) of each group element x converge to the neutral element 1). We show that then G is a torsion…

We revisit a recent paper of Fialowski and Iohara. They compute the homology of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{gl}(\infty,R)$ for $R$ an associative unital algebra over a field of characteristic zero. We explain how to obtain essentially the…

If G is a (connected) complex Lie Group and Z is a generalized flag manifold for G, the the open orbits D of a (connected) real form G_0 of G form an interesting class of complex homogeneous spaces, which play an important role in the…

We first recall two equivalent definitions of Lie $2$-algebras, categorification of Lie algebras and $2$-term $L_\infty$-algebras. Then we present four different kinds of Lie $2$-algebras from $2$-plectic manifolds, Courant algebroids,…

A Lie algebra $L$ is said to be $(\Theta_{n},sl_{n})$-graded if it contains a simple subalgebra $\mathfrak{g}$ isomorphic to $sl_{n}$ such that the $\mathfrak{g}$-module $L$ decomposes into copies of the adjoint module, the trivial module,…

We investigate Lie algebras whose Lie bracket is also an associative or cubic associative multiplication to characterize the class of nilpotent Lie algebras with a nilindex equal to 2 or 3. In particular we study the class of 2-step…

Using group actions and orbit-stabilizer methods, we study the geometry of isomorphism classes of finite-dimensional $\omega$-Lie algebras over a field $\mathbb{K}$ of characteristic $\neq 2$ and establish a one-to-one correspondence…

We construct explicitly groups associated to specific ternary algebras which extend the Lie (super)algebras (called Lie algebras of order three). It turns out that the natural variables which appear in this construction are variables which…

We prove that the group of automorphisms of the Lie algebra $\Der_K (P_n)$ of derivations of a polynomial algebra $P_n=K[x_1,..., x_n]$ over a field of characteristic zero is canonically isomorphic to the the group of automorphisms of the…

Let $\BB$ be the Lie algebra of Block type with basis $\{L_{\a,i}|\,\a,i\in\Z, i\geq0\}$ and relations $[L_{\a,i},L_{\b,j}]=\left((\a-1)(j+1)-(\b-1)(i+1)\right)L_{\a+\b,i+j}$. In the present paper, the derivation algebra and the…

This paper explores the properties of multiplicative Lie algebra structures on a nilpotent group of class $2$. We also present a method for determining a multiplicative Lie algebra structure on a group that serves as an extension of one Lie…

In this paper, we define a class of 3-algebras which are called 3-Lie-Rinehart algebras. A 3-Lie-Rinehart algebra is a triple $(L, A, \rho)$, where $A$ is a commutative associative algebra, $L$ is an $A$-module, $(A, \rho)$ is a 3-Lie…

The main goal is to classify 4-dimensional real Lie algebras $\g$ which admit a para-hypercomplex structure. This is a step toward the classification of Lie groups admitting the corresponding left-invariant structure and therefore…

Lie bialgebra structures on the extended affine Lie algebra $\widetilde{sl_2(\mathbb{C}_q)}$ are investigated. In particular, all Lie bialgebra structures on $\widetilde{sl_2(\mathbb{C}_q)}$ are shown to be triangular coboundary. This…
