Lie algebras of dimension $n$ are defined by their structure constants , which can be seen as sets of $N = n^2 (n -- 1)/2$ scalars (if we take into account the skew-symmetry condition) to which the Jacobi identity imposes certain quadratic…
It is shown that the non-trivial cocycles on simple Lie algebras may be used to introduce antisymmetric multibrackets which lead to higher-order Lie algebras, the definition of which is given. Their generalised Jacobi identities turn out to…
Given a Lie group G whose Lie algebra is endowed with a nondegenerate invariant symmetric bilinear form, we construct a Poisson algebra of continuous functions on a certain open subspace R of the space of representations in G of the…
A 2-toroidal Lie superalgebra is constructed using bosonic fields and a ghost field. The superalgebra contains $osp(1|2n)^{(1)}$ as a distinguished subalgebra and behaves similarly to the toroidal Lie superalgebra of type $B(0, n)$.…
In this lecutre note, we consider infinite dimensional Lie algebras of generalized Jacobi matrices $\mathfrak{g}J(k)$ and $\mathfrak{gl}_\infty(k)$, which are important in soliton theory, and their orthogonal and symplectic subalgebras. In…
We prove that over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$ there are exactly, up to isomorphism, $n$ infinitesimal commutative unipotent $k$-group schemes of order $p^n$ with one-dimensional Lie algebra, and we explicitly…
All coboundary Lie bialgebras and their corresponding Poisson--Lie structures are constructed for the oscillator algebra generated by $\{\aa,\ap,\am,\bb\}$. Quantum oscillator algebras are derived from these bialgebras by using the…
We introduce higher-order (or multibracket) simple Lie algebras that generalize the ordinary Lie algebras. Their `structure constants' are given by Lie algebra cohomology cocycles which, by virtue of being such, satisfy a suitable…
A Lie algebra is said to be quadratic if it admits a symmetric invariant and non-degenerated bilinear form. Semisimple algebras with the Killing form are examples of these algebras, while orthogonal subspaces provide abelian quadatric…
Oscillator Lie algebras are the only non commutative solvable Lie algebras which carry a bi-invariant Lorentzian metric. In this paper, we determine all the Poisson structures, and in particular, all symmetric Leibniz algebra structures…
By definition the identities $[x_1, x_2] + [x_2, x_1] = 0$ and $[x_1, x_2, x_3] + [x_2, x_3, x_1] + [x_3, x_1, x_2] = 0$ hold in any Lie algebra. It is easy to check that the identity $[x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4] + [x_2, x_1, x_4, x_3] + [x_3,…
We obtain the classical r-matrices of two and three dimensional Lie super-bialgebras. We thus classify all two and three dimensional coboundary Lie super-bialgebras and their types (triangular, quasi-triangular, or factorable). Using the…
Starting from a purely algebraic procedure based on the commutant of a subalgebra in the universal enveloping algebra of a given Lie algebra, the notion of algebraic Hamiltonians and the constants of the motion generating a polynomial…
We consider the variety of pre-Lie algebra structures on a given n-dimensional vector space. The group GL_n(K) acts on it, and we study the closure of the orbits with respect to the Zariski topology. This leads to the definition of pre-Lie…
We construct the classical W-algebras for some non-abelian Toda systems associated with the Lie groups GL(2n,R) and Sp(n,R). We start with the set of characteristic integrals and find the Poisson brackets for the corresponding Hamiltonian…
The main aim of this paper is to classify the distinct multiplicative Lie algebra structures (up to isomorphism) on a given group. We also see that for a given group $G$, every homomorphism from the non-abelian exterior square $G \wedge G$…
Left invariant affine structures in a Lie group $G$ are in one-to-one correspondence with left-symmetric algebras over its Lie algebra $\mathfrak g=T_eG$ (``over'' means that the commutator $[x,y]=xy-yx$ coincides with the Lie bracket;…
A well known result of Drinfeld classifies Poisson Lie groups $(H,\Pi)$ in terms of Lie algebraic data in the form of Manin triples $(\mathfrak{d},\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{h})$; he also classified compatible Poisson structures on…
Given a hyperplane arrangement in a complex vector space of dimension n, there is a natural associated arrangement of codimension k subspaces in a complex vector space of dimension k*n. Topological invariants of the complement of this…
