In this work we introduce an obstruction for the existence of symplectic structures on nilpotent Lie algebras. Indeed, a necessary condition is presented in terms of the cohomology of the Lie algebra. Using this obstruction we obtain both…

We compare the maximal dimension of abelian subalgebras and the maximal dimension of abelian ideals for finite-dimensional Lie algebras. We show that these dimensions coincide for solvable Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field of…

We continue the study of the distribution of closed geodesics on nilmanifolds constructed from a simply connected 2-step nilpotent Lie group with a left invariant metric and a lattice. We consider a Lie group with an associated 2-step…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a real finite-dimensional Lie algebra equipped with a symmetric bilinear form $\langle\cdot,\cdot\rangle$. We assume that $\langle\cdot,\cdot\rangle $ is nil-invariant. This means that every nilpotent operator in the…

We associate a two-step nilpotent Lie algebra to an arbitrary Schreier graph. We then use properties of the Schreier graph to determine necessary and sufficient conditions for this Lie algebra to extend to a three-step nilpotent Lie…

A manifold is multisymplectic, or more specifically n-plectic, if it is equipped with a closed nondegenerate differential form of degree n+1. In our previous work with Baez and Hoffnung, we described how the `higher analogs' of the…

The connections between Euler's equations on central extensions of Lie algebras and Euler's equations on the original, extended algebras are described. A special infinite sequence of central extensions of nilpotent Lie algebras constructed…

For finite dimensional real Lie algebras, we investigate the existence of an inner product having a basis comprised of geodesic elements. We give several existence and non-existence results in certain cases: unimodular solvable Lie algebras…

This article can be viewed as a continuation of the articles arXiv:0912.3486 and arXiv:1012.3714 where the decomposable Lie algebras admitting half-flat SU(3)-structures are classified. The new main result is the classification of the…

In the present paper we prove the existence outer derivations finite-dimensional solvable Lie algebras with nilradical of maximal rank and complementary subspace to nilardical of dimension less than rank of the nilradical.

We study locally conformal calibrated $G_2$-structures whose underlying Riemannian metric is Einstein, showing that in the compact case the scalar curvature cannot be positive. As a consequence, a compact homogeneous $7$-manifold cannot…

In the present work we introduce notions such as $k$-solvability, $s$- and $K_1$-nilpotency and the corresponding radicals. We prove that these radicals are invariant under derivations of Leibniz $n$-algebras. The Frattini and Cartan…

The classification of Riemannian manifolds by the holonomy group of their Levi-Civita connection picks out many interesting classes of structures, several of which are solutions to the Einstein equations. The classification has two parts.…

The notion of symmetric Zinbiel superalgebras is introduced. We prove that the nilpotency index of a symmetric Zinbiel superalgebra is not greater than 4 and describe two-generated symmetric Zinbiel algebras and odd generated superalgebras.…

We derive the general formulas for a special configuration of the sequential warped product semi-Riemannian manifold to be Einstein, where the base-manifold is the product of two manifolds both equipped with a conformal metrics.…

We give new examples of compact, negatively curved Einstein manifolds of dimension $4$. These are seemingly the first such examples which are not locally homogeneous. Our metrics are carried by a sequence of 4-manifolds $(X_k)$ previously…

In this paper we begin to study the subalgebra lattice of a Leibniz algebra. In particular, we deal with Leibniz algebras whose subalgebra lattice is modular, upper semi-modular, lower semi-modular, distributive, or dually atomistic. The…

In this paper, the main objective is to compare the abelian subalgebras and ideals of maximal dimension for finite-dimensional supersolvable Lie algebras. We characterise the maximal abelian subalgebras of solvable Lie algebras and study…

We generalize a result on the Heisenberg Lie algebra that gives restrictions to possible Lie bialgebra cobrackets on 2-step nilpotent algebras with some additional properties. For the class of 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras coming from…
