Actions of complex Lie groups on analytic ?-algebras

On a reduced analytic .ℂ-algebraR there are faithful analytic actions of complex Lie groups of arbitrarily high dimension if and only ifR has Krull dimension ≥2.

Unitary units and skew elements in group algebras

2003

Let FG be the group algebra of a group G over a field F and let * denote the canonical involution of FG induced by the map g→g −1 ,gG. Let Un(FG)={uFG|uu * =1} be the group of unitary units of FG. In case char F=0, we classify the torsion groups G for which Un(FG) satisfies a group identity not vanishing on 2-elements. Along the way we actually prove that, in characteristic 0, the unitary group Un(FG) does not contain a free group of rank 2 if FG − , the Lie algebra of skew elements of FG, is Lie nilpotent. Motivated by this connection we characterize most groups G for which FG − is Lie nilpotent and char F≠2.

Irreducible finitary Lie algebras over fields of positive characteristic

2000

A Lie subalgebra L of [gfr ][lfr ][ ](V) is said to be finitary if it consists of elements of finite rank. We study the situation when L acts irreducibly on the infinite-dimensional vector space V and show: if Char [ ] > 7, then L has a unique minimal ideal I. Moreover I is simple and L/I is solvable.

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).

Lie nilpotence of group rings

1993

Let FG be the group algebra of a group G over a field F. Denote by ∗ the natural involution, (∑fi gi -1. Let S and K denote the set of symmetric and skew symmetric and skew symmetric elements respectively with respect to this involutin. It is proved that if the characteristic of F is zero p≠2 and G has no 2-elements, then the Lie nilpotence of S or K implies the Lie nilpotence of FG.

A restriction on the schur multiplier of nilpotent lie algebras

2011

An improvement of a bound of Yankosky (2003) is presented in this paper, thanks to a restriction which has been recently obtained by the authors on the Schur multiplier M(L) of a finite dimensional nilpotent Lie algebra L. It is also described the structure of all nilpotent Lie algebras such that the bound is attained. An important role is played by the presence of a derived subalgebra of maximal dimension. This allows precision on the size of M(L). Among other results, applications to the non-abelian tensor square L ⊗ L are illustrated.

Group algebras and Lie nilpotence

2013

Abstract Let ⁎ be an involution of a group algebra FG induced by an involution of the group G. For char F ≠ 2 , we classify the groups G with no 2-elements and with no nonabelian dihedral groups involved whose Lie algebra of ⁎-skew elements is nilpotent.
