In this paper, all (super)algebras are over a field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic different from $2, 3$. We construct the so-called 5-sequences of cohomology for central extensions of a Lie superalgebra and prove that they are exact. Then…
A Lie (super)algebra with a non-degenerate invariant symmetric bilinear form will be called a NIS-Lie (super)algebra. The double extension of a NIS-Lie (super)algebra is the result of simultaneously adding to it a central element and an…
The symmetries provided by representations of the centrally extended Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{psl}(2|2)$ are known to play an important role in the spin chain models originated in the planar anti-de Sitter/conformal field theory…
We construct the universal central extension of the Lie algebra of exact divergence-free vector fields, proving a conjecture by Claude Roger from 1995. The proof relies on the analysis of a Leibniz algebra that underlies these vector…
The five simple exceptional complex Lie superalgbras of vector fields are described. One of them is new; the other four are explicitely described for the first time. All of the exceptional Lie superalgebras are obtained with the help of the…
We determine the Lie superalgebras over fields of characteristic zero that are graded by the root system A(n,n) of the special linear Lie superalgebra psl(n+1,n+1).
In this review paper, we present several results on central extensions of the Lie algebra of symplectic (Hamiltonian) vector fields, and compare them to similar results for the Lie algebra of (exact) divergence free vector fields. In…
This paper details the Leibniz generalization of Lie-theoretic results from Peggy Batten's 1993 dissertation. We first show that the multiplier of a Leibniz algebra is characterized by its second cohomology group with coefficients in the…
We show that the central charge $k$ reduction of the universal central extension of the elliptic Hall algebra is isomorphic to the trace, or zeroth Hochschild homology, of the quantum Heisenberg category of central charge $k$. As an…
If q : P -> M is a principal K-bundle over the compact manifold M, then any invariant symmetric V-valued bilinear form on the Lie algebra k of K defines a Lie algebra extension of the gauge algebra by a space of bundle-valued 1-forms modulo…
Let $p(t)\in\mathbb C[t]$ be a polynomial with distinct roots and nonzero constant term. We describe, using Fa\'a de Bruno's formula and Bell polynomials, the universal central extension in terms of generators and relations for the…
In this note, starting with any group homomorphism $f\colon\Gamma\to G$, which is surjective upon abelianization, we construct a universal central extension $u\colon U\twoheadrightarrow G,$ UNDER $\Gamma$ with the same surjective property,…
In this work the classification of filiform Leibniz superalgebras of nilindex $n+m,$ where $n$ and $m$ ($m \ne 0$) are dimensions of even and odd parts, respectively, is obtained.
In this paper, we study the existence and classification problems of left-symmetric superalgebras on special linear Lie superalgebras ${\mathfrak{sl}}(m|n)$ with $m\neq n$. The main three results of this paper are: (i) a complete…
The purpose of this paper is to show how central extensions of (possibly infinite-dimensional) Lie algebras integrate to central extensions of \'etale Lie 2-groups. In finite dimensions, central extensions of Lie algebras integrate to…
We present the description up to isomorphism of Leibniz superalgebras with characteristic sequence $(n|m_1,...,m_k)$ and nilindex $n+m,$ where $m=m_1+ >...+m_k,$ $n$ and $m$ ($m\neq 0$) are dimensions of even and odd parts, respectively.
There are three kinds of Lie superalgebras for each differentiable manifold. In this note, we shall show an application of the homology groups of those superalgebras in order to classify 4 dimensional Engel-like Lie algebras.
In this paper, we describe restricted one-dimensional central extensions of all finite dimensional simple restricted Lie algebras defined over fields of characteristic $p\ge 5$.
We prove that linear groups over rings of non-commutative Laurent polynomials $D_{\tau}$ have Tits systems with the corresponding affine Weyl groups and have universal central extensions if $|Z(D)|\geq 5$ and $|Z(D)|\neq 9$. We also…
After briefly reviewing the methods that allow us to derive consistently new Lie (super)algebras from given ones, we consider enlarged superspaces and superalgebras, their relevance and some possible applications.
