Lie Algebras Generated by Extremal Elements
1999
We study Lie algebras generated by extremal elements (i.e., elements spanning inner ideals of L) over a field of characteristic distinct from 2. We prove that any Lie algebra generated by a finite number of extremal elements is finite dimensional. The minimal number of extremal generators for the Lie algebras of type An, Bn (n>2), Cn (n>1), Dn (n>3), En (n=6,7,8), F4 and G2 are shown to be n+1, n+1, 2n, n, 5, 5, and 4 in the respective cases. These results are related to group theoretic ones for the corresponding Chevalley groups.

Star-products and phase space realizations of quantum groups
1992
It is shown for a family of *-products (i.e. different ordering rules) that, under a strong invariance condition, the functions of the quadratic preferred observables (which generate the Cartan subalgebra in phase space realization of Lie algebras) take only the linear or exponential form. An exception occurs for the case of a symmetric ordering *-product where trigonometric functions and two special polynomials can also be included. As an example, the ‘quantized algebra’ of the oscillator Lie algebra is argued.
The new results on lattice deformation of current algebra
2008
The topic “Quantum Integrable Models” was reviewed in the literature and presented to the conferences and schools many times. Only the reports of our own have been done on quite a few occasions (see, e.g., [1], [2]). So here we shall try to present a fresh approach to the description of the ingredients of construction of integrable models. It has gradually evolved in the process of our joint work. Whereas our goal was the Sugawara construction for the lattice affine algebra (known now as the St.Petersburg algebra), (see, e.g., [1]), some technical developments happen to be new and useful for the already developed subjects. Here we shall underline this development.
Semisimple Lie Algebras
1989
Let F be the field of real or complex numbers. A Lie algebra is a vector space g over F with a Lie product (or commutator) [·,·]: g × g → g such that $$x \mapsto \left[ {x,y} \right]\;is\;linear\;for\;any\;y \in g,$$ (1) $$\left[ {x,y} \right] =- \left[ {y,x} \right],$$ (2) $$\left[ {x,\left[ {y,z} \right]} \right] + \left[ {y,\left[ {z,x} \right]} \right] + \left[ {z,\left[ {x,y} \right]} \right] = 0.$$ (3) The last condition is called the Jacobi identity. From (1) and (2) it follows that also y ↦ [x,y] is linear for any x ∈ g. In this chapter we shall consider only fini te-dimensional Lie algebras. In any vector space g one can always define a trivial Lie product [x,y] = 0. A Lie algebra …
Indecomposable modules over the Virasoro Lie algebra and a conjecture of V. Kac
1991
We consider a class of indecomposable modules over the Virasoro Lie algebra that we call bounded admissible modules. We get results concerning the center and the dimensions of the weight spaces. We prove that these modules always contain a submodule with one-dimensional weight spaces. From this follows the proof of a conjecture of V. Kac concerning the classification of simple admissible modules.
Non-integrality of the PI-exponent of special Lie algebras
2013
If L is a special Lie algebra over a field of characteristic zero, its sequence of codimensions is exponentially bounded. The PI-exponent measures the exponential rate of growth of such sequence and here we give a first example of a special Lie algebra whose (upper and lower) PI-exponent is non-integer.
On the Codimension Growth of Finite-Dimensional Lie Algebras
1999
Abstract We study the exponential growth of the codimensions cn(L) of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra L over a field of characteristic zero. We show that if the solvable radical of L is nilpotent then lim n → ∞ c n ( L ) exists and is an integer.
LEFT INVARIANT COMPLEX STRUCTURES ON NILPOTENT SIMPLY CONNECTED INDECOMPOSABLE 6-DIMENSIONAL REAL LIE GROUPS
2007
Integrable complex structures on indecomposable 6-dimensional nilpotent real Lie algebras have been computed in a previous paper, along with normal forms for representatives of the various equivalence classes under the action of the automorphism group. Here we go to the connected simply connected Lie group G0 associated to such a Lie algebra 𝔤. For each normal form J of integrable complex structures on 𝔤, we consider the left invariant complex manifold G = (G0, J) associated to G0 and J. We explicitly compute a global holomorphic chart for G and we write down the multiplication in that chart.
Some criteria for detecting capable Lie algebras
2013
Abstract In virtue of a recent bound obtained in [P. Niroomand, F.G. Russo, A note on the Schur multiplier of a nilpotent Lie algebra, Comm. Algebra 39 (2011) 1293–1297], we classify all capable nilpotent Lie algebras of finite dimension possessing a derived subalgebra of dimension one. Indirectly, we find also a criterion for detecting noncapable Lie algebras. The final part contains a construction, which shows that there exist capable Lie algebras of arbitrary big corank (in the sense of Berkovich–Zhou).
