In this paper we describe central extensions (up to isomorphism) of all complex null-filiform and filiform Zinbiel algebras. It is proven that every non-split central extension of an $n$-dimensional null-filiform Zinbiel algebra is…
The paper concerns perfect diassociative algebras and their implications to the theory of central extensions. It is first established that perfect diassociative algebras have strong ties with universal central extensions. Then, using a…
We construct certain integral structures for the cores of reduced tame extended affine Lie algebras of rank at least 2. One of the main tools to achieve this is a generalization of Chevalley automorphisms in the context of extended affine…
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…
From a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ satisfying $\mathcal{Z}(\mathfrak{g})=0$ and $\Lambda^2(\mathfrak{g})^\mathfrak{g}=0$ (in particular, for $\g$ semisimple) we describe explicitly all Lie bialgebra structures on extensions of the form…
Motivated by the classical correspondence between short exact sequences and splitting properties in module theory, this paper examines the projective and injective analogues within the category of Lie algebras. We first show that no Lie…

We study symplectic (contact) structures on nilmanifolds that correspond to the filiform Lie algebras - nilpotent Lie algebras of the maximal length of the descending central sequence. We give a complete classification of filiform Lie…
We develop general results on centroids of Lie algebras and apply them to determine the centroid of extended affine Lie algebras, loop-like and Kac-Moody Lie algebras, and Lie algebras graded by finite root systems.
We study the Hall and composition algebras of an affine quiver. In the case of a cyclic quiver, we provide generators for the central polynomial algebra described by Schiffmann and prove that this is in fact the whole of the centre of the…
We classify nilpotent associative algebras of dimensions up to 4 over any field. This is done by constructing the nilpotent associative algebras as central extensions of algebras of smaller dimension, analogous to methods known for…
We complete the problem of finding the universal central extension in the category of Leibniz superalgebras of $\mathfrak{sl}(m, n, D)$ when $m+n \geq 3$ and $D$ is a superdialgebra, solving in particular the problem when $D$ is an…
In this paper, we provide a complete description of complex maximal solvable extensions for a certain class of nilpotent Lie algebras. In particular, we show that, up to isomorphism, a solvable extension of a $d$-locally diagonalizable…
We develop a general theory of $W$-algebras in the context of supersymmetric vertex algebras. We describe the structure of $W$-algebras associated with odd nilpotent elements of Lie superalgebras in terms of their free generating sets. As…
We study central extensions of the Lie superalgebra $sl_{m|n}(A)$, where $A$ is a $Z/2Z$-graded superalgebra over a commutative ring $K$. The Steinberg Lie superalgebra $st_{m|n}(A)$ plays a crucial role. We show that $st_{m|n}(A)$ is a…
We construct large families of characteristically nilpotent Lie algebras by considering deformations of the Lie algebra g_{m,m-1}^{4} of type Q_{n},and which arises as a central extension fo the filiform Lie algebra L_{n}. By studying the…
We study finite dimensional almost and quasi-effective prolongations of nilpotent Z-graded Lie algebras, especially focusing on those having a decomposable reductive structural subalgebra. Our assumptions generalize effectiveness and…
This paper studies the relationship between crossed modules of Lie algebras and their centres. We show that any crossed module \(\partial : L_1\to L_0\) of Lie algebras fits in an exact sequence involving cohomology of the homotopy Lie…
We investigate Chevalley bases for extended affine Lie algebras of type $A_1$.The concept of integral structures for extended affine Lie algebras of rank greater than one has been successfully explored in recent years. However, for the rank…
