Various aspects of the Nahm equations in 3 and 7 dimensions are investigated. The residues of the variables at simple poles in the 7-dimensional case form an algebra. A large class of matrix representations of this algebra is constructed.…

Nahm's equations are viewed in a more general context where they appear as a vector field on a moduli space of co-Higgs bundles on the projective line. Zeros of this vector field correspond to torsion-free sheaves on a singular spectral…

It is well-known that each left Leibniz algebra has a natural structure of a Lie-Yamaguti algebra. In this paper it is shown that every left representation of a left Leibniz algebra $(\mathfrak{g}, \cdot)$ induces naturally a representation…

A method of deriving solutions to Nahm's equations based on root structure of simple Lie algebras is given. As an illustration of this method the recently found solutions to Nahm's equations with tetrahedral and octahedral symmetries are…

The aim of this paper is to introduce and study Lie algebras and Lie groups over noncommutative rings. For any Lie algebra $\gg$ sitting inside an associative algebra $A$ and any associative algebra $\FF$ we introduce and study the algebra…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a finite dimensional complex Lie algebra and let $A$ be a finite dimensional complex, associative and commutative algebra with unit. We describe the structure of the derivation Lie algebra of the current Lie algebra…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a Lie algebra, $E$ a vector space containing $\mathfrak{g}$ as a subspace. The paper is devoted to the \emph{extending structures problem} which asks for the classification of all Lie algebra structures on $E$ such…

We explore the geometry of the Nahm-Schmid equations, a version of Nahm's equations in split signature. Our discussion ties up different aspects of their integrable nature: dimensional reduction from the Yang--Mills anti-self-duality…

Nahm sums are specific $q$-hypergeometric series associated with symmetric positive definite matrices. In this paper we study Nahm sums associated with symmetrizable matrices. We show that one direction of Nahm's conjecture, which was…

Let $\mathfrak g$ be a reductive Lie algebra, and $m$ a positive integer. There is a natural density of irreducible representations of $\mathfrak g$, whose degrees are not divisible by $m$. For $\mathfrak g=\mathfrak{gl}_n$, this density…

We exhibit a natural Lie algebra structure on the graded space of cyclic coinvariants of a symplectic vector space.

We study and classify Lie algebras, homogeneous spacetimes and coadjoint orbits ("particles") of Lie groups generated by spatial rotations, temporal and spatial translations and an additional scalar generator. As a first step we classify…

In this work we study quadratic Lie algebras that contain the Heisenberg Lie algebra $\h_m$ as an ideal. We give a procedure for constructing these kind of quadratic Lie algebras and prove that any quadratic Lie algebra $\g$ that contains…

In this work we state a result that relates the cohomology groups of a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and a current Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g} \otimes \mathcal{S}$, by means of a short exact sequence -- similar to the universal coefficients…

A morphism Lie algebra is a triple $(\mathfrak{g}, \mathfrak{h}, \phi)$ consisting of two Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}, \mathfrak{h}$ and a Lie algebra homomorphism $\phi : \mathfrak{g} \rightarrow \mathfrak{h}$. We define representations and…

Let $A$ be a unital commutative associative algebra over a field of characteristic zero, $\k$ be a Lie algebra, and $\z$ a vector space, considered as a trivial module of the Lie algebra $\g := A \otimes \k$. In this paper we give a…

We present a new look at description of real finite-dimensional Lie algebras. The basic element turns out to be a pair $(F,v)$ consisting of a linear mapping $F\in End(V)$ and its eigenvector $v$. This pair allows to build a Lie bracket on…

This paper is a discussion of relations between some free-boundary problems and infinite dimensional Lie groups; particularly a version of Nahm's equations for the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms in two dimensions.

We obtain a characterization of the real Lie algebras admitting abelian complex structures in terms of certain affine Lie algebras $\frak a \frak f \frak f (A)$, where $A$ is a commutative algebra. These affine Lie algebras are natural…

In this paper, first we show that $(\g,[\cdot,\cdot],\alpha)$ is a hom-Lie algebra if and only if $(\Lambda \g^*,\alpha^*,d)$ is an $(\alpha^*,\alpha^*)$-differential graded commutative algebra. Then, we revisit representations of hom-Lie…
